Western education

rst came to Ladakhivillages in the 1970s.

The basic curriculum isa poor imitation of that

taught in other partsof India, which itself isan imitation of British

education.

There is almost nothingLadakhi about it...most

of the skills Ladakhichildren learn in schoolwill never be of real useto them... they receivea poor version of an

education appropriatefor a New Yorker...

they learn out of bookswritten by people who

have never set foot

in Ladakh, who knownothing about growingbarley at 12 000 feet

or about making housesout of sun-dried bricks.
