Yes.
Americans follow
fps – foot-pound-seconds
Length – Weight- Time
MKS – Meter- Kilograms- Seconds is follwed by many and considersed
by the scientific community as easy to use and implement.
Even in mappinging and survey they use fps. The managers, decision makers are comfortable with that system.
We ( asians )are comfortable with both systems. We work like work horses. We know many languages. English is just one of them.
They say we have MTI !
Our english is better than most americans.
Our technical capabilities are great.
We are stuck with CAPITAL back logs
Unnecessary socio-cultural problems
leading to over dependence on them.
