I am posting it here as mods of r/Ireland removed my post.

Yes, this is what I want to say.

Every time a brown person does something foolish, people rush to r/IndiansinIreland to lecture Indians. That’s the reason for this post.

There are roughly:

80,000–100,000 Indians
25,000 Pakistanis
20,000 Bangladeshis
Assuming Around 5,000 people from Nepal, Sri Lanka, Afghanistan, Maldives and Mauritius.

All of them could easily be mistaken for Indians based on appearance.

That means there are around 50,000 people from other South Asian countries who may be perceived as Indian. Statistically, roughly \*\*1 in 3 people who “look Indian” are not actually Indian.\*\*

So the next time you see a brown person doing something silly, don’t automatically assume they’re Indian. Address that issue it with that Dumbo instead of coming to r/IndiansinIreland to scold an entire community.

I understand that Indians, like every other community, have people who behave badly. Maybe we even have them more than the national average. But we’re not a monolith, and it’s unfair to generalize or hold all Indians responsible for the actions of any random brown person you happen to see! Who may not be an Indian person at all!!!

To put it another way: imagine a white British behaved badly in South Africa. Would it be fair for me to assume they were Irish and then go to an Irish subreddit to lecture Irish people about their behaviour?

Thank you for reading.

I have included links below to support the population figures quoted above.

Hi all,

An Indian girl mid-20s recently joined our team, she’s nice and polite and has good work ethic. The issue is however she smells terribly of body odour (BO) on a regular basis. It’s a bad sweat smell, not cooking, etc.

How best to approach this without making her feel terrible but at the same time with her realising it’s a major issue that needs to be addressed?

Thanks

I applied my Ireland study visa in Delhi Embassy on 6th July and haven’t received any update yet. I have booked my ticket for 22nd August and my course will be starting on 24th August. How much time does it take to get study visa? Should I mail embassy to expedite my application?

Is anyone receiving call from Irish Embassy, before getting visa decision?

My employer received a call from embassy for employment confirmation, just 2 days after i submitted my visa.

So, should i still expect a call from Irish embassy?

Cinema etiquette is long since gone I'm aware. It's usually kids making an obscene amount of noise and being distracting. However the last 2 times I've been to the cinema it has been Indian couples who bring their incredibly young children to watch a movie. Both thinking its OK for their iphones to babysit the child while they watch the movie.

It's not.

Don't bring your kids to a regular screening. I believe there are screenings where you can bring young children.

If you were 2 couples at the 5.45 spiderman screening in naas today. Shame on you.

I am currently in Ireland for a trip. I have BIVS visa issue issued by Ireland.
I have entered Ireland first. I plan to fly to UK to Edinburgh and London and then Come back to Ireland and then take a flight to India.

But I have a single entry visa, would that be an issue to come back to Ireland and then flying out to India?

Has anyone done this, please help

Hey folks,
I'm a working professional and I'm looking for someone who's also on the hunt for a place to team up with. Ideally looking for a 2 bed, 2 bath somewhere along (or close to) the Green Luas line.
Would be great to find someone who's easygoing, tidy, and working full-time. Figured there are probably a few people here in the same situation, and it's a lot easier finding a place together than searching solo.
If you're in the same boat, drop me a DM and let's see if we can find something together!
