wanted error free codes

IT is making big news these days.India has emerged as the world's backoffice/frontoffice.It made big splash in Davos occupying centre stage and lecturing to the world how to conduct their business!One remembers not too long ago, we used to be apolegetic about our Indian passports.We were treated badly in international airports and that insult stuck. Now Indians are in great demand for their IT skills alongwith others.
Hence I was surprised to read statistics put out by Microsoft that Indians need to upgrade their 'coding' skills.Indians are 10 times more "error prone" while coding than their western counterparts.It goes on to say, Indians have 10 lines of error per 100 lines of code.
Assuming that this statistics is valid, i was wondering what could be the root cause for this level of lack of skill. Is it that we are scratching at the bottom of the skill tank among our employable population and hence come up with more errors?Is it that we are not very organised, so are used to making errors?Taking it a step further, are we also quick in correcting them and proceed further and give the desired outcome in the same time as westerners who would go about it in an organised fashion and arrive at the outcome in the same time?
Indians are naturally good in working in disorder and chaos more than in organised environment. It has to do with making do with less than perfect environment and is called upon to produce results nevertheless.It has to do with multitasking.Indians are adept at this, whereas it is said that an average American cannot blow his nose and walk at the same time!If he feels like sneezing, he stops on his tracks and sneezes and then proceeds.
Perhaps when an Indian is coding, some friend nearby disturbed him on a problem confronting him.We dont believe in doing one thing at a time and that done well syndrome.
Look at a typical bank clerk and now with multitasking and technology availability, everyone does every job necessary for customer interface.I noticed today morning, a customer was asking about his balance as he is expecting a cheque to be presented, another was thrusting his passbook for updation, third(that is me)was asking for retrieving passbooks deposited the previous day,simultaneously an employee perquisite matter was put forth by her neighbour,and her system was not booting, and she was asking the IT guy to come to her rescue.One is prone to err in such an environment.
With our colleges churning out graduates by the million, it is a serious issue that the industry feels only 20 percent of technical graduates and 10 percent of other graduates are employable!
Maybe we need finishing schools/institutes to perfect and round off the education imparted by colleges. But then I remember colleges were originally meant to do that!
