Here I go again... - 23-06-2005, 11:00 PM

Byung-Chull Lee's business, started in 1938, initially focused on exporting dried Korean fish, vegetables and fruit to Manchuria and Beijing. In over a decade, it had its own flour mills and confectionery machines. Which company are we referring to?

Who said this in a media interview: "I got into St. Stephen's on the sports quota because I was a good cricketer ... But after college, with nothing particular in mind, I went off to Kolkata because my friend Arun Lal said I should join him in a tea fi rm. Piggy (as Arun was better known in college) had moved to Kolkata and was playing for Bengal then. So, I took up his offer and became a tea-taster."

The currency of which country is zloty, literally meaning 'golden'? (The modern zloty was introduced in 1924 after the hyperinflation post-World War I. It replaced the country's currency 'mark,' which had been around for eight years.)

Who is the brand ambassador of both Godrej Consumer Products and Bausch & Lomb?

Allied Domecq wants to revive the fading Canadian Club whisky, and for that it has unveiled a strategy wherein 10 lucky winners of a programme will have a chance to compete alongside champion Chris Moneymaker for a multi-million dollar purse. Chris is a leading player in which 'sport'?

The 'Look Mom, No Cavities' ad campaign for Crest was famous but couldn't substantially help improve the fortunes of the toothpaste brand launched in 1955. But the "breakthrough" came in 1960, which made Crest the leader for years to come. What happene d that year?

Written by Steven Levitt and Stephen Dubner, the book's baseline reads, 'A Rogue Economist Explores the Hidden Side of Everything.' Which book?

keep quizing...

Following protests from business leaders and unions, the British Government decided not to go ahead with the proposal to change the name of the Department of Trade and Industry. Which two words, separated by a comma, were proposed in the place of 'Trad e'?

The weekly Economist compiles two indexes based on the concept of purchasing-power parity. One is the Big Mac index, which compares the prices of the McDonald's burger around the world. The second is the 'tall latte index.' What does it compare?

Which Indian company has joint ventures and alliances with organisations such as Babcock & Wilcox, Kawasaki Thermal Engineering Company, Eco Tech, Honeywell, Bloom Engineering, Struthers Wells and Ozone Systems?

The chief of Mirna Voda, a mineral water company in Zagreb which has launched a brand called 'Titoz Izvor,' said about the name: "It has nothing to do with politics. It is purely a marketing move which could help us make a breakthrough in a rather satu rated market." What's with the name?

About what did Warren Buffett refer to when he wrote this: "From 1733 to 1758, Ben Franklin dispensed useful and timeless advice through Poor Richard's Almanack. Among the virtues extolled were thrift, duty, hard work, and simplicity. Subsequently, two centuries went by during which Ben's thoughts on these subjects were regarded as the last word. Then Charlie Munger stepped forth."

Kleenex and Huggies are brands of which company?

In 1993, a Director at this Ahmedabad-based pharma company, while travelling in interior Gujarat, saw deep cracks in the heels of women working in the fields. "Some of them had difficulty in walking and the mud, stones and dirt aggravated the problem." Which product was created based on this experience?

Happy Quizing...

PS: I think Tara would come roaring... beAware guys
