    ticken die Uhren anders

    Sources

    Der ganze Satz lautet:
    In Indien ticken die Uhren anders

    Das ist der Titel eines Artikels, wobei der Autor die riesige Unterschiede zwischen der Deutschen und Indischen Kultur- Zeitgefuehl, Arbeitsmethode (betreffend Outsourcing)verdeutlicht hat.

    My attempt:
    In India do as the Indians do?
    This is more an interpretation, but somehow not satisfied with this. Can someone come up with a brainwave? :)

    This may be completely wrong but here goes!

    "Beats to a different drum"

    but I'm not sure if this would be taken too negitive.

    just a thought.

    Its proving to be really difficult to get a title that conveys the exact- or similar meaning

    How about "Indians sing a different tune"

    Jill thanks for your suggestion, will google it and check

    @jill - the correct phrase is "marches to the beat of a different drum(mer)"

    I like the one that RiKo suggested from out of the forum "here life proceeds at a different pace"
