While a number of world leaders are upset with the United States as their phone calls had been intercepted by the US National Security Agency (NSA), Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh must be very relaxed.

Reason? According to news reports, Singh does not have a personal mobile phone or e-mail account. But this is not the case with other leaders. German Chancellor Angela Merkel’s is among those leaders whose phone was being tapped. The recent revelations have seen many politicians losing their cool. Many countries are sending their officials to Washington to record their protest.

While most of the world’s powerful capitals are fuming, we don’t hear any hue and cry from Britain. — Masood Khan, Jubail
