Indian Time

Indian Time

Use of the phrase 'Indian Time' what do you think of this?
Indian Time: Signifying a disregard for Anglo-style punctuality.
I've always heard this as a negative
I don't think this is good thing. A level of disrespect is put upon the host of a start time, for whatever the event.
Having a set schedule is not a 'White' thing, nor a 'Red' thing, it is a schedule set by an individual to allow them to accommodate the other things in there, day, month, year, life!
The time has past when we purposely disregard a schedule put upon us by a Anglo, simply for the reason of rebellion.
Not withstanding the issues of our past as a people stripped of our individuality as human beings, we know enough to to be respectful of another, regardless,   
the skin colour.
