Key issues to succeed in colonizing/dominating a country or a community

The attached photograph includes Lord Macaulay’s address to the British Parliament on February 2, 1835 in regard to what British should do to succeed in colonizing India. Following I include an extract of it:

” (…) I propose that we replace her old ancient education system, her culture, for if the Indians think that all that is foreign and English is good and greater than their own, they will  lose their selfesteem, their native culture and they will beecome what we want them, a truly dominated nation” (Bold emphasis mine).
