Dear Prime Minister
@kpsharmaoli
Can we have an open debate on a virtual platform on the issue of lockdown with you and your folks.
Pluralism is cornerstone of democracy
Your team can choose time and platform, keep it an open one!
Hope

leaders are watching events unfolding in US closely.
#Nepal
with 50% population under 25 and 70% under 35 ruled by 2% men above 65 in most spheres is a ticking time bomb without a timer.
The government can only blame themselves if this explodes
It's amazing how in
#Nepal
people after retirement submit reports on what the government should do. Keep wondering what they were doing when they were in key bureaucratic positions.
Call for ban on Nepalis studying outside to push protectionism by an investor investing in education in Nepal reflects the deep hypocrisy in Nepali society. You study outside Nepal but others should not.
Not re-appointing
#KulmanGhishing
for another term at NEA would be a signal from the current government that it does not like people who perform and clear indication to international development partners and investors that the government is in no way mood to mend it ways.
Bureaucrats, politicians, academics, development practitioners, business people in

perhaps these two set of youth never cross each other's path

Keep wondering why government give free land if it is to build ugly commercial structure to earn rent.
श्रीलंकाको समस्या नेपालको भन्दा भिन्न छ.
भारतीय मिडियाले चीनको मात्र कुरा गर्छन
समस्या जापान को ऋण र युरोपमा जारी गरेको बोन्डले गर्दा पनि ल्याएको हो
कोरोनाकालमा मुसलमान समुहलाई दोष लगाएको झैँ चीनको मात्र कुरा गर्न भएन

- Swarnim Wagle will never become Finance Minister. He will nt approve allocation of money to buy arms in last minute fund raising. He will not be useful to raise money for the party.
In Nepal there are different parameters set to be eligible to become Finance Minister
Another great initiative from

Silver base and gold plated. Perfect design and great craftsmanship that reflects the standards of governance.
The diamond is missing, else would have been just awesome.

Nepal is a $40 billion economy.
Few million dollar investments and four hundred million outflow makes super headlines.
I continue to write about lack of research and analysis in economic news
It's interesting Nepalis who actually planned having children abroad during their years of education or scholarships or work or government postings and gave their children foreign passports actually make noise for a stringent Nepal citizenship law.
#hypocrisy
Simple question
@SumanaShrestha
is asking.
How can indisciplined parliamentarians who do not care about rules, system, timings and structure actually deliver good governance?
Hope more first time parliamentarians will support her in asking those questions again and again.
Nepal Government earns NPR 14 billion in taxes from stock market transactions in 2020/2021. In 2006/07 fifteen years ago the overall volume of transaction in stock market was just NPR 8.36 billion.
#HappySaturday
We are fine with spending millions if dollars in importing fruits, but prohibit foreign investment to produce locally. The cartels and super cartels find trading very lucrative and will block any reforms.
What a beautiful sight, if we just need a bit of effort from all of us. We do not need a new constitution to do this neither 14,000 people have to die in a revolution for this.

What is a use of having a stable government with two thirds majority when there is weak governance and cannot handle crisis.
I am always reminded of Robert Mugabe who also led a very stable government for 37 years!

Our politics is entangled like this. It gets worse as more dimensions are added. We watch, we complain and we move on. It surprisingly works. Surely needs sweeping changes to transform.

Dear members of Indian media and security in

. Learn from past lessons. Your Prime Minister is visiting another country not another state in your country. Be mindful of that.
Like vehicles, now for mobile phones in

People who invite the

to inaugurate programs should think twice as the amount of money that gets spent on deploying thousands of police and economic losses of long stoppages and disruption of traffic is huge!
we are not small

India and majority of Indians have not been able to understand their own Northeast. How will they understand Nepal and Nepalis.
Thank you for keeping the dignity of our small nation..we all are looking forward for a peaceful and respectful dialogue between all three great nations now 🙏

to understand, remittance from Nepal to India is USD 3 billion! Its mutual dependency not onesided.
In

you cannot afford to be successful.
Once you are successful everyone wants you out.
Jealous people galore rejoice.
Personal reflections as
#KulmanExits
Discussions should also start on whether
#Nepali
nationals should go and be part of
#Indian
Army and other armies. The era of merceneries in uniform should end. Convert that to building company that can provide private security services worldwide. More remittances that way!

People in

open shops without understanding markets or trends
People build houses/buildings to rent out without understanding demand and existing supply
People take loans without figuring out how to pay back.
These people then tell the world there is crisis.
We need more voices like

across partylines to articulate in a way the world understands. And for

constant reminder it's dealing with folks they don't know and they don't know much about

#socialboycotts

Yes let's look at basics. Important issue raised in 33 years of parliamentary democracy.
Timing for parliamentarians, loo breaks, refreshment breaks etc. Basic disciplinary issues.
Seems the sub-cartel of the vehicle dealer cartel who do not sell
#electricVehicles
prevailed and ensured that
#EV
gets taxed also. Once all cartel members will sell
#EV
, they will then lobby to remove the taxes. Learning about interesting stories of lobbying during budget.
We want a President who
- will not demand to stand in the same place as erstwhile Kings
- will agree to travel with lesser fanfare
- will be a good communicator
- will have an interest that can be beneficial in inspiring young people
- will not like to play political games
The silence of international organizations on the Finance Minister issue reflects how
#corruption
does not matter now for them. It does not matter what the public opinion may be.
Nepal stock market takes a tumble.
New retail investors will take a hit as old HNI investors have already profited more than $ 2 billion that has pushed real estate prices.
A market that is not based on fundamentals always crashes!
The movie
#Super30
is powerful. It portrays the reality of education business and characters do resemble the ones we know in

as education business cartels are ruining the future of the nation.
Spending your peak years of life outside Nepal and then returning to Nepal lecturing on protectionism, anti-secularism, furthering patriarchy, pushing back panchayat style one Nepal identity has been hallmark of many NRN

Manisha Koirala
@mkoirala
, says that ‘a city is incomplete without a good library’ She lamented that Nepal has not been able to convert some historical buildings—and we have so many—into libraries, as many other countries have.
When you see videos coming out of Sri Lanka, Nepalis should be happy every transition of power has been peaceful.
Leaders also should learn that its possible people can storm in like this, so don't take the people for granted.
If there was economic crisis, where is the money coming to buy vehicles. How there is so much of traffic jam when people are spending money on fuel. Teej parties are in full swing. Dasian travel tickets going through the roof. Wondering!
In case studies of how countries handled the
#pandemic
,
#Nepal
will go down as a country that had little problems but created a big one for itself by mismanaging quarantine centers and turning people into biological weapons to spread. 1/2
All who harp upon B P Koirala, just remember he was just 37 years old when was appointed Home Minister
38 years old when he took up Nepali Congress Presidency and 45 years old when he became Prime Minister! So bring young people to lead party!
So tax deadlines now 7 June?
How people who rely on public transportation, having challenges managing daily lives submit tax returns and deposit taxes.
How insensitive the Finance Minister can be?
How can a country think big when Finance Minister and Central Bank Governor still thinks inaugurating bank branches is still a big job. Time to behave like a $ 30 billion economy.
