What does india want?

2008-03-26T23:10:00.000+05:45

Everybody has impression that there will be election this time, but according to Janaastha, a vernacular weekly, India has really sent truck full of arms. The question here is does India want election like it is giving the impression or it does not want the CA election in Nepal.
One school of thought suggested that it wants the election like in Bhutan. Other said India doesnot want election nither it wants peace in Nepal. It wants to make Nepal its playground, and capture all the biggest river. So, in future Nepal will be dependent on India for Nepal's own rivers' produced electricity and irrigation.
Is there any Nepali leader, who has vision for this country or all are enjoying becoming Lendup Dorje ?

Is there anyone who wants to be president?

2007-10-11T12:00:00.000+05:45

After Ram Dev baba, the new face in the town is Shyam Sharan.
Shyam Sharan is here. He is special envoy of India and is engaged to finalise US-India nuclear deal. But why did he come to Kathmandu at a time when in India the deal is drawing much more critism from the left parties and the Indian government is under tremendious pressure. But Sharan, a busy diplomate came to Kathmandu.
Because, India wants to kick king. Why does India wants to kick the king, because the king did coup witout consulting them. If he had consulted India, India would have supported his move and till date king would have been ruling like Bhutani dictator and Burmese dictator. India doesnot want democracy in Bhutan and in Burma but India wants Nepal to be democratic and republic also. It should be very clear to Nepalese and the world that India doesnot want democracy anywhere in the world. If you have any doubt, ask Shiv Shanker Mukheerje.
Now, Shyam Sharan is in search of president. Yes, you heard it right, president. Is there anyone who wants to be president? Contact Indian embassy. You can sms to Indian embassy or Indian ambassador and apply. Shyam Sharan will choose president like Nepalese choose Indian idol last month. Now, its his turn.
The only criteria to be president is that you must inform Indian embassy, before you fart, shit, pee, do anything. Isn't it true Shyam or Shiv or Ram or Hanuman?

India urged to take a stand on Myanmar

2007-09-30T15:50:00.000+05:45

Though its not from Nepal and for Nepal but we support democratic struggle anywhere in the world. But some quaters remain quite. They claim to be democratic nation and try to interfare in other countries internal matters but in some cases they don't, isn't it diplomacy?

New Delhi: Hundreds of refugees from Myanmar on Friday took out a march in New Delhi to protest against the military crackdown on pro-democracy protesters in the neighbouring country and sought India's intervention in stopping the bloodshed. The protesters, including a large number of women and children, carried posters and photographs of jailed pro-democracy leader Aung San Suu Kyi and shouted slogans against Myanmar's ruling junta.
"The movement for restoration of democracy in Myanmar needs the solidarity of people across the globe," Neng Boi, a spokesperson for the refugees, told reporters after the peaceful march.
After the September 26 crackdown in Rangoon, India's external affairs ministry gave a guarded statement earlier this week, expressing concern over the recent turmoil in Myanmar at a time when people all over the globe are condemning the brutal attacks on the protesting monks.
"As a close and friendly neighbour, India hopes to see a peaceful, stable and prosperous Myanmar, where all sections of people will be included in a broad-based process of national reconciliation and political reform," an Indian foreign office statement had said.
The Myanmar refugees are disappointed with India's lukewarm response to the developments in their homeland.
"It is indeed shocking to find one of the world's largest democracies adopting a nuanced approach although we still expect India to take a bold stand," said Min Maung, an exiled Burmese student leader, who is now a correspondent for the BBS (Burmese Service) in New Delhi. He pointed out that even Communist China had come down heavily on the military crackdown on the pro-democracy movement.
New Delhi's diplomatic tightrope walking on the issue has been criticised by civil rights activists in India as well. "We cannot have democracy at home and support military tyrants in the neighbourhood. India must do all it can for the restoration of democracy in Burma," said Nandita Haksar, a prominent human rights lawyer.
Asian Centre for Human Rights, a New Delhi-based rights body, came out with an official statement that the Burmese junta deserved more denigration and the UN must not remain a mute spectator to the recent developments in Burma.
In separate statements, a group of Parliamentarians and religious leaders condemned the violence unleashed by the Myanmar government on protestors there and asked them to immediately release political prisoners, including Suu Kyi.
Political observers said India's cautious approach was dictated by its economic and strategic interests but conceded that this was bound to evoke criticism.
Until the mid-1990s, India was openly supporting pro-democracy leader Aung San Suu Kyi. It was only in 2004 that New Delhi changed track and welcomed military strongman Gen Than Shwe during his visit to the Indian capital.
India invited criticism from international communities recently when Petroleum Minister Murli Deora visited Myanmar on September 23 — the day that there were massive protests against the junta in the country — and signed three bilateral agreements for oil exploration.
India's Foreign Minister Pranab Mukherjee also found himself in an awkward position during an interactive session with the diplomats and intellectuals in Bangkok a week earlier when he was asked what India was doing to restore democracy in Burma. Mukherjee reiterated New Delhi's foreign policy of "non-interference in the internal matters of any country."

Two jokers in Nepali politics

2007-09-21T10:06:00.000+05:45

In current Nepali politics there are two prominent jockers; staright from the pack of cards. Though they both differ in ideology, cast, class and community. They have striking similarities.

They both are mentally ill. They cannot see anything, feel anything and accept anything. They are a remote operated robots and have the same remote control. They both blame unidentified groups for everything that is happening and happens.

Ask one of them about the petrol shortage, he claims that the unidentified groups are selling Nepali petrol in the borders and sending him hefty cheques. He has no clue why there is queue in Kathmandu for petrol. Enough petrol has been sent by the Indian Oil Corporation but where does that all oil leaks, he doesnot know. He even doesnot know who changed the Goyal and sent Jha as a director (?) in Nepal Oil Corporation. Why is Goyal changed, he doesnot know that either. He is a supply minister, a national jocker, who is interrested only in money-supply in his bank accounts.
He is supposed to be a leader of Terai and he doesnot know who are killing his own voters in Kapilvastu. He claims that unidentified groups killed people in hundreds in Kapilvastu.

Another jocker is yet more humourous. He is supposed to be the home minister. But he doesnot know who blasted bombs in Kathmandu and killed three. Who killed more than 100 people in Kapilvastu. Unidentified groups - is all his answers.

I suggest the government to sent these jockers to mental assylum. But they should be ministers, all the way: The ministers of mentally retartded.

Diktat: Constituent Assembly election

2007-08-19T09:20:00.000+05:45

If anyone has any doubt about the Constituent Assembly election, now they better so not have it. Because our friend has dictated that CA election must happen and no excuses will be accepted.
Any take the nationalist parties, Who is ruling this country? Is this intervention in the internal politics or not? i am far so, please loudly, I don't hear. Is this intervention in the internal politics or not?

Good News, Bad News

2007-07-17T10:13:00.000+05:45

One Good News:
ADB backed off, which a lots of high ranking politicians didnot accepted earlier. The Seven trent is gone. Now Nepalese should themselves manage the valley water supple. Lets not bring any foreigner to play in this peaceful country. They want to make it piece-ful not peaceful. Let's work for Nepal by Nepal to Nepal.

One Bad News:
Why is UNMIN conspiring against Maoists? and why James F Moriarty dropped a bombshell on the day he was leaving? The answer is simple. It's all Shyam Sharan syndrom. Who is this veteran Shyam Sharan? - Every Nepal knows.
He visited last week to Kathmandu and convinced Moriarty on Baby King, which is Indian agenda. And from Girija Koirala to Madhav Nepal they are all giving voice to Indian agenda. Moriarty joined this league, its no surprise.
The UNMIN also started conspiracy at the same time, which proves the Shyam Sharam syndrom more strongly. Shyam Sharan convinced the UNIMN chief, Ian Martin and he organised press conference accusing the Moists.
Lets be aware. The Indian agenda should not be successful.

US and India are dictators

2007-06-16T14:38:00.000+05:45

James Morairty is the US ambassador or India's ambassador?
This is a million dollar question people are asking after
reading the newspapers today.
Moriarty met the Bhutanese refugee leaders and forced them
to sign the already preapred statement. But the Bhutanese refugee
leaders, who had a great respect for the US and its democracy
were surprised, and not only surprised, they were let down by
the US ambassodor's behaviour. Is he acting on his own,
on his government's behalf, or on Indian government's behalf.
He wants to breed terrorists in Bhutan by making them desparate.
In this way they can blame the terrorists for not setteling the refugee issue.
But why?
Is the US a communist nation? NO
Is Moriarty himself a communist? NO
Who will gain from lengthening of Bhutanese refugee issue?
On whose behalf Mr US ambassador working?
The US ambassador said that the resettlement offer was based
on humanitarian concern for the well-being of the
Bhutanese refugees not for political reasons. But why can't the US pressure Bhutan to take
its people back? Who is standing in between
the synonynm of democracy and a dictator?

At the meeting yesterday, which was held on the backdrop
of growing criticism by refugee leaders that the
US was pushing for resettlement without adequately
pressuring the Bhutan government on repatriation,
Moriarty said that the US continues to support the
right of 'eligible refugees' to repatriate to Bhutan,
but why this new term 'eligible refugees', now?

He also called on all refugees to reject violence.
He himself is pushing the Bhutanese refugees to the violence
by ignoring their right ot freely return homeland through India,
from the way they came.

Is Moriarty Indian ambassador or US?
No soner the Bhutanes refugee leaders refused the US (Indian) diktatIndia
sealed eastern border to thwart refugees' home return drive. In what appears to be a preemptive move, India has sealed
its border with Nepal at three locations from Friday
citing the possibility of Bhutanese refugees going to
Bhutan by crossing over its territory.
While the Pashupatinagar checkpoint of eastern Ilam
has posted a notice stating the border has been sealed,
in Manebhanjyang and Chabbise checkpoint, however,
India has prohibited free cross-border movement of people
without a notice, according to reports.
This is the India democracy. Hail dictator India.

Although the return-home drive of the Bhutanese
refuges living in Jhapa and Morang
camps have been postponed for the time being,
the Indian side has sealed its border with Nepal
at some checkpoints citing the possibility of them
going to Bhutan by taking the Indian route singly or in pairs.

Can Maoists run trolley bus?

2007-05-29T18:00:00.000+05:45

Our nationalist Maoists friends talk
of self dependecncy. Now can they
operate the trolley bus, which is a
better alternative for the petrol-crunch
Nepal. Can our comrades learn to be
industrious?
Only then their philosophy will help them.
There is Hetauda Textile mill also that
the government is selling. Can Maoists
Comrades start that factroy and increse
the employment opportunity. It is easy to
shut down a factory, but can Maoists
operate these two very essential organisations,
If so, they can save a lot of money of this
country from going outside and Nepal can be
independent.
All the friendly factories and operations that
our friendly neighbour China has gifted us
is destroyed, if Maoists can operate trolley bus
and make profit fromn that, it will be a good
neighbour's gesture also and at the same time a
better alternative for fuel-crunch country like
Nepal. Maoists can even extend the trolley bus
around the ring road also. It can
help build the image also, only planting tree will
not help, Comrades.
Comrade Prachanda
and Comrade Baburam are you listening?

Indian chopper and Chinese plane

2007-05-29T17:47:00.000+05:45

It is again the same old story. First India
cheated Nepal in the name of helping with
choppers that was useless witin a month.
Now its turn of Chinese plane that Nepal
doesnot want but is paying for it.
Isnot it the time to punish those, who
signs such bilateral purchasing deals
that the country is cheated afterwards.
Why is it always after two or in the case
of Melamchi after ten years we come to know
the unwanted clauses of any agreement?
Let's dig out all such treaties that Nepal
has been cheated and hold responsible
for the minister for signing all-unethical
treaties in the name of Nepal, in the cost
of Nepal. Is any journo listening,
who signed the Melanchi deal,
punish him and punish him also
who signed the plane deal.
This is the only way to stop such
miscreants for helping to cheat
Nepal and Nepali.
Help punish Frauds ! Help develop Nepal !

ADB's threatening and Hisila Madam's solution

2007-05-09T21:01:00.000+05:45

Asian Development Bank (ADB) has warned of pulling
out of Melamchi project after Minister for Works and
Physical Planning Hishila Yami wrote a letter to the
Kathmandu Valley Drinking Water Limited expressing
the government's inability to sign management
contract for valley water distribution.
Yami wrote that the government does not wish
to go for management contract for the time being.
The ADB, when it agreed to provide loan assistance
of $140 million to the project, had had the precondition
that valley's water distribution management
should be handed over to foreign private sector company.

Now the million dollor question is who has signed
that contract then, who was finance minister,
finance secretary, and minister for physical
planning and his secretary. Shouldn't they
be hold responsible for accepting such a
precondition. Why did they accept that
precondition, for how much money or
if they are honest, what is their logic behind
accepting to privatize the water distribution system
(though some claim that it is not privatization.)

Can Hisila punish those officials and ministers
who signed such a regressive agreement?
So, the water mafias and hydro mafias will also
learn the lesson that they will also be punished
one day, if they sign any such agreement and gulp
millions of dollors of commission at the cost of Nepal.
Why not start this campaign to punish corrupts,
who has benefitted foreign companies and
foreigners at the cost of Nepal and Nepali people.

The cabinet had approved awarding
the contract to a British company Severn Trent.
Can Hisila Yami alone fight for Nepal and Nepali?
Can Maoists fight for Nepal and Nepali?
Are they fighting for Independent Nepal?
a Sovereign Nepal?

Why did World Bank pull
itself out of Arun III and now all the leading
newspapers are praising GMR? How much
commission has GMR paid to finance minister
(he was not invited at SAARC
he has just gone to New Delhi to collect commission)
and to journalists? Is there any gurantee that
they are honest and will remain honest? We
have an example of UTL, that has gulped
millions of tax in Royal regime by bargaining
and still bargains time and again claiming
to be a professional organization. We have bitter
experiences with such companies, which seems very
beneficial to Nepal at first and start showing
the real colour and class after one year.
Is there anything called transparency?

Keichi Tamaki, an ADB official, has warned
that failure to sign management
contract would lead to revocation of the bank's
assistance to the project.
How can he threaten Nepal government?

The recently ended ADB's meeting has discussed
that ADB is taking advantages from the
underdeveloped country and benefit big and rich
Asian countries, Afghan finance minister openly
ctitizised ADB for such injustice.

Press Freedom Day

2007-05-03T21:51:00.000+05:45

Today Nepali journalists marked the
International Press Freedom Day.
They organised a rally in the morning
and in the afternoon, various organisations
organised different programmes.
FNJ published its report at the BICC.
But from today evening Nepal One
TV journalists are starting
another round of protest against
the management. They are fighting for
editorial freedom and other rights for last 14 days.
They have submitted memorandum to
communication minister Krishna Bahadur Mahara,
the Speaker Subash Nembang, even the Prime Minister
Girija Prasad Koirala. But nobody has the
solution to their problem.
Someone suggested them to even meet
Indian ambassador Mukherjee,
but the problem is still not solved.
It shows that Nepali journalists are
yet to be freed.
The government must make it clear
who the investors of Nepal One TV are.
It should be registered in Nepal, if it wants
to continue. It will otherwise also effect another
Indian newspaper that is published from Kathmandu.
The government must make the
foreign investment (FDI) in media transparent and legal,
otherwise the journalists will continue to suffer.
.................................................

It is high time that government
intervene in this matter and ask
the management of Nepal One
to either register in Nepal or quit.
Maoists silence in this matter is
quite surprising. It seems they do
not want to meddle with the
Indian establishment. But if any
Indian company is fraud or does
anything wrong according to the
Nepali law it should be punished,
and only the relationships between
India and Nepal can remain
warm and cordial.
Otherwise, such incidents will
only increase anti-Indian sentiments
in Nepal. Indian embassy in Kathmandu,
is equally responsible in increasing
anti-Indian sentiments in Nepal
by supporting such illegal opeartions
and business. The relationship can
be stronger, only if embassy stops
supporting such activities
of Indian companies in Nepal.
Support Nepali journalists fight for right,
editorial freedom and dignity.
