Dear Yangdu didi,



Sorry for late reply yesterday I am facing some technical problem here.

Regarding for situation of Nepal still as it is, because after election also same government rules the country. For developing the new government political party are under process. Main problem was after election result Maoist were the leading party their system and police were not accepted by other party but they are trying hard to develop mutual-understand between each other and give the new government for the country soon.



On coming Wednesday 28th May going to big decision day for King of Nepal. That day Parliament going to decide whether the king should keep on or go away?

But Maoist was already noticed and wants to depart king from the palace (Narahiti Durbar)if he not moves easily they will force him.



So didi that is the current situation of Nepal but hopping that all these matter will solve soon and will have the new government.



For material supply if we wait for a month (up to new Gov.) will be better.





Thank you,

Rajesh
 
Much smoke going up for Nepal and her people.
 
Lady Liberty weeps for the people of Nepal... God bless and prayers to your brothers and sisters Yangdu.
 
I foresee great bloodshed. The Maoists will do what communists do and try to take control of all aspects of the people's lives, businesses and eventually religion. Religion is antithetical to communism, it empowers and gives people hope in an authority other than the state. It provides a moral compass that defies politics. It unites people around a concept other than the motherland. Where communism in theory provides material needs for the here and now, and more often than not fails, religion offers a sense of salvation and immortality. I would expect the Maoists will move against the Temples in time just as the Chinese moved against the Buddhists... either that or they will attempt to usurp control of the Temples much as the Chinese attempted to do with the Catholic churches in China - going so far as to name their own Bishops separate from Rome.

The question is, will the good people of Nepal tolerate this? Will the Maoists respect the elections that put them in power if the same process strips them of it?

:( so far, you're describing the Government in Britain!
 
Important to remember that the Maoists sitting in Nepal's parliament aren't there because they captured power militarily in a civil war, but because they were elected to be there ... by a sizeable proportion of Nepal's population.

Add my prayers for the people of Nepal, as this is a hugely turbulent time politically. It will continue to be a great challenge to have two very different ideologies represented in the parliament, each claiming the electoral support of significant amounts of the population.

To be fair, just about all governmental systems corrupt religious freedom. That is why it is critical to limit governments' powers to do so.
 
Now we have Maoists gvernment in Nepal will see what they can do to help Nepali people. I thank you all from bottom of my heart for your good thought and prayers.

Hopefully the Gorkhas will rise up and expel them if they ever try that. I read somewhere about the thousands upon thousands who attempt to join the British military every time an opportunity arises for Her Majesty's Gurkhas, they never have trouble meeting quote and turn most away. They are willing to fight and die for another nation's freedom. I have no doubt that they would resist tyranny within their own land. A small man with a big knife and a smile is far scarier than a large man with a small knife and a scowl!

God bless the people of Nepal and watch over them in their trials.
 
the bbc did a travelogue with michael palin (from monty python) in the himalayas a few years back, when he got to nepal he attended a festival, they also were doing some preliminary fitness testing of gurkha applicants. the reds turned up, threw a damper on the festival, started taking names, charged the foreigners a 'tax', and kidnapped a couple of them for a day, (luckily only wanted them to have tea with the area commander) that years induction testing was over for that area.

i'd bet we will be told that nepal was once part of china as was tibet (at least in maoist history books which only go back to 1947) and the maoists will eventually request protectorate status from the democratic people of china, as did tibet. hordes of chinese will be settled there to bring in massive aid, and to educate the locals and make them more productive and mao loving, as in tibet, while removing their non-communist and counterproductive past history and customs. sometimes you just gotta break a few 1000 year old eggs. anyway, after they educate enough nepalis, the old indigenous population will be small enough in comparison to the rightful han population to be relegated to a quaint cultural oblivion.

the maoists do believe on one man, one vote. mao, or his appointed representative on earth, is that one man with the one vote. free and democratic elections will no doubt continue with the people able to freely choose the one man the party assigns to the ballot, it makes them so much freer to not be presented with all them confusing other party candidates as in the past. one man, one vote, one candidate for that vote. simple. the maoist candidate is obviously very popular as they always get 100% of the vote.

anyway, i hope that is not prophetic, and that change will be useful and productive and accomplished without further violence. i hope.

One irony of the present Tibet situation - not mentioned in the media (appeasement?) - is that far from Tibet being part of China, well over a thousand years ago the west of China was ruled by Tibetans.
 
that's why i said 'we will be told...'
