Dear Readers,
To some Nepal must be a Pride....and to some it must be an Unknown destination....hurts me a lot when people ask me " WHERE IS NEPAL".... but if you say "THE HIMALAYAS" they say " Oh yes yes... and AGAIN " INDIA???"....Duh Nepal is Nepal........ the most Beautifully landlocked country with the "Duu deeey Chuurpi- also known as Milky Dry cheese"...like the white mountains everywhere
Anyways.... Am not here to sit and judge if the whole world knows where is Nepal or if they've ever looked into Atlas..... for i know all my people do know where it is...no matter where they are and am sure they all miss our lovely country
NEPAL: News, Headlines, Papers, Radios says from 15th Dec 2010 Nepal Electricity Authority decides to cut down on the power supply for 8 hrs everyday :(....Strange but true... it is not that I am complaining about power cuts, we have got used to candle light dinners every winter, just that now analyzing the over all situation made me think that NEA shall have a tough time after few years..........and will have to make a sales call to every houses .. :). Government is rising the Electricity bills re...even in such power shortage lol.
Dont Worry Though ....Here with the power cut, every individual houses have opted for Solar supply or inverter and these days they are coming up with systems where inverter can give the power for laptops and TV as well so why need Govt Electricity. No more bills nothing..... and people in few years will adapt to this system. People will forget their ways which shall lead to the NEA office hahahaah.......
Our country is said to be the richest in Water....but no water to drink, no water for the electricity, no water to wash our "Kattu":underwear at times, however Hydro projects are coming up :O..there is so much hope in them........so many are into exsistance but i dont know their Job Description :(... nor do i know much about them
Well who does not love the Government Power...we sure all do, but having to recharge my lappy sitting in the toilet for 30 min...which is the only place where the inverter for my lappy is accessible in my apartment, it is sad you know... such a colddd winter and lady like me in the toilet with nothing but my bunny slippers staring at me :(... but have to adjust and having to rather sit in the darkness with my drunken neighbours quarell its better i go to the toilet and charge my lappy...staring at my Bunnies or i'd rather say catching a Cold and farting aloud and blushing by myself :)
Lastly.. i see all my dear friends abroad promoting VISIT NEPAL 2011....:)... it such a proud feeling for them... but i am sorry to inform you that our Government has not still been able to stop pissers in the Palace walls forget about other changes....so from my perspective i shall sell "Destination Nepal- Just the way it is" :)..... kindly do visit it ....for we still have Mt.Everest which hasn't shifted to Africa or somewhere like shown in the movie 2012 :)........ nor has the highest to the lowest peak changed.......it was just the way you left it years back, just has become more older with the dust and noiser with more vechiles.... Oh yes i saw few days back...the Snows are melting and is visible from Kathmandu....this is not a JOKE..... :(
Till i update you more .:)........ take care and be good...protect US :(
C you all soon
Hello,
ReplyDeleteInteresting post. I like your blog!
For my part, I know where Nepal is. Which seems a very interesting country, but I will propably never visit it, unfortunately. One day perhaps, if my financial situation is better.
But I understand what you say. It's amazing how people around the world can ignore even the existence of a country or situation. I must confess, I do not know many things about Nepal.
I live in Quebec, I noticed that generaly everyone ignores it is a French-speaking province of Canada. With a culture and a style of language completely different from France.
About the reduction of electricity, I think I read on a blog that some regions of Vietnam do the same. However, it must be sometimes quite cold in your area.
Here, yesterday, for example, the temperature was - 17 ° C without electricity that would be really difficult to live. In February, temperatures can drop to -30 °C sometimes.
Sorry for my English, it is not perfect
:) Have a good day
To bear up the inconvenience of load shedding in Nepal is ironical & unfortunate, for Nepal is the second largest country (after Brazil)in water resource. However, this data holds only good in terms of potentiality of producing electricity via hydropower plants.
ReplyDeleteWith ever increasing demand for electricity and yet shortage of supply makes Nepalese life miserable. It's utter shame that whatever Hydropower plants we have cannot sustain the need of vasty populated nation. Often times they are down for maintenance. Before new projects could even conceive, corrupt politicians droolingly dream about their underhand commission.
It's not only the shortage of electricity we are facing. Talk about sanitation, health, social security, law and order, government et al. We are all deprived good part of 'em. No wonder why our motherland is one of the poorest countries. However, I would be doing injustice if I forgot to mention Nepalese are richest at heart. :)
Nepal is not only rich in water resources, it's equally rich in bio-diversity owing to its unique landscape. Nepal is Amazon of Asia. :) Cultural heritage wise you'll find yourself scratching your head in awe. Too diverse to comprehend. :)
I could go days talking about my motherland. :D
P.E.A.C.E.
It helps me understand better the situation. Often it is difficult to understand the whole reality. The media only show what they are willing to talk. It is interesting to see things from another perspective.
ReplyDeleteIn Quebec, that I understand, we have the world's largest producer of hydroelectricity, Hydro-Quebec. It has about 60 hydropower plants in the province. The power of is facilities is estimated at 36,810 megawatts. These factories are mostly built in north areas of Quebec, usually very sparsely inhabited. However, from our side our electricity rates are generally low.
Matthieu... don worry you are always welcome in our country with a harm heart and i dont think you need a real big amount fo money to visit Nepal. Well the place I live in could be pleasant month for you now as the temp is never low......
ReplyDeleteIdream..yes our country is rich in everything and not to forget the hearts of people...but close your eyes and think once is it applicable for all people of this country...had it been true our politician wouldnt been acting so Childish...
