Nepal, a landlocked country, full of talent, resources, and manpower but lacks technology which is the prime requirement of the country. The country which was once the only Hindu kingdom of the world has just come out from a drastic situation. Its the country, which saw a long civil war of 12 years with more than 12000 of our countrymen loosing their life, courtesy of which we have been able to see the dawn of democracy once again.
Nepal ranks 2nd in maximum inland water, though it occupies only 147,181 sq.kms of area, has the potential of producing hydro electricity for capacity enough for fulfilling the requirements of Nepal and most of the India's North states, but the irony of the fact would be, we still may one of the maximum tariffs for the use of the basic requirement electricity. She doesn't need more water, but needs technological investment from people within the country and also from countries which has always been there for its help such as India, China, US, Japan and lots more.
It has colleges but enough is more needed for the young buds to show their talents. It has awesome tourist places like Pokhara, Kathmandu with all the world class facilities but needs more and more international tourists to visit. It has great resources in minerals, herbs and shurbs needed for medical factory requirements as well as raw materials requirement for development of lots of basic needs. It has the capacity to produce enough of Wheat, Maize and Rice. It would not be false to say that being a landloacked country Nepal is a world in itself, but it needs to explore places.
In the 21st century where world is kissing zenith, we cant remain at nadir being complacent and thinking that its not our duty to work for our country.
At the time where the whole world is facing liquidity crunch which banks and financial institutions going bankrupt just because of the bad investments done, investing in the country projects which would not only lead to a huge return but will also help country to achieve its potential. Its the time now, I say its the time, as there is requirement of it with and the politicians as well as the dignitaries of civil society inviting all the organizations such as UN, IMF, World Bank as well as the countries which i named before.
Come to our land. We are the land of Gautam Buddha, we are the land of Mount Everest. We dont ask for donations, we ask investments which not only will benefit us but will also give substantial return to you.
