This might be a random musing but I can't help it. It used to be a common practice when I lived in Portland and I came across the trend after moving to the Bay Area a few months ago.

Apparently, an organization/club hosts a function, party etc and club members/officials of other organizations get felicitated and they return the favor in a similar manner.

Those nonsensical speeches delivered over microphones with low audibility (thanks to crappy sound system) is a different topic.

Is this a common practice all over the states? Can you relate to it?

Yes same everywhere. That is why you see unwilling people who are forcely invited.

यो organizations जिउदो बेला party खान र DJ dance लै काम लाग्छ| तर मरे पछि चाही काम लाग्छ है | They send mass email for सोक प्रकट गर्न र चन्दा उठाउन | They are very fast at it. At other times they don't even have time to pick up your call or email you back.

This is so true. Why do Nepali organizations always have a long list of people to distribute certificate to? Can't they just mail it to them to save the audience from having to witness this. It it was 5 top people who helped them then it's fine but they always have like 30. Just calling them and having them come to stage and all takes so much time. Most people come for the dance, and it gets cut short because of felicitation, certificate distribution and speeches. It seems like one organization has to felicitate all members of another organization so that they remain in good standing. I don't understand why everything has to be politicized.

The other thing that really irks me is lack of diligence and punctuality. Apparently, a program/function starting 2 hrs later than scheduled time is a common practice, especially among the ones who're well adapted to typical Nepali timing, even for sports programs.

I wonder if Indians/Bangladesis/Ethiopians/Insert any other minority group suffer from similar issues.
