biswa, You're damn right Bhunte is amusing wherever he goes. But to me, it is not here. Nepal has been an independent country ever since its establishment. And yet how many countries are there in this world, whose such a long and proud history has been ignored because of its presence in international arena and its foreign policies, which is nothing but just begging. Ratiotically, India and many other countries have more people suffering from hunger and poverty than Nepal. Yet, their voice is not ignored not only because of their importance in other aspects but also for their constant struggle for their recognition as someone who can make a difference. So Nepal should start immediately, even if it is from scrach, to be recognized in the world with our voice which could be in our interest in near future. Raising Taiwanese issue is not relevant but about Sikkim and Tibet, it is in definitely in Nepalese interest.
