NT to build 30-storied building The state-owned Nepal Telecom (NT) has said that it is all set to begin the construction of a 100m high 30-storied multi-complex, which would be the tallest in South Asia, reports said. The plan was prepared a year ago but construction has not begun due to delay of approval from the government. Reports said the government has now agreed on principle. The NT has created a nine-member coordination committee including representatives from Kathmandu Metropolitan City, Lalitpur Sub-metropolitan City and the Department of Urban Development and Building Construction (DUDBC) for the construction. NT plans to hire international construction companies to carryout the works, which would probably in Jawalakhel or Baber Mahal area, reports said. The complex would have office space of 500,000 sq. ft with an estimated cost of over Rs 2 billion. The proposed complex would accommodate all NT offices which is now spread in many locations in Kathmandu valley. A 28-storied building in Mumbai is the tallest building in the South Asian region. nepalnews.com ia Feb 17 06
