Recently there was a newsitem in which it said 3 Sherpas were killed in the expedition.Is this the way to treat the death of Nepalis that our Tourism Ministry, which thrives on selling the name of the Sherpas and Mt Everest worldwide, cannot even name those Sherpas who died? No biodata, no obituary and nothing about how it happened. What would have happened if the foreigners were killed? Would they just have mentioned only in the number?? Our own government first MUST learn to treat its hardworking citizens. I know it may not have occured to many of you when you read the news becasue this is the way they are being treated since long.
