The contribution of gurkhas so far cant be ignored especially in an economy like Nepal where the main source of income is ' Remittance'.The remittance affects not only the revenue of the country but also indirectly the salaries of Govt. Personnels... infact also affect salaries of Nepal Army itself whose salary is peanuts compared to the former. No wonder nepal army has been the least choicet for any soldier who wish to pursue his career as an army personnel.Only the filtered 300 gets recruited in British Army every year. It has become a brand of bravery over the time so much that even at present time the ex -colonial british empire still chooses to recruit gurkha despite the fact that the british army in it's colonial era recruited armies from almost all of it's colonized countries. Truth is bitter :Many gurkhas got offended in england when the data revealed that even the nepal's prime minister's salary was far less than what an ex gurkha captain was getting as his pension.This was a defense the british govt had to support for the lower pension for ex gurkhas who was living in nepal .(lower pension for ex gurkhas in nepal -as the living costfor the retired gurkhas living in nepal would be much lower than was needed to retired britsh soldiers who lived in england with much higher living cost) But now tha all the ex gurkhas have got the options to stay in UK and get the equivalent pensions-would it be financially viable for nepal's economy? will the flow of remittance get reversed to UK's economy instead?
