ANA = Association of Nepalese in America. They hold convention every year in different cities. This year it's in Los Angeles. Something tells me that this year the convention is going to be a BIG FLOP. There will not be as many participants from out of town as in previous conventions. The reason? Simply because of the economy, people don't want to shell out hundreds of dollars to simply go party with other Nepalis. They want to keep it local.
