Nice article...Always the case for anyone going back. Cats finish up with the undergrad here and go back to Nepal (due to family pressure/unable to get a job or whatever other reasons) and then they regret they ever took that step as there is too much negativity there. The USA for ALL Third worlders (not only Neps) is the "land of opportunity" and anywhere else around the globe too, you'd have been faced with the same question: "WHY did you come back?" A classic scenario of the grass being greener.... And for helping Nepal by returning, though you make sense from YOUR point of reaoning but in reality ,many a livelihood depend on the almighty dollars being sent back home. If that sustenance is cut, how would most families cope with it (the short-term effects would be disastrous). A catch 22 situation to the core!
