I care about the Dalai Lama and perhaps hundreds of thousands of Nepalis who follow him do.  BTW, Haven't we all been responding to the threads that highlight Nepal's crisis??  Why don't you start a thread with all those issues you point out and look for a response rather than just wait for someone else to be proactive (so you could jump into the bandwagon).  More depressingly, all threads I see about the Nepalese socio-economic-political scenario are only related to the Maoists and the netas, which I am sick of responding to every time (with the same thoughts).  As you pointed out, maybe newer topics are what we need.
