"budhi bhaneko ek thopa choina. ya we should let poor kids in nepal starve to death b/c we cannot let our ego hurt and take foreign aids. " - Gunda

Gunda bro, we have been taking foreign aids for the past how many years....and yet our people are miserable more than ever. Most of the times those aids end up in the pocket of those who have authority over us. It is always in their best interest  to keep our nation poor and to continue getting the foreign aid. On the other hand, these aids always come with string attached and with some vested interests of the foreign donors. This will always give the donar nations, their dictates over us. Instead of working our efforts on to be a self-reliant nation, we seek remedies in foreign aid. A beggar will remain a beggar entire life, if he does not change the way he functions and yes his children will always be at the mercy of the alms his father collects. If the father fearing his children starving to death, doesn't seek other alternatives, he will never get himself and his children out of their miserable life. That's what our nation is suffering. We ought to say 'no thank you' if we ever want to be a real Independant nation. I think you must be taking pride knowing our nation is the poorest nations relying on the alms of other nations and boosting your ego.  In the past, our people have been slaves of monarchies and Rana regimes. Presently our country survives at the mercy of the foreigners (foreigner's policies, donations, aids etc). That is slavery to me. One doesn't need to be in shackles and chains to be a slave.

nepwanted bro, yes the topic is different but if you read what anura8  has written

ll the other nations in the world are marching forward but Nepal has been going backwards. I think China should take over not just Tibet but also Nepal as well so that atleast development will take place in the region. "

He has touched the essence of sovereignty of a nation that's why we all went a-bomb in his post. His post points out that atleast for the welfare of our nation in the name of "development" we should give up our sovereignty to the foreign nation which gundaa bro seems to like it since he also wants to continue receiving foreign aids to save our "poor kids in nepal" from starving to death. My personal view regarding our sovereignty exists only in papers and illusions. We are so dependent on the foreigners that we could be called a modern day slaves. If the power-to-be wants monarchy in our country, They can establish it, if They want "democracy", They can establish it, if They want "republic", They and only They can establish it and we think "We the People" brought the change in the country. This is all because we have become so dependent to their foreign aids, their wills and their policies.

It's time to say NO and stand up on our own feet. If only we could learn from the South Koreans....
