khomeronam::: "By the time, revolution for slavery started................ west started using rights of slaves in the name of human rights while Nepal was practicing the traditional development concepts."

This is one topic I have always discussed among my friends and colleagues. I do not only talk about slavery but also about the environmental impact the west made in their industrial era. They now balme the developing nations mainly India and China for pollution. The west was developed based on two black thing viz. Black Man and The coal. Use of both of these was neither good to the humanity nor good to the environment.  They extensively used child labour during both pre and post war period for development and now they want the sweat shops in Bangaldesh closed. They should understand that the sweat shop in Bangladesh provides food for living for that child, otherwise they would be dead.

There was a poem at the end of Hijo Aaja ka Kura recently..... which roughy translates to .... " A worker working at gas station does not gets chair to sit down in his 18 hours shift in your country and you come to my country and talk about human rights " How fair is that? How true is it?
