Let me share you some of the news I have. A friend of mine, who recently went back to Nepal felt much lonely and abandoned than in USA. Here, you still have your friends to talk over the phone using unlimited weekend and night calls; you get social "nepal-like" environment when Nepalese get together. But in Nepal, there is only competition and jealousy, unnecessary show-off, exaggeration of achievements, and unverifiable claims, which all make you sick pretty soon. My friend met a old-time friend (Mr. A), who started bragging about owning 17 houses in KTM as soon as they started talking. Just 5 years ago, Mr. A used to live in a mid-sized DERA close to ringroad. Another friend (Mr. B) asked first "how much his friends in USA earns?" than any other questions and told him that Mr. B owns a +2 college, a house worth of 2 karod, car worth of nearly 1 karod and shared-investment in many other institutions. Mr. B was unable to get Rs. 2000 loan in the college days. Mr. C described him of using helicopter to visit the working sites, kept receiving calls in his mobile interrupting the talk frequently, and those calls were not business-related either. Mr. D took him to a restaurent and spent Rs 5000.00 ($70.00) easily for light refreshment whereas he still feels spending $25.00 in a lunch for two people is luxury in USA. Mr. E, F, G did not returned a call he placed. He could find very few people he knew in the town, and felt much more uncomfortable than he ever imagined. In Temples, people easily throw Rs 100.00 bills to the priests. Ohh, what a change? How the money is so cheap? How they make so much money? Are they all doing legitimate business? Is there a system to track the transactions? Or people are just grabbing money dropping off from the sky?

I recommended a labor-supervisor to a new job some 10-years ago, who was suffering mental-torture (leading to jobloss) from a company I worked earlier. This guy found me through social network after a long time. I was surprised from his current status. He has recruited several of my friends in his company. He owns a construction company, invested in several schools, and holds land more than 20 ropanies in KTM. OMG, what a change? He told me "Sir, You have changed my life, thank you. I will help you if you ever need me." I am happy for him.

I met a Nepalese struggling very hard to survive in a foreign land. I encouraged him to go back Nepal, and he did. After 6 years, we are reconnected through Social network. He worked for UN agency in Nepal, and his facebook is full of the photographs showing his fortunes. He told me "Dai, thank you for suggesting me going back to Nepal, and providing moral support when I was in hard time. I am glad I followed your suggestion."

The above cases tell both optimistic and pessimistic aspect of going back to Nepal. In chautari, a friend writes:
मुग्लान पसेको नि धेरै भइसकेछ - आफु लाई त हावाइजहाज मा जान बडा डर लागेर आउछ
त्यसैले मैले के सोचे भने जब नेपाल सम्म यहाँ बाट बस जान्छ - हामी तब जान्छ -
This might be the case for majority.
