Guitar Daku,

I feel that the greatest challenge for the New Servers of Nepal (NSNs) will come from the old guard: the old Gaun Mukhyas. The old guard has been enjoying the power structure of the status quo for a while and will resist any kind of change.

I'm am repeating some words that I used in a different post that applies here also:

The Gaun Mukhya enjoys being the top dog in the village. The Gaun Mukhya enjoys all the chakadi that he receives with people coming to his angan rubbing their palms in supplication. The Gaun Mukhya enjoys smoking his tamakhu slowly, pulling the smoke into his cheeks, nodding his head slowly and understandably. He loves being the thulo manchhe of the village.

The Gaun Mukhya will help the other villagers in Nepal. But he will never help them too much. Why? Because he will lose power. The Gaun Mukhya's power comes from people needing him. From them depending on him. From them fearing his gundas. From them daring not to vote for people in county elections that he says, should not be voted for. If the other poverty stricken villagers actually start to become independent, then what would happen to the Gaun Mukhya? His skills would no longer be relevant. He would no longer be in demand. No one would fear offending him. Then what would happen to the career of the Gaun Mukhya? What would happen to his clout?

But the Gaun Mukhya has children who have become educated in proper values (that would be, hopefully, be us). They understand democracy. They understand egalitarian values. They understand exploitation. And when they see how their father acts, they are torn. On one hand they want to be loyal to their father. But on the other hand, they know that their father's money is 'blood money.'

Credit is the currency of the Gaun Mukhya to bleed the world. All the poor come, doing chakadi to the Gaun Mukhya so he will extend their loans a little bit more. And the Gaun Mukhya gets to play the benevolent benefactor in public while bleeding all the poor villagers in private.

In Africa there are 'blood diamonds.'

In Nepal, there is 'blood grains,' 'blood tourism,' 'blood farming' and 'blood banking.' There is blood everywhere.

But as much blood as there is in Nepal right now, it still is not Liberia:

But we don't do our part in Nepal today, when we can....then it will be too late when it becomes like Liberia tomorrow. At that time, cursing it or crying will do nothing. So let us act today when we can.
