An obvious example of an extremely poor diplomacy on the part of the Nepali government and its missions in the Gulf. Compare this with the three Indians who were taken hostage much earlier, yet as of this morning, the Times of India reported them "safe and in good health", quoting the Indian officials. The King (being the effective head of the Nepali government) should apologize to the families of the dead for not doing enough (or perhaps for not doing ANYTHING!); his foreign minister and the envoys in the Gulf should quit immediately on moral grounds. I join you all in the mourning.
