I am conducting a research project that examines the adaptation experiences of Nepalese living in the United States. This study will provide insights into the forces that determine the adaptation experiences of Nepalese in the United States. As a participant in this study, you will be asked to spend about 30 minutes of your time in completing an online survey. You must be at least 18 years of age and be a Nepalese living in the United States. You will have a month (August 2- September 2, 2010) to complete this questionnaire. Participants’ confidentiality and anonymity will be protected. I have turned off the feature, which collects IP addresses. You will create a unique code (using a nickname), which will help you to log in (multiple times) to the study. Participation in this study is completely voluntary. The only direct benefit for participating in this study is that at the completion of the study a summary of the results will be mailed to you upon request by contacting  me directly. If you have questions about this online survey, please contact me at 940-395-2227 or by email at sonithapa@twu.edu. Thank you for your assistance in advance.

I don't see anything wrong with them helping out a community member...

Long time ago I got an email had this link and did it. Not a big thing, She is just trying to get things done though a social network like this.

Yes; these organizations should have rather advocated for the rapist instead!

LaNepali · Aug 19, 2010 4:50 PM

I don't see anything wrong taking into the survey. Its not only for Sony but also reveals some sort of Nepali situation in US. I just did it...and encourage others to take part if u haven't .

राहुलभाइको शब्द हुन,   .मृत्‍यु पनि शंका को घेरा मा हे राम........................ ।हामी एती शन्कालु छौ को, घरमा छोरी बिरामी भएर पल्ला घरए नरे सँग सापत मगेको बिरामी शब्द सुन्ना साथ केही नभनी खुरुक्क दियो.अब एही कुरामा हामी दिमाग खियाएर बस्छौ। यो नरे सँग गल्फत्ती नगरि एक कौडी पनि नझार्ने आज किन एक शब्द नबोली दियो। छोरीको दबाइ कहाँ र कसरी गर्ने भन्दा पनि यो नरेको टाउकोमा के छ , किन खुरुक्क दियो ? के मा आँखा गाडेको छ , कही त्यो मेरो झाली गाई मा त हैन, कित त्यो डँगुरे खेतमा त हैन ? सारा कुरा त्यो लेखीएको छ , नाम ठेगाना, के कारण र कुन उद्देस्य हो , तैपनी हामी शन्खा गर्न छोडेका छैनौ ? के यो हाम्रो जातिय गुण हुन वा हामी जोखिम बिना कारण किन उठाउने भनी खाली सतर्क मात्र हुन खोजेका हौ ?

एस्तै खाट्टी र खरो कुरा गर्दा रहेछन र पो गाठे ति भुराहरु खनिएका रहेछन त।  मिठो लाग्यो " मृत्‍यु पनि शंका को घेरा मा हे राम" कसरी कुरा टिपेर राख्न सकेको हो गाठे ।  हुन्लाई त हो , सबै कुरा ऐना झै खुलस्त पारे पछी पनि किन कुरा बङ्याइ राख्नु।  कुनै कुनै भुरा हरु त काउसो लगाएरै छोड्नु पर्ने खाल्का छन। २-४ दिन भयो हराएका हुन्की सेलाएका हुन।  Last edited: 20-Aug-10 03:38 PM

I just contributed my share to the survey! Good luck towards the degree!

I did this survery few days back, it's not that bad at all. I think Soni Thapa is just trying to get some information for her research. It takes less than 10 minutes.
