ANA had a good run so far but it is becoming apparent they can't keep up with the times. Instead of focusing on big ticket item like ANA Conventions they should focus on more local activities across the US to provide a sustainable support to Nepalis. ANA conventions have been run on the whims of the existing president and the hosting city council without any kind of procedure or system. They are fortunate that nothing bad has really happened so far. With increasing number of Nepalis, what if someone has a very bad accident. Even this year I heard some models fell off the ramp. Thank god they did not press any charges. If the accident is worse then who would be prosecuted? The organizing city coucil, the ANA committee or both? Good luck to Boulder organizers. I hope everything goes well if not you're the ones who are going to be blamed for everything. So be prepared.

I just don't understand how they can be so much in red. Operations wise, ANA is not a big organization. Oh well.
