You need a good example? I think I have got many. First, the scale of consciousness that developed in people. People are no longer sheeps and goats these days. Otherwise they would line up in thousands and chant- Hamro Raja Hamro Desh Pran Bhanda Pyaro chha. As they did in the repressive Panchayat period. Developement of media. You have choice what to read and what to listen from politics to music. No longer you need to watch or read or listen to Radio Nepal and Nepal Televison and Gorkhapatra only. YOu have choices, freedom(though Gyanendra has shamefully barred this choices now). With media the knowledge of the outer world entered inside Nepal, you must agree. Secrecy and darkness within the government or public sector has been unfolded by the media. Development of private sector educaton. I know people from extreme poverty culd not benefit from this but a big chunk of the middle class and lower middle class have benfitted from this which previosuly was only available to upper class people. The easy issuing of Passports. In Panchayat, you could only be issued a passport from the foreign ministry. General people could not go abroad for emplyment or education. With the simplification of the precedure, now tens of thousands of people are earninng foreign currency for the country from abroad. Our country today is running with the remmitence send home by Nepalese working abroad. secularism, economic liberalisation, modernisation, of the society. Prajatantra ko bich ma neta ka ghar matra haina sathi lakhau janata ka ghar pani khar bata brick ra cement ka gharma change bhako chhan. Brick and cement houses were the property of thulabada in that era but not now. 12 barsha ma janata le thulo fadko marekachhan. Neta matra gatila bhaideko bhaye, we have moved a lot forward. Blockade of information and communication will hide many things. So you do not know what has happened in these 4 days. But apart from politician's reckless misuse of government resources, Nepalese people have taken a giant leap. We are used to with democracy. First we will wait few weeks till King Gyanedra gives our telephone lines back, otherwise we will storm into Narayanhiti. beware!
