newuserr... okey u cannot agree in terms.... that's your choice and my own... staying abroad nepal and comparing "gold with sand" is a little bit tough ain't it?? you know who pegged NRS 160=IC 100 it was this democratic governments... pls. pls.. do not talk about the currency pegging and the float currency. one fundamental argument you missed is "PEOPLE HAD CHOICE OF GOING ABROAD FOR EDUCATION" before 1990 and they had done that ... easily then and now. "ITS NOT THE BROADNING OF HORIZONS ITS THE AFFORDABILITY AND THE HIGHER SPENDING POWER OF HIGHER NUMBER OF PEOPLE"
