Hello friends, Of the 118 postings in this thread so far, 71 postings are not mine. They are from you. Although many of you disagree with me, and label me as John Kerry , George Bush, Maoist, close to corrupt political leaders, short-sighted, superficial, immature, impractical, theoritical and so on; isn't it nice to attract these many responses? I think most of the comments are made only after reading my posting, which makes me feel like oh this is great. At least people are reading me and taking their time to share their ideas. To draw dislike and criticism from many people is also some sort of success. All of you are welcome to express your dissatisfaction, however baseless or irrelevant some of them may be in the upcoming postings. At least we have a democratic forum in which pro monarchists, pro-democratics and pro-republicans are expressing their ideas in equal proportion. Isn't this something impartial ? although my opinions are little bit tilted towards democracy. For democracy is the most impartial system available in the world at present, implying (pro monarchist+pro democracatic+prorepublican) Nepalese = democracy =impartiality. Whatever assumption you have made on me, my way of resolving the current crisis is based on the above formula. If each one of the three components give up some of their vested interests, it is not impossible , it is not impractical to solve the maoists problem of the country. Corruption cannot be elliminated but can be controlled once these three forces reach to a consensus through dialogue. King Gyanendra can still be a hero by trying to forge a consensus by agreeing to hold an election for constituent assembly in some period of time, say within 3 years. Guys, I feel like maoist rebels are no less Nepalese then the King or political leaders or other Nepalese or you and me. Let a big chunk of misguided Nepalese be given a chance to rest their weapons and join the political framework. Constituent assembly is not a big deal, constitutional restructuring is not a big deal. One day, this demand of the Maoists must be met so why not we do it sooner to avoid more bloodshed in the country. This is my point. Now, 3 weeks have past by since King Gyanendra took over the power. Should we not do a quick review of the major events of past 21 days and make our assesement on the developments so far?
