Izen, I agree with your points to great extents...and with having seen all those COMPROMISES, COMPROMISES and AGAIN COMPROMISES, We Nepalese seems to have lost faith in the Democracy or fight for it. I also would blame Girija and his daughter for all the flaws we had in our system, and I agree that he is running his party as Gyane is running the country... But My point here is not about to support him or any other party leaders, I am just asking all of us to support the movement....I went to lots of demonstrations when I was in kathmandu for the support of democracy(Nagrik Sabhas and intellectual discussions), but none of political demonstrations, Because I didn't felt sort of enthusiasm to support them anymore.... BUT Seeing the autocracy flourishing and doing everything to crush our human rights, we don't have any more choices...I agree there should be new generation to represent the country...But there should be first a system that allows the people's voice to be heard...and DEMOCRACY only DEMOCRACY can do that....and without political parties thats not possible...and even in political parties too when we see around, I can count of my hand the numbers of leaders that are truely fighting against the real enemy if Democracy, THE ROYAL REGIME...and GAGAN is one of them, who has intellect and expressions bestowed openly against the enemy...So I support him for his openness and his fight against the Autocracy...and If he turns out to be one of the COMPROMISER, then there would be no choice to thrash him from image of god to a villain, and Maybe run back to my country for good. and Maybe fight for my right by myself...But till now, I am just asking to support him at least, and if can't not to demoralize him...But as democracy allows, We are all open for sharing the views and question all our curiosities... Thanks for ur kind words Izen ji, Nirman~* Prem_dai, Talking about system, what we see in today's europe and US hasn't come at once, They have practiced the system for hundreds of years to reach here and still they are not perfect...So We should give a system enough time to flourish before saying thats not perfect... I agree that u r against all the corrupt leader(I am too), But do u see Gyan dai less corrupt, or u r just blindly supporting him???...and Before saying someone puppet,( I guess you are also living somewhere in Canada) U also maybe one puppet afraid to return to country, and blah blahing against every voice rised against the AUTOCRACY...and talking about: What exactly is he asking from Nepalese in USA? Maybe some moral support, Some international pressure and some aid from fellow nepalese to fuel the movement...THERE ARE COSTS TO PRINT THE POSTERS AND HIRING MIKES AND EVERYTHING ELSE....So, If u can't just help someone who is running for ur rights, just sit down until U have no rights and ur own owner comes after u for his last hunt!!!...:)
