Beloved Countrymen, On the occasion of the advent of the New Year 2063, we extend best wishes for peace, good health and prosperity of all Nepalese, living in the country and abroad. We appreciate the understanding and patience of the Nepalese people, conscientiousness of the civil servants and the perseverance, courage and discipline displayed by the security personnel during the past year. Democracy demands restraint and consensus as all forms of extremism (INCLUDING THE ONE YOU ARE DISPLAYING STUPID!) are incompatible with democracy. While facing the challenges confronting the nation, democracy also emphasises acceptance of the preeminence of the collective wisdom in charting a future course. Aware of our traditions and sensitivities, as well as the self-respect and self-confidence of the Nepalese people who have always remained independent throughout history, dialogue must form the basis for the resolution of all problems. We, therefore, call upon all political parties to join in a dialogue, which we have always advocated, to bear the responsibility of and contribute towards activating the multiparty democratic polity. We believe that there is no alternative to multiparty democracy (OH REALLY?) in the 21st century and the verdict of the ballot alone is legitimate. It is our wish that in order to reenergize multiparty democracy, there should not be any delay in reactivating all representative bodies through elections (DO PEOPLE WANT ELECTIONS NOW?). We are in favour of sustainable peace and the people's right to vote (LIAR!). Democratic norms and values demand a commitment that the goals set forth by the Constitution of the Kingdom of Nepal-1990 (Umm...Oh...let me see if i can find it in my trash...Didn't know you still believed in that constitution) can be achieved only through constitutional means. It is, therefore, our desire that with the active participation (Oh they are participating...didn't see the crowd before you landed in your palace...if not watch KTV) of all political parties committed to peace and democracy, a meaningful exercise in multiparty democracy be initiated through an exemplary democratic exercise like the general elections. May the efforts at ensuring sustainable peace and meaningful democracy in the interest of the nation and people bear fruit during the New Year. May Lord Pashupatinath bless us all! (YES! US NEPALESE EXCEPT YOU AND YOUR A$$HOLE SON) Jaya Nepal!
