Politicans were corrupt, during 1990s. that is true, however we had a democratic system where people could Vote out the parties they don't like and give opportunities to new politicians. I had freedom to vote any party I wanted. it was a democracy. There were no restrictions in democracy that said you cannot create "Class less society". There is plenty of path to make reforms in a democratic system. (Social, political, econimical..whatver..) how can you think a nation has to turn into a communist state to make reforms?? If nepalese people reward the corrupts politicians by re-electing them again and again. that is not the fault of democracy. Those leaders may have been corrupt but they still came to parliament through ligitimate democratic process.
