First off, let me thank you all for the responses. It was just a random idea really that sprouted on my mind sometime back and I was looking for a suitable platform to put it forward and since sajha is a popular site among nepalese, I thought it might be worth sharing the plan here. I am planning to put this forth in the upcoming ANA convention as well, if it works out. Yes, it's just an initial thought and nothing has been materialised so far, that's why I was asking for your opinion. As I mentioned already, the idea is to encourage all nepalese, working and researching in EE and CS fields to come together and share their experiences. Working in synergy is the whole idea behind this and yes, I agree that it should not be limited to Phds only but graduate students or others who are aspiring to contribute are also more than welcome to join. The discussions will not be limited to research and studies but I am planning to extend it further to be able to make some contributions to Nepal. That's the crux behind all this idea. Once the organization is up and running, I am planning to discuss my ideas in detail. I hope others will reciprocate too. The problem right now is that I don't see how to reach to the target people. As per my initial plan, I will open a google group and will send out emails to all the nepalese organizations around the globe. I think it should work although I am not 100% sure. In any case, I will be more than happy to at least come up with a plan for its inception for now. Once that is done, we can discuss views from different people in the forum itself and plan on fulfiling the ambition. Thanks, and please do encourage and support us by giving some helpful suggestions.
