More and more i realize that Nepal is loosing its future to foriegn countries...those lucky enough to get a good education and hence gain the ability to make change leave the country for better opportunities else where...this has always been a problem but more so now than ever..I know a good amount of people from a generation ago who actually did make it back to Nepal from studying abroad...unfortunately more and more of my peers who have a good college education are spending thier time working in gas stations or wherever abroad, after they graduate..yes I want to make money too...but somewhere inside it tells me I should go back...If there is any time to go back home it is now....this might seem cruel, but I believe it to be true..there is a saying "when there is blood on the streets, buy property." We can eliminate the risk of investing in Nepal if we all invest collectively more into it..we are at the lowest, there is nothing more to loose this is sad..but the greenest plants grow in the thickest ash...this is the time where we have to go in and make our future..at the same time we help the future fo other Nepali people who are infinitly less priviledged..But it is so hard to fight uncertainty in your own country when you know what to expect abroad. How do we stop this brain drain???
