though, I am not a Newar...born in outside the valley and raised in Katmandu,and attended at Vanasthali school I had some very good friends of Newar community, they always gave me respect and protection while I was minority in their community. I am sure it is not a race...individuals from any race ....most of them are good and some of them are bad. Even some of individuals of mine own race are worst than any other sect. May Peace Last in Nepal.
