Here is one of the ministers from Jana Morcha Nepal saying that our country does not need a military. Jana Morcha Nepal (JMN) general secretary Navaraj Subedi on Saturday said that his party was in favour of bringing the strength of the army down to zero over time in keeping with the need to save the resources for other state priorities. Subedi said that it was the opinion of the party that the resources, which are going towards the maintenance of the army should go to other priority area. He also said that the view has been passed over to the seven party alliance and the rebels. "We are of the view that the strength of the army should be gradually brought down to zero. If the people of Costa Rica can take such a decision, why cannot we take it?" Subedi queried while speaking at a function in the capital. He was of the view that Nepal should go for eventual disbandment of the army after signing non-aggression treaty with both India and China. Moreover he was also of the view that JMN has suggested that the nation should go for the concept of "civil defence force" rather than sticking to the army to defend the national borders. You know I wonder if this Jack ass of a minister has seen our border areas where Indian gangs operate and harm Nepali citizen along with Indian military shrinking Nepal to 1/3 its size by next 30 years. But wait he talk about civilian defense force, now how many civilian defense forces would he put in border areas and guard the civilian. What if there is another uprising like Maoist who would protect civilians, our borders, and take care of the uprising. These ministers can not even tame the Maoists how can they figure out the defense of the country. Lets me hear some opinion.
