let me put my idea about the army, In nepal we have 90 thousand army men. The people of Nepal feed these army men. But feeding 90 thousand men is a big thing~. The 90 thousand army men are not productive. They are not doing some work that would gain some profit to the nation. Instead they get the salary from the government. Where does the money come from? The tax of common people. May be some part of it as donation from the developed nations but that is supposed for the people of Nepal. Of course, some of the army men are enrolled in british gurkha n indian army which is a good source of foreign income. But those number very few. The large group is there in the barracks in Nepal. What do they do?? Just combat practise. Would that bring any money to Nepal. a big NO! Now think carefully. In one hand we are losing a large number of youth in military training. Those youth can be utilised to make doctors and engineers to build our nation. On the other hand, a large part of the budget is used for feeding the military. The money could have been used for the development. One might argue that there are engineers and doctors in military but still they also number very few. Besides, I have never heard the military engineers involved in any development works. About the doctors, the chauni hospital is there. I dont know whether normal people can get their health check up there or not~ So, I cant say anything about the doctors. But still a BIG number of army is there doing combat practise which is not doing any good for Nepal. A big military force is good only for the dictators. One thing a large part of youth are involved in something so that they dont have time to think of whats right and whats wrong. Other thing, they have a loyal army. And one more thing in case of a disaster, army men prove to be a good human source. But it doesnt have to be army alone. The local people, students, professionals, etc should work together for the sake of humanity.
