Unfortunately, for a poor country like Nepal, the responsibility to develop the country lies in the hands of the rich and the elites. Some may argue, that the responsibility is that of the government. But, the government has proven to be inept in their performance again and again. It was supposed to the government’s job to assign the minimum wage, especially to companies making profits more than certain amount. The maoist problem came up because of the social disparity. As all of us can see, there is a vast gap between the rich and the poor. In this situation, the only solution is to make the difference smaller. And that can be only achieved when the companies pay their employees a little more than what they have been paying. By paying the employees a little more, the owner of the business will be able to afford less than what he could have afforded. Okay lets say, a businessman will be able to afford 2 ropanies, instead of 3 ropanies he was going to buy for his next house. The word ‘stingy’ came to the dictionary because of nature of people who want more. Yes, it is a human nature to want more, but is wanting more in cost of hard work of poor people (by paying them miniscule wage) right? It is a moral question, really, I think for the rich folks of Nepal. Lets say, for now, the maoist got defeated and everything that has been going on came to a halt. If the new government does not address the core problem, then the problem will arise again, maybe with the name of janamorcha, or xyz. Then what will you do?
