Looteji, I know Roger is very optimistic about a vibrant and orderly economy emerging out from a fully democratic Nepal in near future. So he did not mean any kind of pessimism in the line you quoted. He simply meant it is not possible to be "physically present in Nepal" all the time. Otherwise he wouldn't say we should go for investing in businesses in Nepal in the following sentence. त्यहाँको प्रशासनिक यन्त्रसँग हामी प्रत्यक्ष रुपले चल्नै सक्दैनौ । यसैले हामीले यताबाट कुनै नाफामूलक व्यापार व्यवसायमा लगानी गर्न सक्छौं । **** **** **** **** One more picture from ANA 2006.
