mercenery? you are wrong in dude. they are called no more mercenaries anymore. haven't you learnt that they(gurkhas) and his families from 1997 onwards are given equal rights and even uk citizenship as par with the britishcounterparts. also dude in country like Nepal where opportunities are so few and limited in addition to discrimination, being soldiers in foreign country is better than not doing anything. As our forefathers said "Kaphar hunnu bhanda marnu ramro" still rings in my ear. therefore i feel proud of nabin rai for upholding the names of our forefathers. how can you be sure he is not ex. GC banja.? I remembered Dipendra Rai and he had his younger bro, nabin. Nabin always wanted to become british lahure. lost contact with him.
