The article is truly sensitive and it sure got a lot of attention, which, perhaps, the magazine had very well intended. Having read the article, it reminded me of the Bon Jovi starring movie, "Row Your Boat," in which in some scene Bon Jovi reads the excerpt of the Chinese text book where imperialism is denounced and how he redicules from a popular American perspective. (And, by the way, the movie is excellent!)If the article were to be true, maybe, even the Maoists would not like it, and it could very well serve its purpose . On the ground where many medias are trying their best to prove that Maoists are some evils, this sort of article does not surprise me. What surprises me is some of the things that have been said relating to the same(!) article itself. "a) Hisila Yami, a top-ranked Maoist netri says X in a major national newspaper in March 2007. As someone who has first-hand knowledge of how negatively are some schools and students are affected by the Maoists in Nepal, I, for one, find what she says to be truly scary for the future of Nepal." Truly scary? How about the time, if it will ever come, if Prachanda, when some journalist will ask him to clarify their take on the education, says that they have the most practical education that will greatly benefit Nepalese? Not scary then? Perhaps so happy that one would feel like dancing? "I say, unless we think Yami -- Baburam's missus -- is simply an idiotic puppet, we should take her words seriously enough to start countering them publicly." What about the most wonderful things she have said? Well, I got to go to class now; but I just recalled reading Hisila Yami's interview to some magazine on their model of education. I just can't remember the name of the magazine. (Nari magazine?) She had talked for polytechnic and job-centric (practical) education rather than the present model of education...
