couldn't resist opining (woof woofing :P)
It was a self sustained village in that Damais tailored the clothes, Kamis made the tools for agriculture and house hold items out of iron, Sunars made the jewelry and Sarkis made the shoes.
so basically damais should keep on tailoring clothes, kamis should restrict their skills to making tools outta iron only, sunars to jewelry making and sarkis to shoe sewing only huh?...everyone seems happy because they don't know they can explore things beyond that if they want.....'oblivion' and 'awareness' are the words i suppose. poor villagers don't know they can go to colleges if they will. give them freedom of speech and freedom to chose what they want to and then see if they're happy with what they've been doing since ages.
also a couple of things about his development plans don't make perfect sense to me or they sound too ambitious to say the least. the idea of electric train to connect the east-west, north-south boundaries sounds highly ambitious especially with the difficult terrain we have...well unless we build subways but then again show me the money please!
we are talking of thousands of megawatts of power plants here. can we imagine the operation/maintenance cost alone?
why don't we simply have black-topped roads instead and keep things simpler hoina? first things first...
nepal lai financial center banaunu parchha bhanne kura chahin munasib ho (being a nepali :P). but then we have to simply change our infrastructure from scratch to make that even remotely possible. we need to have hundreds of flights a day possible via nepali airport. with the large volume of people coming to nepal from across the globe, we gotta have number of good quality hotels with the state of the art technologies, good roads, no dearth of adequate water supply, no load shedding..so on and so forth. hell, we need to have virtually everything right from the word go.
i know thapa jyu loves nepal and want to see it developed..but in doing so, perhaps he's looking at many things from foresight assuming that the basic infrastructures have already been built . thanks to 250 years regime of royals and 17 years regime of self-proclaimed royals. there's no harm in looking at things from an optimistic POV tara yo ta oohi Prachanda le Nepal lai 5 years ma switzerland banauchhu bhanya jasto bhayena ra let's be more realistic/pracitcal hoina?. it's easy to pen down thoughts on paper
PS BTW, thapa jyu lai saayad prithvi narayan shah ko santati haru baata kehi bishesh aasha bha bhaye chahin beglai kuro hai! 'royals' they are still after all !
