HUMBLE REQUEST!

'Your one minute may become a great support for us'

Cooking fuels (fire wood, kerosene and L.P. gas) are always scarce and becoming a big issue because of frequent price hiking in Nepal – no matter whether the consumers are in mountains, hills, terai or in Kathmandu valley. Everywhere, they are facing a lot of hardships in managing cooking fuels for the family. Recently, government has hiked the price of kerosene (NRs.3.55) and L.P. gas (Rs.200) making poor community even poorer. If you wish to support us to solve this problem, please vote us NOW in "COOKING WITHOUT GAS" in http://www.theworldchallenge.co.uk/2007_finalists.php to create an alternative energy source for the community from our own wastes to reduce over-dependence on forest resources and commercial fuels.

Don't forget to watch a documentary film on "COOKING WITHOUT GAS" in BBC Channel as follows:

6^th November, 2007, Tuesday: 1830 GMT (Nepal time 2415)

If we win this prestigiuos award, it would be a great achievement of our efforts and a great pride to all Nepali community in and outside the country. I hope your votes will definitely take us to top-3.
