Bihe, Dowry & Nepstralian Morality

Many of the sajhaites know that I have just come from the Karnali trip. Now in Kathmandu there is …Bihe season…. and I was “fortunate” to attend some of the lavish marriage parties here.

And I feel that it is a crime keeping in mind how people live in Mugu and Jumla and how Kathmanduites spend in marriages.

I recently attended the marriage of a Nepstralian. This guy actually demanded a dowry of 500K in cash and lot of things in kind.

How moral is this?

Now the basic question is --- Have the Nepricans and Nepstralians learnt anything by studying in US and Australia? … if they come home and demand Dowries… what the f#$%^ have they learnt?
