Sarkozy,
We shouldn't automatically assume that others -just because they are rich- are less patriotic. Sure, some girls I have met who came from very wealthy families in Nepal tried to avoid Nepalese and overall acted like they were not Nepali, but strangely enough, after going to Nepal, they became very dedicated to the causes of poor women.
So despite what they do, despite the fact they want to act like the foreigners (with the statement such as I always knew that I was not going to be living in Nepal), Xavierians or Bungalowians or BNKSians do love Nepal immensely, even when they may want to stay away from Wichita-state-going, Sharada-Madhyamik-Vidhyalaya graduating guys.:)
When it comes to giving our country a political leadership, or giving our country doctors/engineers, schools from around the country where poor farmers send their kids have done a great job. I think it is time for us to ask these BNKSians or Xavierians one question when they act snobbishly:
1. Name one person from your school who has contributed to nation's politics or philonthropy or sports or law or some other related. Give us one name that has changed lives for better, or give us one name that I feel proud about.
Nobody should respect an individual just because he has married a beautiful woman and is living in the USOfA and is driving Lexus here. Let's just ask one plain question: what have you done for your country or your village or society? I think that is the sign of patriotism.
