Thanks, all.
I agree.
The labour-related problems are FAR from over for most companies in Nepal. In fact, they appear to be starting/ongoing for many private companies.
That is the sad reality under which we all have to operate in Nepal these days.
This thread was to SHARE the news of the END of such problems (after
much publicity here and elsewhere) at ONE company, which also happens
to be a media company.
I am certain that Himalmedia's Himal Khabar Patrika and Nepali Times will continue to share information, news and views on such problems and more
in days ahead.
Tetti ho.
On another note, I have just finished writing, upon their request, reference letters for most of these departed staff, many of whom are below the age
of 29.
My advice to them was: "Don't worry too much if you make your share of mistakes (of the non-criminal variety) about life, members of the opposite sex and jobs and careers before the age of 29. Assuming that you are a smart learner, you will be much wiser about those things in your 30s and 40s.
But if you go through life without making and learning from your mistakes made in your 20s, then the mistakes you will surely make later on will be much, much costlier for you in terms of everything!" :-)
The point, I told them, is to strive to live a grudge-free life, if one can help
it.
