I am happy Gurkhas are getting resettlement in UK. This will create bigger Nepalese voice in UK. More influence in UK politics with that much of gurkha population and next generation to come will even have more influence. The possible downside is now, gurkhas have no reason to send remmitence back home. They will invest the earning there in UK.
The only problem i have is how people portray Gurkha as a national pride. It just a mere foreign employment. If we had enough recruitment in Nepal itself, may be Gurkha would not have been this lucrative to seek for. This is something we should HIDE from the others we have been fighting for Britishers for THEIR cause for HALF THE MONEY Britishers would do the same job for with HALF THE RIGHTS of Britishers doing the same Job. I dont know where the word PRIDE comes into play in that. This is an embarassemt for us that our country is so shitty that our brothers, uncles, fathers actually have to fight for another country for money becasue there isnt much we can do in our own country. Nothing different than someone seeking a Job in the middleast.
