Jantarei,

I hear your frustration. Your ideas are good ones. Don't give up. Nepal needs the passion of people like you. It is through feeling the frustration and outrage of youth like you that America created an organization like the one you are suggesting called Americorps:

Jantarie, I agree with you about creating rules based on National emergency. Healthcare in Nepal is a national emergency and shame on all of us Nepalese for not seeing it as such. I feel that you see Nepal's healthcare problem quite clearly.

No one asks for a national emergency. But when there is one, it should be a crime for people to ignore it. Certainly, the nation of Israel was faced by a national emergency because of the threat that it faces from the Arab nations that surround it. They needed to take concrete action against this.
So what did the Israeli government do? They took positive steps to ensure that Israel would always have a strong military by making a rule that all Jews in Israel need to serve in the army. They made it  Mandatory for everyone over the age of 18 to serve in the Israeli army.

Nepal's healthcare system is in such a poor state that we have a national emergency. Who can deny this? It is mandatory for all Nepalese to address healthcare reform in Nepal.

Here is how everyone in Israel is forced to accept the nation's security problem as their personal problem:

I really like your idea: We need to force everyone in Nepal to accept Nepal's health problems as their personal problem.

How do we do this?
