They look promising, but retaining their focus, enthusiasm and honesty will be tested through the years. Selflessness comes with a lot of sacrifice, and it is not guaranteed. Here are few examples where weak human beings like me veer from my goal if I were in Nepal –
1. A scholarship in Brown University, with a 90% chance of landing a job and a green card in United States.
2. A Mao or a Congress(i) or UML leader offering them a ‘lucrative’ political position.
3. A job in Foreign Ministry or United Nation where they could sip martini and chew pistachio every evening peering out of their million dollar apartment in Hongkong or Brussels.
4. A chance to take pictures with Rishi Dhamala, Rekha Thapa, Norbu Sherpa, Binod Chaudhary and similar likes and have those pictures posted in Kantipur or Republica (Nothing wrong with it, but if selfless people party hard with such personalities, supporters will lose faith)
One of the true example of selflessness is - there was a concert hosted by GMIN in Washington DC. Some Nepali singer I do not know of. What impressed me the most was, since it was done for fundraising purpose to build schools in Nepal, not a single organizer of the concert was allowed to go see it for free.
Now, there is another example of 'feigned' selflessness. I know this constitutional lawyer called Dinesh Tripathi, (the reason I am printing his name on the record is because he is an a$$hole) I know him very very closely. Lawyer for name's sake, he spends more time with congress leaders cursing Gyanendra, Prachanda and UML leaders. He arrived US to study, somehow got his masters (with unknown GPA and unknown major) and went back to Nepal because he couldn't find a job in Subway, let alone wallstreet. The only thing he loved about being in America was brag about his political connections in Nepal to drunk women in Mridula Koirala's party in NY and trying to get inside their pants sneaking from his wife. Now, in Nepal, everyone thinks he is a partriot because he returned back to serve his nation. He does the same thing back in Nepal, baiting vulnerable young women from villages. He travels worldwide on taxpayers money as a diplomat and puts his pictures on facebook. (Sorry about the rant, couldn't contain it)
I just pray one of these young people doesn't end up like Tripathi.
