Barking King!!!!!!

UPDATED: People are against the king's statement and are on the streets. Well Done Guys!!! See some Photos

So, King Gyanendra barked again if we have to Believe United We Blog AND yes he did. Why?

Because leaders gave him ILLEGAL space. ILLEGAL because if we had followed the principles of criminal laws, he would have been behind the bar and not in the Royal Palace guarded by some thousands of Armies. If the current government had shown that courage, he would have been travelling by Kathmandu Metropolitan Police Blue Van and not by Mercedes Benz. Not only the space he got but the leaders gave him especial space to bark. Because leaders of SPAM are not committed to fulfill the peoples' aspiration that they showed in April Uprising.

King himself is telling that he is going to take moral responsibility of the actions he did.

Good, Well Done Maharaja!!!

Now, it is time to fasten him legal responsibility, which is to punish him according to the procedure established by law.

It is nothing but the king's ploy to regain little confidence among the people who have totally discarded him. It is his trick and if we allow him for a long time to be there, he knows how to play it.

What K.P. Oli is doing? Just studying the Report submitted by Rayamajhi? How many more days we have to wait to implement the report?

When Rayamajhi Commission has already shown king Guilty, King should take more moral responsibility and if he has that courage, he must request the current Cabinet to imprison him for all the atrocities committed by him from the time of Royal Massacre.

But, king never gonna tell such things and neither we can expect him to tell such things because in the history of hitherto struggle, no oppressor and dictator has said this. No oppressor has really submitted before the peoples’ will and history is a true testimony from the time of French and English Revolution.

So, what is the option?

Current cabinet must implement the Report submitted by Ramayajhi commission. Nepalese people are no more ready to shoulder the burden of Tyapee (distorted form of Tyabe which means who takes psychotropic Drug Tablets) and dopist Monarchy who are busy in transacting "नाम नखुलेको कालो पदार्थ , Nam Nakhuleko Kalo Padartha”( Some black substances, that is unknown to us).

Before the Election of Constituent Assembly, all the criminals should be put behind the bar otherwise, they start manipulating the results in the semi-consciousness created by heavy fagging.

Current Cabinet is busy to play the “game of hide and seek” with criminals Like Kamal Thapa, Tanka Dhakal, and Badri Mandal. If this continues, then, King Gyanendra not only barks but starts biting.

Maharaj, what Moral Responsibility are you talking? If you have little consciousness of Morality, You must abdicate the thrown and should declare the end of Monarchy. If not, that day is coming soon, when my nephew will not be ready to study in the same school where your grand son will study, if I got little means to afford.

And that will be solely because of you.....That day, you king Gyanendra will spit on your face. The Day is coming soon.
I do not know how many Bloggers are royalists but the bloggers committed to Democracy/Republicanism need to discuss how we can help in the true Cause of Democracy and can help to set up the Republic Nepal.

Something like BLOGAN (Republic)

Energy Sector: Nepal India Co-operation

I have presented two news here. Both I have copied from a Indian Business News Paper THE BUSINESS LINE. One was published today and one seems to be bit old but very much related to the one which was published today. Let's see how far they can work together. From the interests of both countries, I see these projects as a path breaking events and if we can tap the India's economic boom by tieing friendly relations, then, I do not see why Nepal can not gain within short time. Hope that political rivalry and inconfidence does not hinder the economic ties.

Indian cos keen to tap Nepal's hydel potential'

Rahul Wadke

Nepal seeks a revival for the sector

Mumbai Feb. 18 Nepal has an estimated hydropower potential of 1,00,000 MW but practically nothing is harnessed. The sector remains untapped, as the Nepalese Government has limited resources. Recently, the sector was opened to private participation and a number of Indian companies have also shown keen interest in developing the hydropower sector, said Dr Ram Sharan Mahat, the Finance Minister of Nepal.

Dr Mahat was talking to Business Line on the sidelines of the Second SAARC Business Leaders Conclave. He said that the bids for Upper Karnali, Arun-III and Budhi Gandaki projects have already been called.

The bids would be opened in a few weeks. Companies like Reliance, GMR Group, Tata, L&T and the J P Group have shown interest in developing these projects, which have the capacity to generate 300 to 600 MW, he said.

India, Nepal to co-operate in hydropower sector

New Delhi, Nov. 8

India and Nepal have expressed their eagerness to cooperate in the development of Nepal's hydroelectric potential.

At a luncheon meeting in honour of the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs of Nepal, Mr K.P. Sharma Oli, organised by the Confederation of Indian Industry (CII), it emerged that several Indian companies are keen to invest in the development of Nepal's hydroelectric sector.

"Nepal hopes to forge synergistic partnerships with Indian companies, especially in developing its water resources, infrastructure, roads, and power and agri-business sectors. Hydro-power is of special interest to India to assist in its own development," said Mr Oli.

Peace is a prerequisite for attracting investment and Nepal has witnessed a decade-long insurgency, he said. "Now, we expect an end to the armed conflict very shortly. The Maoists are expected to surrender their arms. We expect this to improve the investment climate in Nepal even further," he said.

Underlining the importance of hydro-power development, the Ambassador of India to Nepal, Mr Shivashankar Mukherjee, said there was great interest by several Indian companies to enter this sector in Nepal at the Bilateral Power Summit held in Kathmandu in September. The two countries will shortly set up cross-border transmission highways that will spur a new trade in power.

"The renewal of the Indo-Nepal trade treaty in March 2007 will address non-tariff and para-tariff barriers to imports from Nepal, services, manufacturing, education, health, tourism and IT and ITES," Mr Mukherjee said. Since the agreement was signed in 1996, bilateral trade has grown to $2 billion and 40 per cent of the tourists who visit Nepal by air come from India. There has been a 40 per cent jump in investments from India into Nepal.

World Cup 2007 and thst's CRICKET

About Cricket

Today Morning, I spared around 2 hours to watch Australia v. New Zealand Cricket match and especially to watch how New Zealand thrashes Australia after I knew from http://www.cricinfo.com/ that New Zealand is slowly marching towards victory. I was very happy when the Australia lost the match. Undoubtedly, Australia was the best team and still the best but their unnecessarily aggressive behaviour makes them worse. I remember in recently concluded CB Series, one of the players from New Zealand termed Australia as the bunch of “egomaniacs” and in fact, really they are. The match had started from 3 O’clock in the morning and there were no possibilities/chances to watch the Australian batting as sleeping is more important for me.

The New Zealand had a comfortable victory over Australia by 5 wickets in this Chappell-Hadlee Trophy. There is still a match to go in this series but New Zealand has already won two matches and has sealed the door of victory. The last match can be of little importance to the world except for Australia to salvage the grief of two series losses. That is, the earlier one was the loss with England in CB Series though Australia had comfortably thrashed England in Test Matches by winning the matches by 5-0 white wash after many many (more than 80+) years. I am seeing the flashes of News in T.V that Australia had lost their First Position in ICC Ranking almost after 6 years. For the first time, the ICC Ranking was introduced in 2002, and till today, Australia was comfortably at No.1.

It seems that this last match on Tuesday between New Zealand and Australia will be the last match for any country in limited overs One Day International Match before World Cup kick-starts in West Indies in the month of March.

The ICC Cricket World Cup, generally referred to as the Cricket World Cup, is the premier international championship of men's One-day International (ODI) cricket. The event is organised by the sport's governing body, the International Cricket Council (ICC), with preliminary qualification rounds leading up to a finals tournament which is held every four years.

It is a tournament held quadrenially between all Test-playing nations (currently 10 nations), plus qualifiers. The WORLD CUP CRICKET, 2007 tournament will be held in the West Indies in 2007 and will consist of 16 teams.
Among the South Asian Countries, India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, and Bangladesh will be playing in 2007 World Cup Cricket.

The top two teams from each of the four groups will qualify for the second round, the Super Eight Series.

The last being the most authentic as this is the Web site of International Cricket Council, the prime governing body of Cricket all over the world.

Wikipedia says this:

“The 2007 ICC Cricket World Cup will be hosted by the West Indies from March 13 to April 28, 2007. There will be a total of fifty one matches played in the 2007 ICC Cricket World Cup, which is three matches less than the 2003 ICC Cricket World Cup, despite the two extra teams taking part. It will be contested by 16 nations divided into 4 groups of 4 teams. The top two teams from each group will then compete in a "Super 8" format, similar to the previous "Super 6" format, from which the semi-finalists will be decided.” Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2007_Cricket_World_Cup

The Rose is Red.....a Red Valentine!!!!!

The rose is red,
The violet's blue,
Pinks are sweet,
And so are you!

And after that dot dot dot ……………………………… I love you!

You must have heard, read, and most probably written it many times. This is one of such perfect rhymes that people use when they express their love. They “really love” or they “simply joke” entirely depend on them but people love to put it either on paper or on cards when the day they wait arrives. Why I am talking about Love?

Valentine’s Day, that is 14^th February is round the corner and I am writing these words despite my exams here (In fact, earlier I was thinking to write something about my examinations also but I decided to dedicate this Entry Entirely by “Making Love”!!!!) Ohoooo…… (You understand what I mean).

Exams come and go many times in a year but valentine is just for a day. The people who have bf or gf must be in a great jovial mood or they also may be happy who are planning to propose someone. Otherwise, for a general public or Aam Janata, it does not really mean anything except one more day. But, who cares whether it is a great day or not for aam janaata, it is definitely the “hot n happening” day for them who loves someone. So, I am talking freely about love.

And Love, what does that mean really? What is this? You ask a celebrity whether (preferably she) loves someone? She most often candidly answers YES!! To whom? Wait man! Don’t Lose your control………She is going to speak and she says, Yes, To her parents, brothers, sisters, Friends, Grandparents, and and……and may be Labrador in her home…………Oh Shit! What is she answering? We expect something different and by different, you know what I am talking about but she is not ready to open her mouth on that matter. So, Guys round the globe, this valentine, I am talking about Love but not that love about how much I love my parents.

Then about whom? No one…….Nobody……….I am not so lucky as some of you guys might be, But expectations are high here……J J 14^th February has not finished yet. It has just started. You know the story about whom, in fact, how valentine day came into effect. It’s basically there was a real old chap called valentine and he did something and something………..So, we can love today freely. Oh My salute to that Chap………..ummmmm………oh yea valentine.

After reading most of the bloggers in the Nepalese Blogrold, I am writing here. May be I replicate same and such feelings that they have expressed. And If I do concur with them, or with especially some Girl Bloggers, may be this valentine day which I was waiting for.

In fact, there is no scarcity of girls around me……….Oh yea!!! But they are not type of me…… You know. So, People like me keep on waiting in each and every Valentine Day. But gain with a great hope.

Now, let’s talk truly, how people will celebrate their Valentine Day if they are not together, if they are not staying together and because of many many reasons, you can not go and meet her. Think about it, if you are in New Road but your beloved is in New York……Hard Real hard to face the time………is not it? I know man and I am facing. Got the clue, wherever you are, but in this valentine Day, jus wanna say u gal “Happy Valentine Day” to you to my gal who I have yet to discover. Really?

If you understand Nepali, immediately follows a Nepali Gazal:

(One thing I do not know whether they are truly gazal or not but this is my fine effort. Plus after being unable to feed my brain the intricacies of Law of Taxation in our 5^th Hour, I turned my mind to this Poem/Gazal whatever and this is the fruit before us. This will be my Valentine Special gazal.)

तीम्रो लागी भनेर नै प्रेम् को माला गासेको छु
मेरो मुटु मेरो माया माला सगै टासेको छु

तीम्रो चुम्बन तीम्रो माया म कहाँ वीरसन्छु र
अतीत सम्झी पागल सरी एक्लै एक्लै हासेको छु

तीमी नजाउ मलाई बीर्सी म भन्दा धेरै टाढा
हाम्रो संसार सजाउने आसै आस्मा बाचेँको छु

तीम्रो लागी भनेर नै प्रेम् को माला गासेको छु
मेरो मुटु मेरो माया माला सगै टासेको छु

Silly Concept of Gross National Happiness

Hi, I found this Article in one of the Blog pages. It is very old but still found very interesting to read. I generally do not copy the stuffs from another blog but for my beloved readers, I am copying this materials. Being a law student, I am very sensible about Copyright Laws. So, I want to clarify here that the copyright is entirely vested on the original writer whosoever he may be. This is copied here just as a fair use for critical reporting of the silly trend that one of the tiny nations in the world, The Kingdom of Bhutan, is using to fool the world. No Readers may copy this Article from here and I suggest you to follow the proper instructions to publish as may be mentioned by the Original Writer in the Blog. I suggest you to read the last comment of this Entry in the original blog where it has been published if you happened to visit that Blog as well.

Here it goes:
"

What is happiness? In the United States and in many other industrialized countries, it is often equated with money.

Economists measure consumer confidence on the assumption that the resulting figure says something about progress and public welfare. The gross domestic product, or G.D.P., is routinely used as shorthand for the well-being of a nation.

But the small Himalayan kingdom of Bhutan has been trying out a different idea.

In 1972, concerned about the problems afflicting other developing countries that focused only on economic growth, Bhutan’s newly crowned leader, King Jigme Singye Wangchuck, decided to make his nation’s priority not its G.D.P. but its G.N.H., or gross national happiness.

When thinking about GDP and GNH, one has to be very careful about what one is aggregating. GDP is an accurate measure of what it measures: aggregate annual production of final goods and services in an economy denominated in monetary terms.

GDP does not aggregate cows, or beauty or whatever one may mistakenly think it does. Thus saying that the GDP does not accurately tell me anything about how many cows are in the economy, or complaining that GDP does not tell me anything about “the total amount of beauty is in an economy,” is as silly as saying that GDP does not tell me whether the people in the country are happy or not.

So those who make that complain are complaining that the tape measure is flawed because it does not help in figuring out the temperature of a liquid. It is not meant to do so in the first place.

Now there is something called happiness or satisfaction. A person can be said to be happy or satisfied. That is a feeling, a subjective experience. I can say that “I am happy” just like I can say “I am rich.” Those two look similar but the statements are qualitatively different. There is an objective validity to the statement “I am rich” because my wealth can be measured and verified externally. But happiness is subjective and does not allow interpersonal comparisons, while richness does. We can definitely say how A’s wealth compares to B’s wealth but cannot say how A’s happiness compares to B’s happiness.

If even interpersonal comparisons of happiness is mostly meaningless, attempting to define a measure which aggregates the “happiness” of millions of people clearly leaps over the bounds of the silly and lands somewhere in idiotic stupidity land.

I have never considered the GDP to be the end-all and be-all of an economy, any more than I consider the monthly income of a person to be the only relevant characteristic of a person. Perhaps some do, but then people believe in all sorts of silly stuff. Some economists do mess around with GDP growth rates and that is important, just like your tax accountant messes around with your income statements and your investments. Just because your income does not fully define you does not mean that your tax accountant is a myopic narrowminded individual or that the job of preparing your financial statement is meaningless.

I think that those who complain that GDP is not all that matters are making a valid but rather trivial complaint. I have yet to meet a single intelligent mature person–and most economists I have met fit that bill–who believes that GDP is anything more than a measure of economic activity and that too narrowly defined economic activity.

What I don’t understand is the attempt by the detractors of GDP aping a metric which they have perhaps misunderstood. They are in effect saying, “GDP does not measure happiness. So we must come up with an alternate aggregate measure we will call Gross National Happiness which will be more appropriate.”

That is Gross National Silliness."

Only Tata Indicom sucks?

When I was in Kathmandu in last December, 2006, I got an opportunity to perceive the little development that Nepal had amidst continuous violence. The pace of development was not so disappointing despite the fact that country was marred by violence. One of the things to talk was the boom in the Mobile Telecommunications Technology emerging some 2 or 3 more players in addition to Nepal Telecommunications Corporation.

While my brother Pravat and I were talking about the development about Mobile Phones, I asked about the service of Customer Care that they provide. He asked, "What type of Customer Care?"

I said him any type of customer care if we need their help. I explained how customer care works in India and how they help like if you have problems in Recharging or if you want to know what the existing tarrifs rates applicable are.

He just laughed for a while and answered me that if we need to know what are the tariffs rates applicable for the time being then, we need to buy a GORKHAPATRA Copy of that date when it was published and need to be saved forever so that we can check it anytime we want. He further added that anyone can do recharge if he knows how to read because in every recharge Card, there will be instructions about it. I stunned for a while and said, "Okay" and just added few words how it works in India.

In India, there are various mobile companies and I do not know exactly how many of them. There are Reliance India, Tata Indicom, Airtel, Idea, MTNL and so many of them.

Each Mobile company has customer care and you can ask anytime what you want to know about that mobile company by calling their customer care and that too of course, free of charge.

I told my brothers how we make fun of customer care employee by asking some absurd and absurd questions in middle of the night and compelled him to explain all the existing plans.......It was and still sometimes, becomes a kind of wild fun.

I have appreciated all their support in the past except the one that I recently faced.

I am using Tata Indicom Mobile. I had bought this mobile about 6 months back under their Tata Indicom True paid value scheme where Incoming for a year is free irrespective of you recharge it any more or not, inter alia, some other fascinating offers.

I bought a Recharge Card of Rs. 357 and tried to recharge but it responded that I can not recharge it because of some problems. It referred me to contact customer Care and my god, Customer care died in the sense its number was always busy.

I tried so many times both to recharge and contact customer care but I was not successful. Then, I had recourse to Email. I sent them email explaining the situation and they responded immediately telling me that they are attending my problem. It was a kind of relief but after that they started suggesting me some absurd ways to make recharge successful. I followed one by one but no way man, it was not going to be recharged soon.

And, finally I had to write them this mail as my final shot.........which I have presented in my blog. My problem was solved after I went to their Customer Care office with my mobile only after 2 days after I wrote my final mail to them but it left very disappointing impression of TATA INDICOM on Me.

And my question is, "Only my Phone TATA Indicom sucks or all Mobiles are like this?" My final mail goes like this:

TO TATA INDICOM CUSTOMER CARE:

“I am writing this mail to you after giving enough time to rectify the error but you have shown pathetic response towards my complaint.

I am compelled to write this mail again because the kind of service you have provided despite my repeated complaints and your repeated absurd suggestions shows your negligence and recklessness to provide the service and it amounts the "deficiency of service" on the part of service provider and I have been compelled to take this matter very seriously in the future thinking to explore other alternatives.

You might have forgotten the matter what I am talking as your non-commitment towards the customer satisfaction is very glaring from the kind of responses you have given me.

When I put forth my problem before you, I got your reply which was appreciative at that moment but I did not know that you are expert in lip service rather than providing a good service towards the customer. Tell me what is the use of mere words? Howsoever beautifully they might have been written, unless our problem will be solved within a reasonable time.

I gave you very much reasonable time thinking that it is a technical problem and needs time and there can be technical errors sometimes which are beyond human controls. I gave you more than 96 hours by the time I am writing this mail. That is 4 days full to rectify the problem. Meanwhile, in this time, I was so many times in touch in your local AP Customer Care.”

I got reply from them saying that they got a confirmation from the concerned that the amount would be posted in my account.

BUT IT WAS FALSE AND WAS REALLY PISSED OFF WITH THEM:

Then, I continue my mail like this:

Imagine, how a person feels if he gets water in a desert??? I felt the same happiness....I thanked the customer care and went to recharge my mobile but then realised what a rubbish mail it was. How you can say the blatant lies disregarding the little reputation the institution has. What kind of message you were going to deliver by talking such a perverse, unfounded, baseless and irresponsible things where a genuine problem has been raised.

All my happiness was shattered in a way somebody breaks the house of glass in the middle of the night by throwing a stone when you are sleeping after toiling hard all the day in 45 degree centigrade temperature!!!!!!!! And imagine what happens to your situation when there is no one to pity on you!!!!!!

Have you ever heard what does "customer is a king slogan"? Or is this only to talk in Newspaper and TV? What type of Customer service you have?

You may have very big advertisements in paper and TV. You may earn millions of dollars in one Quarter of the year? But, is it the profit that you earn from giving quality service? Think about it.

I thought that I am the only one who has suffered from this problem but when I did a little bit of googling, I found that how much pathetic your service is and even the customer service is. It seems that you have failed in all branches of telecommunication and it's time for you to pull out. Please please please......for the god's sake, do not loot millions of rupees of poor customers............

Sir, Make your head cool and study little about these problems:

May be u can give some better service in the future? Nothing much to say and almost lost hope on u guys............ Did my plight and hue and cry make any sense to you--à you with heart of stone and who are sleeping there like kumbhakarna and are busy in answering mails in irresponsible way?”

Then, Email is over…….Can you imagine how badly I was pissed off. J
