  • How often do you hear about Nepal in any context? Most people can’t even point to it on a map and keep asking me how my time was in Tibet.

    They have a whole history exhibit in the old Kathmandu palace that talks about the Maoist insurgency and their role in dismantling the monarchy prior to the royal massaacre.

    Even so, the current government has been so ineffectual in some areas that some protestors have demonstrated to have the monarchy back. Part of this is because the Maoists and other communist groups lost their fangs when they started these coalitions and the government gets into standstills where nothing gets accomplished except the continual repaving of the roads to and from the airport whenever a foreign diplomat is due.

    This is cool and good news.
