 Help for Chile

We appeal all non-resident Nepalis and people of Nepali origins and friends to step up and help the victims of earthquake in Chili
in this time of catastrophe. 

Authorities put the death toll from Saturday's magnitude-8.8 quake at about 300, but believed the number would grow. They said
1.5 million Chileans were affected and 500,000 homes severely damaged by the mammoth temblor. (Washington Post)

Potential for Tourism Development in Nepal

Travel and Tourism is the vehicle to discovery, social and economic integration and the interconnection of the world. It is all known that tourism as the fastest growing industry with a high potential for the economic strength of any country. Nepal has a lot to offer in terms of tourism; however the country has continued to rely on the traditional and limited resources and markets to grow the industry. Product diversification and creation of new markets are the keys to the growth of Nepalese tourism. Recently, the government of Nepal has announced Visit Nepal year 2011 with the aim of attracting one million international visitors. This number seems pretty ambitious because during a similar campaign in 1998, Nepal hosted only 464,000 tourists, earning US$ 24.8 million in revenue. However, we all need to support Visit Nepal Year 2011campaign to strengthen a tourism in Nepal.
