Dear Comrade Prachanda

Author: Nepcker*

1. Declare Nepal a Socialist Republic, and make the constitution supporting farmers and workers as promised.  Nepal simply cannot develop unless it is a Socialist Republic (”Samajbadi Ganatantra”). Of course, we should also follow Madan Bhandari’s (late UML Secretary-General) “Bahudaliaya Janabad” (People’s Multi-Party Democracy).

There are basically two kinds of developed countries: capitalist and socialist. Capitalist countries like US, Germany, et cetera are developed, but because they have looted on many other countries.

Socialist countries like Russia and China achieved that level of development in just 30-40 years while capitalist countries took 300-400 years. And don’t forget other socialist countries like North Korea, Vietnam and Cuba. North Korea used to spend a heavy amount on defense, as the US was attacking it. When it just reduced 1% from the defense money, they were able to double the living standard of North Korean people. Then don’t forget Vietnam - US attacked these countries for more than a decade, spent billions of dollars to capture this, but Vietnam was able to chase the US army from Vietnam. About Cuba, please see the movie ‘Sicko’ - it has been made be an American filmmaker Michael Moore, who also made ‘Fahrenheit 9/11′.2. Make Dang the capital of Nepal - this should make Kathmandu less crowded. 

Kathmandu is heavily crowded these days. We seriously need to change the capital of our country, this will help reduce the population here to some extent.

The new capital should be a place that’s neither heavily developed (like Pokhara, which itself is pretty over-crowded), nor ultra-less-developed (like Dolpa). A perfect choice would seem Chitwan, but it’s really near from India, and if this becomes the capital, many problems would arise. Dang is two hills away from India, which makes this the best place to be Nepal’s next capital.

There should be well-planned urbanization of Dang, of course. 3. Stop the idea of dividing Nepal on the basis of castes. Make the 14 zones as the federal states.

The title says it all. I’ll explain this one too if need be. The same goes for suggestion

number 4, 5, 6, and 7.4. Dissolve the Young Communist League (YCL).5. Prachanda had said that if he would be the prez, he would bring back all the Nepalis working abroad here, and provide them with employment opportunities.Why not provide the persons of the Maoists’ private army (PLA) employment?6. Do not do any anti-national activities. 7. Ban Hindi channels, films, and promote Nepali ones.

8. Close the border with India.

Baburam said this in an interview. Doing this is no big deal, if there is the want from the Nepal Government.If they deliver all these, I’ll definitely vote for the Maoists next time.

    Two questions:

    Why would the author want Mr. Prachanda to ban Hindi channels, cinemas?

    Barbaad huncha, I love Govinda movies (:

    And, which Nepali movie have you seen lately?

    Regarding your numberwise writings:

    No 1: I agree what you wrote.

    No 2: Concept is ok but Chitawan is better than Dang though I am from Pokhara.

    No 3: Yes, caste factor is not acceptable as you mentioned.

    No 4: You could suggest to imporve their way. But how could you…? You are totally bias here.

    No 5: No comment

    No 6: Yes I agree but this suggestion is suitable to other political parties rather than Maoist.

    No 7: Unpracticeable suggestion. Internet, WTO, people’s desires and rights…, where to put them?

    No 8: Yes but need to be patient; it takes time.

    Thank you for your writing and keep on it

    regardless of which system Nepalis adopt or who heads their govt, they’ll increasingly depend on India, China or other countries unless they change their consumption pattern!

    @ShutUp:
    The Maoists, when started, had this in their agenda. So it’s better implemented. There’s complete lack of national feeling here. No respect for Nepali things.

    Yes, Nepali movies suck, but it can get better.

    @Rup Narayan Dhakal:
    2: As I said, Chitwan is indeed a better place. But that’s really near from India. This makes things difficult.

    4: They show no signs of improvement. So it’s better if they’re dissolved.

    6: It’s the Maoists that are meeting the Indian and US ambassadors time and again. Plus, they seem to be helping India in several ways.

    I can explain more if need be.
