INGO WATCH

The Kathmandu Post 27 July 2012 I t was good to know that the government finally decided to bring the funding system of INGOs under the purview of the Ministry of Finance, but it should have been done long ago (“Govt set to bring INGOs under MoF purview” July 25, Money 1) . This process will definitely help the government to directly monitor INGOs’ funding sources in and outside Nepal, but program budgeting and budget spending should also be closely watched to ensure the quality implementation and achievement of such development programs.

Looking closely at the on-going fragile political situation of Nepal created by the major political parties, it seems that the post second Jana Andolan achievement may get slipped out of our hands sooner or later. They completely failed to draft new constitution in the last four years. What a shame act was this for them? They are still continuing to show their power hunger attitudes even at this politically fragile situation. Nepal is passing politically through an extremely difficult time.

The on-going political situation has been result of the tug of war between the parties with the end result being nation being pulled into political turmoil. If they continue to act irresponsibly, the chances of materializing the post Second Jana Andolan achievements seem dismal. Rai Biren Bnagdel Maharajgunj, Kathmandu .  on line jobs  

Degrading national sovereignty

The Himalayan Times 24 June 2012 Degrading national sovereignty It was good to know that the newly formed CPN-M seemed worrying over degrading national sovereignty and national independence, as  reported in “ CPM-N worries over degrading sovereignty” (THT, June 27, Page 5), at this time when the nation is passing through politically precarious situation due to political uncertainty and political polarization among the political parties. It is very sad and unfortunate to see them still continuing to engage in power and blame games leaving the national agenda aside. They never seemed bothered about the national interest and the hard lives the general people are passing through for a long time. They simply are seen engaged in their own petty political interests. How long the nation and its people are to suffer with these so called senior leaders’ gross negligence, irresponsible and immoral acts?
