...Places which are densely populated are habitable environments e.g. Europe. If we look at the population distribution of Nepal, we find that the population is not equally distributed in all parts of the country. The distribution of the population is unequal due to the diversity in land structure, climate, soil and available natural resources and means. More population is concentrated in the places where the facilities such as transportation, employment, education, health services, communication, etc. are available. The places where these facilities are not available have less population pressure. For example, the Terai region of Nepal has many facilities such as employment, transportation, communication, etc and because these, more population is concerned in this region. But the mountainous region of Nepal is pretty cold with difficult land topography. The facilities of transportation communication, employment etc. is also not available there. Therefore, the population is sparsely distributed in the mountainous region of Nepal. The value for Population density (people per sq. km of land area) in Nepal was 208.99 as of 2010. As the graph below shows, over the past 49 years this indicator reached a maximum value of 208.99 in 2010 and a minimum value of 69.35 in 1961. The population census 2011 (2068) has shown the geographical distribution of population of Nepal as follows. |Region |Population...

...Management accounting in Nepalese perspective The history of account keeping in Nepal by the government is very old. Mandev, the first king of Nepal in Lichhavi period, had circulated the first coin called "Mananka" during the period 464-491 A.D. similarly, King Mahendra Malla had circulated the coin named "Mahendra Malla" in the Malla period. This seems to be the main step to record the nation transactions in a proper way and manner. It is said that a small number of financial transaction used to be performed in Lichhavi and Malla periods. It proves there was a certain form of accounting to record transactions. written records of accounting have been traced back to the 18th centuries in Nepal. After the unification of the nation in 1768(1825 B.S.) by the King Prithivi Narayan Shah the great, the chief of the district level solders used to keep the accounts of the government offices. In 1814 a book called "Laldhadda" was created for recording matters about land management and another book called "Mothdhadda" was also used for keeping accounts. these two records were important steps in the history of accounting in Nepal. Again, after a long gap in 1868 an office called "kitab Khana" was established for recording the salaries paid to government personnel, which is still in use. In the process of development of accounting in 1879 Kharidar Gunawanta, a senior official of that time propounded "Syaha Sresta Pranali" which was an advanced form of accounting and was up to fiscal year...

...Introduction 1. By and large, Nepal remained a peaceful kingdom for more than two centuries. The country witnessed armed revolution twice by the Nepali Congress in between 1950 and early 1960s. The first succeed it throwing out the Rana regime that ruled the kingdom for 194 years, while the other did not. Maoist people’s war was third in sequence that necessitated a peace process. Basically, a Peace process can be understood as a social phenomenon, which acquires political overtone, when initiated to resolve an armed conflict carried out between the state on one side and the armed outfit, on the other, to restore peace finally. It is necessitated in an explosive situation when innumerable lives and properties are destroyed and many more innocent people’s lives are threatened with no possibility of subsiding of the flare-up in sight. It may be set in motion and facilitated by the concerned parties themselves, or other affected sides and their well-wishers. It may begin with the declaration of the cessation of hostilities or ceasefire by the conflicting sides. The armed conflict may have different forms such as, political, social, cultural, ethnic, religious etc. In the process, several stages have to be undergone for building mutual confidence between the parties in context in order to re-establish the normal relation between them to reach the final goal. The Insurgency 2. The Samyukta Morcha Nepal, the legal front of the Nepal Communist Party of Nepal, Maoist (CPN-(M), had submitted...

...Girl Trafficking in Nepal Tens of thousands of Nepalese girls and women are trafficked each year. They end up in brothels as sex workers or in homes and factories as slaves. They are trafficked within Nepal and to countries such as India, Saudi Arabia, Malaysia, Hong Kong and the UAE. Nepal is traditionally a patriarchal society where women in general and girl children in particular are treated as second class citizens. While this is changing in the cities and larger towns where people are more educated, discrimination still exists in rural areas, especially among low caste and marginalized indigenous communities. Girls are simply not valued as much as their brothers. This discrimination manifests itself in many ways, but one of the most insidious is the failure to understand the significance educating a girl child. One of the reasons girls are valued less is because, traditionally, they have not been educated. And if they have little value, why educate them. This self perpetuating spiral of ignorance and worthlessness results in girls being seen as expendable commodities, at least in relation to boys, and known risks are put aside if there is a chance that she can find work and send back much needed cash to her family. Girls and their families are tricked with promises of good paying jobs in glamorous cities, lured by proposals of marriage from handsome strangers and sometimes just taken and sold by middlemen known as dalals. Nepal is a source country for many migrant workers...

...By: Ram Adhikari February 12, 2015 Life as a Refugee Have you ever imagined what you would do if your life was controlled by others? Or, if you had to survive with the food that is provided to you and your family by others every other week? Have you ever lived your life depending on the person who is next to you? Asking for food to eat when you were hungry? Life is not always easy growing up in a refugee camp. It is not like growing up in a decent family where every family member has a well-paying job, nice house to live, enough food to eat, and good clothes to wear. I was born in a Bhutanese refugee camp of Nepal. In the camp, there was a lack of everything. For basic needs, there was not a enough food to eat, not good clothes to wear, limited access to proper education, and few opportunities. There was not proper place to sleep, not good water to drink. In the miserable situation of the refugee camp, it was very strenuous to find any kind of job. My parents were not well educated to have a decent paying job to send me to private school. My father usually muddled through minimum wage jobs to fulfill our wants. In the camp, every house and school had unfinished flat roofs. I can still remember in winter, we could the feel thunder storm outside of the house sitting in the kitchen in front of a burning fire. Water would not stop dropping from every house because of unfinished flat roofs. Every year many people died from various diseases like asthma, cancer, tuberculosis, diabetes...

...1. Introduction The Hariyo Ban program is an ambitious program designed to benefit nature and people in Nepal. It was started with the vision of reducing adverse impacts of climate change and threats to biodiversity, by restoring and conserving forests while improving livelihoods, and building resilience to climate change in both people and ecosystems in 2011. It works on three core interwoven components – biodiversity conservation, sustainable landscapes and climate adaptation – with livelihoods, gender and social inclusion being important crosscutting themes. Hariyo Ban is a USAID-funded consortium of four core partner organizations – World Wildlife Fund (WWF), Cooperative for Assistance and Relief Everywhere (CARE), Federation of Community Forestry Users, Nepal (FECOFUN) and the National Trust for Nature Conservation (NTNC) – with WWF serving as the managing partner. The program finds its inspiration from the popular saying ‘Hariyo Ban Nepal Ko Dhan’ (Healthy green forests are the wealth of Nepal) which emphasizes the links between people and forests that underpins the project’s approach (Sundar Safalta, part 1). CHAL covers the 32057 square km area from Terai 200 m to Himal 8091 m above to see level in central Nepal. The landscape includes all or part of 19 districts and is drained by six major perennial rivers and their tributaries of the broader Gandaki River System. In this region varity of climates (hot in terai to cold in Himalaya) can be found. More than 35 percent...

...changing world around him and his responsibility towards it. His story is one of inspiration borne out of struggle and torment, the relentless pursuit of an aesthetic ideal, and one man’s determination to make a difference. Early beginnings Being born into a relatively affluent Newar family, Dwarika Das Shrestha was sent to school in India at the tender age of six. With less than one percent of the Nepali population being literate, in the early 1950s, as Nepal took its first steps towards democracy, it was ill equipped to face the challenges of modernisation. It stood at a position where it could neither fully embrace the dramatic changes that modernity brought, nor fully comprehend the value and potential of its ancient cultural heritage. Dwarika Das Shrestha completed his education with a degree in law and commerce in the early 1950s, and returned to Nepal with the dream of helping Nepal regain its past glory. His first business was the establishment of the first hotel in Nepal, Paras Hotel, in 1952, at a time when Nepal was yet to establish itself as a tourist destination. The hotel’s primary patrons were Indian and Nepali pilgrims who came to visit the Pashupati Temple. Back then, charging religious pilgrims for shelter was considered sacrilegious and earned Dwarika Das the wrath of his family. In the late 1950s, Dwarika Das Shrestha bought the land upon which The Dwarika’s Hotel is now located and built on it a small family home, incorporating into the design some of the...

...expanding industry in today’s world. On the basis of tourist’s activities, tourism is broadly classified into six types: namely, pleasure tourism, business tourism, recreational tourism, sporting tourism, cultural tourism and conference tourism. By dividing these types we can say that, there is possibility of tourism in Nepal. Nepal is renowned for natural beauty, land of Mount Everest and holy birth of Lord Buddha. Nepal’s biological diversity, amazing geographical set up and its social cultural richness are major attractions for the international tourism. UNESCO has declared to involve nearly a dozen of Nepalese places and monuments in it’s “World Heritage Site”. The panoramic scenery bio-diversity, diverse ethnicity of people and their cultural richness, hundreds of scattered Hindus temples and Buddhists monasteries throughout the country are the major sources of attraction in Nepal. Tourism has received a unique place in Nepal. It plays a vital role in economic development. It is the major attractive source of national income. Tourism is the only viable operation that can help to eliminate poverty and decrease educated unemployed youths. In this way, Nepal can be able to establish the medium and large scale industries to increase the productivity and national income. The term intermediaries can be defined as any dealer who acts as a link in the chain of distribution between the company and its customers. In the tourism industry, travel agents, tour operators etc. are considered...

...beauty of the landscapes does not compare to the man made buildings and streets. The film seems to reveal the theme that modern society and technology has corrupted nature and that we should get back in touch with nature. 3. After watching Baraka, I got the message that it is important to be exposed to different cultures and appreciate the nature aspect of the world. 4. In this case, the absence of voice and text does put the film at an disadvantage because showing is much more effective than telling. The theme is clearly revealed through the footages shown and dialogue and text would be too distracting. 5. The Tibetan buddhist monks prayer near Swayambunath stupa, Kathmandu, Nepal is applied to culture in the movie.Sao Paulo, Brazil is applied to city life in the movie.

What Nischal felt is also felt by many other students as well. The International students, who come from a completely different culture and environment, face difficulty in adjusting to a new place. Language barrier is a problem they experience most. "Everything is different here, I am finding it hard to adjust here", said one of my friend who is also a freshman here at ULM. Change in culture affects the students' mentality and they have a hard time coping with the new environment. Students really cannot concentrate on their studies and they find it difficult to maintain their grades due to emotional...

...John Gonzalez When I started reading this article of Bhutan I was amazed that it took the people of this country so long to get television. Mainly because the King of Bhutan finally welcomed the arrival of modern communications technology to his Buddhist kingdom in June 1999. They were the last country in the world to legalize television. The reason for that is their religion, they believe that don’t need technology. Bhutan is an interior country in South Asia at the eastern end of the Himalayas. It is surrounded to the north by China and to the south, east and west by India. To the west, it is separated from Nepal by the Indian state of Sikkim, while farther south it is separated from Bangladesh by the Indian states of Assam and West Bengal. Bhutan's capital and largest city is Thimphu. It’s a small country that no one dares to bother mainly because they’re so distant from everyone. Alexis Bloom is a journalist and documentary filmmaker and has been traveling. When she heard about that television was coming to Bhutan she was eager to go there and make a documentary about it. For centuries, Bhutan followed a policy of self-imposed separation and organized change, with a specific effort on the protection of its unique olden culture and paid little to no attention to the world around it. So far, Bhutan has been a country that numbers more monks than soldiers, and that cares more for general happiness than the national merchandise. But things could change quickly change. The almost...

He left behind a large influence and lives new lives influencing others. Days before Prince Siddhartha’s birth, his mother had a strange dream in which she was treated to a bath in lake Anotta of the Himalayas and then a white elephant walked around her three times and entered her womb through her right side. When he was born his parents were delighted but sadly, did not get to celebrate long, for Queen Maha Maya, his mother, died only a week later. Saddened, Siddhartha's father looked for some good news and convinced a holy man to forecast his son’s future. He proclaimed that...
