nunu  - swiss promise   |208.185.196.xxx |2009-11-05 15:39:18 At times when I read Nepal news.com and see that so and so country have committed in giving millions of rupees to see our health system running smoothly, education system been run and that children are getting proper education. My question to our politician is do the money that we receive gets put into a genuine use or does it get pocketed by the politician to build their so called "MAHAL". I think once the money reach's to the Nepali government the foreign countries that have donated the money should follow up and see that each and every penny gets put into good use ok ok  - who'll ge most of the money   |98.98.104.xxx |2009-11-05 13:30:38 Tehi maoist and some people who will in power that time G TAMANG  - LESSON   |221.24.170.xxx |2009-11-05 08:40:30 BEG stand on others legs.
