	February 8: The Jufal airport in Dolpa had to be shut on Thursday due to accumulation of snow on the runway. Heavy snowfall that occurred in the upper reaches of the district since Thursday morning has obstructed the regular flights to and from the airport, according to Rastriya Samachar Samiti (RSS).</p>
<p>
	The state-owned news agency reported that thick snow piled up on the runway has obstructed the landing while extremely poor visibility has affected the flights to and from the airport.</p>
<p>
	Bal Kumar Sharma, chief of the civil aviation office in Jufal, said there were slim chances of resuming the air services for a few days. The snowfall and chilling cold have created difficulties for the locals as well.</p>
<p>
	The same scenario has been seen in Jumla, Humla and Mugu districts as well.</p>
<p>
	Along with it, the preparation classes being run for students appearing in the SEE exams have also been affected due to cold.</p>
<p>
	&ldquo;The students are failing to attend the classes at schools,&rdquo; RSS quoted Deepak Parajuli, a teacher at Janaprabha secondary school Liku, as saying.</p>

	February 7: Nepal&rsquo;s trade treaty with India is in need of substantial revisions in order for Nepal to be able to address its ballooning trade deficit with its biggest trade partner, experts suggested during a recent interaction held in Kathmandu.</p>
<p>
	Trade experts, industrialists and former policymakers expressed this view at the interaction on the topic Nepal-India Trade Treaty: Opportunities and Challenges, jointly organised by the Ministry of Industry, Commerce and Supplies and South Asia Watch on Trade, Economics and Environment (SAWTEE) on February 5. According to the organisers, this programme was organised to gather inputs from stakeholders at a time when the Government of Nepal is in the process of negotiating a review of the trade treaty with the Indian government.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>
<p>
	Making his presentation on Nepal-India Trade Treaty: Some Avenues for Review, Dr Posh Raj Pandey, chairman of SAWTEE, said that there are many issues that need to be discussed and revised in the treaty in view of the facts such as a burgeoning trade deficit, failure to participate in value chains, the presence of non-tariff barriers, preference erosion, the adverse impact of the treaty on producers of primary agricultural goods, inadequate trade facilitation measures and lack of or slow targeted support for building trade capacities.</p>
<p>
	He further added that the government needs to put forward the proposal to remove the provision of tariff rate quotas on vegetable fats, acrylic yarn, copper and zinc oxide, waive Integrated Goods and Services Tax (IGST) for the products produced by small units, allow Nepal to import third country goods from India for specific purposes, and also remove the time-bound nature of the trade treaty to ensure greater certainty.&nbsp;</p>
<p>
	Shekhar Golchha, senior vice president of the Federation of Nepalese Chamber of Commerce and Industries (FNCCI), said that Nepal has not been able to promote its exports as the cost of doing business is very high and the business environment was also plagued by political instability and energy crisis, among others, but now that these issues have been resolved to a certain extent, the focus now needs to be on developing infrastructure at the border areas to promote export.</p>
<p>
	Hari Bhakta Sharma, president of the Confederation of Nepalese Industries (CNI), said that the treaty needs a paradigm shift with revisions as it has only benefited India.</p>
<p>
	Former secretary Purushottam Ojha said that some of the favourable provisions of the treaty remain unimplemented. Such provisions include a partial rebate of excise duty on exports by Nepali medium and large firms that can prove that their cost of production is higher than that of their counterpart firms in India; a pledge by India to help Nepal build its capacity concerning standards and testing; local-level committee comprising local stakeholders in border areas to address trade frictions. He urged the government to work out ways to have such provisions implemented.</p>
<p>
	Participants stressed the fact that the treaty needs to be reviewed before renewing. They further added that Nepal needs to build its strength and capacity in order to promote its exports.</p>

	February 7: At a time when the government is moving ahead with its plan for the construction of an international airport in Nijgadh, environmental activists have appealed to the government to build the airport elsewhere arguing that the construction of the airport will have negative impact on the natural environment and wildlife of Nijgadh.</p>
<p>
	Environmental activists say that said that the environment impact assessment (EIA) of Nijgadh lacks extensive study of the area. Therefore, the environmental activists and the other stakeholders strongly appealed to the government during a press meet held on Wednesday, February 6, to conduct environment impact assessment (EIA) in other feasible areas.</p>
<p>
	Environmental activists claimed that it is worthless to construct a multi-million rupees airport that would affect countless wildlife and thousands of trees spread across 8,046 hectors of the rich natural forest renowned as Char Kose Jhadi in Province 2.</p>
<p>
	They stated that the Char Kose Jhadi, which is the national pride of the country, will be destroyed by the big national project. Instead, they suggested that Murtiya, which is 33 km east of the proposed site, can be appropriate for the airport. The said that Murtiya does not have forest areas and is far from the hills as well as the Indian border.</p>
<p>
	Kapil Chitrakar, an expert on forest and wildlife, said that they have submitted petitions to the Ministry of Culture, Tourism and Civil Aviation (MoCTCA), the Ministry of Forest and Environment and the Prime Minister&rsquo;s Office. He said that 141 different critics, forest experts, journalists, entrepreneurs, industrialists, environmental activists among others have signed the petitions.</p>
<p>
	Dr Dwarika Dhungel, an analyst and former secretary said, &ldquo;We are not standing against the developmental projects of the country which are indeed required for reliving traffic congestion at Tribhuvan International Airport (TIA). However, the project should be carried out in an eco-friendly manner. Deforestation of Nijgadh forest which protects over 500 species of birds, 22 species of rare vegetation including shorea robusta (Sal) tree and 23 varieties of mammals will adversely affect the environment.&rdquo;</p>
<p>
	According to environmental activist Prabhu Budathoki , the deforestation of the Chure range will lead to desertification of Terai and Madhes affecting the livelihood of the people. Likewise, environmental activist Chanda Rana said Nijgadh&rsquo;s EIA resembles the format of hydropower project. Rana also pleaded the government to conduct EIA for feasibility of the Murtiya instead of Nijgadh.</p>
<p>
	The council of minister had allocated area in Nijgadh for the construction of the airport on March 13, 2015.</p>

	February 7: Some government agencies and local governments were found to have procured goods and services without soliciting bids, according to a report published by Rastriya Samachar Samiti (RSS).<br />
	The 2018/19 report of the Office of Auditor General &ndash; the constitutional budget oversight agency &ndash; has painted a bleak picture of most of the district-based government bodies.<br />
	It is mandatory for the concerned public entity to call quotations for open competition. Nevertheless, the competition has been made with limited forms and entities, RSS reported. Such practices have created ample spaces for fiduciary malaises, the report stated.<br />
	According to the OAG report, most of the district-based government offices were found to have purchased goods in bit and pieces against the procurement rule.<br />
	According to the Public Procurement Act, the procurement of goods above a certain limit should be done at once.<br />
	Most of the government offices and local governments are found to have proceeded the procurement without master plan and annual procurement plan.<br />
	The offices were also found be apathetic to execute the given responsibilities, reads the report. It has affected revenue collection and protection of public properties as well as relegated the public service to backburner.<br />
	According to RSS, the status of fiscal transparency is worse in local government than in federal government offices. However, the central government offices are also found to be working in an unsystematic manner.<br />
	Even the district administration offices were not found maintaining data and records systematically.</p>

	February 7: Shree Airlines has obtained permission to start international chartered flights with its Bombardier CRJ-200 and CRJ-799 jets.</p>
<p>
	After nine years of chartered helicopter service, the Ministry of Culture, Tourism and Civil Aviation granted the permission to the company to operate international chartered flights last Monday.</p>
<p>
	Joint secretary at the ministry, Suresh Acharya, told New Business Age that the company already had the license to operate international flights. &ldquo;Recently, we only granted permission to operate international flights with its jet planes with the same old license.&rdquo;</p>
<p>
	The company&rsquo;s corporate manager Anil Manandhar said that Shree Airlines received the permission for international flights with its jet airlines after a long time. Now, the company has initiated the process to obtain air operator&rsquo;s certificate (AOC) from the Civil Aviation Authority of Nepal (CAAN), informed Manandhar. Meanwhile, the company is still working to fix the destination countries.</p>
<p>
	An airline company can operate international flights only after acquiring AOC after examining the technical aspects, number of capable pilots and the capital of the company.</p>
<p>
	Currently, Shree Airlines is operating domestic flights to Bhairahawa, Biratnagar, Bhadrapur, Dhangadhi and Nepalgunj from its base in Kathmandu.</p>

	Rastriya Samachar Samiti (RSS) reported that the SC issued the order on Wednesday, February 6, in the context that the company was yet to pay the capital gains tax while purchasing Ncell from Telia Sonera.</p>
<p>
	According to attorney Hari Shankar Gyawali, with the SC decision, Ncell is banned to take away some Rs 7 billion gains before submitting the tax.<br />
	A full bench of Chief Justice Cholrendra Shumsher JB Rana, and justices Mira Khadka, Bishwombhar Prasad Shrestha, Dr Anand Mohan Bhattarai and Tanka Bahadur Moktan issued mandamus that the capital gains tax must be paid by the company which is operative and owns the business.</p>
<p>
	Swedish company Telia Sonera had 80 percent share in the Ncell, which was later purchased by the Malaysian company.<br />
	Earlier, the Large Taxpayers&#39; Office had calculated Rs 61 billion tax Telia Sonera had to pay.<br />
	After the Telia Sonera sold 80 percent share to the Malaysian company Axiata, the dispute over who shall pay tax had reached the Supreme Court.</p>

	<strong>The Trading volume:</strong></p>
<p>
	&nbsp;</p>
<p>
	Today&rsquo;s trading volume Rs 23.56 crores has been increased as compared to yesterday&rsquo;s trading volume of Rs 23.1Crores. Indication seems tomorrow market won&rsquo;t be ready for the further slide or market may show saturation at the lower support.</p>
<p>
	<strong>Commentary:</strong></p>
<ul>
	<li>
		Market dropped below todays Pivot of 1148 although it opened higher than pivot, This may be due to the lower trading volume yesterday.</li>
	<li>
		Current market price 1139.72is lower than tomorrows pivot 1142.10</li>
	<li>
		Today market traded in higher &nbsp;volume than the yesterdays.</li>
</ul>
<p>
	<strong>Recommendations:</strong></p>
<ul>
	<li>
		Market seems finding the monthly support of Magh so below 1140 to 1127 is a buying zone for short term which may give exit in next week or next month.</li>
	<li>
		Market may give a buy point around 1136 and rise for short term.</li>
	<li>
		Conventional buyer&rsquo;s day seems arrived. Market at bottom for n-period always is not possible.</li>
</ul>
<p>
	<strong>Fundamental Outlook:</strong></p>
<ul>
	<li>
		The higher side of rate of interest from the bank and the liquidity impact has been a talk of economy for recent few days, but still its hot talk to impact stock market.</li>
	<li>
		Businessmen and enterprises are against higher interest rates and ready to boycott the banks????&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</li>
	<li>
		Government either does not seem willing to interfere the current market price or is not ready to understand the impact of low price in the economy. May be poor government may not have interfering tools in hand to interfere the market.</li>
</ul>
<p>
	<strong>Happy Trading&hellip;&hellip;..!!!!!</strong></p>

	February 6: Due to the rapid development of technology, scores of jobs in the market risk becoming obsolete like &lsquo;typewriters&rsquo; in the near future, opined Sixit Bhatta &ndash;CEO of Tootle, a raid-sharing application which has taken the capital city by storm.</p>
<p>
	Bhatta was speaking at the graduation ceremony of Kathmandu Model College (KMC) held recently at Soaltee Corwne Plaza.</p>
<p>
	Bhatta cautioned the fresh graduates to brace for the inevitable change as the courses they have completed might be out of date in the market.</p>
<p>
	&ldquo;It is necessary to prepare oneself keeping in mind the changes brought by technological development. By the time students complete their studies, many of the jobs they learnt in their courses might have turned into typewriters. Students need to prepare themselves accordingly to meet the demands of the future,&rdquo; said Bhatta.</p>
<p>
	During the function, KMC conferred bachelor&rsquo;s degree to its 63 BBA students of 2014 batch for successfully completing their degree in 2018.</p>
<p>
	&nbsp;Meanwhile, director of the college, Kishor Gautam, instructed the graduates to apply their theoretical knowledge in practical life.</p>
<p>
	The programme&rsquo;s chief guest, Pro Dr Kundan Dutta Koirala, suggested the students to choose a profession which they like from heart.</p>
<p>
	The college handed the KMC Excellence Award and cash prize of Rs 15,000 to Biswas Pandit.</p>

	February 6: With less than four years to go until the 2022 World Cup, the Qatari authorities risk falling behind on their promise to tackle widespread labour exploitation of thousands of migrant workers, Amnesty International said on Tuesday, February 5.</p>
<p>
	Amnesty International said it has urged Qatar to fully abolish the abusive kafala sponsorship system which, despite a few recent changes, continues to tie workers to unscrupulous employers for up to five years.</p>
<p>
	In November 2017, Qatar signed an agreement with the UN International Labour Organization (ILO) to revise its laws in line with international labour standards.</p>
<p>
	Since then, the authorities have passed several pieces of legislation aimed at benefiting migrant workers, including introducing a temporary minimum wage, introducing a law for domestic workers, setting up new committees to address labour disputes and establishing a workers&rsquo; support and insurance fund.</p>
<p>
	The authorities also ended the requirement for employees to obtain an &ldquo;exit permit&rdquo; requiring their employer&rsquo;s permission to be able to leave the country for most migrant workers.</p>
<p>
	However, limitations in some of the reforms introduced so far mean many migrant workers in Qatar are still at risk of forced labour, restrictions on their movement and other abuses.</p>
<p>
	Under the kafala system, which remains firmly in place despite partial reforms, workers still cannot change jobs without their employers&rsquo; permission. They face criminalization for &lsquo;absconding&rsquo; and risk having their passports confiscated.</p>
<p>
	The temporary minimum wage is just over $200 per month, while new labour courts intended to tackle cases of abuse including non-payment of wages are overwhelmed with cases and hundreds of workers have returned home without justice or compensation.</p>
<p>
	Domestic workers, meanwhile, are still required to obtain an &ldquo;exit permit&rdquo; in order to leave the country, and a weak domestic workers law introduced in 2017 means many remain vulnerable to abuse.</p>

	February 8: The Jufal airport in Dolpa had to be shut on Thursday due to accumulation of snow on the runway. Heavy snowfall that occurred in the upper reaches of the district since Thursday morning has obstructed the regular flights to and from the airport, according to Rastriya Samachar Samiti (RSS).</p>
<p>
	The state-owned news agency reported that thick snow piled up on the runway has obstructed the landing while extremely poor visibility has affected the flights to and from the airport.</p>
<p>
	Bal Kumar Sharma, chief of the civil aviation office in Jufal, said there were slim chances of resuming the air services for a few days. The snowfall and chilling cold have created difficulties for the locals as well.</p>
<p>
	The same scenario has been seen in Jumla, Humla and Mugu districts as well.</p>
<p>
	Along with it, the preparation classes being run for students appearing in the SEE exams have also been affected due to cold.</p>
<p>
	&ldquo;The students are failing to attend the classes at schools,&rdquo; RSS quoted Deepak Parajuli, a teacher at Janaprabha secondary school Liku, as saying.</p>

	February 7: Nepal&rsquo;s trade treaty with India is in need of substantial revisions in order for Nepal to be able to address its ballooning trade deficit with its biggest trade partner, experts suggested during a recent interaction held in Kathmandu.</p>
<p>
	Trade experts, industrialists and former policymakers expressed this view at the interaction on the topic Nepal-India Trade Treaty: Opportunities and Challenges, jointly organised by the Ministry of Industry, Commerce and Supplies and South Asia Watch on Trade, Economics and Environment (SAWTEE) on February 5. According to the organisers, this programme was organised to gather inputs from stakeholders at a time when the Government of Nepal is in the process of negotiating a review of the trade treaty with the Indian government.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>
<p>
	Making his presentation on Nepal-India Trade Treaty: Some Avenues for Review, Dr Posh Raj Pandey, chairman of SAWTEE, said that there are many issues that need to be discussed and revised in the treaty in view of the facts such as a burgeoning trade deficit, failure to participate in value chains, the presence of non-tariff barriers, preference erosion, the adverse impact of the treaty on producers of primary agricultural goods, inadequate trade facilitation measures and lack of or slow targeted support for building trade capacities.</p>
<p>
	He further added that the government needs to put forward the proposal to remove the provision of tariff rate quotas on vegetable fats, acrylic yarn, copper and zinc oxide, waive Integrated Goods and Services Tax (IGST) for the products produced by small units, allow Nepal to import third country goods from India for specific purposes, and also remove the time-bound nature of the trade treaty to ensure greater certainty.&nbsp;</p>
<p>
	Shekhar Golchha, senior vice president of the Federation of Nepalese Chamber of Commerce and Industries (FNCCI), said that Nepal has not been able to promote its exports as the cost of doing business is very high and the business environment was also plagued by political instability and energy crisis, among others, but now that these issues have been resolved to a certain extent, the focus now needs to be on developing infrastructure at the border areas to promote export.</p>
<p>
	Hari Bhakta Sharma, president of the Confederation of Nepalese Industries (CNI), said that the treaty needs a paradigm shift with revisions as it has only benefited India.</p>
<p>
	Former secretary Purushottam Ojha said that some of the favourable provisions of the treaty remain unimplemented. Such provisions include a partial rebate of excise duty on exports by Nepali medium and large firms that can prove that their cost of production is higher than that of their counterpart firms in India; a pledge by India to help Nepal build its capacity concerning standards and testing; local-level committee comprising local stakeholders in border areas to address trade frictions. He urged the government to work out ways to have such provisions implemented.</p>
<p>
	Participants stressed the fact that the treaty needs to be reviewed before renewing. They further added that Nepal needs to build its strength and capacity in order to promote its exports.</p>

	February 7: At a time when the government is moving ahead with its plan for the construction of an international airport in Nijgadh, environmental activists have appealed to the government to build the airport elsewhere arguing that the construction of the airport will have negative impact on the natural environment and wildlife of Nijgadh.</p>
<p>
	Environmental activists say that said that the environment impact assessment (EIA) of Nijgadh lacks extensive study of the area. Therefore, the environmental activists and the other stakeholders strongly appealed to the government during a press meet held on Wednesday, February 6, to conduct environment impact assessment (EIA) in other feasible areas.</p>
<p>
	Environmental activists claimed that it is worthless to construct a multi-million rupees airport that would affect countless wildlife and thousands of trees spread across 8,046 hectors of the rich natural forest renowned as Char Kose Jhadi in Province 2.</p>
<p>
	They stated that the Char Kose Jhadi, which is the national pride of the country, will be destroyed by the big national project. Instead, they suggested that Murtiya, which is 33 km east of the proposed site, can be appropriate for the airport. The said that Murtiya does not have forest areas and is far from the hills as well as the Indian border.</p>
<p>
	Kapil Chitrakar, an expert on forest and wildlife, said that they have submitted petitions to the Ministry of Culture, Tourism and Civil Aviation (MoCTCA), the Ministry of Forest and Environment and the Prime Minister&rsquo;s Office. He said that 141 different critics, forest experts, journalists, entrepreneurs, industrialists, environmental activists among others have signed the petitions.</p>
<p>
	Dr Dwarika Dhungel, an analyst and former secretary said, &ldquo;We are not standing against the developmental projects of the country which are indeed required for reliving traffic congestion at Tribhuvan International Airport (TIA). However, the project should be carried out in an eco-friendly manner. Deforestation of Nijgadh forest which protects over 500 species of birds, 22 species of rare vegetation including shorea robusta (Sal) tree and 23 varieties of mammals will adversely affect the environment.&rdquo;</p>
<p>
	According to environmental activist Prabhu Budathoki , the deforestation of the Chure range will lead to desertification of Terai and Madhes affecting the livelihood of the people. Likewise, environmental activist Chanda Rana said Nijgadh&rsquo;s EIA resembles the format of hydropower project. Rana also pleaded the government to conduct EIA for feasibility of the Murtiya instead of Nijgadh.</p>
<p>
	The council of minister had allocated area in Nijgadh for the construction of the airport on March 13, 2015.</p>

	It is mandatory for the concerned public entity to call quotations for open competition. Nevertheless, the competition has been made with limited forms and entities, RSS reported. Such practices have created ample spaces for fiduciary malaises, the report stated.<br />
	According to the OAG report, most of the district-based government offices were found to have purchased goods in bit and pieces against the procurement rule.<br />
	According to the Public Procurement Act, the procurement of goods above a certain limit should be done at once.<br />
	Most of the government offices and local governments are found to have proceeded the procurement without master plan and annual procurement plan.<br />
	The offices were also found be apathetic to execute the given responsibilities, reads the report. It has affected revenue collection and protection of public properties as well as relegated the public service to backburner.<br />
	According to RSS, the status of fiscal transparency is worse in local government than in federal government offices. However, the central government offices are also found to be working in an unsystematic manner.<br />

	February 7: Shree Airlines has obtained permission to start international chartered flights with its Bombardier CRJ-200 and CRJ-799 jets.</p>
<p>
	After nine years of chartered helicopter service, the Ministry of Culture, Tourism and Civil Aviation granted the permission to the company to operate international chartered flights last Monday.</p>
<p>
	Joint secretary at the ministry, Suresh Acharya, told New Business Age that the company already had the license to operate international flights. &ldquo;Recently, we only granted permission to operate international flights with its jet planes with the same old license.&rdquo;</p>
<p>
	The company&rsquo;s corporate manager Anil Manandhar said that Shree Airlines received the permission for international flights with its jet airlines after a long time. Now, the company has initiated the process to obtain air operator&rsquo;s certificate (AOC) from the Civil Aviation Authority of Nepal (CAAN), informed Manandhar. Meanwhile, the company is still working to fix the destination countries.</p>
<p>
	An airline company can operate international flights only after acquiring AOC after examining the technical aspects, number of capable pilots and the capital of the company.</p>
<p>
	Currently, Shree Airlines is operating domestic flights to Bhairahawa, Biratnagar, Bhadrapur, Dhangadhi and Nepalgunj from its base in Kathmandu.</p>

	February 7: The Supreme Court has issued an order asking both Ncell and Malaysian company Axiata to pay the capital gains tax of Rs 38 billion to Nepal government.<br />
	Rastriya Samachar Samiti (RSS) reported that the SC issued the order on Wednesday, February 6, in the context that the company was yet to pay the capital gains tax while purchasing Ncell from Telia Sonera.</p>
<p>
	According to attorney Hari Shankar Gyawali, with the SC decision, Ncell is banned to take away some Rs 7 billion gains before submitting the tax.<br />
	A full bench of Chief Justice Cholrendra Shumsher JB Rana, and justices Mira Khadka, Bishwombhar Prasad Shrestha, Dr Anand Mohan Bhattarai and Tanka Bahadur Moktan issued mandamus that the capital gains tax must be paid by the company which is operative and owns the business.</p>
<p>
	Swedish company Telia Sonera had 80 percent share in the Ncell, which was later purchased by the Malaysian company.<br />
	Earlier, the Large Taxpayers&#39; Office had calculated Rs 61 billion tax Telia Sonera had to pay.<br />
	After the Telia Sonera sold 80 percent share to the Malaysian company Axiata, the dispute over who shall pay tax had reached the Supreme Court.</p>

<p>
	<strong>The Trading volume:</strong></p>
<p>
	&nbsp;</p>
<p>
	Today&rsquo;s trading volume Rs 23.56 crores has been increased as compared to yesterday&rsquo;s trading volume of Rs 23.1Crores. Indication seems tomorrow market won&rsquo;t be ready for the further slide or market may show saturation at the lower support.</p>
<p>
	<strong>Commentary:</strong></p>
<ul>
	<li>
		Market dropped below todays Pivot of 1148 although it opened higher than pivot, This may be due to the lower trading volume yesterday.</li>
	<li>
		Current market price 1139.72is lower than tomorrows pivot 1142.10</li>
	<li>
		Today market traded in higher &nbsp;volume than the yesterdays.</li>
</ul>
<p>
	<strong>Recommendations:</strong></p>
<ul>
	<li>
		Market seems finding the monthly support of Magh so below 1140 to 1127 is a buying zone for short term which may give exit in next week or next month.</li>
	<li>
		Market may give a buy point around 1136 and rise for short term.</li>
	<li>
		Conventional buyer&rsquo;s day seems arrived. Market at bottom for n-period always is not possible.</li>
</ul>
<p>
	<strong>Fundamental Outlook:</strong></p>
<ul>
	<li>
		The higher side of rate of interest from the bank and the liquidity impact has been a talk of economy for recent few days, but still its hot talk to impact stock market.</li>
	<li>
		Businessmen and enterprises are against higher interest rates and ready to boycott the banks????&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</li>
	<li>
		Government either does not seem willing to interfere the current market price or is not ready to understand the impact of low price in the economy. May be poor government may not have interfering tools in hand to interfere the market.</li>
</ul>
<p>
	<strong>Happy Trading&hellip;&hellip;..!!!!!</strong></p>

	February 6: Due to the rapid development of technology, scores of jobs in the market risk becoming obsolete like &lsquo;typewriters&rsquo; in the near future, opined Sixit Bhatta &ndash;CEO of Tootle, a raid-sharing application which has taken the capital city by storm.</p>
<p>
	Bhatta was speaking at the graduation ceremony of Kathmandu Model College (KMC) held recently at Soaltee Corwne Plaza.</p>
<p>
	Bhatta cautioned the fresh graduates to brace for the inevitable change as the courses they have completed might be out of date in the market.</p>
<p>
	&ldquo;It is necessary to prepare oneself keeping in mind the changes brought by technological development. By the time students complete their studies, many of the jobs they learnt in their courses might have turned into typewriters. Students need to prepare themselves accordingly to meet the demands of the future,&rdquo; said Bhatta.</p>
<p>
	During the function, KMC conferred bachelor&rsquo;s degree to its 63 BBA students of 2014 batch for successfully completing their degree in 2018.</p>
<p>
	&nbsp;Meanwhile, director of the college, Kishor Gautam, instructed the graduates to apply their theoretical knowledge in practical life.</p>
<p>
	The programme&rsquo;s chief guest, Pro Dr Kundan Dutta Koirala, suggested the students to choose a profession which they like from heart.</p>
<p>
	The college handed the KMC Excellence Award and cash prize of Rs 15,000 to Biswas Pandit.</p>

	February 6: With less than four years to go until the 2022 World Cup, the Qatari authorities risk falling behind on their promise to tackle widespread labour exploitation of thousands of migrant workers, Amnesty International said on Tuesday, February 5.</p>
<p>
	Amnesty International said it has urged Qatar to fully abolish the abusive kafala sponsorship system which, despite a few recent changes, continues to tie workers to unscrupulous employers for up to five years.</p>
<p>
	In November 2017, Qatar signed an agreement with the UN International Labour Organization (ILO) to revise its laws in line with international labour standards.</p>
<p>
	Since then, the authorities have passed several pieces of legislation aimed at benefiting migrant workers, including introducing a temporary minimum wage, introducing a law for domestic workers, setting up new committees to address labour disputes and establishing a workers&rsquo; support and insurance fund.</p>
<p>
	The authorities also ended the requirement for employees to obtain an &ldquo;exit permit&rdquo; requiring their employer&rsquo;s permission to be able to leave the country for most migrant workers.</p>
<p>
	However, limitations in some of the reforms introduced so far mean many migrant workers in Qatar are still at risk of forced labour, restrictions on their movement and other abuses.</p>
<p>
	Under the kafala system, which remains firmly in place despite partial reforms, workers still cannot change jobs without their employers&rsquo; permission. They face criminalization for &lsquo;absconding&rsquo; and risk having their passports confiscated.</p>
<p>
	The temporary minimum wage is just over $200 per month, while new labour courts intended to tackle cases of abuse including non-payment of wages are overwhelmed with cases and hundreds of workers have returned home without justice or compensation.</p>
<p>
	Domestic workers, meanwhile, are still required to obtain an &ldquo;exit permit&rdquo; in order to leave the country, and a weak domestic workers law introduced in 2017 means many remain vulnerable to abuse.</p>

	February 7: Nepal&rsquo;s trade treaty with India is in need of substantial revisions in order for Nepal to be able to address its ballooning trade deficit with its biggest trade partner, experts suggested during a recent interaction held in Kathmandu.</p>
<p>
	Trade experts, industrialists and former policymakers expressed this view at the interaction on the topic Nepal-India Trade Treaty: Opportunities and Challenges, jointly organised by the Ministry of Industry, Commerce and Supplies and South Asia Watch on Trade, Economics and Environment (SAWTEE) on February 5. According to the organisers, this programme was organised to gather inputs from stakeholders at a time when the Government of Nepal is in the process of negotiating a review of the trade treaty with the Indian government.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>
<p>
	Making his presentation on Nepal-India Trade Treaty: Some Avenues for Review, Dr Posh Raj Pandey, chairman of SAWTEE, said that there are many issues that need to be discussed and revised in the treaty in view of the facts such as a burgeoning trade deficit, failure to participate in value chains, the presence of non-tariff barriers, preference erosion, the adverse impact of the treaty on producers of primary agricultural goods, inadequate trade facilitation measures and lack of or slow targeted support for building trade capacities.</p>
<p>
	He further added that the government needs to put forward the proposal to remove the provision of tariff rate quotas on vegetable fats, acrylic yarn, copper and zinc oxide, waive Integrated Goods and Services Tax (IGST) for the products produced by small units, allow Nepal to import third country goods from India for specific purposes, and also remove the time-bound nature of the trade treaty to ensure greater certainty.&nbsp;</p>
<p>
	Shekhar Golchha, senior vice president of the Federation of Nepalese Chamber of Commerce and Industries (FNCCI), said that Nepal has not been able to promote its exports as the cost of doing business is very high and the business environment was also plagued by political instability and energy crisis, among others, but now that these issues have been resolved to a certain extent, the focus now needs to be on developing infrastructure at the border areas to promote export.</p>
<p>
	Hari Bhakta Sharma, president of the Confederation of Nepalese Industries (CNI), said that the treaty needs a paradigm shift with revisions as it has only benefited India.</p>
<p>
	Former secretary Purushottam Ojha said that some of the favourable provisions of the treaty remain unimplemented. Such provisions include a partial rebate of excise duty on exports by Nepali medium and large firms that can prove that their cost of production is higher than that of their counterpart firms in India; a pledge by India to help Nepal build its capacity concerning standards and testing; local-level committee comprising local stakeholders in border areas to address trade frictions. He urged the government to work out ways to have such provisions implemented.</p>
<p>
	Participants stressed the fact that the treaty needs to be reviewed before renewing. They further added that Nepal needs to build its strength and capacity in order to promote its exports.</p>

	February 7: At a time when the government is moving ahead with its plan for the construction of an international airport in Nijgadh, environmental activists have appealed to the government to build the airport elsewhere arguing that the construction of the airport will have negative impact on the natural environment and wildlife of Nijgadh.</p>
<p>
	Environmental activists say that said that the environment impact assessment (EIA) of Nijgadh lacks extensive study of the area. Therefore, the environmental activists and the other stakeholders strongly appealed to the government during a press meet held on Wednesday, February 6, to conduct environment impact assessment (EIA) in other feasible areas.</p>
<p>
	Environmental activists claimed that it is worthless to construct a multi-million rupees airport that would affect countless wildlife and thousands of trees spread across 8,046 hectors of the rich natural forest renowned as Char Kose Jhadi in Province 2.</p>
<p>
	They stated that the Char Kose Jhadi, which is the national pride of the country, will be destroyed by the big national project. Instead, they suggested that Murtiya, which is 33 km east of the proposed site, can be appropriate for the airport. The said that Murtiya does not have forest areas and is far from the hills as well as the Indian border.</p>
<p>
	Kapil Chitrakar, an expert on forest and wildlife, said that they have submitted petitions to the Ministry of Culture, Tourism and Civil Aviation (MoCTCA), the Ministry of Forest and Environment and the Prime Minister&rsquo;s Office. He said that 141 different critics, forest experts, journalists, entrepreneurs, industrialists, environmental activists among others have signed the petitions.</p>
<p>
	Dr Dwarika Dhungel, an analyst and former secretary said, &ldquo;We are not standing against the developmental projects of the country which are indeed required for reliving traffic congestion at Tribhuvan International Airport (TIA). However, the project should be carried out in an eco-friendly manner. Deforestation of Nijgadh forest which protects over 500 species of birds, 22 species of rare vegetation including shorea robusta (Sal) tree and 23 varieties of mammals will adversely affect the environment.&rdquo;</p>
<p>
	According to environmental activist Prabhu Budathoki , the deforestation of the Chure range will lead to desertification of Terai and Madhes affecting the livelihood of the people. Likewise, environmental activist Chanda Rana said Nijgadh&rsquo;s EIA resembles the format of hydropower project. Rana also pleaded the government to conduct EIA for feasibility of the Murtiya instead of Nijgadh.</p>
<p>
	The council of minister had allocated area in Nijgadh for the construction of the airport on March 13, 2015.</p>

	The 2018/19 report of the Office of Auditor General &ndash; the constitutional budget oversight agency &ndash; has painted a bleak picture of most of the district-based government bodies.<br />
	It is mandatory for the concerned public entity to call quotations for open competition. Nevertheless, the competition has been made with limited forms and entities, RSS reported. Such practices have created ample spaces for fiduciary malaises, the report stated.<br />
	According to the OAG report, most of the district-based government offices were found to have purchased goods in bit and pieces against the procurement rule.<br />
	According to the Public Procurement Act, the procurement of goods above a certain limit should be done at once.<br />
	Most of the government offices and local governments are found to have proceeded the procurement without master plan and annual procurement plan.<br />
	The offices were also found be apathetic to execute the given responsibilities, reads the report. It has affected revenue collection and protection of public properties as well as relegated the public service to backburner.<br />
	According to RSS, the status of fiscal transparency is worse in local government than in federal government offices. However, the central government offices are also found to be working in an unsystematic manner.<br />
	Even the district administration offices were not found maintaining data and records systematically.</p>

<p>
	After nine years of chartered helicopter service, the Ministry of Culture, Tourism and Civil Aviation granted the permission to the company to operate international chartered flights last Monday.</p>
<p>
	Joint secretary at the ministry, Suresh Acharya, told New Business Age that the company already had the license to operate international flights. &ldquo;Recently, we only granted permission to operate international flights with its jet planes with the same old license.&rdquo;</p>
<p>
	The company&rsquo;s corporate manager Anil Manandhar said that Shree Airlines received the permission for international flights with its jet airlines after a long time. Now, the company has initiated the process to obtain air operator&rsquo;s certificate (AOC) from the Civil Aviation Authority of Nepal (CAAN), informed Manandhar. Meanwhile, the company is still working to fix the destination countries.</p>
<p>
	An airline company can operate international flights only after acquiring AOC after examining the technical aspects, number of capable pilots and the capital of the company.</p>
<p>
	Currently, Shree Airlines is operating domestic flights to Bhairahawa, Biratnagar, Bhadrapur, Dhangadhi and Nepalgunj from its base in Kathmandu.</p>

	Rastriya Samachar Samiti (RSS) reported that the SC issued the order on Wednesday, February 6, in the context that the company was yet to pay the capital gains tax while purchasing Ncell from Telia Sonera.</p>
<p>
	According to attorney Hari Shankar Gyawali, with the SC decision, Ncell is banned to take away some Rs 7 billion gains before submitting the tax.<br />
	A full bench of Chief Justice Cholrendra Shumsher JB Rana, and justices Mira Khadka, Bishwombhar Prasad Shrestha, Dr Anand Mohan Bhattarai and Tanka Bahadur Moktan issued mandamus that the capital gains tax must be paid by the company which is operative and owns the business.</p>
<p>
	Swedish company Telia Sonera had 80 percent share in the Ncell, which was later purchased by the Malaysian company.<br />
	Earlier, the Large Taxpayers&#39; Office had calculated Rs 61 billion tax Telia Sonera had to pay.<br />
	After the Telia Sonera sold 80 percent share to the Malaysian company Axiata, the dispute over who shall pay tax had reached the Supreme Court.</p>

<p>
	<strong>The Trading volume:</strong></p>
<p>
	&nbsp;</p>
<p>
	Today&rsquo;s trading volume Rs 23.56 crores has been increased as compared to yesterday&rsquo;s trading volume of Rs 23.1Crores. Indication seems tomorrow market won&rsquo;t be ready for the further slide or market may show saturation at the lower support.</p>
<p>
	<strong>Commentary:</strong></p>
<ul>
	<li>
		Market dropped below todays Pivot of 1148 although it opened higher than pivot, This may be due to the lower trading volume yesterday.</li>
	<li>
		Current market price 1139.72is lower than tomorrows pivot 1142.10</li>
	<li>
		Today market traded in higher &nbsp;volume than the yesterdays.</li>
</ul>
<p>
	<strong>Recommendations:</strong></p>
<ul>
	<li>
		Market seems finding the monthly support of Magh so below 1140 to 1127 is a buying zone for short term which may give exit in next week or next month.</li>
	<li>
		Market may give a buy point around 1136 and rise for short term.</li>
	<li>
		Conventional buyer&rsquo;s day seems arrived. Market at bottom for n-period always is not possible.</li>
</ul>
<p>
	<strong>Fundamental Outlook:</strong></p>
<ul>
	<li>
		The higher side of rate of interest from the bank and the liquidity impact has been a talk of economy for recent few days, but still its hot talk to impact stock market.</li>
	<li>
		Businessmen and enterprises are against higher interest rates and ready to boycott the banks????&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</li>
	<li>
		Government either does not seem willing to interfere the current market price or is not ready to understand the impact of low price in the economy. May be poor government may not have interfering tools in hand to interfere the market.</li>
</ul>
<p>
	<strong>Happy Trading&hellip;&hellip;..!!!!!</strong></p>

	February 6: Due to the rapid development of technology, scores of jobs in the market risk becoming obsolete like &lsquo;typewriters&rsquo; in the near future, opined Sixit Bhatta &ndash;CEO of Tootle, a raid-sharing application which has taken the capital city by storm.</p>
<p>
	Bhatta was speaking at the graduation ceremony of Kathmandu Model College (KMC) held recently at Soaltee Corwne Plaza.</p>
<p>
	Bhatta cautioned the fresh graduates to brace for the inevitable change as the courses they have completed might be out of date in the market.</p>
<p>
	&ldquo;It is necessary to prepare oneself keeping in mind the changes brought by technological development. By the time students complete their studies, many of the jobs they learnt in their courses might have turned into typewriters. Students need to prepare themselves accordingly to meet the demands of the future,&rdquo; said Bhatta.</p>
<p>
	During the function, KMC conferred bachelor&rsquo;s degree to its 63 BBA students of 2014 batch for successfully completing their degree in 2018.</p>
<p>
	&nbsp;Meanwhile, director of the college, Kishor Gautam, instructed the graduates to apply their theoretical knowledge in practical life.</p>
<p>
	The programme&rsquo;s chief guest, Pro Dr Kundan Dutta Koirala, suggested the students to choose a profession which they like from heart.</p>
<p>
	The college handed the KMC Excellence Award and cash prize of Rs 15,000 to Biswas Pandit.</p>

	February 6: With less than four years to go until the 2022 World Cup, the Qatari authorities risk falling behind on their promise to tackle widespread labour exploitation of thousands of migrant workers, Amnesty International said on Tuesday, February 5.</p>
<p>
	Amnesty International said it has urged Qatar to fully abolish the abusive kafala sponsorship system which, despite a few recent changes, continues to tie workers to unscrupulous employers for up to five years.</p>
<p>
	In November 2017, Qatar signed an agreement with the UN International Labour Organization (ILO) to revise its laws in line with international labour standards.</p>
<p>
	Since then, the authorities have passed several pieces of legislation aimed at benefiting migrant workers, including introducing a temporary minimum wage, introducing a law for domestic workers, setting up new committees to address labour disputes and establishing a workers&rsquo; support and insurance fund.</p>
<p>
	The authorities also ended the requirement for employees to obtain an &ldquo;exit permit&rdquo; requiring their employer&rsquo;s permission to be able to leave the country for most migrant workers.</p>
<p>
	However, limitations in some of the reforms introduced so far mean many migrant workers in Qatar are still at risk of forced labour, restrictions on their movement and other abuses.</p>
<p>
	Under the kafala system, which remains firmly in place despite partial reforms, workers still cannot change jobs without their employers&rsquo; permission. They face criminalization for &lsquo;absconding&rsquo; and risk having their passports confiscated.</p>
<p>
	The temporary minimum wage is just over $200 per month, while new labour courts intended to tackle cases of abuse including non-payment of wages are overwhelmed with cases and hundreds of workers have returned home without justice or compensation.</p>
<p>
	Domestic workers, meanwhile, are still required to obtain an &ldquo;exit permit&rdquo; in order to leave the country, and a weak domestic workers law introduced in 2017 means many remain vulnerable to abuse.</p>

	February 7: Nepal&rsquo;s trade treaty with India is in need of substantial revisions in order for Nepal to be able to address its ballooning trade deficit with its biggest trade partner, experts suggested during a recent interaction held in Kathmandu.</p>
<p>
	Trade experts, industrialists and former policymakers expressed this view at the interaction on the topic Nepal-India Trade Treaty: Opportunities and Challenges, jointly organised by the Ministry of Industry, Commerce and Supplies and South Asia Watch on Trade, Economics and Environment (SAWTEE) on February 5. According to the organisers, this programme was organised to gather inputs from stakeholders at a time when the Government of Nepal is in the process of negotiating a review of the trade treaty with the Indian government.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>
<p>
	Making his presentation on Nepal-India Trade Treaty: Some Avenues for Review, Dr Posh Raj Pandey, chairman of SAWTEE, said that there are many issues that need to be discussed and revised in the treaty in view of the facts such as a burgeoning trade deficit, failure to participate in value chains, the presence of non-tariff barriers, preference erosion, the adverse impact of the treaty on producers of primary agricultural goods, inadequate trade facilitation measures and lack of or slow targeted support for building trade capacities.</p>
<p>
	He further added that the government needs to put forward the proposal to remove the provision of tariff rate quotas on vegetable fats, acrylic yarn, copper and zinc oxide, waive Integrated Goods and Services Tax (IGST) for the products produced by small units, allow Nepal to import third country goods from India for specific purposes, and also remove the time-bound nature of the trade treaty to ensure greater certainty.&nbsp;</p>
<p>
	Shekhar Golchha, senior vice president of the Federation of Nepalese Chamber of Commerce and Industries (FNCCI), said that Nepal has not been able to promote its exports as the cost of doing business is very high and the business environment was also plagued by political instability and energy crisis, among others, but now that these issues have been resolved to a certain extent, the focus now needs to be on developing infrastructure at the border areas to promote export.</p>
<p>
	Hari Bhakta Sharma, president of the Confederation of Nepalese Industries (CNI), said that the treaty needs a paradigm shift with revisions as it has only benefited India.</p>
<p>
	Former secretary Purushottam Ojha said that some of the favourable provisions of the treaty remain unimplemented. Such provisions include a partial rebate of excise duty on exports by Nepali medium and large firms that can prove that their cost of production is higher than that of their counterpart firms in India; a pledge by India to help Nepal build its capacity concerning standards and testing; local-level committee comprising local stakeholders in border areas to address trade frictions. He urged the government to work out ways to have such provisions implemented.</p>
<p>
	Participants stressed the fact that the treaty needs to be reviewed before renewing. They further added that Nepal needs to build its strength and capacity in order to promote its exports.</p>

<p>
	Environmental activists say that said that the environment impact assessment (EIA) of Nijgadh lacks extensive study of the area. Therefore, the environmental activists and the other stakeholders strongly appealed to the government during a press meet held on Wednesday, February 6, to conduct environment impact assessment (EIA) in other feasible areas.</p>
<p>
	Environmental activists claimed that it is worthless to construct a multi-million rupees airport that would affect countless wildlife and thousands of trees spread across 8,046 hectors of the rich natural forest renowned as Char Kose Jhadi in Province 2.</p>
<p>
	They stated that the Char Kose Jhadi, which is the national pride of the country, will be destroyed by the big national project. Instead, they suggested that Murtiya, which is 33 km east of the proposed site, can be appropriate for the airport. The said that Murtiya does not have forest areas and is far from the hills as well as the Indian border.</p>
<p>
	Kapil Chitrakar, an expert on forest and wildlife, said that they have submitted petitions to the Ministry of Culture, Tourism and Civil Aviation (MoCTCA), the Ministry of Forest and Environment and the Prime Minister&rsquo;s Office. He said that 141 different critics, forest experts, journalists, entrepreneurs, industrialists, environmental activists among others have signed the petitions.</p>
<p>
	Dr Dwarika Dhungel, an analyst and former secretary said, &ldquo;We are not standing against the developmental projects of the country which are indeed required for reliving traffic congestion at Tribhuvan International Airport (TIA). However, the project should be carried out in an eco-friendly manner. Deforestation of Nijgadh forest which protects over 500 species of birds, 22 species of rare vegetation including shorea robusta (Sal) tree and 23 varieties of mammals will adversely affect the environment.&rdquo;</p>
<p>
	According to environmental activist Prabhu Budathoki , the deforestation of the Chure range will lead to desertification of Terai and Madhes affecting the livelihood of the people. Likewise, environmental activist Chanda Rana said Nijgadh&rsquo;s EIA resembles the format of hydropower project. Rana also pleaded the government to conduct EIA for feasibility of the Murtiya instead of Nijgadh.</p>
<p>
	The council of minister had allocated area in Nijgadh for the construction of the airport on March 13, 2015.</p>

	The 2018/19 report of the Office of Auditor General &ndash; the constitutional budget oversight agency &ndash; has painted a bleak picture of most of the district-based government bodies.<br />
	It is mandatory for the concerned public entity to call quotations for open competition. Nevertheless, the competition has been made with limited forms and entities, RSS reported. Such practices have created ample spaces for fiduciary malaises, the report stated.<br />
	According to the OAG report, most of the district-based government offices were found to have purchased goods in bit and pieces against the procurement rule.<br />
	According to the Public Procurement Act, the procurement of goods above a certain limit should be done at once.<br />
	Most of the government offices and local governments are found to have proceeded the procurement without master plan and annual procurement plan.<br />
	The offices were also found be apathetic to execute the given responsibilities, reads the report. It has affected revenue collection and protection of public properties as well as relegated the public service to backburner.<br />
	According to RSS, the status of fiscal transparency is worse in local government than in federal government offices. However, the central government offices are also found to be working in an unsystematic manner.<br />
	Even the district administration offices were not found maintaining data and records systematically.</p>

	February 7: Shree Airlines has obtained permission to start international chartered flights with its Bombardier CRJ-200 and CRJ-799 jets.</p>
<p>
	After nine years of chartered helicopter service, the Ministry of Culture, Tourism and Civil Aviation granted the permission to the company to operate international chartered flights last Monday.</p>
<p>
	Joint secretary at the ministry, Suresh Acharya, told New Business Age that the company already had the license to operate international flights. &ldquo;Recently, we only granted permission to operate international flights with its jet planes with the same old license.&rdquo;</p>
<p>
	The company&rsquo;s corporate manager Anil Manandhar said that Shree Airlines received the permission for international flights with its jet airlines after a long time. Now, the company has initiated the process to obtain air operator&rsquo;s certificate (AOC) from the Civil Aviation Authority of Nepal (CAAN), informed Manandhar. Meanwhile, the company is still working to fix the destination countries.</p>
<p>
	An airline company can operate international flights only after acquiring AOC after examining the technical aspects, number of capable pilots and the capital of the company.</p>
<p>
	Currently, Shree Airlines is operating domestic flights to Bhairahawa, Biratnagar, Bhadrapur, Dhangadhi and Nepalgunj from its base in Kathmandu.</p>

<p>
	According to attorney Hari Shankar Gyawali, with the SC decision, Ncell is banned to take away some Rs 7 billion gains before submitting the tax.<br />
	A full bench of Chief Justice Cholrendra Shumsher JB Rana, and justices Mira Khadka, Bishwombhar Prasad Shrestha, Dr Anand Mohan Bhattarai and Tanka Bahadur Moktan issued mandamus that the capital gains tax must be paid by the company which is operative and owns the business.</p>
<p>
	Swedish company Telia Sonera had 80 percent share in the Ncell, which was later purchased by the Malaysian company.<br />
	Earlier, the Large Taxpayers&#39; Office had calculated Rs 61 billion tax Telia Sonera had to pay.<br />
	After the Telia Sonera sold 80 percent share to the Malaysian company Axiata, the dispute over who shall pay tax had reached the Supreme Court.</p>

<ul>
	<li>
		The higher side of rate of interest from the bank and the liquidity impact has been a talk of economy for recent few days, but still its hot talk to impact stock market.</li>
	<li>
		Businessmen and enterprises are against higher interest rates and ready to boycott the banks????&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</li>
	<li>
		Government either does not seem willing to interfere the current market price or is not ready to understand the impact of low price in the economy. May be poor government may not have interfering tools in hand to interfere the market.</li>
</ul>

	February 6: Due to the rapid development of technology, scores of jobs in the market risk becoming obsolete like &lsquo;typewriters&rsquo; in the near future, opined Sixit Bhatta &ndash;CEO of Tootle, a raid-sharing application which has taken the capital city by storm.</p>
<p>
	Bhatta was speaking at the graduation ceremony of Kathmandu Model College (KMC) held recently at Soaltee Corwne Plaza.</p>
<p>
	Bhatta cautioned the fresh graduates to brace for the inevitable change as the courses they have completed might be out of date in the market.</p>
<p>
	&ldquo;It is necessary to prepare oneself keeping in mind the changes brought by technological development. By the time students complete their studies, many of the jobs they learnt in their courses might have turned into typewriters. Students need to prepare themselves accordingly to meet the demands of the future,&rdquo; said Bhatta.</p>
<p>
	During the function, KMC conferred bachelor&rsquo;s degree to its 63 BBA students of 2014 batch for successfully completing their degree in 2018.</p>
<p>
	&nbsp;Meanwhile, director of the college, Kishor Gautam, instructed the graduates to apply their theoretical knowledge in practical life.</p>
<p>
	The programme&rsquo;s chief guest, Pro Dr Kundan Dutta Koirala, suggested the students to choose a profession which they like from heart.</p>
<p>
	The college handed the KMC Excellence Award and cash prize of Rs 15,000 to Biswas Pandit.</p>

	February 6: With less than four years to go until the 2022 World Cup, the Qatari authorities risk falling behind on their promise to tackle widespread labour exploitation of thousands of migrant workers, Amnesty International said on Tuesday, February 5.</p>
<p>
	Amnesty International said it has urged Qatar to fully abolish the abusive kafala sponsorship system which, despite a few recent changes, continues to tie workers to unscrupulous employers for up to five years.</p>
<p>
	In November 2017, Qatar signed an agreement with the UN International Labour Organization (ILO) to revise its laws in line with international labour standards.</p>
<p>
	Since then, the authorities have passed several pieces of legislation aimed at benefiting migrant workers, including introducing a temporary minimum wage, introducing a law for domestic workers, setting up new committees to address labour disputes and establishing a workers&rsquo; support and insurance fund.</p>
<p>
	The authorities also ended the requirement for employees to obtain an &ldquo;exit permit&rdquo; requiring their employer&rsquo;s permission to be able to leave the country for most migrant workers.</p>
<p>
	However, limitations in some of the reforms introduced so far mean many migrant workers in Qatar are still at risk of forced labour, restrictions on their movement and other abuses.</p>
<p>
	Under the kafala system, which remains firmly in place despite partial reforms, workers still cannot change jobs without their employers&rsquo; permission. They face criminalization for &lsquo;absconding&rsquo; and risk having their passports confiscated.</p>
<p>
	The temporary minimum wage is just over $200 per month, while new labour courts intended to tackle cases of abuse including non-payment of wages are overwhelmed with cases and hundreds of workers have returned home without justice or compensation.</p>
<p>
	Domestic workers, meanwhile, are still required to obtain an &ldquo;exit permit&rdquo; in order to leave the country, and a weak domestic workers law introduced in 2017 means many remain vulnerable to abuse.</p>
