International Degrees in Nepal

Nepal’s education system has a lot of drawbacks. The January cover story of Nubiz about the international degrees  in Nepal is very useful for the students who want to get an education of international quality within the country. This story is very well written as it clearly shows both sides of obtaining an International degree in Nepal. It has also
forwarded suggestions to the owners of these colleges to minimize the drawbacks and further enhance the quality of education. I feel very thankful to the writer of this story.

Impressive Growth

The corporate focus story about IME bank (IME: To the People, From the People) published in the January 2013 issue of New Business Age is delightful. I am very impressed by the growth of the IME Group and hope it will bring various projects from which Nepal will benefit a lot. I hope that IME keeps on providing the best of the services that it is currently providing. Best of luck to the CEO, Mr Suman Pokharel and his IME Group.

Promising Company

After reading the Corporate Focus story on Chilime Hydropower, I think it is really a promising company. As we can see electricity demand is growing day by day. So, there is definitely money to be made in this sector. As the  SWOT analysis of the company shows, there is a long list of threats for Chilime or other hydropower projects for that matter. Clearly, there is much more to be done to make this sector more attractive for the investors. In my opinion, if the government becomes more flexible with licensing and other policy measures, the hydropower sector will grow significantly.  Meanwhile, Chilime has improved its CSR as a PLC and the locals are definitely getting more benefits from the project than they had perhaps expected.

People’s Trust in Media
The media brands article under the Brand Talk column by Sajag Karki shed light on the contribution of media to bring out the correct news for the audience. It discussed how the popular international media brands like CNN and BBC established their brand names. The popularity of these two brands shows the people’s trust in them globally. Kantipur media also showed a social initiative campaign called “One Nepali One Resolution” which spread the message that responsibility should be taken by everyone and the game of blaming the political parties, government or anyone else should be avoided at any cost.

Dignity in Diversity

Small is Mega for Mega Bank was a story worth reading. Anil Shah’s statement that, “We will make a path through the jungle, not through a six-lane highway and show others that there is a business there as well” is very bold. This is a great assurance for the member s of Mega Bank. We believe in him and wish him all the best. Mega Bank has successfully established itself as a brand name within a period of  only two years. This shows us that there is dignity in diversity.
