UBGEA Extends Olive Branch to All Gurkha Organisations in their CALL FOR UNITY

Often, it is difficult to embrace those with open arms with whom our ideas have collided (repeatedly) in the past -even when work was targeted towards similar goals. It is harder still when one party feels it's contribution has been greater than the other's in the process. Nonetheless, when faced with the toughest opposition going on, only through being prepared to rise above our subjective ideals can any work be anticipated to be done -collectively- to fight and overcome such tough challenges that lay ahead. It is hoped that this call for Unity will not go wasted and moreover, not be misused for personal, organisational or political agendas/gains in the name of thousands of Gurkhas who have entrusted the organisational leaders to do their deed 'for the greater good'.
