NRN UK PREPARES TO ENTICE MAJOR INVESTORS INTO UTILISING NEPAL'S HYDROPOWER RESOURCES (Update by NRN UK Spokesperson Mr. Jib Belbase)
NEPAL does possess considerable potential for expansion and foreign investment in its tourism and hydropower industry on account of its natural resources- the scenic Himalayan region and its vast, fast-flowing Himalayan rivers. However, these resources have so far remained unexploited. Instead, Nepal continues to be seen in the global economy as capital and trade-deficit, but labour surplus country. In such context, this endeavour by NRN UK is a welcome development and we sincerely hope that words will be followed by concrete actions and lasting, positive results.

PRESS RELEASE: BEST OF BOTH EVENT TO TAKE PLACE IN ALDERSHOT ON 4TH FEBRUARY
THIS IS A POIGNANT REMINDER OF THE EVENT'S SIGNIFICANCE TO BOTH NEPALESE MIGRANTS AND LOCALS IN RUSHMOOR, FROM THE HARD-WORKING EVENT ORGANISERS: When two very diverse cultures collide in a small geographical area, tension and unrest is bound to ensue, right? Wrong. When enough people from both cultures love their community and care about its people, they will do whatever it takes to avoid the descent into segregation and sectarianism. The people of Aldershot and Farnborough, whether native born or new residents from Nepal, are setting a fine example in this respect for other areas to follow. The majority of the people of Rushmoor recognise that each culture can benefit and be enriched by the best that the other has to offer. In celebration of this fact, United Rushmoor has arranged an event called “Best of Both” to be held at The King’s Centre, High Street, Aldershot GU11 1DJ on Saturday 4th February 2012 from midday until 5pm. IT PROMISES TO BE ONE BIG, FUN-FILLED EVENT AIMED AT BRINGING COMMUNITIES TOGETHER, AND SO MUCH HARD WORK HAS GONE INTO PLANNING AND ORGANISING IT, SO WHY NOT LET US ALL SHOW OUR SUPPORT AND MAKE THIS EVENT A RESOUNDING SUCCESS ?
