World Water Day?


What did you do yesterday? Nothing... but our NGOs, INGOs and government folks were all busy celebrating 'WORLD WATER DAY'. And I would like to say 'Thank U very much' ... for spending them dollars on posters, rallies and nautanki newspaper advertisements.

And our Hon' minister, Bijaya 'I got only one eye' Gachedar is going to solve this problem. When? By 2017 A.D. or roughly 8 years after (your) death ... if you happen to die tomorrow!

No electricity... no problem! No water... then very very big problem! You need water to a)wash your hands b) cook bhaat c) make tea d) and nearly everything else. You can still get away with one shower a week (if you are French then a month will do!) but you have to have clean socks and a shirt or something.

Talking about socks... you don't want to go to a restaurant where u got to take off your shoes and just act like the 'smell' is coming from the Bagmati River. Well if you go to a Korean place then ... maybe that's okay ... just order a bucket full of Kimchee!

I think it would be easier to walk all the way to Mexico and then make a 100 mile desert-run into the US of A than the water from Melamchi finally getting into KTM Valley! I have no idea what I am talking about.... but if you do get to Amrika then you won't have to worry about paani. You can take shower every hour for the rest of your life!

And here in KTM, the capital of 'Nepal'... taking a nice 'normal' shower might be once in a life time opportunity! Why? The way our netas are fighting with each other... who really has the time to think about them water, electricity, baato-ghaato problems?

Even the Water-tanker wallahs are busy providing us with 'khola' ko paani and you must have seen them KTM ko khola-naala! When are we going to stand up for our rights? Sorry... we're Nepalese! We care about the big stuff like 'Republic' and all this 'federalism' stuff... Cock-A-Doodle-Doo!

That's great but can we have some water, Please! Paani pani pardaina... it's been a week since aakash ma gadyang-goo-doong but no paani purring! God.. let it rain, now clear it out...(I just want my) chicken-noodle-soup with a soda on the side!
