Image: ChatGPT/Concept: LB Thapa   RSP Connecting politics with career and professionalism By LB Thapa Are you planning to contest elections on a Rastriya Swatantra Party (RSP) ticket? If so, you now need to prove your ability by completing a course at the Leadership Academy. In RSP, getting a ticket no longer depends on money—you need to pass an exam.  For years, we have witnessed the chaos outside leaders’ doorsteps in the months leading up to elections: briefcases exchanged for tickets and the deep-rooted practices of nepotism and favoritism. This bitter reality of Nepali politics has long been suffered by the people. Now, the Rastriya Swatantra Party (RSP) has introduced a decision that could shake the very foundation of how election tickets are distributed in Nepal. But what exactly is this Candidate Club and Leadership Academy? What does the Academy teach? And how does RSP intend to stop the broker system and the setting of ticket distribution?  In the upcoming loca...

Image: ChatGPT/Concept: LB Thapa   INDIA A land of warmth and warning for the female traveler By LB Thapa India is a country of profound contradictions. For the female traveler, it can be both enchanting and unnerving. On one hand, the subcontinent offers mysterious ancient temples, vibrant festivals, and legendary hospitality. On the other, headlines about brutal rapes, harassment, and theft involving foreign tourists have stained its global image. The question is not whether India is absolutely safe or unsafe — the truth lies in the gray space between fear and reality.  To deny the problem would be disingenuous. India has witnessed high-profile cases that rightfully alarm the world. In 2014, a 52-year-old Danish tourist was robbed and gang-raped in New Delhi’s Paharganj area, a popular backpacker hub. In 2019, a 28-year-old Brazilian national reported being gang-raped by seven men in the same city. These are not isolated whispers but documented tragedies. Foreign female trav...

Image: ChatGPT/Concept: LB Thapa   Harka Sampang: Nepal’s most productive unemployment killer By LB Thapa Psychologists and MRI experts agree: Harka Sampang might just be the most misunderstood creature to ever wander the Earth. Some even whisper that he has no mind to mind—which is convenient, because people across the country spit venom at him day and night. Does he care? Not in the slightest. You can’t offend someone who’s running on blank, as his critics lovingly put it.   But wait. Before you grab your torch and pitchfork, let’s talk about Harka’s one undeniable superpower: he has single-handedly employed more Nepali youths than any government scheme ever did.   No, this is not a dream. No, you do not need a resume. Let me explain.   The Facebook typhoon   Harka Sampang, the proud president of the Shram Sanskriti Party (SSP), has achieved what no politician has dared: he’s become the undisputed heavyweight champion of Facebook status updates. He doesn’t jus...

Image: ChatGPT/Concept/LB Thapa   Over one thousand JHOLE appointees of various political parties are confirmed to lose their jobs! By LB Thapa If you oppose corruption, mismanagement, nepotism, favoritism, black marketing, and bribery, then you must wholeheartedly appreciate and support Balen’s government. If you disagree with any of these, then you belong with Harke and his company.   Balen’s government has adopted a zero-tolerance policy against those thugs and parasites who grew rich by sucking the blood of poor Nepali people and hoarding stacks of notes in their homes. But even that wasn't enough. These political leaders went on to grossly misuse state power, making political appointments for their party cadres in as many as 52 government and non-government departments.   Now the government is preparing to sack around 1,200 political appointees made during the previous government's tenure, which had filled various state agencies with Congress, UML, and Maoist party c...

Image: ChatGPT/Read 2b Happy   The UK's quiet collapse By LB Thapa The United Kingdom was once the world’s dream destination. Today, however, many people there say that even buying food has become a struggle. At the same time, the country is facing a shortage of workers. On one hand, the cost of living has risen so sharply that people are finding it hard to afford basic food items. On the other hand, companies cannot find enough workers. The situation has worsened further as millions of people leave the UK every year. This raises an important question: Is the United Kingdom slowly becoming unlivable? And if so, what is happening to one of the world’s most powerful economies?   Cities like London were once considered global financial hubs, where dreams of career growth, high salaries, and a world-class lifestyle defined their identity. But now, the reality is changing—and this change is so significant that experts are calling it a "silent crisis."   The most alarming sign ...

Image: ChatGPT/Read 2B Happy     How Trump's goon diplomacy is bankrupting U.S. credibility By LB Thapa One should never forget that power comes with responsibility. The greater the power, the greater the need to behave responsibly. Many economically and militarily powerful nations act sensibly, intelligently, and diplomatically. But the way Donald Trump behaves can only be described as "goon diplomacy."   "Might is right"—this phrase fits Donald Trump perfectly. He appears to act more like a local thug (galika gunda) who intimidates nations and orchestrates the kidnapping of a sovereign nation's president. And that's not all. He also threatens to seize Greenland at any moment, spreading fear, panic, and terror among nations.   Trump’s reckless behavior has severely tarnished America’s image as a guardian of democracy. He is acting more like a brutal dictator—his actions even worse than those of Saddam Hussein or Muammar Gaddafi. Today, Donald Trum...

Image:ChatGPT/Read 2B Happy PM Balen’s axe falls: Asset investigation commission targets high-flying frauds By LB Thapa Those corrupt individuals who used to enter Singha Durbar wearing slippers and then within a year or two build mansions in Kathmandu and zoom around in shiny cars have now begun their countdown. The files of each and every one of them are about to be opened. To expose the horoscopes of their ill-gotten wealth, the Balen government has formed a powerful commission. The PM Balen government has taken a firm stand against corrupt and bribe-taking leaders and employees who, like leeches, have fattened themselves by looting the state treasury built from the sweat of the people. It has been confirmed that the files of those who have hidden millions and billions earned through corruption will now be opened. The government led by Balen has already formed an asset investigation committee to open the files of the corrupt. Following its commitment, the government led by Prime Min...

Image: ChatGPT/Read 2B Happy A grand plot against Sudan Gurung’s resignation By LB Thapa As Home Minister, Sudan Gurung took an aggressive stand against corrupt individuals, brokers, and middlemen. Young, energetic, and bold, his swift actions against corruption left wrongdoers restless and fearful.   Sudan Gurung also initiated a thorough judicial inquiry into some of the country’s most prominent business houses—the very same entities that had previously caused significant trouble for former Home Minister Rabi Lamichhane. These business tycoons soon turned their attention to Sudan Gurung. His rapid progress made them fear arrest and the potential collapse of their business empires, like a house of cards.   It became imperative to halt Sudan Gurung’s further actions against these powerful business houses. However, bribery and intimidation proved futile against a man as fearless as Sudan Gurung. The only remaining option was to create a public uproar over his purchase o...

Image: ChatGPT/Read 2B Happy   MONEY, FIRE, and FLIGHT: The case against the Deuba family By LB Thapa The law of karma spares no one. Whether it is KP Oli, Sher Bahadur Deuba, or anyone else, they must all taste the fruit of their own actions. Many VIPs, believing they were protected by a corrupt government, thought themselves immune to the laws of the nation. But they forgot that karma will find them when their pot is full of sin. Now, it seems that the time has come for many of them to face the consequences of their deeds.   Nepal Police have been searching for Congress President Sher Bahadur Deuba. However, while hiding abroad, he appears to be trying to destroy his own party. Deuba has caused such turmoil within the Nepali Congress that leaders and workers fear the party could split at any moment. Party insiders say Deuba has pushed forward his loyalist, Purna Bahadur Khadka, to finish off the Congress party.   Deuba initially went to Singapore under the prete...

Image: ChatGPT/Read 2B Happy PM Balen’s bargain: What Nepal wants from India By LB Thapa According to media reports, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi has invited Nepali Prime Minister Balen Shah. However, it is understood that PM Balen Shah has made it clear that he does not wish to visit India merely as a formality. He wants his visit to be both meaningful and fruitful. Many political experts believe that PM Balen Shah’s trip to India could prove crucial for both nations.  Soon after taking the oath as the 43rd Prime Minister of Nepal, he set out to transform the country. He has cracked down on corruption, jailed corrupt officials, and even put powerful leaders like KP Oli and Ramesh Lekhak behind bars. The anti-corruption campaign continues, with many more dishonest leaders facing imprisonment.   Balen Shah’s firm stance against corruption has earned him admiration, even from former opponents. Since he became Prime Minister, Nepalis living abroad have begun to feel ...
