	Arun Raj Sumargi is one of the most successful industrialists Nepal. Despite his busy schedules, he has managed his personal and professional lives in harmony. As a person who is the Managing Director of Hetauda Lime Industry, it is conceivable that he must busy around the clock with his profession. But the reality is contrary. Sumargi is family person.&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	Elaborating on how he manages his personal and professional responsibilities, he says, &ldquo;I take my family and my office side by side.&rdquo; Well that explains a lot.&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	Besides being a family man, Sumargi says he likes to be addressed as an &lsquo;entrepreneur&rsquo; who has love for all his fellow human beings especially the underprivileged and marginalized. Sharing his love for social service and his ultimate goal of contributing to the creation of a better society, he says &ldquo;I often spend my leisure time thinking of those people who are underprivileged and marginalised and how could I contribute for uplifting their existing conditions&rdquo;.</div>
<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	In his spare time, Sumargi loves travelling to different places across the country and loves to have his family along with him in this occasional travels. He is in love with Nepal&rsquo;s natural beauty and diversified culture. He believes that Nepal if explored and managed properly could be much famous than any other foreign country. &ldquo;Nepal is literally the heaven on earth&rdquo;, he says. Mustang and Ghodepani are two destinations that are too close to his heart. He is a traveller with a philosophy that focuses on understanding human conditions. He believes that &ldquo;travelling to a place is equal to reading 10 books.&rdquo;</div>
<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	However that does not means he does not read. He is an avid reader and his collections of readings mostly consist of non-fiction. Vaastu and literature are his areas of interest when it comes to buying books. He however does not believe in sticking to a particular genre and has a well founded reason behind it. &ldquo;If I stick into one genre, I am likely to become stereotype&rdquo;, he opines, &ldquo;I read all sort of books such as those related to economy, religion, social and philosophy.&rdquo; He says that he doesn&rsquo;t have anything like &lsquo;favourite&rsquo; but he especially likes to read biographies of world renowned figures. And most importantly he loves reading books from Nepali authors. He says that he doesn&rsquo;t miss reading books by new Nepali authors.</div>
<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	That&rsquo;s not all. This amazing entrepreneur has all the love for sports that include badminton, lawn tennis and cricket. He is the President of Cricket Association, Makwanpur chapter.&nbsp;</div>

	Arun Raj Sumargi is one of the most successful industrialists Nepal. Despite his busy schedules, he has managed his personal and professional lives in harmony. As a person who is the Managing Director of Hetauda Lime Industry, it is conceivable that he must busy around the clock with his profession. But the reality is contrary. Sumargi is family person.&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	Elaborating on how he manages his personal and professional responsibilities, he says, &ldquo;I take my family and my office side by side.&rdquo; Well that explains a lot.&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	Besides being a family man, Sumargi says he likes to be addressed as an &lsquo;entrepreneur&rsquo; who has love for all his fellow human beings especially the underprivileged and marginalized. Sharing his love for social service and his ultimate goal of contributing to the creation of a better society, he says &ldquo;I often spend my leisure time thinking of those people who are underprivileged and marginalised and how could I contribute for uplifting their existing conditions&rdquo;.</div>
<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	In his spare time, Sumargi loves travelling to different places across the country and loves to have his family along with him in this occasional travels. He is in love with Nepal&rsquo;s natural beauty and diversified culture. He believes that Nepal if explored and managed properly could be much famous than any other foreign country. &ldquo;Nepal is literally the heaven on earth&rdquo;, he says. Mustang and Ghodepani are two destinations that are too close to his heart. He is a traveller with a philosophy that focuses on understanding human conditions. He believes that &ldquo;travelling to a place is equal to reading 10 books.&rdquo;</div>
<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	However that does not means he does not read. He is an avid reader and his collections of readings mostly consist of non-fiction. Vaastu and literature are his areas of interest when it comes to buying books. He however does not believe in sticking to a particular genre and has a well founded reason behind it. &ldquo;If I stick into one genre, I am likely to become stereotype&rdquo;, he opines, &ldquo;I read all sort of books such as those related to economy, religion, social and philosophy.&rdquo; He says that he doesn&rsquo;t have anything like &lsquo;favourite&rsquo; but he especially likes to read biographies of world renowned figures. And most importantly he loves reading books from Nepali authors. He says that he doesn&rsquo;t miss reading books by new Nepali authors.</div>
<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	That&rsquo;s not all. This amazing entrepreneur has all the love for sports that include badminton, lawn tennis and cricket. He is the President of Cricket Association, Makwanpur chapter.&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	Sumargi wishes he would be glad if he did not have entangled in bureaucratic web, which according to him wastes most of his productive time. He laments that he could have used that time in more productive sectors that could contribute to national economy.&nbsp;</div>
<div>

<div>
	He has a strong dislike for engaging in unproductive activities and prefers to spend all his spare time with his family.

	<img alt="Ananda Raj Khanal" src="/userfiles/images/ANVT.jpg" style="float: left; margin: 0px 10px 0px 0px;width: 200px;" />Ananda Raj Khanal, Director and Action Chief at Nepal Telecommunications Authority (NTA,) prefers a boundary between his professional and personal life. And he has successfully avoided conflict between these two worlds working both as the Director of NTA and a visiting faculty at different universities of Nepal. Khanal has been teaching courses related to telecommunications and Information, Communication and Technology (ICT). Besides engineering in the telecom and ICT sector, Khanal is a gold medallist in Bachelors of Law (LLB), has deep interest in management and leadership and also in philosophy and spiritualism.&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	His life outside the office is not confined within four walls. Khanal says he is open to anything that comes his way during his free time. A confident and passionate person, Khanal has passion for reading, writing and public speaking. &ldquo;If I get more spare time, you will find me either reading, writing, speaking, listening to music or meditating,&rdquo; he shares.&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	A conscientious and dependable friend, Khanal likes spending his free time with like-minded friends &ndash; those with a passion for spirituality, philosophy and music. He also loves tranquillity and the company of his own self. He is also fond of introspection through meditation.&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	Holidays are mere getaways from the daily routine at work. For Khanal, it is an opportunity to freshen up and rejuvenate the self. He is a traveller without a plan. He says, &ldquo;I do not normally plan my holidays. I accept any good opportunity without much calculation.&rdquo; Khanal recalls his unplanned trips to Mustang, trekking in the Helambu region, Nagarkot, hiking in Shivapuri and numerous other impromptu tours as one of the most pleasing vacations of all time. If he is granted with extended free time, Khanal wishes to trek into the virgin lands of Nepal.</div>
<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	An avid traveller, Khanal does not have a particular favourite destination. Recently, he was in Seoul of South Korea for a business visit and says it was an enjoyable trip. Moreover, he jokes Pashupatinath and Swayambhunath temples are his frequent and regular destinations.</div>
<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	However, sports do not feature much in Khanal&rsquo;s leisure time. He says he has never been into sports even as a child. &ldquo;I do not play any games. But I used to play cards,&rdquo; he jokes.&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	Being an ICT professional, Khanal is surrounded by ICT tools and technologies. However, his life in social networking sites is limited by time and work load. He adds, &ldquo;I use them quite often but it depends upon the availability of time and my work load.&rdquo;</div>

	<img alt="Subodh Rana" src="/userfiles/images/mt.jpg" style="float: right; margin: 0px 0px 0px 10px;width: 200px; height: 225px;" />Balancing family life with a demanding professional one is a tough act to follow. However, Subodh Rana, CEO of Malla Travels and Trek Services, however, does not seem face much difficulty. Taking out time for his family or enjoying life beyond office hours is not a big deal for him. &ldquo;You just have to balance your work and family life simultaneously, and it is not that difficult,&rdquo; Rana says.</div>
<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	Being the CEO of a leading travel and trek company, Rana travels a lot which makes his life a continuous vacation sometimes. &ldquo;I travel a lot for my work or holidays. And though I spend a major chunk of my time in office doing office-related work, I make time to take my family along in my travels too,&rdquo; he says.&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	Rana shares that his favourite holiday destination is Malaysia. &ldquo;Because Malaysia is a liberal country and the culture and cuisine are very appropriate for Nepalis. I think it&rsquo;s a best destination for Nepalis,&rdquo; he says. &nbsp;</div>
<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	Apart from travelling, Rana indulges in two other things: Sports and Blogging.</div>
<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	A big-time sports lover, Rana&rsquo;s favourite is Lawn Tennis. If you can&rsquo;t find him in office when he&rsquo;s not traveling, you&rsquo;ll definitely find him playing tennis. &ldquo;Tennis helps me keep physically fit,&rdquo; he says. &ldquo;It rejuvenates the energy inside me.&rdquo;&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	Another equally big part of Rana&rsquo;s personality is that he is an active blogger. He engages himself in blogging whenever he gets spare time. &ldquo;I especially love to blog about history,&rdquo; he shares. &ldquo;As I am from a Rana family, the subject interests me over anything else.&rdquo; Blogging relaxes him from the everyday hustle bustle and gives mental satisfaction. &ldquo;Just as tennis is a physical exercise, blogging is a mental exercise for me,&rdquo; he shares.</div>
<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	Rana plans to holiday in Thailand next with his family. Keeping rejuvenated with his hobbies and his job, he definitely seems to find ample opportunity to break away from corporate monotony.</div>',

	Rana shares that his favourite holiday destination is Malaysia. &ldquo;Because Malaysia is a liberal country and the culture and cuisine are very appropriate for Nepalis. I think it&rsquo;s a best destination for Nepalis,&rdquo; he says. &nbsp;</div>
<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	Apart from travelling, Rana indulges in two other things: Sports and Blogging.</div>
<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	A big-time sports lover, Rana&rsquo;s favourite is Lawn Tennis. If you can&rsquo;t find him in office when he&rsquo;s not traveling, you&rsquo;ll definitely find him playing tennis. &ldquo;Tennis helps me keep physically fit,&rdquo; he says. &ldquo;It rejuvenates the energy inside me.&rdquo;&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	Another equally big part of Rana&rsquo;s personality is that he is an active blogger. He engages himself in blogging whenever he gets spare time. &ldquo;I especially love to blog about history,&rdquo; he shares. &ldquo;As I am from a Rana family, the subject interests me over anything else.&rdquo; Blogging relaxes him from the everyday hustle bustle and gives mental satisfaction. &ldquo;Just as tennis is a physical exercise, blogging is a mental exercise for me,&rdquo; he shares.</div>
<div>
	&nbsp;</div>
<div>
	Rana plans to holiday in Thailand next with his family. Keeping rejuvenated with his hobbies and his job, he definitely seems to find ample opportunity to break away from corporate monotony.</div>',
