	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span class="A4">V</span><span style="color: black;">isit cc’s home at Manbhawan, Lalitpur, and you are surely to receive a hearty welcome with warm cups of ‘special’ tea grown in his own Kanchanjunga Tea Estate. A well-known name in Nepal’s cooperatives sector, Baskota is buoyed up by the saying “Water the root, enjoy the fruit”. Recuperating from an accident he met with during a recent visit to London, Baskota feels life has given him another chance to serve the nation. A former State Minister for Home Affairs, Baskota, now 68, is no more into active politics. But he is actively involved in the management of various institutions such as Kanchanjangha Tea Estate and Research Center (the first Certified Organic Garden), Panchthar Multiple Campus, Naya Namuna Secondary School, Phidim, and Nepal Organic Foundation. “The work I have been doing for society is my way of doing politics,” he says.</span> <br />
	</span></p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="color: black;">Baskota’s inexhaustible zeal for creativity and active life does not let him feel ‘old’ though he is already in his late sixties. “Age should not have its face lifted, but it should rather teach the world to admire wrinkles as the etchings of experience and the firm line of character,” he shares cheerfully. He takes satisfaction in the fact that he is the founding chairman of National Cooperative Development Board (NCDB), National Cooperative Federation (NCF), and also the president of Himalayan Orthodox Tea Producers’ Association, and the Tea Development Alliance.</span> <br />
	</span></p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="color: black;">Baskota was brought up by his mother at his birthplace, a remote village in Panchthar district. He learnt to read and write through non-formal education in the village itself. “I was only 12 when my mother passed away. It was my brother who guided me and boosted my morale to tread the rocky roads lying ahead in my life,” Baskota reminisces.</span> <br />
	</span></p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="color: black;">Baskota spent his early young days rambling in the wilderness under the serene sky of his village. It was a time of complete freedom for him. Later, as time passed, something inside him urged him to get formal education. He then enrolled at Phidim High School in the district.</span> <br />
	</span></p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="color: black;">“Passing the SLC exam, also known as the Iron Gate, was a challenge. But I did it with ease,” he goes down memory lane. Hale and hearty Baskota takes a balanced diet, desists from eating meat items and meditates every day. He believes that it’s his positive attitude and ardent love for the motherland that make him feel he has miles to go in life. Baskota finds the slow growth of agriculture, purportedly the backbone of Nepal’s economy, distressing. He observes that most of the co-operatives in Nepal are related to agriculture and are thus the best friends of farmers. “It will take a long time to establish the cooperative sector as the real backbone of our economy, if the right action plans are not formulated immediately,” says Baskota.</span> <br />
	</span></p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="color: black;">Baskota joined politics at an early age. Back then in his village, Baskota was doing both teaching and learning simultaneously. Along with venturing into the spheres of politics and business, it was the love for his roots — the birth place - that motivated him to build a school there. At 21, he was included in the voters’ list and was also elected the Village Panchyat Chief. Baskota remembers an important event in life, which has left a deep impact somewhere on his mind. “While pursuing my Bachelor’s Degree, I got rusticated for three years because of my political beliefs. As a result, I had to discontinue my studies,” he flips back an important page of his life. His political path was shaped after he joined the Nepal Student Union (NSU), the student wing of the Nepali Congress. The topsy-turvy ride of his life took an unprecedented turn when he dedicated himself to the Cooperative Movement in the country.</span> <br />
	</span></p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="color: black;">“For me, politics is to make good policies and to work for the welfare of society,” he says. It was in 1996 that he got the post of State Minster for Home Affairs. According to Baskota, it was the seminal role he had played in the drafting of the Cooperatives Act and the acknowledgement of the same by the then Prime Minister Girija Prasad Koirala that landed him the important government position. Late Koirala always encouraged and motivated him to continue his good work, Baskota still remembers.</span> <br />
	</span></p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="color: black;">According to Baskota, the same act governs the cooperative sector even today. “I don’t call the present chaotic political situation a practice of true and good politics,” he admits with a deep disappointment. Baskota’s creativity in work, led him to develop Kanchanjunga Tea Estate (KTE) in 1982. He is proud to claim that the flourishing tea business in the east today was his initiative. Since its establishment, KTE has given jobs to more than 500 local farmer families. Baskota has dedicated 17 long years of his life to the National Cooperative Society (NCS) formed in 1993. He is still actively working as a Past President of NCS. He also founded Nepal Maharshi Vedic Foundation, recently.</span> <br />
	</span></p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="color: black;">Baskota believes that a person’s age is no barrier to work as long as s/he is healthy – mentally as well as physically. Updated with the latest management strategies, he borrows Mahesh Yogi’s words, “For an effective result, we should monitor for four hours and work for two.” He believes that one should be clear about his vision to reach the desired goal. According to Baskota, to start a new business, a manager should be loyal to his duties and employees need to abide by the rules and accomplish given responsibilities on time. “If both the manager and the employee work in equilibrium a good management is definitely possible”, Baskota shares.</span> <br />
	</span></p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="color: black;">Given the nation’s recent chaotic situation, he thinks, every citizen should have peace of mind first. Baskota says that, it is the stereotypical teaching methodology in our schools that makes the curriculum and learning experience boring. His recent trip to London made him realize that, all the learnt knowledge will bear no fruit without a practical education. “On the one hand, we lack enough skilled human resource, and on the other, our talented youth are brain drained,” he complains. Baskota believes that practical education should be given to all citizens. For him resolution is a must to accomplish every duty.</span> <br />
	</span></p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="color: black;">As a very sane piece of advice for the youths, Baskota says; “It’s the youth who carry the thoughts, vision and leadership needed for change. They should hence set their aims in lives at an early age and prepare for every rocky road ahead”. The new generation can learn the importance of patriotism and simplicity from him. Patriot at heart, Baskota wishes to see the nation prosper; and maintains that it is achievable through the development of agriculture sector. “A number of young Nepali talents are abroad at present. If we can bring them back to the country and persuade them to contribute in the field, it will be more fruitful for our economy,” Baskota believes. He also urges the youngsters to start meditating while still young.</span> <br />
	</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="line-height: 115%; color: black;">“I use the lessons from my experience and strongly believe that hard work and sacrifice is a must to climb up every rung of success,” Baskota says. Keeping intact with the zeal while still aging, he hates to waste time idle and instead likes to go through books and to meditate. He says his work, which includes occasional field visits to his various offices, keeps him busy. He loves travelling and has already been to many parts of the country. People close to him call him the ‘Father of Nepal Cooperative Movement’ and it gives him a warm satisfaction.</span></span></p>

	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span myriad="" style="line-height: 115%; font-family: ">Khem Raj Panta’s life took an unexpected turn after he came to Kathmandu in 1990. From his first business exposure with UPS and entering SkyNet in 1992 to starting his own business in 1997, he has come a long way. Today, there is apparently nothing that he is more passionate about and more committed to than business.</span></span></p>
<p class="Default" style="text-align:justify;line-height:10.05pt">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span class="A15">L</span><span style="color: rgb(33, 29, 30);">ooking at him stand tall with responsibilities of a host of companies on his shoulders, it is hard to imagine that he had no plans of becoming a businessman when he was growing up. Executive Chairman of Nepal Skin Hospital Pvt Ltd and Country Manager at SkyNet Worldwide Express, Khem Raj Panta has also held important designations in companies including Qantas Freight, DTDC Worldwide Express and Nepal FM 91.8. “It was accidental”, he bluntly answers to how he turned a businessman. Born in the hills of Gorkha and raised in the plains of Biratnagar, as a young boy, he aspired to hold a government position. The Pantas were not businessmen; business had never run in the family. <br />
	</span></span></p>
<p class="Default" style="text-align:justify;line-height:10.05pt">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="color: rgb(33, 29, 30);">Going down the memory lane, he recalls that his father always wanted him to take up science, particularly either medicine or engineering. However, his life took an unexpected turn after he came to Kathmandu in 1990. He got his first business exposure when he worked with UPS, a global company, for six months. He entered SkyNet in 1992 having cleared an interview and in five years’ time, he became the first person of the company. And then, his long journey of leadership in the field of business began in 1997. Today, there is apparently nothing that he is more passionate about and more committed to than business. <br />
	</span></span></p>
<p class="Pa10" style="text-align:justify;text-indent:14.0pt">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="color: rgb(33, 29, 30);">It seems distressing, having to handle so many responsibilities at once. Panta admits that although it is a tough job, he goes about accomplishing his work with the help of his team and the system behind him. He believes that team building, system building and channeling are crucial aspects of business and management. Although there are no hard and fast rules to his management philosophy, he does live by three words like a mantra “honesty, hard work and commitment”. While he is thankful towards J N Shetty, MD at SkyNet Mumbai, for guiding him, Panta had no godfather to look up to when he entered business. Whatever he has earned and achieved till now, it is due to his hard work and ability. <br />
	</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="color: rgb(33, 29, 30);">He is very committed to his work; and works from 7 am to 10 pm on a normal day. His work demands a lot of travelling across the world and in long flights. When he is travelling, his flight hours are also his prep hours; he uses the time to do his homework for the visiting purpose. One very important characteristic of his is that he worships time and values every minute of the day. Even when he is abroad, he doesn’t </span><span style="color: rgb(33, 29, 30);">spend a day extra than demanded by his work unless he is on a planned vacation. Panta is strictly against wasting time.</span> <br />
	</span></p>
<p class="Pa10" style="text-align:justify">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="color: rgb(33, 29, 30);">For this businessman, his friends and family have always been a strength factor. When asked about important people in his professional and personal life he instantly remembers two other people besides his wife and son: brother-in-law Kiran Acharya and partner Bijay Rijal. Panta’s wife above all is like a backbone to him. Ever understanding and ever loving, she helps him keep calm and be patient in affliction. For 20 longs years, she has always stood by him. “She is a wonderful woman, a wife, a friend and most importantly an advisor to me,” he says. Besides wife Nirmala’s significance in his life, he has another advisor in the family, his 18-year-old son Aashish. Panta believes in the importance of quality education and has always sent his son to the best of schools. Currently, Aashish is pursuing his BBA at GD Goenka World School. <br />
	</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="color: rgb(33, 29, 30);">&nbsp;He listens to his son because for him it is important to keep up with the new generation. With father’s wisdom and son’s freshness, the Pantas share a relationship that stands on friendship within and beyond the family. Panta has begun grooming his son for the business world already. They attend business meetings together whenever his son is free. Some time ago, his son even looked after one of his business ventures for six whole months. Panta sees a potential businessman in his son. He confesses that it is difficult to balance time between family and work, and compromises have to be made sometimes. However, whenever he is with his family he gives his 100 per cent to them, “Saturday is an absolute family day for me” he justifies his claim. Once in a year, Panta and his family also fly to a holiday destination.</span> <br />
	</span></p>
<p class="Pa10" style="text-align:justify">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="color: rgb(33, 29, 30);">Despite the hectic schedule and a number of responsibilities attached to his designations, Panta leads a modern healthy life. He is an Osho follower; and hence he meditates for 30 minutes every day. He also runs and sometimes swims at the club. He is fit and healthy and hence plans to work hard in the coming decade while he still has the oomph of business in his soul. “I don’t want to die working like most Nepalis do”, he says. <br />
	</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="line-height: 115%; color: rgb(33, 29, 30);">After the age of 55, he plans to hand over his responsibilities to a new generation of leaders and retire willingly. Panta has neatly outlined his retirement plan already and shares it enthusiastically. He plans to divide a year into four perfect halves, each for a destination. He plans to spend three months each in Kathmandu, Gorkha and Delhi where his beloved friends are and the remaining three months travelling around the world with his wife.<br />
	</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="line-height: 115%; color: rgb(33, 29, 30);">There were two major turning points in his life. The first one was his association with SkyNet, where he understood what his purpose in life was and the second one was the birth of his son. His son’s birth was like a lucky charm and opened all the doors of opportunities for him one by one. However, time is god to Panta and he credits his respect for time as the main reason for where he stands today. <br />
	</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="line-height: 115%; color: rgb(33, 29, 30);">He has a few simple but powerful messages for the entire new and emerging generation of entrepreneurs - young entrepreneurs should not be involved in politics and young talents should not migrate abroad because if there is one place that has enormous potential for business it has to be Nepal. Finally, Panta says, “I know, the new generation is in a hurry to succeed and it is only natural for them to want so. But, you should understand that there are no shortcuts to success. You have to be patient.”</span></span></p>

&quot;Times New Roman&quot;;mso-bidi-theme-font:minor-bidi;color:#221E1F">eorge Bernard Shaw once said “Some men see things as they are and say why - I dream things that never were and say why not.” Similar has been the attitude of this ambitious businesswoman Seema Golchha throughout. Carving out a niche for herself, she has been making her presence felt in the Nepali business sector. In the male dominated Nepali society, when Golchha decided to join her family business, it was something unusual. Never before had any woman from the Golchha family forayed into business. She confessed that her father-in-law was the one to motivate her to join the business. Ever since she took a bold step toward business, there has been no looking back. </span></p>
<p class="Pa8" style="text-indent:14.0pt">
	<span style="font-size:10.0pt;
color:#221E1F">&nbsp;Exploring the lesser known, and rather personal side to Golchha, she reveals to you, her journey from a young, liberal and warm hearted Indian girl to being the daughter-in-law of one of the most reputed business house in Nepal and finally to establishing herself a successful entrepreneur.</span></p>
<p class="Pa8" style="text-indent:14.0pt">
	&nbsp;<span style="font-size:10.0pt;
color:#221E1F">“I always had a smile on my face, she said, recalling her childhood days. Brought up in Lucknow and Dehradun, Golchha had a happy childhood. She completed her schooling from Dehradun and pursued her higher studies in Delhi University. She was always a vivacious and an independent girl. For her, the inspiration to lead an independent life always came from her working mother. Unlike ordinary women thirty years ago, she lived independently in a flat and worked for advertising agencies. <br />
	<br />
	<img alt="" border="1" height="424" hspace="10" src="http://newbusinessage.com/ckfinder/userfiles/Images/personaliity_3.jpg" vspace="10" width="366" /><br />
	</span></p>
<p class="Pa8" style="text-indent:14.0pt">
	<span style="font-size:10.0pt;
color:#221E1F">However, things changed completely for her when she got married to Shekhar Golchha who belonged to a completely different cultural background. “I was leading a very modern and liberal lifestyle before marriage and hence getting married to a conservative family brought a huge cross-cultural transition in my life,” expressed Golchha. Although it took her some time, she eventually adapted to and adjusted with the new environment that she was placed in back then.</span></p>
<p class="Pa8">
	&nbsp;<span style="font-size:10.0pt;color:#221E1F">Golchha, who has perfectly balanced her personal and professional life, believes that time management is the key to balance in life. Wife of a businessman and a mother of two, she is also a perfectionist. Although it is not possible to score 10 / 10, she, as a mother, a wife, and an entrepreneur, is doing justice to every role with sheer conviction. . Enjoying every moment of the day, she still tries to work out details in whatever she engages. “We should always give our cent percent in whatever we do,” she said. </span></p>
<p class="Pa8">
	<span style="font-size:10.0pt;color:#221E1F">Entering business was intentional for her, as she always had an interest in it. “I am happy being involved in business as it recharges and completes my life in a way,” she said when asked about her professional life. She started her business with a women’s showroom in Durbar Marg. Since then there has been no looking back for her. <br />

<p class="Pa8" style="text-indent:14.0pt">
	&nbsp;<span style="font-size:10.0pt;
color:#221E1F">“Success is important, but it is not everything,” said Golchha. She believes that every step taken towards achieving your goal counts. It doesn’t matter if one succeeds or not, it is important that one should work hard to meet own expectations and goals. When she first joined the family business, a showroom like Samsung Plaza was an innovative idea. It was very rare in Nepal to find such a range of electronics under one roof. Today, 10 years later, she is expanding the exclusive outlet of Samsung electrical appliances across the country. Despite many obstructions like load shedding and strikes, she is also looking to further expand her business by launching two more Samsung Plazas, a Timex Watch outlet and a Bajaj Appliances outlet. She strongly believes that if you have faith in yourself, nothing can stop you and hence she is </span><span style="font-size:10.0pt;mso-bidi-font-family:&quot;Myriad Pro&quot;;color:#221E1F">moving ever onward. </span></p>

	&nbsp;<span style="font-size:10.0pt;
mso-bidi-font-family:&quot;Myriad Pro&quot;;color:#221E1F">She has always held the view that women should be empowered. Hence, most of her employees are young, motivated girls. In her line of business, it is important to understand customers’ temperament because at the end of the day, customers’ satisfaction is what matters most. So, when she is recruiting her employees, academic qualification is not all that she looks for, she also observes their personality. When asked about her management strategy, she shared that it is important to provide employees with space for innovation in order to improve and upgrade the company’s status. It is also important to provide enough opportunity for communication between management and staff. She also makes sure to set an example of dedication, in order to motivate her employees. </span></p>

&quot;Myriad Pro&quot;;color:#221E1F">She is surely dedicated to her work but a trekking enthusiast, Golchha doesn’t forget to take a break every now and then. For her, friends and family are an integral part of her life and she lets her hair down while having fun with them. She believes that socializing is an important aspect of both personal and professional life. She is also an avid book reader. With her life moving back and forth between so many roles of a woman, she still manages to maintain equilibrium in her life. With an amazing life graph and career ladder, she is beauty with not only brains but also balance.</span></p>

color:#211D1E">oung Min Bahadur Gurung had strong faith in making history one day. His parents too had a dream that he will be a great personality of the country in due course of time. It was the major reason behind his parents’ decision to send him to a good school although his was a big 10-member family. Born after five sisters, he was raised as a pampered son in the family and provided with facilities that a son usually gets in the Nepali society. Two younger brothers were born after him. During his early schooling, Gurung was touched by the story about Madam Curie inventing bean size radium after melting 17 tons of stone. Megnath Lamsal, his teacher at high school, left a deep impression on him. The teacher’s lessons motivated him to do well in life and reach greatness one day. “I was very fond of Lamsal Sir and liked his classes much. I developed a strong belief in myself and was committed to work hard for success,” he recalls.</span> <br />

	<span style="font-size:10.0pt;mso-bidi-font-family:&quot;Myriad Pro&quot;;color:#211D1E">Born in Dube, a village in Khotang district, Gurung had schooling up to SLC at different schools nearby. Unlike other young boys of his time, he was very energetic and hardworking. He enjoyed his schooldays even though he had to walk two hours daily to go to the school. Despite being a good student, Gurung failed in the SLC exams. It came as a shock for all the teachers, students and his own family who considered him as a bright student. He didn’t take it as a setback though and tried his best to overcome the failure by studying harder. </span></p>
<p class="Pa10" style="text-align:justify;text-indent:14.0pt">
	<span style="font-size:10.0pt;mso-bidi-font-family:&quot;Myriad Pro&quot;;color:#211D1E">Reflecting back on his SLC failure, Gurung says that it actually made him the person he is today. He elaborates, “Because I failed my SLC exams, I did not pursue science stream later. Had I cleared SLC in my first attempt with flying colors, I would have other ideas about my future course of life and ultimately miss this fantastic business opportunity that I have today. </span></p>

mso-bidi-font-family:&quot;Myriad Pro&quot;;color:#211D1E">Gurung started helping his family in farming after his intermediate degree. In Bhadra 2031 BS, he started planting rice, harvesting maize and other jobs required by the farming demands. During this period, he fell terribly sick and survived the ordeal somehow. Gurung’s father decided that enough was enough. Until now, he always insisted to keep his dearest son close to him but following the incident, he advised him to go to Kathmandu and study further.</span> </p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:10.0pt;mso-bidi-font-family:&quot;Myriad Pro&quot;;color:#211D1E">Gurung had his first job as a record keeper who recorded attendance of daily wage laborers. He shares, “I was given Rs 400 by my father when I left for Kathmandu so I had to find a job anyhow to sustain.” He was soon hired in Nepal Bank Limited and was given a position in Nepalgunj. However, after two years, he managed to find a posting to Kathmandu and started pursuing a master’s degree shortly afterwards. He would attend college in the morning and work at the bank as his full time job.</span> </p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:10.0pt;mso-bidi-font-family:&quot;Myriad Pro&quot;;color:#211D1E">A permanent job at the bank encouraged him to settle down in life. He married Sabitri Gurung, a girl from his own village who was pursuing her intermediate degree in Kathmandu. Meanwhile, he also started selling goods which built the foundation of his retail business. Gurung later turned his part time retail business as a full time profession when he realized the potential that the business offered. He established Bhatbhateni Cold Store in 2041 and expanded his retail shop on the second floor of the store in due course of time.</span></p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:10.0pt;mso-bidi-font-family:&quot;Myriad Pro&quot;;color:#211D1E">As fate would have it, his store caught fire in 2047 BS and caused him a financial loss of around a million rupees. Gurung says the fire at Bhatbhateni was a turning point for him and he learnt a lesson the hard way to take his business more seriously. Three years later, he established Bhatbhateni Departmental Store. “I am a different type of person who believes in growing plants on rock. It is not possible to stop at a failure when you have a great vision,” he says.</span> </p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:10.0pt;
mso-bidi-font-family:&quot;Myriad Pro&quot;;color:#211D1E">Even today, despite all the success, Gurung consults his wife as before while making business strategies. He remembers the time when he had to invest the same gold in his business that he had gifted to his wife earlier. She joined his business within a few days of delivering their first child Kamana. “It was quite amazing that she could join the store within a short period after the delivery of our first child,” he reminisces. He rues the fact that he finds himself unable to give enough time to his family due to a busy schedule. It is hard to find him relaxing much but when he does so, he listening to music from stalwarts such as Narayan Gopal, Bachchu Kailash and Ani Choying Dolma.</span> </p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:10.0pt;mso-bidi-font-family:&quot;Myriad Pro&quot;;color:#211D1E">Starting his grocery store with an investment of Rs 35,000 in a small single shutter, his business today is worth billions of rupees with five huge outlets in the Kathmandu valley and one in Pokhara. It was dream come true for him when the construction of his four huge supermarkets was completed last year. The construction of supermarkets in Kathmandu was overseen by his wife, son and daughter while he was busy taking care of the construction of the Pokhara outlet. As many as 50 people from his family circle are involved in the business, informs Gurung.</span> </p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:10.0pt;mso-bidi-font-family:&quot;Myriad Pro&quot;;color:#211D1E">He says that support from the people and the facilities provided at the Bhatbhateni outlets have made it a successful supermarket chain. His stores registered overwhelming business during their respective openings. The Bhatbhateni outlet at Pokhara was opened not too long ago and the story there was no different either with thousands of people swarming the store for several days. “We had to cease either the upstairs or downstairs lifts every hour to manage the heavy crowd. There were people coming from Gorkha, Butwal and Lamjung as well,” he recounts.</span> </p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:10.0pt;mso-bidi-font-family:&quot;Myriad Pro&quot;;color:#211D1E">Gurung believes that failures pave paths towards new directions and trigger innovations. Bhatbhateni Supermarket employs 22,000 people currently and Gurung hopes that the group will have 50,000 employees in its ranks in 15 years time.</span> </p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:10.0pt;
mso-bidi-font-family:&quot;Myriad Pro&quot;;color:#211D1E">As part of its corporate social responsibility, the group helped construct an emergency ward having 72 beds at Tribhuvan University Teaching Hospital with a spending of Rs 100 million. Gurung has named the ward after his parents whom he holds in very high esteem. He has also been providing yearly scholarships to two MBBS students, especially the ones who originate from remote villages. “We will all die one day so it is important that we set apart a certain percentage of our earnings for social causes,” he reasons. Gurung thinks it is rather unfortunate that not many people spare a thought for the less privileged.</span> </p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:10.0pt;
mso-bidi-font-family:&quot;Myriad Pro&quot;;color:#211D1E">He plans to spend his retired life as a social worker. “I still believe in doing jobs which others haven’t tried before and hope to work for the well being of the society,” he says. He recommends people to believe in themselves to make it successful in life and be a part of the history.</span> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">
	<span style="font-size:10.0pt;line-height:115%;mso-bidi-font-family:
&quot;Myriad Pro&quot;;color:#211D1E">Gurung dreams of making Bhatbhateni a multinational company and an international shopping hub as well as plans to spread his business all around the world. His passion of expanding Bhatbhateni’s business reflects strongly in his statement, “This has become a part of my body; it pains me if something goes wrong in the company.”<br />

	<br />
	An admirer of Steve Jobs, Binay Bohra believes in living by creativity. He feels proud to be able to give something back to the society through his contribution to the IT sector. A computer engineer by profession, Binay likes to explore the tremendous potential of the Internet. Steve Jobs once said, “Creativity is just connecting things. When you ask creative people how they did something they feel a little guilty because they did not really do it, they just saw something. It just seemed obvious to them after a while.” <br />
	<br />
	Binay Bohra, Managing Director of Vianet Communications Pvt Ltd, one of the leading Internet service providers (ISP) of Nepal finds a connection to the creative forces of cosmos. He sees new creations going on constantly in the universe. He has understood the life’s purpose – to create something new in life. He says, “We are part of the universe where creative energy is in abundance. I have always had a healthy feeling that I must create on my own and do something new.” Looking at his ISP business, he has created a link for people to connect to the vast internet that quenches people’s thirst for information, knowledge and entertainment. Moreover, he has also created employment opportunities for people in his organisation through the Internet services he offers. <br />
	<br />
	Having completed his higher studies in India from Bangalore University in 1995 in Computer Engineering, he returned to Kathmandu and joined Mercantile Communications. His parents had migrated from Darchula, a district in far western Nepal. Bohra says his father, who made a big contribution in the telecommunication sector of Nepal himself, had also inspired him to become a computer engineer. <br />
	<br />
	While working for three years at Mercantile, he developed the confidence to do something on his own. The Internet boom was gradually catching up in Nepal, however, there were few ISPs to cater to the growing demand of the Internet. The knowledge Bohra gained in the classroom was juxtaposed with the experience collected via his work. Vianet Communications was created in 1999 after he joined his hands with his likeminded friends. Ever since the company was conceived, Bohra and the company have been constantly moving towards the vision that was envisaged in the beginning. <br />
	<br />
	Vianet was one of the pioneers to offer dial-up Internet in the Kathmandu valley. The company now offers the Internet through the latest technology such as fibre optics to those who want to get connected to high speed Internet. Likewise, it offered cheap and reliable Internet at a time when slow and costly dial-up and NTC’s leased lines were the only options, claims Bohra. He says his company was also the pioneer in offering the Internet over Wi-Fi in Nepal. Today, he says, his company has the robust network to reach offices and homes everywhere. <br />
	<br />
	Whenever Bohra was asked in his childhood what he wanted to be, he used to say that he aspired to become a scientist. “Though I did not grow up to become a scientist, I am still into a creative field,” he says. He completed his schooling and college from St Xavier’s in Kathmandu. He says he possessed leadership quality since his childhood. Bohra used to be the captain of the football and athletic teams during his school days. “I have always believed in having a leadership role so I was interested in doing something on my own. I had always dreamt that I would be an entrepreneur with specialisation in a certain sector,” he recalls. <br />
	<br />
	Bohra has received a lot of support from his family too. Though his spouse runs a firm of her own, she also helps him in his work. “We have our separate businesses and are entrepreneurs in our own right. We are happy that we are into a creative sector that creates jobs and is an interesting world, similar to the creation going on in the universe,” he says. <br />
	<br />
	Bohra does not exert pressure on his offspring to follow a specific path. He would like to see his son grow into a balanced person. “It is not necessary that he should become a doctor or an engineer. I will support him in whatever he wants to become according to his personal interest. He should have that confidence to do what he wants to do,” he says. <br />
	<br />
	Bohra who is also the President of Internet Service Providers’ Association of Nepal (ISPAN) feels that this is the age of the Internet as our lives revolve around it. According to him, it is the source of educational materials, entertainment and various activities like listening to songs, radio, reading newspapers and magazines, watching TV, shopping, e-payments etc. Therefore, he has further plans on offering the Internet with ease to his customers. “Our aim is to make this service reliable and provide high speed network facilities. We are working on it and will come up with various applications and uses for customers,” he shares. He says that the competition is too tough and ISPs have to compete with the telecom operators too as they are also offering high speed Internet. <br />
	<br />
	He thinks that the current political environment is not favourable for doing business. Nevertheless, he feels nobody should stop working because of the external factors. “It has discouraged those who want to do something on their own. But, we have to go on working at our end,” he says. Being from an IT sector he admires Steve Jobs, co-founder of Apple Inc. Bohra likes his way of working – hearing to his inner soul without caring what others say rather than following somebody else. He considers Jobs as a successful and visionary leader. Similarly, he also admires Mahatma Gandhi as a fighter who overcame challenges. <br />
	<br />
	Bohra believes that management philosophy varies from personto- person and also the nature of projects. He believes that there is no shortcut to success and taking up leadership position requires dedication, understanding and intense involvement in the project. “One must work extremely hard because the world has become so competitive. It’s good to be smart, wealthy and lucky but the most important one is the self-belief and confidence,” he opines. He believes mistakes made could be corrected midway. “Mistakes are our learning opportunities but the focus should always be on the target,” he adds. For Bohra, success is multifaceted. He believes that success cannot be measured with the rise and fall in career only. “A person may have a highly successful business but what if his family life is wrecked? Likewise, a person may work hard and earn a lot of money. But it is of no use if his health does not favour him. So, a balanced life is a must and most importantly, you must do something that satisfies your heart,” he explains. <br />
	<br />
	Bohra thinks that the human resource is the most valuable asset for any organisation. “Leaders cannot perform alone. If a team works as a single entity with the dedication on a single mission without refining human resources and rightly managing and understanding the value of people, it is impossible to achieve success,” he says. In his company, Bohra ensures that he hires better people every time. He thinks that intellect should be the basis of recruitment and a team should not be formed based on recommendations alone. <br />
	<br />
	Bohra thinks that working within the country is the biggest contribution to the society. “We live in a society where we may have been doing some creative work and it might have benefited many. It is also possible that people are inspired and enjoying work because of us. So, working here with our own people is more important” he opines. Bohra wishes to diversify his area of operations and is looking forward to work in newer sectors apart from the IT industry. Similarly, he also wishes to take out more time from his routine work and do something more interesting in life. <br />

	<strong>By Gaurav Aryal <br />
	<br />
	</strong><br />
	Ritu Singh Vaidya, Managing Director at United Traders Syndicate Pvt Ltd (UTS), has enjoyed every role she has stepped into. When she walked on the ramp, she mastered it with her style. When she was on the stage, she cherished the music and touched the listeners’ heart. Now, she is handling the position of a leading business person very well. Model, former Miss India, singer and now a businessperson; Vaidya has perfected the responsibilities she thinks are brought to her by destiny and her dedication in the pursuit of dreams. <br />
	<br />
	<img alt="Ritu Singh Vaidya" border="1" height="362" hspace="5" src="http://newbusinessage.com/ckfinder/userfiles/Images/personality(3).jpg" vspace="5" width="300" /><br />
	<br />
	<br />
	Ritu Singh Vaidya always dreamed to set up her own business although she was at the pinnacle of her modelling career. With twists and turns of her career that were never disappointing for her, she has now climbed up the ladder towards a leading position in one of the leading business houses of Nepal, Vaidya’s Organisation of Industries and Trading House (VOITH). Her working style is ruled by discipline as she was raised in a family with partly business and partly army background. <br />
	<br />
	Vaidya recalls her childhood in Delhi as “nice, pleasant and loving”. She feels fortunate about having pleasurable childhood days. Her grandfathers were in the business sector and were running their family business in present day Pakistan. She says her grandfathers moved to Delhi when she was an eighth grader. She was educated in Delhi and after completing school, Vaidya pursued fashion designing for her higher studies. She is also a BA in Economics and Political Science from Delhi University. <br />
	<br />
	It was obvious for the beautiful and charming Vaidya to be offered a career in glamour and modelling industry. She believes destiny took her into the world of modelling. “I was in class XII when my friends and I participated in the May Queen contest. So, that was the beginning of it.” She was crowned the May Queen title. She actively began modelling after many offers started coming her way. Her journey on the ramp did not stop immediately though. She went to the Miss India contest and grabbed the title that many Indian women dream to achieve – Miss India – in 1991. After winning the title at home, her next target was to win international titles. Vaidya became the fifth runner up in Miss World, second runner up in Miss Asia World and first runner up in Miss India Universe. <br />
	<br />
	“I took it (modelling) on because it just came to me. It happens that things suddenly start working for you and I think they are the natural things to happen because they just come your way,” she says, “But I always had an entrepreneurial spirit in me. I always wanted to establish myself in some kind of business where I felt challenged. I am someone, who likes a routine, discipline and innovativeness.” Vaidya believes she was always inclined towards business. Even during her modelling days, she would dream of getting into some sort of business in the future. “I wasn’t somebody who was going into Bollywood” she says. <br />
	<br />
	Vaidya says she has never been a person who is devoted to only one thing. “When I got into the glamour world, I was also very focused on my studies and about what I was going to do next. Though I was very much enjoying it, I couldn’t see myself turning forty on the ramp,” she explains. <br />
	<br />
	Everything was organised and settled for young Vaidya even at the age of 20. She says she was almost leading a life what people start mostly at their middle ages. She was just 20 when she met businessman Suraj Vaidya in Kathmandu at a charity fashion show organised by him for Bal Mandir. The professional acquaintance grew into love and later to marriage within a matter of years. Vaidya recalls that the initial days of living in Nepal after her marriage was completely different from her earlier days. She says it was a total change in her life, family, career and friends. “The first year of marriage was difficult because I was not used to a lot of things. But my husband made it very easy for me as he was very easy and patient about me even when I went back to Delhi 15 times in 12 months,” she shares. <br />
	<br />
	Vaidya ventured into fashion designing in her initial days in Nepal and worked as a fashion designer for seven years. That was the time when she was also rearing her child. Vaidya stopped designing clothes and dived into her new found passion – singing. She released an album, ‘Sun Zara’ and appeared in her album’s music videos as well. However, she has abandoned her role as a singer as she thinks it consumes a lot of her time and takes her away from her family. “When I released my first album, I really thought I can manage singing simultaneously with my business commitments but later I realised it is not so. For Hindi singing you have to be in Mumbai and be accessible whenever somebody calls you. That was not something I was looking for and desired in my life. Singing for films and doing stage shows is not my cup of tea.” She started taking responsibilities in VOITH when Suraj Vaidya was busy travelling and spending time for larger business responsibilities. <br />
	<br />
	“He had a great ideology on which everybody was moving and that was a great success too. Once he was unwell and had to take rest for treatment. That was when I took up the work,” she says. At present, she is completely looking after UTS and its divisions that deal in Toyota and heavy equipments. Along with it, she occasionally looks after the spa she has set up a few years back. When it comes to working approach, she says, “My approach is very simple. I try to simplify things and believe in a totally centralised command. But jobs are designated to different people and they have a total free hand in what they do. But yes, it has to be totally accountable.” She encourages flow of new ideas from her employees but feels that the final central command has to be strong enough to prevent things going haywire. Vaidya thinks employees are most happy when you let them do the work, give them a good working environment, be ready to listen to their suggestions and at the same time reward them for what they do. Vaidya has a disciplined working style. “Because I am disciplined, a lot of my staff has to be disciplined. They can’t take anything lightly because they know when I say something that needs to be done. I am very focused on making sure that whatever needs to be done, should be done in the given frame of time,” she emphasises. <br />
	<br />
	<img alt="Ritu Singh Vaidya" border="1" height="460" hspace="5" src="http://newbusinessage.com/ckfinder/userfiles/Images/personality1(1).jpg" vspace="5" width="300" /><br />
	<br />
	Vaidya reveals that her organisation is planning to expand into newer sectors like hydropower, hospitality and education. She is trying to consolidate what is already with the organisation along with planning of new ventures. She says, “Hydropower should be there soon as it is already in the pipeline and we are seriously looking into hospitality. Hopefully, we will be coming with new ventures in the next two years if we don’t have external disturbing factors like endless bandhs and political crisis.” Vaidya believes that she has not earned enough money to spend on charities and philanthropic activities. “I believe in doing philanthropy with my own money. I won’t be convinced about it if I am going to throw somebody else’s money and call it a charity. If I can do well and manage to spare money from my earnings; that is the right kind of charity that I would want to do.” <br />
	<br />
	She thinks she is very compartmental and does not like to mix her personal and professional life together. So, she never takes her office to home. “My time is totally devoted to home when I am home. Similarly, when I am in the office, I give all the time to my office works,” Vaidya reveals. Evenings are for her son and husband while she reserves her morning time usually for exercising. A strong believer in destiny, Vaidya is very satisfied with what life has brought to her. She takes her life as it comes and is ready for wherever it leads to. Optimistic in nature, one shouldn’t be surprised to find her trying new things, ventures and passions in the days to come. Her well wishers shouldn’t be astonished to see her in a completely new avatar not too long in the future. <br />

	<br />
	<strong>PERSONAL SIDE <br />
	</strong><br />
	<br />
	<strong>Take on success:</strong> I am a very happy content person. Nevertheless, the day I do not want to do anything more, I would think that I am dead. From that point of view, there is a lot more to do. <br />
	<br />
	<br />
	<strong>Planning a holiday:</strong> I like things to be done perfectly and neatly. I make sure I do a lot of research on wherever I am going and know the places so that I won’t miss what I want to see and what we are going to do. I like my travel to be organised right from my ticketing and stay to every itinerary and the places where we are going. <br />
	<br />
	<br />
	<strong>Brand consciousness:</strong> If something is nice it does not need to be branded. I believe in being comfortable and wear what I think looks best on me. <br />
	<br />
	<br />
	<strong>Secret of beauty: </strong>Fitness is something I really believe in. You should be very fit because body is the vehicle that carries you. So you have to take care of it. <br />
	<br />
	<br />
	<strong>Spending leisure time:</strong> Reading and listening to music. I read more of philosophies and autobiographies. I love Indian classical music and mostly listen to Hindi music and instrumental and for English, I like jazz and more soulful songs. <br />
	<br />
	<br />
	<strong>Favourite pastimes: </strong>I love to sing and do gardening and am passionate about my house. Therefore, I love cleaning on my off days. <br />
	<br />
	<br />
	<strong>Better mother or a better boss: </strong>I try to justify every role - a good mother, good wife, good house keeper and a good business person. <br />
	<br />
	<br />
	<strong>Favourite Travel Destination: </strong>Paris among all because it is the most romantic and artistic city and also Venice. Turkey was also a very nice place where we went recently and Russia turned out to be a pleasant surprise. <br />
	<br />
	<br />
	<strong>Sporty indulgence: </strong>I used to be a badminton champion in my school. I adored playing volleyball and basketball but now I am more into gymming. <br />

<p>
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><img align="left" alt="presonality" border="1" height="288" hspace="10" src="http://newbusinessage.com/ckfinder/userfiles/Images/rana.jpg" style="margin: 10px; padding: 10px; width: 222px; height: 288px;" vspace="10" width="222" />Shreejana Rana is one hotelier who distinguishes herself from many others in a variety of respects. As Director CSR and R&amp;D of Hotel de lâ Annapurna, which is doing reasonably well as a hospitality entity, she believes,Survival is not enough, we need to get better. This very go-getter attitude of hers has resulted in the hotel's massive renovation and upgradation endeavours of late. I am working hard and giving it all I have to ensure that my hotel lives up to its much revered tagline No. 1 Address in Kathmandu, she confides. Rana thinks it is best to take her chances nowbring back the glory of yesteryears and make a premium 5-star property out of the hotel that it once was, rather than wait endlessly hoping for perfect conditions to make investments.</span></p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Born to Late Kiranendu Malla and Late Kendra R L Malla, she lost her father when she was barely two-years-old. Rana credits her mother, widowed at the young age of 21, for single-handedly raising her younger brother and herself. She says, My mother's courage, hard work and the love she bestowed upon us, despite numerous challenges, have inspired me to respect and uphold family values.While admitting that she had a privileged upbringing which included the best schooling one could think of, Rana led a simple life with plenty of values and discipline her family instilled in her. In those days, rules were made by the parents and never questioned, she elucidates.</span></p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:12px;">An alumnus of St Mary's High School in Jawalakhel, she finished high school from Cambrian Hall, one of India's premier private schools located in Dehradun. Immediately afterwards, she got an opportunity to train with the ITC Welcome Group for five years in the early 1990s. And it was during her learn-onthe- job stint with the ITC when she came across Kapil SJB Rana, a dashing hotel heir who had just returned from England after completing his studies. I helped him get acquainted with Nepali customs as he had practically lived his entire life abroad and knew little about Nepal,she blushes reminiscing her early courtship days. As fate would have it, she was to marry him in due course of time. My family was happy about it and supported my decision wholeheartedly,she shares.</span></p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:12px;">A very ambitious person, by her own admission, Rana also has a soft corner which has led her to being a social entrepreneur. She is a firm believer in empowering women through entrepreneurship and an ardent supporter of fight against heart diseases. While she believes that success is absolutely important and intends to leave no stone unturned to achieve it, she also has the heart to think about people who are less fortunate and wants to give back to the society. Early into her professional career, she dabbled as a fashion entrepreneur with her boutique Image Fashion House at Durbarmarg.</span></p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:12px;">We were involved in organising the 1st Miss Nepal pageant and managed costumes and choreography part of the event,she tells excitedly. Being an emotional person since a young age, social work came naturally to Rana. She is associated with a number of organisations to help fulfill her social responsibilities. Her social undertakings include associations with Jayanti Memorial Trust (JMT), Women Entrepreneurs Association of Nepal (WEAN), SAARC Chamber Women Entrepreneurs Council (SCWEC), Association of St Maryâ's Alumnae Nepal (ASMAN),</span></p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Burn Violence Survivors Nepal (BVS-N) and Federation of Women Entrepreneurs Association of Nepal (FWEAN) among others. I believe in getting women trained and educated to empower them rather than spoiling them with cash money. It is more important to guarantee how money gets utilised, she says. And then adds, If corporate entities in Nepal are only seen making money but not giving back anything to the society, it will be difficult to survive in the long run. As the gap between haves and havenots widen further, social tensions that Nepal already suffers from will reach an unprecedented high. Having lost her father at a time when she was just about starting to know him, left a deep impact on Rana's psyche.</span></p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Hence, she wants to make sure that her two children 13-year-old daughter Keshya Rana and 6-year-old son Satyajot Rana receive the best parentage, My husband and I want to give them the best of both parents and family values. She aspires to give her children quality education and exposure so that they can grow up as capable individuals and stand on their own feet. They must equip themselves and prove their worth. I don't want them to take the family legacy for granted, she elaborates. Rana further assures that Keshya, a boarder of all-girls Downe House School at Berkshire in England, and Satyajot, a student of British Primary School in Kathmandu, will be free to chart their own career courses and won't be pressurised to join the family business. While agreeing that she is very content as a person, Rana wishes her mother was alive today to see her treading a successful trail.</span></p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:12px;">How I wish I could spend more time with her,she gets a tad emotional. Growing up in a close knit family and a comfortable set up, she has never let her affluent background go to her head. She philosophises, I have been very fortunate with my wants and desires so it has been smooth sailing all along with no major regrets whatsoever. A house-proud person, she sees to it that her children eat at home whenever they are around. She believes that her husband, as a thinker, is the right kind of motivation she has in life,He has always been my backbone and encouraged me to move ahead. Just when I thought I knew her well enough by now,</span></p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Rana narrated an anecdote to me, which she says was an eye-opener of sorts for her.Due to my penchant for seeking women rights, my husband once wondered if he has deprived me of anything in life. It made me wake up to a realisation that I need to be more sensitive towards people who are dearest to me, she recounts. A complete believer in putting her time to good use, Rana signs off on a defining note,I have to constantly work towards ensuring that I am worth my being which makes it all the more important for me to have my own identity.&nbsp;</span></p>',

<p>
	<span style="font-size:12px;">The entire business community is yearning for a favourable investment climate. Each and every business house and enterprise is waiting for the moment that is unlikely to arrive anytime soon. Sandeep Sharda, the Director of Sharda Group, one of the largest business houses of Nepal, is not pessimistic though about the situation but prefers to play it safe like his peers in the business community. He says he is not so comfortable in venturing into new projects and making any significant moves other than keeping the current ventures alive.</span></p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:12px;">The conglomerate has interests in manufacturing and trading of industrial goods to consumer durables and nondurables. The journey of Sharda Group began with garment trading almost 100 years ago. Real success of the group began after Shardaâ€™s great grandfather established a rice mill at Lahan in 1948. The success of the company began with this very business. Sharda has been involved in the family business since his 18th birthday. Being the eldest son in the family, he has given his all to take the family business ahead. Today, the group has an annual turnover of more than US $ 150 million.</span></p>

	<span style="font-size:12px;">Pioneer Carpet Industries, Shangrila Housing, Bajra Shangrila Residency, Infratech and Shivam Cement Industries are some of the companies Sharda oversees that are either established by him individually or under joint ventures. Born in an industrial family, doing business was in his blood and during his school days, he dreamt of having his own business.</span></p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><img align="middle" alt="personality" border="5" height="243" hspace="4" src="http://newbusinessage.com/ckfinder/userfiles/Images/1stof.jpg" style="margin:10px;padding:10px;" vspace="4" width="300" /></span></p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:12px;">A television set used to be the object of desire those days, he says. So, I wanted to import and sell gadgets like TVs and VCRs, he adds. Sharda was pursuing his college degree in Kolkata when he had to return back to Nepal since his father was unwell. His brothers were young and studying abroad. So, being the eldest son, he had the responsibility to take care of his father and the business. Sharda successfully took up the responsibilities on his shoulders and became occupied. In the bargain, he could not pursue his education further than the bachelor level. Sharda began his career as a business person in the early 1990s.</span></p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:12px;">The lucrative returns from carpet trading lured him to indulge further in the trade. He says the returns and travel opportunities created by carpet trading made him choose this sector. His first venture, now named Pioneer Carpet Industries, was a success for young Sharda as the carpet industry was booming and its export was at the peak. He claims, I became one of the largest exporters in Nepal and was felicitated with numerous awards by the government including Commercially Important Person within seven to eight years. His success in carpet trading inspired him to venture into many other businesses in the future. After Pioneer Carpets, he started importing reconditioned cars from Japan in 1994 which, unfortunately, did not yield profits to him. â€œI believe in destiny and I thought it was not meant for me so I dropped the project,' he admits nonchalantly. Sharda prefers joint ventures. He explains, You cannot think and do everything on your own. It's good to have likeminded people with whom you can share your ideas and visions and produce something great.'In partnership with his close friends, he has set up housing projects like Shangrila Housing and Bajra Shangrila and the largest cement industry of Nepal, Shivam Cement, which is soon going to begin operations.</span></p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Living in a joint family where every member is passionate about business, decisions are made jointly. He says, 'Nobody decides alone in our family, we talk to each other, share ideas and discuss in detail before reaching any decision.' Sharda believes that the business focus should be on ensuring a good turnover. He suggests that an aggressive attitude does help achieve business goals. 'Where there is an opportunity for profit, there will be a chance of making loss too,' he says. Sharda recommends aspiring entrepreneurs to be practical and believes everything can be achieved with hard work, dedication and by setting a clear goal. According to him, there are no alternatives to sincerity, honesty and punctuality which are essential for registering success.</span></p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Even though success in any business is determined by profit and turnover, he opines that success is not only about making a huge amount of money. He philosophises, 'Success is also about giving back to the people in the society in the form of employment or offering them the best products and services with honesty and sincerity. There are so many other things that are much valuable than money itself.' Sharda trusts his colleagues much and believes in assigning appropriate roles to people working with him. He maintains a close relationship with his employees and keeps himself updated about everything. 'I talk to each person every day, talk to the team leaders and get reports and feedback,' he tells. He likes to maintain a distance between his personal and professional lives. He spends around nine hours for his work and prefers to have after hours and weekends for his family and kids. 'I have two wonderful children and it is good to see them growing up. The moments I spend with my family are more fun than my work but business is my profession and I love running it, he proudly states. He also loves to spend time with friends, listen to music, watch movies and attend parties when possible.</span></p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Likewise, he likes to travel and considers himself fortunate to have travelled many countries for his vacations and business trips. Sharda is also involved in philanthropy and is an active member of Kathmandu Metro Round Table 4, an international organisation. Our slogan is Freedom through education and we build school buildings in various parts of Nepal as well as sponsor needy children through fund raising,â€ he says.&nbsp;</span></p>

I am not currently happy with the pace this sector is moving at, he expresses his displeasure. He is on a wait and watch mode and does not have any new projects lined up in the foreseeable future. Doing business is a very challenging proposition at the moment so I am just giving continuity to my current ventures, he shares. He dreams of achieving the kind of success which he thinks he has not tasted yet. And that's precisely why he prays for a suitable business environment as soon as possible.&nbsp; <br />

	<img align="right" alt="" border="1" hspace="5" src="http://newbusinessage.com/ckfinder/userfiles/Images/golcha.jpg" style="width: 339px; height: 589px; margin: 10px; padding: 10px;" vspace="5" />Young , dynamic and a businessman at heart, Hemant Golchha is the Executive Director of Golchha Organisation, a leading corporate house of Nepal with a nearly 100 year long history. He is one of the successful young entrepreneurs who dreams success for his ventures and goes about achieving them. Ram Lal Golchha, the great grandfather of Hemant Golchha, sowed the seeds of Golchha Organisation almost a hundred years ago. He started the business with exporting jute from Nepal to industries in India. The business gave him lucrative returns and inspired to venture into other projects. Golchha says that his great grandfather had played an important role in establishing the first industry of the nation&nbsp; Biratnagar Jute Mill. Ram Lal Golchha established his own jute industry followed by steel industries. </p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
	 </p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
	He never looked back and a perpetual growth always followed the Golchhas. Hemant Golchha is a fourth generation businessman and his five younger brothers have also joined the business. He has put his efforts with new vision and thoughts to steer the family business in new areas. He has the promise to lead the organisation with the same dignity and success that his earlier generations had achieved. Golchha grew up in a close-knit joint family and his childhood was not completely different than any other child's. He recalls having fun during the days when relatives gathered at home for festivals. He says, It was a lot of fun and I enjoyed growing up in a joint family. We used to have a good time with school friends as there was nothing to worry about. He would visit Biratnagar for festivals where half of his family members were living. </p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
	 </p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
	Despite being from a privileged family, he was taught to be honest, humble, simple, truthful and unpretentious about being wealthy. Our modest ways made sure that the family enjoyed a certain level of respect in the community. We never ran businesses solely for the purpose of making money, says Golchha. Golchha completed his schooling from St Xavier's School at Jawalakhel and then attended St Joseph's College of Commerce in Bangalore for his intermediate and undergraduate degrees. He regrets that he could not pursue a master's degree once he started shouldering business responsibilities. He recommends youngsters to complete studies before joining business. </p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
	Once you get involved with a business, it is difficult to find time, he reasons. After returning from Bangalore, he spent around two years training with various industries in Nepal and Australia and joined his family's business in 1992 at the age of 24. G o l c h h a w a s g i v e n t h e responsibility of managing Koshi Metal, a tin container manufacturing industry in Biratnagar. To his credit, he successfully made it a profitable proposition from being a loss bearing industry. In his much younger days, he aspired to be like his great grandfather. </p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
	I always wanted to be like him and follow the path he has shown&nbsp; the path of integrity, dedication, honesty and no compromise between business and hard work, he explains. Vijay Mallya, a celebrity businessperson from India inspired him to live life king size and enjoy the wealth earned from business. It is not a bad thing to enjoy our earnings. He was one of my idols during my college days because of his lifestyle, says Golchha. He believes he was destined to be a business person since he was born in a business family. Everything moved gradually in the direction it was supposed to move and entering the business was his obvious goal. Golchha's maternal grandfather and uncle were into film making which has ignited a desire in him to turn a filmmaker some day. I have not thought about making movies as a profession but only as a hobby. I will definitely make a movie some day, he states enthusiastically. </p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
	He was also active in motorsports during his college days that speak volume for his versatility. He asserts even if he was not born in a business family, he would have still pursued a career in business. Though, of course, he credits his family for what he is today and acknowledges that his business lineage made his job that much easier. Golchha's career that began with container manufacturing continued with added responsibility in other sectors as well. He was assigned to lead Shree Ram Sugar Mill in Rautahat since 1994. He made a historic move in the family's business by making inroads into remittance, tourism and housing sectors that were never part of business with Golchha Organisation. Equal to 25 per cent of Nepal's GDP is received in the country as remittance and another 25 per cent is from travel and tourism. If you do not have a presence in the areas that are equal to some 50 per cent of the nation's GDP, you cannot call yourself a large business house. This is what influenced my decision to venture into these areas, he says. Hulas Remittance has become one of the largest Western Union agents and figured among top ten money transfer companies in the country within five years of its commencing operations. </p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
	<br />
	Golchha started a travel and tour company last year, Travel World Experiences, which focuses on inbound tours. He is optimistic that it too will prove to be a successful venture in due time. Meanwhile, he also decided to make a foray into the real estate sector in association with a few friends which resulted in the establishment of Shangrila Housing. Golchha believes that maintaining a leading position largely depends on performance. He says, You might do very well one year but you may not do so well the next. He is dedicated and focused to make sure that his businesses attain success and has no desire to hog the limelight. I want my projects to be more recognised than myself. My total joy lies in the success of my business ventures and the positions they hold in the market. Travel opportunities that come as part of doing business is one of the most charming aspects, he says.<br />
	<br />
	I also enjoy being at my office and like working with the team members who are more like my friends, he states. The financial crunch being experienced by the economy worries him a great deal and this is one aspect he does not like about doing business. With a very forthright vision about doing business, he philosophises, If I don't enjoy doing a particular business, I will rather do something else. Golchha believes that employees are the soul of a company and having a good team is essential for its success. If you compromise while putting together a team, your business will never succeed. We are only entrepreneurs and without a good team, we cannot do everything on our own, he says. He is of the opinion that it is important to provide good remuneration and environment for motivating the human resource. He says, It is vital to give people a sense of belonging.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
	<br />
	He prefers to decide from the heart while dealing with colleagues, employees and customers. A workaholic during the initial days of his career, he has now changed his working style somewhat due to added family responsibilities. He gives a lot of time to his family and returns home early to spend quality time with his two children. He also plans a holiday every year with his family to explore a new destination. Likewise, he also takes out time for his friends and likes to hang out with them at coffee shops. Golchha likes to watch entertaining movies and listen to Hindi music during his free time and also plays games with his kids. He is quite a party animal and usually spends his Friday evenings at different parties booked by friends. He hits the gym regularly and runs for around half an hour every day. He has a long list to do before he dies. Going on a long road trip from Kathmandu to Europe via Iraq, Iran and the exotic lands, is one of them.</p>',

<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Gyanendra Bhakta Joshi, Managing Director of Swift Air, is determined to touch the sky with his dream project. It is his passion for aircraft and tourism that drove Joshi to set up his own airline. He says he decided to venture into the airline sector to set a milestone in the aviation market.<br />
	<br />
	</span></div>
<div>
	<div style="text-align: justify;">
		<span style="font-size:12px;"><strong>By Gaurav Aryal<br />
		<br />
		</strong></span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Once on the day of Vijaya Dashami, Gyanendra Bhakta Joshi's elder brother blessed him that he would own an airline one day. While working with Skyline Airlines that is not in existence today, Joshi secretly wished he would have a company of his own. His dream got a new life after meeting Bishnu Prasad Khadgi, now his friend and business partner.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><br />
	</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Joshi is Managing Director (MD) of Swift Air Nepal Pvt Ltd, a newly established domestic airline. Swift Air is planning to commence its operations from October. He said that the company is bringing in two aircraft in first phase. Of these two, the first one is to arrive in October. Joshi, enthusiastic about making his dream project come alive, is spending day and night just to make sure that his dream is realised.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><br />
	</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">It was in the alleys of Ason that Joshi wandered around as a child. Though his ancestors were from Bhaktapur, his grandfathers moved to Kathmandu. He went to St Xavier's School Godavary and later transferred to Ananda Kuti Vidyapeeth at Swayambhu, where he completed his schooling. He credits St Xavier's for making his academic base strong. Joshi graduated in Commerce from Shankar Dev Campus.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><br />
	</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">His family had a hardware store at Ason. Joshi's father and grandfathers had dedicated their life entirely to business. But his uncles took to the service industry. Joshi followed their footsteps and landed in the tourism sector.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><br />
	</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">He began his career from assistant level in Everest Express Tours and Travels around 25 years ago. That was my first job and I was paid Rs 400 a month, he recalls. In the following years, he worked in Pristine Travels, Tiger Tops Resort and even USAID. Then, I entered the aviation sector with Skyline Airlines in a managerial position, he shares his journey to the airlines business. He has even worked as Sales Manager with GMG Airlines of Bangladesh. I like this sector, so, now I am fully into it, says Joshi. He says his career in the tourism, travel and airlines helped him develop a passion for these areas. Joshi reveals, he is obsessed with aircraft and often visits websites of Boeing and Airbus to update himself with the latest developments and innovations. Now, I have my own aviation company because of that passion, he boasts. Joshi is proud that he has made his brother's blessings become a reality.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><br />
	</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Joshi counts Skyline's Executive Director Dorje Sherpa as his aviation guru. Whatever I have learned, I learned it from him. I express my gratitude to him for what I have become today, he acknowledges. The aviation know-how did not easily make him the MD of Swift Air. Joshi's hard work, dedication and struggles have paid off.&nbsp;</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><br />
	</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">It was three years back that Joshi had thought of setting up an airline and he even started working towards that. Unfortunately, it did not turn into reality. After one and a half years, he met Bishnu Prasad Khadgi who is now Executive Chairman of Swift Air. With one year of homework they received AOC (Air Operator's Certificate).&nbsp;Joshi's two sons who are living overseas are happy to know about their father's venture.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><br />
	</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Khadgi is his only business partner now. Though they had targeted to fly from January 2011, they are now planning for an October launch. Cost is too heavy as it requires setting up offices in every destination. However, this also creates job opportunity in every destination we reach. I feel proud to give employment to more people, he says.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><br />
	</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Joshi says his company will have around 70 staff members in the beginning. According to Joshi, good incentives and listening to their complaints will motivate staff. He feels that boss is not always right. Joshi thinks staff is the asset of a company. I advise and assist my staff as and when required. I will treat all my staff equally, he shares his human resource management principle. He believes in giving opportunity to new comers too.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><br />
	</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Joshi does not believe in interfering much in the office management. Although, he wants the line of communication maintained.We just want to know what employees are doing. They must also feel that they are working for their own company and we believe they will. When the company prospers, they will prosper too, he opines.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><br />
	</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Joshi does not have much to complain about the aviation policy of Nepal. However he is dissatisfied with air traffic problems. He urges the government to find a solution as soon as possible. He sees a good future and market prospect for the travel industry. He reveals this is one of the reasons behind establishing his airline business. He observes that the tourism sector is growing more every year and he wishes it to boom in the future. According to Joshi, aviation industry is doing well. He says, We established the company with the motto: Let's be a part of aviation team in Nepal.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><br />
	</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Joshi has already thought of expanding the business in the future. However, he and Khadgi do not have plans to do it within two years. They want to first sustain in the competitive market. After two years, we will go for expansion,he discloses.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><br />
	</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">I am more focused on my dream project, he says with a touch of grit. At least 12 hours of his day is spent in work. Joshi says he gets time for his family only during mealtime. However, on Saturdays, when he is mostly on leisure, he loves to go on a drive with his wife. Apart from that, his free time is spent meeting with relatives, staying at home, watching TV or listening to music. He does not usually travel but he promises to do so as his new venture will require him to travel. At times, Joshi feels lonely when his sons are not with him. He says being away from sons have become his part of life. Joshi lives with his wife at Sitapaila.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><br />
	</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Joshi does not have regrets about his career. He feels he is happy with what his life has given him. I have settled down and I possess everything I need, he expresses contentment. The only regret he has from his life is that he could not save his mother who was suffering from cancer. He took her to the best hospitals in Mumbai and Delhi but she could not be saved. That was the saddest part in our life: for me and my family. It has been almost 15 years, but still I feel like crying when I remember those times, he gets sentimental.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><br />
	</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Joshi's life is closely knit with his profession and his dream project.&nbsp;His wishes, his dreams are associated with his newly established company. I just want to see Swift Air growing.&nbsp;The more it grows, the more people will be employed. And, I wish we could add more aircraft to the fleet, he says.</span></div>

		Moti Lal Dugar, 65, believes he is the most fortunate person to be born in a business family. It takes a little more than a hint of luck to take an already established business house to the next level of success. Dugar is an heir to 127 years old business legacy of the Dugar Group.<br />

<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 14.15pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Dugar is now Chairman of TM Dugar Group that has a wide array of interests ranging from banking, hydropower, automobiles, agro solutions, life insurance, FMCG products, agro based industries, consultancy to automobiles, among others. He is also Chairman of Sunrise Bank Ltd and Gurans Life Insurance Co Ltd, two public limited companies promoted by TM Dugar Group with some friends. Dugar says he does not like to be involved in any politics of business and never wished to be a front runner in any association. However, he feels it is okay to be associated with those forums which are directly related to his business and trade. He is the Treasurer of Nepal-USA Chamber of Commerce and Industry and Forum of Nepalese Banks.</span></div>

<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 14.15pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Dugar was born and educated in Biratnagar. He went to Adarsha Vidyalaya, a school that has produced a number of prominent entrepreneurs and politicians. He received education till BCom at Mahendra Morang College. The Dugars were one of the well-off families even during those days. He recalls the range of luxuries available at his home those days bullock cart, horses, maids and servants. During his college days, Dugar used to ride a Honda 250cc motorcycle imported from Japan. He remembers the first family car a Land Rover. During his student days, he was one of the good students in class though he never stood among the top three. Sport was not his cup of tea either. However, as a child, he was fond of traditional children's games like marbles and <i>dandi biyo</i> among others.</span></div>

<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 14.15pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">He was in his early teens when he began working in his family business. At the age of around 17, he took up full responsibility and started looking after some of his companies. At that time, Dugars were in a joint family and living in Biratnagar. His elder Brother Tola Ram Dugar was looking after the business after their father died. After Tola Ram Dugar passed away in May 2011, Moti Lal has taken over the lead of the TM Dugar Group. Moti Lal was just 11 when his father passed away. Young Dugar began his career at the textile shop. Gradually, he started visiting industries and understood the knots and bolts of handling a business. He took up the responsibility from keeping accounts to making contracts, looking after exports, export-import contracts and even LCs. The initial business of the Dugars was textiles and agro products. The business was later expanded to jute export, steel factory, rice mills and others.</span></div>

<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 14.15pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">The process of expansion in fact never stopped. In the same course, the family shifted to Kathmandu. The family business was sector-wise divided among four brothers. Among those, Moti Lal got the automobiles business for which he was working since the beginning. It has been four decades since he began working in this sector. Now, he is also a specialist in automobile, banking and insurance. He is planning to venture into hydropower. The Dugar group has always been the leading industrial group of Nepal. Dugar is content with the growth and development of the company. He says, â€œOur family always aimed at taking the business to next level. So far, we are satisfactorily moving ahead. We are successful in maintaining the leadership position in every business we ventured into.He adds that his company has been successful in sticking to its principle. Maintaining the status achieved in the course of 127 years is what Dugar feels is a matter of satisfaction and an achievement in itself. </span></div>

	<span style="font-size:12px;">He feels he inherited the success that was accomplished by his parents and senior family members. He gives the credit of his company's success to them, especially his eldest brother late Tolaram Dugar whom his regards as high as his father not only as elder brother. More importantly, he feels he inherited the trust and belief of Nepali people in his group. He expresses pleasure to be born as a business person. He does not have any regrets about having the career that he thinks was destined for him. According to Dugar, job satisfaction is the most pleasing aspect of the business.</span></div>

	<span style="font-size:12px;">Dugar claims that honesty is the everlasting principle of the Dugar group. Dugar explains, <img align="right" alt="intreview" border="1" height="331" hspace="10" src="http://newbusinessage.com/ckfinder/userfiles/Images/sep-per1.jpg" style="margin:10px;paading:10px;" vspace="10" width="400" />â€œHigh degree of honesty must be maintained. Customers should not be cheated. A business can never sustain without customer's trust. The group has been working with such vision and belief.Dugar believes clients are the incarnation of Goddess Laxmi Goddess of wealth and she should not be cheated. He says thanks to such principles, the group is valued high in the market today.</span></div>

	<span style="font-size:12px;">For Dugar, profit, loss or big money is not the measure of success. He says, There are many other groups who have more money than us. We began from scratch and achieved this status. We are satisfied with this. Our business image has never been lower than others and that has been a matter of pride for us. He identifies success in the manner the people recognise and trust the group. Profit and loss is something that keeps changing but the recognition does not and it will lead to profit and stability of the company. He feels his next generation has a ready path shown by the long history of the group. They don't have to work too hard. They just need to add cherry on top, he says. Fifth generation of the Dugar family his grandchildren will soon join the business after their education.</span></div>

	<span style="font-size:12px;">The group that was initially into the food grain and agro based industries stepped into the service industry through banking and insurance around five years back. Dugar sees the future of Nepal in three areas hydropower, tourism and agriculture. He says Nepal cannot compete with India and China with a high cost of production by subsidising industries with a bundle of discounts and waivers. Although the Dugar group does not have any plans to venture into tourism sector, it will soon be developing hydroelectricity projects. The group is planning to develop more than 170 Megawatts of hydroelectricity in the near future. Pan Himalaya Energy Pvt Ltd, Global Hydro Power Associate Pvt Ltd and Numbur Himalaya Hydropower Pvt Ltd have been established by the group for&nbsp;tapping hydropower potentials in the country. He thinks hydropower is a money-making industry that has huge export potentials although it is a capital-intensive sector. He says hydropower is liked by the world for its environmental benefits and sustainability.</span></div>

	<span style="font-size:12px;">On Nepal's failure to develop hydroelectricity sector despite huge potentials, Dugar says, All political parties must have genuine commitment for the development of the nation. Everyone must shed his leg-pulling attitude and should respect others' ideas if they benefit the nation. Such massive projects will not be possible without foreign investors. They must be welcomed anyhow. Investment worth billions of rupees will not come just with phoney speeches.</span></div>

	<span style="font-size:12px;">While deciding anything about the companies in the group, one person looking after a particular sector never interferes with another. He reveals that there will be discussions on visions and plans and anyone in the family can invest if he has interests.</span></div>

	<span style="font-size:12px;">In the TM Dugar Group, 1,500 employees are working. Dugar says a separate committee looks after the human resource management. He says human resource is the real capital of any company. So, we provide handsome salary as motivation. People working here have a distinct and prestigious life, he says. He reveals that employees are quite steady with the companies. He shares numerous examples of people working in the group for as long as three generations.</span></div>

	<span style="font-size:12px;">Dugar says he does not have uber luxury in life. He likes to lead a simple life and does not have any luxurious demands. Dugar gets up at six in the morning and goes to health club. For remaining healthy, he exercises everyday and is conscious about food habits. After having breakfast, he goes to his office between 10 and 10:30 in the morning and returns home at around 8 pm. He does not have much interest in social parties and rather feels annoyed if he has to frequently attend them. He thinks partying more than once a week is too much. He loves watching television, chatting with family, reading newspapers and listening to music. These are his favourite pastimes. He does not work on Saturdays. His mornings and evenings are dedicated to his family.</span></div>

	<span style="font-size:12px;">When he has to suggest anyone who wants to follow his footsteps, he says: Do anything with dedication, focus and honesty. Do not dive into anything seeing someone else making profit. It is wise to focus on expanding what you already have. The competition is so tough so you must be careful while investing. You may lose your hard earned money. In this regards, I am quite conservative.</span></div>

	<span style="font-size:12px;">When it comes to charity and philanthropy, he believes in building hospitals rather than building a temple. When we have some problems (health) we need hospitals as temples cannot cure us. Building a hospital is more spiritual than a temple. It does not mean I am atheist but I believe more people will benefit from a hospital,â€ he opines. He adds hospital is for service while a temple is for satisfaction. A hospital built by his late elder brother has been handed over to Koshi Zonal Hospital in Biratnagar.</span></div>

	<span style="font-size:12px;">Dugar does not believe in a retired life. Though 65, he looks much younger to his age and is actively involved in business. He says, Retirement makes one feel old and weak. It diminishes the capacity as well as the prestige. Everyone respects active person. I believe one should not retire and should work as long as one can. </span></div>

His jewellery business has expanded to USA. Today, he is Chairman of Maharjan Group that owns five companies - Nepal Diamond Company, RB Diamond Jewellers, Nenergy International, NB Nepal Builders and Maya Foundation.

	<span style="font-size:12px;">Maharjan's childhood was largely spent in the agricultural milieu. His parents were farmers in Lalitpur but they had a sense that their children must go to school and get education. He passed his School Leaving Certificate from Namuna Machhindra School at Lagankhel. He passed Intermediate from Patan Campus. However, he did not take his education further.</span></div>

	<span style="font-size:12px;">Maharjan and his family did not see their farm leading them anywhere. â€œI did not see any future there,he says. Since my childhood I thought of doing things differently and in the best possible way.Maharjan says business was sitting deeply in his mind. He was concentrating on agriculture thinking he will land a good job some day.&nbsp;Apart from his works in the field, he was active in the local clubs, libraries, and in the locality and even won a local election. At times, he thought of going for foreign employment as well.</span></div>

	<span style="font-size:12px;">His young romantic days were going on. Then, his family insisted him to get married. Though young Maharjan was determined to make his dreams come true before tying the nuptial knot, he surrendered to his family and married Sarita Maharjan with whom he was in love. Sarita turned out to be his lady luck. At that time, he was just 18. Sarita's family was in Hong Kong. Maharjan's in-laws invited him to Hong Kong as they thought there is not much scope in the country. Then, he took a job in Hong Kong at a wholesale company of diamonds as a helper.</span></div>

	<span style="font-size:12px;">He proved his honesty and won the confidence of the bosses. So, he was gradually given more tasks of messenger and even handling banking transactions. They even tested my greed and left thousands of dollars in open drawers when I was the only person in the office. Next morning, they used to cross-check. I never thought of betraying them but was dedicated to perform well to get more salary in a legitimate way, he narrates how he passed the tests.</span></div>

	<span style="font-size:12px;">Working for the whole day had a benefit that he never felt homesick. He claims he worked from 5 am to midnight so that he can sleep quietly at night and does not have to miss his family back home. He was always conscious and determined that one day he has to return to Nepal. While in Hong Kong, he developed the interest in diamonds and also thought of taking something back. Then, he requested his employer to get him some training so that he can learn about diamonds. He says, My boss was a friendly person and he used to help us with everything as he understood we the foreigners will return if we were not given proper facilities. He was also happy to see my eagerness developing for diamonds and arranged for a basic training from the very next day. After completing his works in the office, he would go for training from 9 pm to 11 pm. </span></div>

	Maharjan shares, I acquired basic knowledge on types, grading and assorting diamonds. Then, I requested my employers for further trainings. Later, he was sent to Mumbai for a six-month training at the company's factory for cutting, grading and polishing. I was there just to gain knowledge on diamonds. So, I did not even cross the railway station and kept myself fully focussed on my training. In the beginning, I felt quite uncomfortable as I did not even know how to hold a diamond properly. Gradually, I learned everything, he recalls. </span></div>

	<span style="font-size:12px;">There too he spent the whole day pondering over the diamonds. He claims he grabbed things quickly and could separate colours within two weeks. As he learnt things he also started working there though he was not being paid. At the end of six months training, he was found to be performing&nbsp;well like veterans of the industry, he claims. When he returned to Hong Kong, the company's views about him changed. He was promoted to sales department. However, he did not stop learning while on the job. He says, For a couple of years more, I learnt from the market on pricing and quality and even on the ways of marketing.</span></div>

	<span style="font-size:12px;">After staying for around seven years in Hong Kong, he decided to return to the country as the family also asked him to do so. When he returned, he was not alone. He had knowledge, skills and even money to invest in the business of his own. For three months, he carried out a kind of market survey, leaving no jewellery shops unvisited. In three months, he found expertise missing from the sector in his country. The way of working was not appropriate either. Then, I felt in markets like Nepal, such valuable things can only be sold with a guarantee and not as use-and-throw item, he says.<br />
	<br />

<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 14.15pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">He sees a lot of artisans and craftsmen&nbsp;here but their ways of working worry&nbsp;him. Maharjan believes that best masterpieces can be created in Nepal itself, which will have the potential to be sold anywhere in the world. I encourage people in this business to create fusion of our traditional knowledge with the modernity, he says. He does not see any competition in the field of creativity.</span></div>

<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 14.15pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Maharjan has always prioritised doing something new than simply following what others are doing in the crowd. That is the mantra to be on the top, he believes. Then, he initiated manufacturing in a professional manner as he was not satisfied with the quality of locally-made jewelleries.</span></div>

<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 14.15pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">For Maharjan, business is more than profit and margins. He believes jewellery business cannot sustain without goodwill and trust. He describes, Customers must be assured that they will get back cash upon returning the products. My target is to do marketing through quality rather than advertisements. Maybe, that is why he claims that he has never advertised his jewellery store or even kept a billboard with the showroom's name. He claims he gets customers through trust and goodwill gained by selling quality products.</span></div>

<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 14.15pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Maharjan sees the jewellery market growing in the last four years with a definite change in lifestyle of people in Nepal. In the past, only head of the family used to earn but now everyone makes some earnings. They can afford what they desire for. Rather than copying others, now people want something unique to look different,he explains. He adds that it is Nepali culture to invest in jewelleries and houses as&nbsp;assets rather than luxury.</span></div>

	<span style="font-size:12px;">Maharjan says he is very much satisfied with what he is doing. His business philosophy based on service rather than just selling precious metals has grown multinational. He has stores at Manhattan Fifth Avenue, Alaska and a distribution point in Los Angeles. In 2005 the first store was opened in USA on his wife's insistence. Now, Maharjan's in-laws are looking after the stores there. We wanted to see how it works outside and we had that confidence too. We were overwhelmed by the response of people when we put up a stall for the first time at a programme organised by Nepalis in America,he proudly shares. He claims he sold jewelleries worth US$ 10 thousand within half an hour. Then, the first store in Manhattan was opened with the help of the company where he worked in Hong Kong. He says he still has good relations with the company, where he learnt the tricks of the trade. Now, the major export destination of finished diamond products from Nepal is the US itself and these products are exported through R B Diamond Jewellers.</span></div>

	<span style="font-size:12px;">Under his group, more than 150 employees are working. Maharjan claims that he treats them as his family. â€œIt depends on them where the company will head for. I believe good people should prosper and succeed. I take care of their comfort and satisfaction,he shares his ways of motivating staff. He says problems are sorted out by discussing them. He has also given them assurance that they don't have to worry about their family's health and education. Maharjan also claims that he can't bear the sad faces of employees and cares that they don't get hurt.</span></div>

	<span style="font-size:12px;">He is planning to expand his business further to handicraft. Maharjan's aim has always been to promote the local knowledge and craftsmanship. In his free time, Maharjan concentrates on the designs and obtaining more knowledge in the stones. He is currently busy designing for the 2012 collections. He says he can ponder over a stone for hours. Apart from that, he also likes to read spiritual books and contemplate on spiritual aspects of life. Maharjan says he is content with what he has got and does not think much about himself and his luxurious wish list. Even during leisure he plans about his companies. He says his family has always been with him even in the business so he feels lucky that he does not have to fight over managing time.</span></div>

	<span style="font-size:12px;">Maharjan goes back to past, I used to feel that I don't have any vision. From my seniors, I learnt a lot about life and even doing business. I am here all because of such guiding hands and suggestions. He also has the hope that his second generation will take his business further. He expects their education, energy and his experiences to lead the business in future.</span></div>

	<span style="color:#000;"><span style="font-size: 12px;">Suresh Kumar Basnet stepped into the world of business with Rs 7,000 back in 1979. For Basnet, that was a big money managed all by himself to start his business. At that time, he saw demand for fancy clothes, watches, photography equipment, typewriters in the cities of the plain like Bhairahawa, Biratnagar and other places. I supplied those goods from the wholesalers in Kathmandu to these cities,he shares the story behind the inception of his business and career. Basnet gained experience and knowledge about his business with time from the people in his fraternity. He was not hesitant to shift to those goods and businesses that offered lucrative returns.</span></span></div>

	<span style="color:#000;"><span style="font-size: 12px;">Today, Basnet is the President of Nepal Chamber of Commerce (NCC), the guardian association of Nepali industries as well as small, medium and large companies. Basnet has been in NCC for 18 years now. Beginning with the working committee member, he has climbed the ladder to the apex position. Apart from the NCC President , he is a business person heading a group of companies with interests in export and production of pashmina, textile, silver jewellery, handicraft, copper goods, gold-plated statues, carpets and mineral water among others.</span></span></div>

	<span style="color:#000;"><span style="font-size: 12px;">Basnet was born in Kathmandu in 1955. His family was a working class family. It was around 1960 that his family bought a piece of land in Chitwan. Young Basnet shifted to Chitwan in 1962 where he completed his school education. We had an extended family and since we were financially weak we decided to shift to Chitwan, Basnet clarifies. He adds, There I learnt to be a hard-working man. I took to farming, did household chores and saw myself being shifted from one place to another with the passage of time. He emotionally says that in Chitwan he could realise what the hardship is and what the joys are the two realities of life.<br />

	<span style="color:#000;"><span style="font-size: 12px;">Basnet proudly claims that in his student days, he was quite a good student. Apart from his studies, he was fond of playing football, volleyball, badminton and chess. He was counted as one of the best players of the district those days.</span></span></div>

	<span style="color:#000;"><span style="font-size: 12px;">After graduating the School Leaving Certificate, he came back to Kathmandu with a dream of becoming a doctor. To pursue his dream, he joined Amrit Science Campus. However he was forced to take up physics as he could not study Biology in his high school in the absence of a biology teacher. Basnet largely relied on lectures as books were so rare and expensive those days. He recalls how he had to wait for months for a book in the college library. During his exam time, his fate took a different turn. He fainted while appearing for his exams. I had to leave my studies for around six months because of my illness. When I returned to college, my principal said that I have missed the course and asked me to start afresh next year,Basnet says. Meanwhile, his relatives advised him to change the subject and&nbsp;study commerce rather than waiting for the next session.</span></span></div>

He later completed his graduation from Shankardev Campus in business studies. While pursuing his business studies, Basnet somewhere felt that he should polish his entrepreneur skills and start doing something on his own.I established a firm for import-export, he shares his early days. Basnet picked up business fundamentals from his brother's friend who ran a company in Putalisadak. Basnet was around 26 when he started his business. A lot of hard work in the years that followed earned me vital business contacts that helped me in my export-import business, he reveals. At that time Basnet used to deal with the third-country goods but he claims he never dealt with cheap goods from Khasa, China. He opened an LC account to make his export-import business a formal one.&nbsp;Basnet usually dealt in items with seasonal demands like dry fruits and readymade garments during major festivals like Dashain and Tihar. Apart from that he also tried dealing with photography goods, motor parts, ball bearings and later on even in vehicles. He admits that often he had to bear losses for not having enough experience and expertise. He adds, I thought of getting into industries. I was into garments, carpet, and pashmina. In the pashmina business, I incurred losses as well as made profits over the years His markets for these products were Japan, Korea and USA. He shares, I gained experience by doing the things. I learnt the nitty-gritty of business and kept on reworking on my strategies. I always received support from my family. My better-half is just like my business partner.</span></span></div>

	<span style="color:#000;"><span style="font-size: 12px;">Basnet has passed three decades in the business world. He thinks profit and loss are defined by the nature of business, time and environment, politics, dedication to work and a touch of luck. Sometimes despite hard work, enough investment and favourable time, some circumstances and luck may lead to failure,Basnet opines. Apart from profit and loss, business has taught me honesty, duty to pay taxes to the state, and to have patience and take risk, he says.</span></span></div>

	<span style="color:#000;"><span style="font-size: 12px;">Today Basnet has stopped importing and focuses only on export. I am looking for ways to export our products to other countries. I am targeting the US market though recession has bruised&nbsp;its demands. However, I have not stopped exporting pashmina, silver jewellery, handicraft, copper goods, small statues and carpets, he expresses determination. Basnet is looking forward to investing in hydroelectricity too. I am also searching for feasible products that can be produced with local raw materials and which has the market prospect within Nepal like dairy products,he adds.</span></span></div>

	<span style="color:#000;"><span style="font-size: 12px;">When he began his business, Basnet managed the investment from his own sources but today he feels the presence of commercial banks has eased financing for any project. About managing capital, he says he revolves the fund between industries and companies as and when required.</span></span></div>

	<span style="color:#000;"><span style="font-size: 12px;">About managing his companies, Basnet says that management works are done by dedicated staff and managers of the respective departments are given full authority. He says he does not interfere in their work&nbsp;except for some monitoring and policy guidelines. However, Basnet thinks the investor also has to play the role of a manager.</span></span></div>

	<span style="color:#000;"><span style="font-size: 12px;">Basnet believes in having friendly relationship with employees. After working for a long time, some sense of brotherhood develops among the staff,he opines. He says employees salary is based on the ratio of profit made by the company but he ensures that people working in his companies are well taken care of in all respects including financial distress.We respect honesty, dedication and hard work of employees so that they can develop a sense of ownership towards their workplace.</span></span></div>

	<span style="color:#000;"><span style="font-size: 12px;">Basnet feels that he struggled throughout his life alone. His sons have always stayed away from home either for their studies or for their job. But we always have a cordial relationship with each other. I have given time to my family as much as possible. Previously, we used to spend quality time together at least once a month and every winter we used to visit some places within Nepal, he revealed the way he takes out time for his family. He thinks giving time to family means giving time to self also.</span></span></div>

At the end of the day, experience that he gathered maters to him much than the the status of profit and loss accounts. As any other human being, I also thought of making money but for that I never compromised with the business ethics, he proudly says. I never lied or cheated anybody and I always paid back the loans borrowed from the banks. That gives me immense satisfaction when I look back at my career.</span></span></div>

	<span style="color:#000;"><span style="font-size: 12px;">For the last 17 years, he has immersed himself into spiritual contemplation. He says, There is only one truth that is our soul and God. What we see with our eyes is nothing but illusion. Every morning, he meditates and ponders over spirituality for two hours. Basnet claims that NCC is also a kind of social organisation that has spent 58 years for the welfare of small, big and medium industries without any greed. He is also involved with a religious institution. I participate in some spiritual activities as religion is an integral part of our culture. My aim is to interact with the soul. I think our physical body is just like a mirage in the desert or the rope seen as a snake in dim light, he becomes saintly. </span></span></div>

	<span style="color:#000;"><span style="font-size: 12px;">In his free time, Basnet likes to visit Chitwan and indulges in prayer sessions. I know that exercise is needed to keep myself healthy but I have not been successful to manage time for it. But I do light exercises related to breathing and limbs every day for around half an hour, he revealed. I have some health problems but due to my spiritual inclination, they have not caused many problems to me, he claimed. Apart from that, he likes reading spiritual books, economic news and articles, occasionally watch family and social movies and TV channels like Discovery, National Geographic that air new and interesting things. He admits that he spends more time in spiritual contemplation. He feels his body has grown too old to indulge in any sports now.</span></span></div>

He does not dream of visiting new places, go swimming or golfing. He plans to immerse in his quest for spirituality. My philosophy is that being a human being, we are meant to find out who we are. So, I will also try to internalise the self, he declares.</span></span></span></div>

	<span style="font-size: 12px;">B</span><span style="font-size: 9.5pt;">orn into Rana aristocracy, Umang SJB Rana, the CEO of Westar Properties did not have life served on a platter for him. Not that his family couldn't afford so, it was because his parents wanted to instil earthly values in him right since his childhood. Rana expresses his gratitude for the same, I am what I am today largely because of my parents and the values they taught me.</span></div>

	<span style="font-size: 9.5pt;">The first child of Former Deputy Inspector General of Nepal Police Rupal SJB Rana and Montessori Teacher Usha Rana, he went to Dipendra Police School (which is now Nepal Police School), Sanga. Rana considers himself blessed to have travelled the length and breadth of Nepal, Being a policeman, my father relocated frequently to different parts of Nepal. I visited no less than 13 zones myself during my school vacations.&nbsp;</span></div>

	<span style="font-size: 9.5pt;">His father wanted at least one of his two sons to join the defence forces but young Umang had different ideas in mind. After completing his A-Level from Nagarjuna Academy and ISc from St Xavier's College, Rana left for Russia to study Civil Engineering. But he left the study midway and returned home two years later. I just couldn't complete it. I fell home sick, he admits in a near apologetic tone. Back in Nepal, he began pursuing Bachelor of Business Studies degree with specialisation in Human Resource. While still in college, Rana landed his first paid job a month long stint with Surya Tobacco Company (now Surya Nepal) for its product introduction. I was on the streets promoting the new product to the passers-by and asking them to try it. Each day, they will send me to a new location, he reminisces. </span></div>

<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 14.15pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;">
	<span style="font-size: 9.5pt;">An introvert since early childhood, Rana had quite a few female acquaintances but never a serious relationship. He is happily married for seven years now and has a two-year-old son. You ask him about his school friends and he goes, Most of my friends from school are settled abroad. But I do come across the ones that are still here.Rana's wife Aashmi who owns Himali Pashmina Udyog was instrumental in goading him to turn a businessman. He says, I am lucky to have her as my life partner. She inspired me to take up business for a profession.</span></div>

	<span style="font-size: 9.5pt;">Venturing into business ended his career as a DHL executive. Rana had started out at DHL as an Assistant Operations Coordinator in 1999 and worked up the ladder to become its Country Operations Manager before he left in 2007. â€œI must say it was a rewarding career, he admits. Having travelled the entire South East Asia for his work, he had little left to achieve unless he wanted to take up a position with the company abroad. This is another factor that triggered his retirement from DHL as he did not want to move out of Nepal. After weighing several options, Rana finally decided to plunge into construction as, Apartment business was much in demand around three years ago which led to my decision to enter this line of business.One thing led to another and he entered into a technical collaboration with Westar Properties, Dubai. </span></div>

	<span style="font-size: 9.5pt;">Rana asserts that you can call a project a success only when it gets completed. It is precisely when commitment gets delivered and a dream turns into reality. He gets a bit emotional talking about his current project Westar Residency, a Vaastu compliant high-rise apartment building at Balkumari, Lalitpur. This is my baby. I have been involved with the project from scratch and it's immensely satisfying to see it taking shape,he says. A planner, by his own admission, he recommends infrastructure as a prime importance and wants the government to ensure infrastructure development for the overall development of the country.&nbsp;</span></div>

	<span style="font-size: 9.5pt;">He believes he was born with a golden heart, I go out of my way to help people. I guess it comes naturally to me.He is a religious person and prays for self-satisfaction. He draws inspiration from Bhagavad Gita your good actions automatically come back to you, sooner or later. Living in a joint family, he is a self-confessed homely person. He says that living in a joint family comes with a lot of advantages as well as responsibilities. On week days, it's a strict home-to-office and vice versa. He loves to catch up on movies though, with his wife and parents. He says, I am glad that there are a few good movie theatres now that we can go to.</span></div>

	<span style="font-size: 9.5pt;">Not a party animal, he normally attends social occasions only. Late nights are a complete no-no, I don't have this urge like a lot of other people to attend the so-called happening events in town.You will usually find Rana comfortably attired. He believes in dressing for the occasion. Clad in a suit while showing around his sample flats, he can be caught wearing shorts and T-shirts in summer. At other times, he loves to wear daura-suruwal for&nbsp; family functions. </span></div>

	 </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size: 9.5pt; line-height: 115%;">He says it's just the right time for him to work hard, I am giving it all I have, for the completion of Westar Residency by its projected deadline 4th Qtr of 2012. Once the mission is accomplished, Rana wants to expand his business horizon and move into other sectors depending on the direction the nation's economy heads towards in the next 5-10 years. At present, the uncertainty level is very high so I am yet to identify my future business course, he explains. He has kept all options open and wants to enter businesses that have values. A firm believer in the adage, œlearning never stops, success is not only about creating wealth for him. Letting go of bachelorhood and becoming a father later transformed him as a person, he says. My marriage and the birth of my son has made me become more responsible socially and had me planning for the future, he reveals. Having led quite a privileged life, Rana doesn't have any major regrets and is content with everything god has to offer. </span></div>

However, with time, Golyan went on diversifying.&nbsp; He is currently the Chairman of Golyan Group of Industries. While Reliance Spinning Mill (RSM) is the flagship company of the group, it also has institutions such as NMB Bank, Westar Properties, Atlanta Trading, City Properties, Dhanalaxmi Synthetics, Himali Pashmina Industry, Shivam Plastic Industries and Makalu Cashmere are among others. Golyan says, Our flagship company, RSM alone registers an annual turnover of three to four billion rupees.</span></span></span></p>

After appearing for his School Leaving Certificate (SLC) examinations, he started work at the Shah Industry, one of the units within his family business. I started my career when I was only 16-years-old and became a full-fledged business person by 22, he proudly states. The industry closed down after the establishment of the spinning mill. He remembers his early days at the industry, There were around 600 workers at that time. It was not a smooth ride all along. However, the learning experience there was great and has always helped me. <br />

I used to attend classes in the morning and look after the business mainly during the day, he reminisces. He completed his B com from Mahendra Morang Campus, Biratnagar and has been involved in business full time ever since. He did not find time to pursue further studies. Not that he had the inclination either. Once I was full-fledged into business, I lost interest in studies, he says nonchalantly.</span></span></span></p>

	<span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><span style="font-size: 12px;"><span aldine401="" color:="">Going to cinema was a favourite pastime those days. Golyan recalls that Biratnagar used to be a place where there were no restaurants and clubs. There were limited options for merry-making and hangouts. He chuckles, We used to go to Dharan just to watch movies.His journey as a businessman took a defining turn when his doctor advised him to relocate to a cooler place. He suffered from dry eyes disease. To escape from the scorching heat of Biratnagar, Kathmandu proved to be a cool haven for him. Moving to Kathmandu largely helped business, he reveals. It reaped benefits for him to move to the capital city as a series of activities took place since. First, the establishment of RSM happened. In the subsequent years, Golyan started expanding into other industries and businesses. And, as luck would have it, the businesses turned out to be successful ventures in due time. <br />

	<span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><span style="font-size: 12px;"><span aldine401="" color:="">Establishment of RSM was probably the most proud moment of my life, he happily says. Setting up an industry worth one billion rupees 15 years ago was a massive proposition. Today, Golyan personally has one billion rupees worth of shares in the industry along with his equal partner Shashikant Agrawal. Presently, the industry exports its products to Turkey, Bangladesh and India. Among these countries, India is the largest market with 80 per cent of the total exports ending up there. He says that the thread produced at RSM is supplied to almost all Nepali textile industries. He is particularly pleased that the market prospects have improved appreciably in the last four months. <br />

It has a management team of professionals which takes care of the day-to-day management while Golyan has continued to take interest in the company's future. He reveals, Among all my companies, RSM is very close to my heart as I was attached with the textile business for a very long time. His other unit Shivam Plastic Industry manufactures woven sacks while Dhanalaxmi Synthetics produces threads with melt spinning. Westar Properties, the housing company, has two projects under construction at the moment. The group also has its investment in the banking and insurance sectors. <br />

I moved my family business ahead step-by-step. There was no rush and I never expected any overnight miracles, he shares. He says that he credits his success to continuing his father's honest virtues in business and the faith on Goddess Durga. When it comes to human resource management, he believes that trust is the most important aspect. Therefore, he believes in trusting his employees and giving them responsibilities based on their respective capacities. Over 5000 employees work for his various companies. He believes in healthy discussions to mitigate problems. Golyan does not like yes men He reasons, I may be the Chairman but that does not make me perfect. So, everything that I say need not come into effect.He believes that it's not the individual who is important. The company or the institution is more important as the destinies of thousands of stakeholders are attached with it. He believes in enhancing the skills of his employees to develop a sense of ownership in them. <br />

In my belief, it is important to study a business meticulously before venturing into it, he suggests. Imitating successful businesses does not guarantee success, working with optimism and dedication does, he says. Golyan painfully recounts the time when he almost left his business on his eldest son's demise. I was shattered and lost all my hopes. I saw no reason to continue. But one of my colleagues reasoned that I don't have the right to leave the livelihood of thousands of workers in lurch,he says. <br />

	<span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><span style="font-size: 12px;"><span aldine401="" color:="">According to Golyan, the four pillars that matter in his life are business, personal life, social life and personal time. I try to balance these as much as possible. I keep myself completely free from all business matters at least one day in a week. That day is for my family, he declares. He also manages 10 to 15 days twice a year for travelling with his family and friends. New Zealand is one of his much loved destinations. He tries to apply this on his employees too. So, he has the provision of forced holidays for them. A holiday rejuvenates people and also helps us realise their importance during their absence, he explains. <br />

	<span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><span style="font-size: 12px;"><span aldine401="" color:="" letter-spacing:="">I love to sleep as much as possible. Sometimes I don't wake up until midday, he jokes. He fondly remembers the days when he used to play badminton and cricket, That was a long time ago. These days, I practice yoga to stay fit. A movie buff, he also enjoys listening to music. Moderately brand conscious, Golyan prefers quality over brand names. At 52, he is already a veteran of 30 years in business. You ask his future plans and he philosophises, I have not looked at day-to-day business for the last 10 years. But I don't intend to retire completely. He wants to begin philanthropy in his son Jayanta's name. He plans to adopt a remote village with a population of 800 to 1200 residents and sponsor their health and education. Instead of giving them money, I will help them become self reliant by providing them with different skills and probably buy their produce,he says. <br />

	<span style="color:#000;"><span style="font-size: 12px;"><span aldine401="" color:="" style="line-height: 115%;">If the pilot project attains success, Golyan plans to expand this model to other villages. I am beginning the project from this year. And I would dedicate time for it just as I do for my industries, he expresses. He added that though it is a difficult and thankless job, he wants to do so for his inner satisfaction. Golyan has no regrets in life except his inability to save his son. He treats his nephews as his own children and wants to see them become successful in life.&nbsp;</span><span style="line-height: 115%; font-family: Wingdings; letter-spacing: 0.05pt;"> <br />

	</span></span></span></p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span class="A4">V</span><span style="color: black;">isit cc’s home at Manbhawan, Lalitpur, and you are surely to receive a hearty welcome with warm cups of ‘special’ tea grown in his own Kanchanjunga Tea Estate. A well-known name in Nepal’s cooperatives sector, Baskota is buoyed up by the saying “Water the root, enjoy the fruit”. Recuperating from an accident he met with during a recent visit to London, Baskota feels life has given him another chance to serve the nation. A former State Minister for Home Affairs, Baskota, now 68, is no more into active politics. But he is actively involved in the management of various institutions such as Kanchanjangha Tea Estate and Research Center (the first Certified Organic Garden), Panchthar Multiple Campus, Naya Namuna Secondary School, Phidim, and Nepal Organic Foundation. “The work I have been doing for society is my way of doing politics,” he says.</span> <br />
	</span></p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="color: black;">Baskota’s inexhaustible zeal for creativity and active life does not let him feel ‘old’ though he is already in his late sixties. “Age should not have its face lifted, but it should rather teach the world to admire wrinkles as the etchings of experience and the firm line of character,” he shares cheerfully. He takes satisfaction in the fact that he is the founding chairman of National Cooperative Development Board (NCDB), National Cooperative Federation (NCF), and also the president of Himalayan Orthodox Tea Producers’ Association, and the Tea Development Alliance.</span> <br />
	</span></p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="color: black;">Baskota was brought up by his mother at his birthplace, a remote village in Panchthar district. He learnt to read and write through non-formal education in the village itself. “I was only 12 when my mother passed away. It was my brother who guided me and boosted my morale to tread the rocky roads lying ahead in my life,” Baskota reminisces.</span> <br />
	</span></p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="color: black;">Baskota spent his early young days rambling in the wilderness under the serene sky of his village. It was a time of complete freedom for him. Later, as time passed, something inside him urged him to get formal education. He then enrolled at Phidim High School in the district.</span> <br />
	</span></p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="color: black;">“Passing the SLC exam, also known as the Iron Gate, was a challenge. But I did it with ease,” he goes down memory lane. Hale and hearty Baskota takes a balanced diet, desists from eating meat items and meditates every day. He believes that it’s his positive attitude and ardent love for the motherland that make him feel he has miles to go in life. Baskota finds the slow growth of agriculture, purportedly the backbone of Nepal’s economy, distressing. He observes that most of the co-operatives in Nepal are related to agriculture and are thus the best friends of farmers. “It will take a long time to establish the cooperative sector as the real backbone of our economy, if the right action plans are not formulated immediately,” says Baskota.</span> <br />
	</span></p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="color: black;">Baskota joined politics at an early age. Back then in his village, Baskota was doing both teaching and learning simultaneously. Along with venturing into the spheres of politics and business, it was the love for his roots — the birth place - that motivated him to build a school there. At 21, he was included in the voters’ list and was also elected the Village Panchyat Chief. Baskota remembers an important event in life, which has left a deep impact somewhere on his mind. “While pursuing my Bachelor’s Degree, I got rusticated for three years because of my political beliefs. As a result, I had to discontinue my studies,” he flips back an important page of his life. His political path was shaped after he joined the Nepal Student Union (NSU), the student wing of the Nepali Congress. The topsy-turvy ride of his life took an unprecedented turn when he dedicated himself to the Cooperative Movement in the country.</span> <br />
	</span></p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="color: black;">“For me, politics is to make good policies and to work for the welfare of society,” he says. It was in 1996 that he got the post of State Minster for Home Affairs. According to Baskota, it was the seminal role he had played in the drafting of the Cooperatives Act and the acknowledgement of the same by the then Prime Minister Girija Prasad Koirala that landed him the important government position. Late Koirala always encouraged and motivated him to continue his good work, Baskota still remembers.</span> <br />
	</span></p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="color: black;">According to Baskota, the same act governs the cooperative sector even today. “I don’t call the present chaotic political situation a practice of true and good politics,” he admits with a deep disappointment. Baskota’s creativity in work, led him to develop Kanchanjunga Tea Estate (KTE) in 1982. He is proud to claim that the flourishing tea business in the east today was his initiative. Since its establishment, KTE has given jobs to more than 500 local farmer families. Baskota has dedicated 17 long years of his life to the National Cooperative Society (NCS) formed in 1993. He is still actively working as a Past President of NCS. He also founded Nepal Maharshi Vedic Foundation, recently.</span> <br />
	</span></p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="color: black;">Baskota believes that a person’s age is no barrier to work as long as s/he is healthy – mentally as well as physically. Updated with the latest management strategies, he borrows Mahesh Yogi’s words, “For an effective result, we should monitor for four hours and work for two.” He believes that one should be clear about his vision to reach the desired goal. According to Baskota, to start a new business, a manager should be loyal to his duties and employees need to abide by the rules and accomplish given responsibilities on time. “If both the manager and the employee work in equilibrium a good management is definitely possible”, Baskota shares.</span> <br />
	</span></p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="color: black;">Given the nation’s recent chaotic situation, he thinks, every citizen should have peace of mind first. Baskota says that, it is the stereotypical teaching methodology in our schools that makes the curriculum and learning experience boring. His recent trip to London made him realize that, all the learnt knowledge will bear no fruit without a practical education. “On the one hand, we lack enough skilled human resource, and on the other, our talented youth are brain drained,” he complains. Baskota believes that practical education should be given to all citizens. For him resolution is a must to accomplish every duty.</span> <br />
	</span></p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="color: black;">As a very sane piece of advice for the youths, Baskota says; “It’s the youth who carry the thoughts, vision and leadership needed for change. They should hence set their aims in lives at an early age and prepare for every rocky road ahead”. The new generation can learn the importance of patriotism and simplicity from him. Patriot at heart, Baskota wishes to see the nation prosper; and maintains that it is achievable through the development of agriculture sector. “A number of young Nepali talents are abroad at present. If we can bring them back to the country and persuade them to contribute in the field, it will be more fruitful for our economy,” Baskota believes. He also urges the youngsters to start meditating while still young.</span> <br />
	</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="line-height: 115%; color: black;">“I use the lessons from my experience and strongly believe that hard work and sacrifice is a must to climb up every rung of success,” Baskota says. Keeping intact with the zeal while still aging, he hates to waste time idle and instead likes to go through books and to meditate. He says his work, which includes occasional field visits to his various offices, keeps him busy. He loves travelling and has already been to many parts of the country. People close to him call him the ‘Father of Nepal Cooperative Movement’ and it gives him a warm satisfaction.</span></span></p>

	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span myriad="" style="line-height: 115%; font-family: ">Khem Raj Panta’s life took an unexpected turn after he came to Kathmandu in 1990. From his first business exposure with UPS and entering SkyNet in 1992 to starting his own business in 1997, he has come a long way. Today, there is apparently nothing that he is more passionate about and more committed to than business.</span></span></p>
<p class="Default" style="text-align:justify;line-height:10.05pt">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span class="A15">L</span><span style="color: rgb(33, 29, 30);">ooking at him stand tall with responsibilities of a host of companies on his shoulders, it is hard to imagine that he had no plans of becoming a businessman when he was growing up. Executive Chairman of Nepal Skin Hospital Pvt Ltd and Country Manager at SkyNet Worldwide Express, Khem Raj Panta has also held important designations in companies including Qantas Freight, DTDC Worldwide Express and Nepal FM 91.8. “It was accidental”, he bluntly answers to how he turned a businessman. Born in the hills of Gorkha and raised in the plains of Biratnagar, as a young boy, he aspired to hold a government position. The Pantas were not businessmen; business had never run in the family. <br />
	</span></span></p>
<p class="Default" style="text-align:justify;line-height:10.05pt">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="color: rgb(33, 29, 30);">Going down the memory lane, he recalls that his father always wanted him to take up science, particularly either medicine or engineering. However, his life took an unexpected turn after he came to Kathmandu in 1990. He got his first business exposure when he worked with UPS, a global company, for six months. He entered SkyNet in 1992 having cleared an interview and in five years’ time, he became the first person of the company. And then, his long journey of leadership in the field of business began in 1997. Today, there is apparently nothing that he is more passionate about and more committed to than business. <br />
	</span></span></p>
<p class="Pa10" style="text-align:justify;text-indent:14.0pt">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="color: rgb(33, 29, 30);">It seems distressing, having to handle so many responsibilities at once. Panta admits that although it is a tough job, he goes about accomplishing his work with the help of his team and the system behind him. He believes that team building, system building and channeling are crucial aspects of business and management. Although there are no hard and fast rules to his management philosophy, he does live by three words like a mantra “honesty, hard work and commitment”. While he is thankful towards J N Shetty, MD at SkyNet Mumbai, for guiding him, Panta had no godfather to look up to when he entered business. Whatever he has earned and achieved till now, it is due to his hard work and ability. <br />
	</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="color: rgb(33, 29, 30);">He is very committed to his work; and works from 7 am to 10 pm on a normal day. His work demands a lot of travelling across the world and in long flights. When he is travelling, his flight hours are also his prep hours; he uses the time to do his homework for the visiting purpose. One very important characteristic of his is that he worships time and values every minute of the day. Even when he is abroad, he doesn’t </span><span style="color: rgb(33, 29, 30);">spend a day extra than demanded by his work unless he is on a planned vacation. Panta is strictly against wasting time.</span> <br />
	</span></p>
<p class="Pa10" style="text-align:justify">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="color: rgb(33, 29, 30);">For this businessman, his friends and family have always been a strength factor. When asked about important people in his professional and personal life he instantly remembers two other people besides his wife and son: brother-in-law Kiran Acharya and partner Bijay Rijal. Panta’s wife above all is like a backbone to him. Ever understanding and ever loving, she helps him keep calm and be patient in affliction. For 20 longs years, she has always stood by him. “She is a wonderful woman, a wife, a friend and most importantly an advisor to me,” he says. Besides wife Nirmala’s significance in his life, he has another advisor in the family, his 18-year-old son Aashish. Panta believes in the importance of quality education and has always sent his son to the best of schools. Currently, Aashish is pursuing his BBA at GD Goenka World School. <br />
	</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="color: rgb(33, 29, 30);">&nbsp;He listens to his son because for him it is important to keep up with the new generation. With father’s wisdom and son’s freshness, the Pantas share a relationship that stands on friendship within and beyond the family. Panta has begun grooming his son for the business world already. They attend business meetings together whenever his son is free. Some time ago, his son even looked after one of his business ventures for six whole months. Panta sees a potential businessman in his son. He confesses that it is difficult to balance time between family and work, and compromises have to be made sometimes. However, whenever he is with his family he gives his 100 per cent to them, “Saturday is an absolute family day for me” he justifies his claim. Once in a year, Panta and his family also fly to a holiday destination.</span> <br />
	</span></p>
<p class="Pa10" style="text-align:justify">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="color: rgb(33, 29, 30);">Despite the hectic schedule and a number of responsibilities attached to his designations, Panta leads a modern healthy life. He is an Osho follower; and hence he meditates for 30 minutes every day. He also runs and sometimes swims at the club. He is fit and healthy and hence plans to work hard in the coming decade while he still has the oomph of business in his soul. “I don’t want to die working like most Nepalis do”, he says. <br />
	</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="line-height: 115%; color: rgb(33, 29, 30);">After the age of 55, he plans to hand over his responsibilities to a new generation of leaders and retire willingly. Panta has neatly outlined his retirement plan already and shares it enthusiastically. He plans to divide a year into four perfect halves, each for a destination. He plans to spend three months each in Kathmandu, Gorkha and Delhi where his beloved friends are and the remaining three months travelling around the world with his wife.<br />
	</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="line-height: 115%; color: rgb(33, 29, 30);">There were two major turning points in his life. The first one was his association with SkyNet, where he understood what his purpose in life was and the second one was the birth of his son. His son’s birth was like a lucky charm and opened all the doors of opportunities for him one by one. However, time is god to Panta and he credits his respect for time as the main reason for where he stands today. <br />
	</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="line-height: 115%; color: rgb(33, 29, 30);">He has a few simple but powerful messages for the entire new and emerging generation of entrepreneurs - young entrepreneurs should not be involved in politics and young talents should not migrate abroad because if there is one place that has enormous potential for business it has to be Nepal. Finally, Panta says, “I know, the new generation is in a hurry to succeed and it is only natural for them to want so. But, you should understand that there are no shortcuts to success. You have to be patient.”</span></span></p>

&quot;Times New Roman&quot;;mso-bidi-theme-font:minor-bidi;color:#221E1F">eorge Bernard Shaw once said “Some men see things as they are and say why - I dream things that never were and say why not.” Similar has been the attitude of this ambitious businesswoman Seema Golchha throughout. Carving out a niche for herself, she has been making her presence felt in the Nepali business sector. In the male dominated Nepali society, when Golchha decided to join her family business, it was something unusual. Never before had any woman from the Golchha family forayed into business. She confessed that her father-in-law was the one to motivate her to join the business. Ever since she took a bold step toward business, there has been no looking back. </span></p>
<p class="Pa8" style="text-indent:14.0pt">
	<span style="font-size:10.0pt;
color:#221E1F">&nbsp;Exploring the lesser known, and rather personal side to Golchha, she reveals to you, her journey from a young, liberal and warm hearted Indian girl to being the daughter-in-law of one of the most reputed business house in Nepal and finally to establishing herself a successful entrepreneur.</span></p>
<p class="Pa8" style="text-indent:14.0pt">
	&nbsp;<span style="font-size:10.0pt;
color:#221E1F">“I always had a smile on my face, she said, recalling her childhood days. Brought up in Lucknow and Dehradun, Golchha had a happy childhood. She completed her schooling from Dehradun and pursued her higher studies in Delhi University. She was always a vivacious and an independent girl. For her, the inspiration to lead an independent life always came from her working mother. Unlike ordinary women thirty years ago, she lived independently in a flat and worked for advertising agencies. <br />
	<br />
	<img alt="" border="1" height="424" hspace="10" src="http://newbusinessage.com/ckfinder/userfiles/Images/personaliity_3.jpg" vspace="10" width="366" /><br />
	</span></p>
<p class="Pa8" style="text-indent:14.0pt">
	<span style="font-size:10.0pt;
color:#221E1F">However, things changed completely for her when she got married to Shekhar Golchha who belonged to a completely different cultural background. “I was leading a very modern and liberal lifestyle before marriage and hence getting married to a conservative family brought a huge cross-cultural transition in my life,” expressed Golchha. Although it took her some time, she eventually adapted to and adjusted with the new environment that she was placed in back then.</span></p>
<p class="Pa8">
	&nbsp;<span style="font-size:10.0pt;color:#221E1F">Golchha, who has perfectly balanced her personal and professional life, believes that time management is the key to balance in life. Wife of a businessman and a mother of two, she is also a perfectionist. Although it is not possible to score 10 / 10, she, as a mother, a wife, and an entrepreneur, is doing justice to every role with sheer conviction. . Enjoying every moment of the day, she still tries to work out details in whatever she engages. “We should always give our cent percent in whatever we do,” she said. </span></p>
<p class="Pa8">
	<span style="font-size:10.0pt;color:#221E1F">Entering business was intentional for her, as she always had an interest in it. “I am happy being involved in business as it recharges and completes my life in a way,” she said when asked about her professional life. She started her business with a women’s showroom in Durbar Marg. Since then there has been no looking back for her. <br />

<p class="Pa8" style="text-indent:14.0pt">
	&nbsp;<span style="font-size:10.0pt;
color:#221E1F">“Success is important, but it is not everything,” said Golchha. She believes that every step taken towards achieving your goal counts. It doesn’t matter if one succeeds or not, it is important that one should work hard to meet own expectations and goals. When she first joined the family business, a showroom like Samsung Plaza was an innovative idea. It was very rare in Nepal to find such a range of electronics under one roof. Today, 10 years later, she is expanding the exclusive outlet of Samsung electrical appliances across the country. Despite many obstructions like load shedding and strikes, she is also looking to further expand her business by launching two more Samsung Plazas, a Timex Watch outlet and a Bajaj Appliances outlet. She strongly believes that if you have faith in yourself, nothing can stop you and hence she is </span><span style="font-size:10.0pt;mso-bidi-font-family:&quot;Myriad Pro&quot;;color:#221E1F">moving ever onward. </span></p>

	&nbsp;<span style="font-size:10.0pt;
mso-bidi-font-family:&quot;Myriad Pro&quot;;color:#221E1F">She has always held the view that women should be empowered. Hence, most of her employees are young, motivated girls. In her line of business, it is important to understand customers’ temperament because at the end of the day, customers’ satisfaction is what matters most. So, when she is recruiting her employees, academic qualification is not all that she looks for, she also observes their personality. When asked about her management strategy, she shared that it is important to provide employees with space for innovation in order to improve and upgrade the company’s status. It is also important to provide enough opportunity for communication between management and staff. She also makes sure to set an example of dedication, in order to motivate her employees. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">
	&nbsp;<span style="font-size:10.0pt;line-height:115%;mso-bidi-font-family:
&quot;Myriad Pro&quot;;color:#221E1F">She is surely dedicated to her work but a trekking enthusiast, Golchha doesn’t forget to take a break every now and then. For her, friends and family are an integral part of her life and she lets her hair down while having fun with them.

color:#211D1E">oung Min Bahadur Gurung had strong faith in making history one day. His parents too had a dream that he will be a great personality of the country in due course of time. It was the major reason behind his parents’ decision to send him to a good school although his was a big 10-member family. Born after five sisters, he was raised as a pampered son in the family and provided with facilities that a son usually gets in the Nepali society. Two younger brothers were born after him. During his early schooling, Gurung was touched by the story about Madam Curie inventing bean size radium after melting 17 tons of stone. Megnath Lamsal, his teacher at high school, left a deep impression on him. The teacher’s lessons motivated him to do well in life and reach greatness one day. “I was very fond of Lamsal Sir and liked his classes much. I developed a strong belief in myself and was committed to work hard for success,” he recalls.</span> <br />

	<span style="font-size:10.0pt;mso-bidi-font-family:&quot;Myriad Pro&quot;;color:#211D1E">Born in Dube, a village in Khotang district, Gurung had schooling up to SLC at different schools nearby. Unlike other young boys of his time, he was very energetic and hardworking. He enjoyed his schooldays even though he had to walk two hours daily to go to the school. Despite being a good student, Gurung failed in the SLC exams. It came as a shock for all the teachers, students and his own family who considered him as a bright student. He didn’t take it as a setback though and tried his best to overcome the failure by studying harder. </span></p>

He elaborates, “Because I failed my SLC exams, I did not pursue science stream later. Had I cleared SLC in my first attempt with flying colors, I would have other ideas about my future course of life and ultimately miss this fantastic business opportunity that I have today. </span></p>

mso-bidi-font-family:&quot;Myriad Pro&quot;;color:#211D1E">Gurung started helping his family in farming after his intermediate degree. In Bhadra 2031 BS, he started planting rice, harvesting maize and other jobs required by the farming demands. During this period, he fell terribly sick and survived the ordeal somehow. Gurung’s father decided that enough was enough. Until now, he always insisted to keep his dearest son close to him but following the incident, he advised him to go to Kathmandu and study further.</span> </p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:10.0pt;mso-bidi-font-family:&quot;Myriad Pro&quot;;color:#211D1E">Gurung had his first job as a record keeper who recorded attendance of daily wage laborers. He shares, “I was given Rs 400 by my father when I left for Kathmandu so I had to find a job anyhow to sustain.” He was soon hired in Nepal Bank Limited and was given a position in Nepalgunj. However, after two years, he managed to find a posting to Kathmandu and started pursuing a master’s degree shortly afterwards. He would attend college in the morning and work at the bank as his full time job.</span> </p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:10.0pt;mso-bidi-font-family:&quot;Myriad Pro&quot;;color:#211D1E">A permanent job at the bank encouraged him to settle down in life. He married Sabitri Gurung, a girl from his own village who was pursuing her intermediate degree in Kathmandu. Meanwhile, he also started selling goods which built the foundation of his retail business. Gurung later turned his part time retail business as a full time profession when he realized the potential that the business offered. He established Bhatbhateni Cold Store in 2041 and expanded his retail shop on the second floor of the store in due course of time.</span></p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:10.0pt;mso-bidi-font-family:&quot;Myriad Pro&quot;;color:#211D1E">As fate would have it, his store caught fire in 2047 BS and caused him a financial loss of around a million rupees. Gurung says the fire at Bhatbhateni was a turning point for him and he learnt a lesson the hard way to take his business more seriously. Three years later, he established Bhatbhateni Departmental Store. “I am a different type of person who believes in growing plants on rock. It is not possible to stop at a failure when you have a great vision,” he says.</span> </p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:10.0pt;
mso-bidi-font-family:&quot;Myriad Pro&quot;;color:#211D1E">Even today, despite all the success, Gurung consults his wife as before while making business strategies. He remembers the time when he had to invest the same gold in his business that he had gifted to his wife earlier. She joined his business within a few days of delivering their first child Kamana. “It was quite amazing that she could join the store within a short period after the delivery of our first child,” he reminisces. He rues the fact that he finds himself unable to give enough time to his family due to a busy schedule. It is hard to find him relaxing much but when he does so, he listening to music from stalwarts such as Narayan Gopal, Bachchu Kailash and Ani Choying Dolma.</span> </p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:10.0pt;mso-bidi-font-family:&quot;Myriad Pro&quot;;color:#211D1E">Starting his grocery store with an investment of Rs 35,000 in a small single shutter, his business today is worth billions of rupees with five huge outlets in the Kathmandu valley and one in Pokhara. It was dream come true for him when the construction of his four huge supermarkets was completed last year. The construction of supermarkets in Kathmandu was overseen by his wife, son and daughter while he was busy taking care of the construction of the Pokhara outlet. As many as 50 people from his family circle are involved in the business, informs Gurung.</span> </p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:10.0pt;mso-bidi-font-family:&quot;Myriad Pro&quot;;color:#211D1E">He says that support from the people and the facilities provided at the Bhatbhateni outlets have made it a successful supermarket chain. His stores registered overwhelming business during their respective openings. The Bhatbhateni outlet at Pokhara was opened not too long ago and the story there was no different either with thousands of people swarming the store for several days. “We had to cease either the upstairs or downstairs lifts every hour to manage the heavy crowd. There were people coming from Gorkha, Butwal and Lamjung as well,” he recounts.</span> </p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:10.0pt;mso-bidi-font-family:&quot;Myriad Pro&quot;;color:#211D1E">Gurung believes that failures pave paths towards new directions and trigger innovations. Bhatbhateni Supermarket employs 22,000 people currently and Gurung hopes that the group will have 50,000 employees in its ranks in 15 years time.</span> </p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:10.0pt;
mso-bidi-font-family:&quot;Myriad Pro&quot;;color:#211D1E">As part of its corporate social responsibility, the group helped construct an emergency ward having 72 beds at Tribhuvan University Teaching Hospital with a spending of Rs 100 million. Gurung has named the ward after his parents whom he holds in very high esteem. He has also been providing yearly scholarships to two MBBS students, especially the ones who originate from remote villages. “We will all die one day so it is important that we set apart a certain percentage of our earnings for social causes,” he reasons. Gurung thinks it is rather unfortunate that not many people spare a thought for the less privileged.</span> </p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:10.0pt;
mso-bidi-font-family:&quot;Myriad Pro&quot;;color:#211D1E">He plans to spend his retired life as a social worker. “I still believe in doing jobs which others haven’t tried before and hope to work for the well being of the society,” he says. He recommends people to believe in themselves to make it successful in life and be a part of the history.</span> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">
	<span style="font-size:10.0pt;line-height:115%;mso-bidi-font-family:
&quot;Myriad Pro&quot;;color:#211D1E">Gurung dreams of making Bhatbhateni a multinational company and an international shopping hub as well as plans to spread his business all around the world. His passion of expanding Bhatbhateni’s business reflects strongly in his statement, “This has become a part of my body; it pains me if something goes wrong in the company.”<br />

	<br />
	An admirer of Steve Jobs, Binay Bohra believes in living by creativity. He feels proud to be able to give something back to the society through his contribution to the IT sector. A computer engineer by profession, Binay likes to explore the tremendous potential of the Internet. Steve Jobs once said, “Creativity is just connecting things. When you ask creative people how they did something they feel a little guilty because they did not really do it, they just saw something. It just seemed obvious to them after a while.” <br />
	<br />
	Binay Bohra, Managing Director of Vianet Communications Pvt Ltd, one of the leading Internet service providers (ISP) of Nepal finds a connection to the creative forces of cosmos. He sees new creations going on constantly in the universe. He has understood the life’s purpose – to create something new in life. He says, “We are part of the universe where creative energy is in abundance. I have always had a healthy feeling that I must create on my own and do something new.” Looking at his ISP business, he has created a link for people to connect to the vast internet that quenches people’s thirst for information, knowledge and entertainment. Moreover, he has also created employment opportunities for people in his organisation through the Internet services he offers. <br />
	<br />
	Having completed his higher studies in India from Bangalore University in 1995 in Computer Engineering, he returned to Kathmandu and joined Mercantile Communications. His parents had migrated from Darchula, a district in far western Nepal. Bohra says his father, who made a big contribution in the telecommunication sector of Nepal himself, had also inspired him to become a computer engineer. <br />
	<br />
	While working for three years at Mercantile, he developed the confidence to do something on his own. The Internet boom was gradually catching up in Nepal, however, there were few ISPs to cater to the growing demand of the Internet. The knowledge Bohra gained in the classroom was juxtaposed with the experience collected via his work. Vianet Communications was created in 1999 after he joined his hands with his likeminded friends. Ever since the company was conceived, Bohra and the company have been constantly moving towards the vision that was envisaged in the beginning. <br />
	<br />
	Vianet was one of the pioneers to offer dial-up Internet in the Kathmandu valley. The company now offers the Internet through the latest technology such as fibre optics to those who want to get connected to high speed Internet. Likewise, it offered cheap and reliable Internet at a time when slow and costly dial-up and NTC’s leased lines were the only options, claims Bohra. He says his company was also the pioneer in offering the Internet over Wi-Fi in Nepal. Today, he says, his company has the robust network to reach offices and homes everywhere. <br />
	<br />
	Whenever Bohra was asked in his childhood what he wanted to be, he used to say that he aspired to become a scientist. “Though I did not grow up to become a scientist, I am still into a creative field,” he says. He completed his schooling and college from St Xavier’s in Kathmandu. He says he possessed leadership quality since his childhood. Bohra used to be the captain of the football and athletic teams during his school days. “I have always believed in having a leadership role so I was interested in doing something on my own. I had always dreamt that I would be an entrepreneur with specialisation in a certain sector,” he recalls. <br />
	<br />
	Bohra has received a lot of support from his family too. Though his spouse runs a firm of her own, she also helps him in his work. “We have our separate businesses and are entrepreneurs in our own right. We are happy that we are into a creative sector that creates jobs and is an interesting world, similar to the creation going on in the universe,” he says. <br />
	<br />
	Bohra does not exert pressure on his offspring to follow a specific path. He would like to see his son grow into a balanced person. “It is not necessary that he should become a doctor or an engineer. I will support him in whatever he wants to become according to his personal interest. He should have that confidence to do what he wants to do,” he says. <br />
	<br />
	Bohra who is also the President of Internet Service Providers’ Association of Nepal (ISPAN) feels that this is the age of the Internet as our lives revolve around it. According to him, it is the source of educational materials, entertainment and various activities like listening to songs, radio, reading newspapers and magazines, watching TV, shopping, e-payments etc. Therefore, he has further plans on offering the Internet with ease to his customers. “Our aim is to make this service reliable and provide high speed network facilities. We are working on it and will come up with various applications and uses for customers,” he shares. He says that the competition is too tough and ISPs have to compete with the telecom operators too as they are also offering high speed Internet. <br />
	<br />
	He thinks that the current political environment is not favourable for doing business. Nevertheless, he feels nobody should stop working because of the external factors. “It has discouraged those who want to do something on their own. But, we have to go on working at our end,” he says. Being from an IT sector he admires Steve Jobs, co-founder of Apple Inc. Bohra likes his way of working – hearing to his inner soul without caring what others say rather than following somebody else. He considers Jobs as a successful and visionary leader. Similarly, he also admires Mahatma Gandhi as a fighter who overcame challenges. <br />
	<br />
	Bohra believes that management philosophy varies from personto- person and also the nature of projects. He believes that there is no shortcut to success and taking up leadership position requires dedication, understanding and intense involvement in the project. “One must work extremely hard because the world has become so competitive. It’s good to be smart, wealthy and lucky but the most important one is the self-belief and confidence,” he opines. He believes mistakes made could be corrected midway. “Mistakes are our learning opportunities but the focus should always be on the target,” he adds. For Bohra, success is multifaceted. He believes that success cannot be measured with the rise and fall in career only. “A person may have a highly successful business but what if his family life is wrecked? Likewise, a person may work hard and earn a lot of money. But it is of no use if his health does not favour him. So, a balanced life is a must and most importantly, you must do something that satisfies your heart,” he explains. <br />
	<br />
	Bohra thinks that the human resource is the most valuable asset for any organisation. “Leaders cannot perform alone. If a team works as a single entity with the dedication on a single mission without refining human resources and rightly managing and understanding the value of people, it is impossible to achieve success,” he says. In his company, Bohra ensures that he hires better people every time. He thinks that intellect should be the basis of recruitment and a team should not be formed based on recommendations alone. <br />
	<br />
	Bohra thinks that working within the country is the biggest contribution to the society. “We live in a society where we may have been doing some creative work and it might have benefited many. It is also possible that people are inspired and enjoying work because of us. So, working here with our own people is more important” he opines. Bohra wishes to diversify his area of operations and is looking forward to work in newer sectors apart from the IT industry. Similarly, he also wishes to take out more time from his routine work and do something more interesting in life. <br />

	<strong>By Gaurav Aryal <br />
	<br />
	</strong><br />
	Ritu Singh Vaidya, Managing Director at United Traders Syndicate Pvt Ltd (UTS), has enjoyed every role she has stepped into. When she walked on the ramp, she mastered it with her style. When she was on the stage, she cherished the music and touched the listeners’ heart. Now, she is handling the position of a leading business person very well. Model, former Miss India, singer and now a businessperson; Vaidya has perfected the responsibilities she thinks are brought to her by destiny and her dedication in the pursuit of dreams. <br />
	<br />
	<img alt="Ritu Singh Vaidya" border="1" height="362" hspace="5" src="http://newbusinessage.com/ckfinder/userfiles/Images/personality(3).jpg" vspace="5" width="300" /><br />
	<br />
	<br />
	Ritu Singh Vaidya always dreamed to set up her own business although she was at the pinnacle of her modelling career. With twists and turns of her career that were never disappointing for her, she has now climbed up the ladder towards a leading position in one of the leading business houses of Nepal, Vaidya’s Organisation of Industries and Trading House (VOITH). Her working style is ruled by discipline as she was raised in a family with partly business and partly army background. <br />
	<br />
	Vaidya recalls her childhood in Delhi as “nice, pleasant and loving”. She feels fortunate about having pleasurable childhood days. Her grandfathers were in the business sector and were running their family business in present day Pakistan. She says her grandfathers moved to Delhi when she was an eighth grader. She was educated in Delhi and after completing school, Vaidya pursued fashion designing for her higher studies. She is also a BA in Economics and Political Science from Delhi University. <br />
	<br />
	It was obvious for the beautiful and charming Vaidya to be offered a career in glamour and modelling industry. She believes destiny took her into the world of modelling. “I was in class XII when my friends and I participated in the May Queen contest. So, that was the beginning of it.” She was crowned the May Queen title. She actively began modelling after many offers started coming her way. Her journey on the ramp did not stop immediately though. She went to the Miss India contest and grabbed the title that many Indian women dream to achieve – Miss India – in 1991. After winning the title at home, her next target was to win international titles. Vaidya became the fifth runner up in Miss World, second runner up in Miss Asia World and first runner up in Miss India Universe. <br />
	<br />
	“I took it (modelling) on because it just came to me. It happens that things suddenly start working for you and I think they are the natural things to happen because they just come your way,” she says, “But I always had an entrepreneurial spirit in me. I always wanted to establish myself in some kind of business where I felt challenged. I am someone, who likes a routine, discipline and innovativeness.” Vaidya believes she was always inclined towards business. Even during her modelling days, she would dream of getting into some sort of business in the future. “I wasn’t somebody who was going into Bollywood” she says. <br />
	<br />
	Vaidya says she has never been a person who is devoted to only one thing. “When I got into the glamour world, I was also very focused on my studies and about what I was going to do next. Though I was very much enjoying it, I couldn’t see myself turning forty on the ramp,” she explains. <br />
	<br />
	Everything was organised and settled for young Vaidya even at the age of 20. She says she was almost leading a life what people start mostly at their middle ages. She was just 20 when she met businessman Suraj Vaidya in Kathmandu at a charity fashion show organised by him for Bal Mandir. The professional acquaintance grew into love and later to marriage within a matter of years. Vaidya recalls that the initial days of living in Nepal after her marriage was completely different from her earlier days. She says it was a total change in her life, family, career and friends. “The first year of marriage was difficult because I was not used to a lot of things. But my husband made it very easy for me as he was very easy and patient about me even when I went back to Delhi 15 times in 12 months,” she shares. <br />
	<br />
	Vaidya ventured into fashion designing in her initial days in Nepal and worked as a fashion designer for seven years. That was the time when she was also rearing her child. Vaidya stopped designing clothes and dived into her new found passion – singing. She released an album, ‘Sun Zara’ and appeared in her album’s music videos as well. However, she has abandoned her role as a singer as she thinks it consumes a lot of her time and takes her away from her family. “When I released my first album, I really thought I can manage singing simultaneously with my business commitments but later I realised it is not so. For Hindi singing you have to be in Mumbai and be accessible whenever somebody calls you. That was not something I was looking for and desired in my life. Singing for films and doing stage shows is not my cup of tea.” She started taking responsibilities in VOITH when Suraj Vaidya was busy travelling and spending time for larger business responsibilities. <br />
	<br />
	“He had a great ideology on which everybody was moving and that was a great success too. Once he was unwell and had to take rest for treatment. That was when I took up the work,” she says. At present, she is completely looking after UTS and its divisions that deal in Toyota and heavy equipments. Along with it, she occasionally looks after the spa she has set up a few years back. When it comes to working approach, she says, “My approach is very simple. I try to simplify things and believe in a totally centralised command. But jobs are designated to different people and they have a total free hand in what they do. But yes, it has to be totally accountable.” She encourages flow of new ideas from her employees but feels that the final central command has to be strong enough to prevent things going haywire. Vaidya thinks employees are most happy when you let them do the work, give them a good working environment, be ready to listen to their suggestions and at the same time reward them for what they do. Vaidya has a disciplined working style. “Because I am disciplined, a lot of my staff has to be disciplined. They can’t take anything lightly because they know when I say something that needs to be done. I am very focused on making sure that whatever needs to be done, should be done in the given frame of time,” she emphasises. <br />
	<br />
	<img alt="Ritu Singh Vaidya" border="1" height="460" hspace="5" src="http://newbusinessage.com/ckfinder/userfiles/Images/personality1(1).jpg" vspace="5" width="300" /><br />
	<br />
	Vaidya reveals that her organisation is planning to expand into newer sectors like hydropower, hospitality and education. She is trying to consolidate what is already with the organisation along with planning of new ventures. She says, “Hydropower should be there soon as it is already in the pipeline and we are seriously looking into hospitality. Hopefully, we will be coming with new ventures in the next two years if we don’t have external disturbing factors like endless bandhs and political crisis.” Vaidya believes that she has not earned enough money to spend on charities and philanthropic activities. “I believe in doing philanthropy with my own money. I won’t be convinced about it if I am going to throw somebody else’s money and call it a charity. If I can do well and manage to spare money from my earnings; that is the right kind of charity that I would want to do.” <br />
	<br />
	She thinks she is very compartmental and does not like to mix her personal and professional life together. So, she never takes her office to home. “My time is totally devoted to home when I am home. Similarly, when I am in the office, I give all the time to my office works,” Vaidya reveals. Evenings are for her son and husband while she reserves her morning time usually for exercising. A strong believer in destiny, Vaidya is very satisfied with what life has brought to her. She takes her life as it comes and is ready for wherever it leads to. Optimistic in nature, one shouldn’t be surprised to find her trying new things, ventures and passions in the days to come. Her well wishers shouldn’t be astonished to see her in a completely new avatar not too long in the future. <br />

	<br />
	<strong>PERSONAL SIDE <br />
	</strong><br />
	<br />
	<strong>Take on success:</strong> I am a very happy content person. Nevertheless, the day I do not want to do anything more, I would think that I am dead. From that point of view, there is a lot more to do. <br />
	<br />
	<br />
	<strong>Planning a holiday:</strong> I like things to be done perfectly and neatly. I make sure I do a lot of research on wherever I am going and know the places so that I won’t miss what I want to see and what we are going to do. I like my travel to be organised right from my ticketing and stay to every itinerary and the places where we are going. <br />
	<br />
	<br />
	<strong>Brand consciousness:</strong> If something is nice it does not need to be branded. I believe in being comfortable and wear what I think looks best on me. <br />
	<br />
	<br />
	<strong>Secret of beauty: </strong>Fitness is something I really believe in. You should be very fit because body is the vehicle that carries you. So you have to take care of it. <br />
	<br />
	<br />
	<strong>Spending leisure time:</strong> Reading and listening to music. I read more of philosophies and autobiographies. I love Indian classical music and mostly listen to Hindi music and instrumental and for English, I like jazz and more soulful songs. <br />
	<br />
	<br />
	<strong>Favourite pastimes: </strong>I love to sing and do gardening and am passionate about my house. Therefore, I love cleaning on my off days. <br />
	<br />
	<br />
	<strong>Better mother or a better boss: </strong>I try to justify every role - a good mother, good wife, good house keeper and a good business person. <br />
	<br />
	<br />
	<strong>Favourite Travel Destination: </strong>Paris among all because it is the most romantic and artistic city and also Venice. Turkey was also a very nice place where we went recently and Russia turned out to be a pleasant surprise. <br />
	<br />
	<br />
	<strong>Sporty indulgence: </strong>I used to be a badminton champion in my school. I adored playing volleyball and basketball but now I am more into gymming. <br />

As Director CSR and R&amp;D of Hotel de lâ Annapurna, which is doing reasonably well as a hospitality entity, she believes,Survival is not enough, we need to get better. This very go-getter attitude of hers has resulted in the hotel's massive renovation and upgradation endeavours of late. I am working hard and giving it all I have to ensure that my hotel lives up to its much revered tagline No. 1 Address in Kathmandu, she confides. Rana thinks it is best to take her chances nowbring back the glory of yesteryears and make a premium 5-star property out of the hotel that it once was, rather than wait endlessly hoping for perfect conditions to make investments.</span></p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Born to Late Kiranendu Malla and Late Kendra R L Malla, she lost her father when she was barely two-years-old. Rana credits her mother, widowed at the young age of 21, for single-handedly raising her younger brother and herself. She says, My mother's courage, hard work and the love she bestowed upon us, despite numerous challenges, have inspired me to respect and uphold family values.While admitting that she had a privileged upbringing which included the best schooling one could think of, Rana led a simple life with plenty of values and discipline her family instilled in her. In those days, rules were made by the parents and never questioned, she elucidates.</span></p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:12px;">An alumnus of St Mary's High School in Jawalakhel, she finished high school from Cambrian Hall, one of India's premier private schools located in Dehradun. Immediately afterwards, she got an opportunity to train with the ITC Welcome Group for five years in the early 1990s. And it was during her learn-onthe- job stint with the ITC when she came across Kapil SJB Rana, a dashing hotel heir who had just returned from England after completing his studies. I helped him get acquainted with Nepali customs as he had practically lived his entire life abroad and knew little about Nepal,she blushes reminiscing her early courtship days. As fate would have it, she was to marry him in due course of time. My family was happy about it and supported my decision wholeheartedly,she shares.</span></p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:12px;">A very ambitious person, by her own admission, Rana also has a soft corner which has led her to being a social entrepreneur. She is a firm believer in empowering women through entrepreneurship and an ardent supporter of fight against heart diseases. While she believes that success is absolutely important and intends to leave no stone unturned to achieve it, she also has the heart to think about people who are less fortunate and wants to give back to the society. Early into her professional career, she dabbled as a fashion entrepreneur with her boutique Image Fashion House at Durbarmarg.</span></p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:12px;">We were involved in organising the 1st Miss Nepal pageant and managed costumes and choreography part of the event,she tells excitedly. Being an emotional person since a young age, social work came naturally to Rana. She is associated with a number of organisations to help fulfill her social responsibilities. Her social undertakings include associations with Jayanti Memorial Trust (JMT), Women Entrepreneurs Association of Nepal (WEAN), SAARC Chamber Women Entrepreneurs Council (SCWEC), Association of St Maryâ's Alumnae Nepal (ASMAN),</span></p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Burn Violence Survivors Nepal (BVS-N) and Federation of Women Entrepreneurs Association of Nepal (FWEAN) among others. I believe in getting women trained and educated to empower them rather than spoiling them with cash money. It is more important to guarantee how money gets utilised, she says. And then adds, If corporate entities in Nepal are only seen making money but not giving back anything to the society, it will be difficult to survive in the long run. As the gap between haves and havenots widen further, social tensions that Nepal already suffers from will reach an unprecedented high. Having lost her father at a time when she was just about starting to know him, left a deep impact on Rana's psyche.</span></p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Hence, she wants to make sure that her two children 13-year-old daughter Keshya Rana and 6-year-old son Satyajot Rana receive the best parentage, My husband and I want to give them the best of both parents and family values. She aspires to give her children quality education and exposure so that they can grow up as capable individuals and stand on their own feet. They must equip themselves and prove their worth. I don't want them to take the family legacy for granted, she elaborates. Rana further assures that Keshya, a boarder of all-girls Downe House School at Berkshire in England, and Satyajot, a student of British Primary School in Kathmandu, will be free to chart their own career courses and won't be pressurised to join the family business. While agreeing that she is very content as a person, Rana wishes her mother was alive today to see her treading a successful trail.</span></p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:12px;">How I wish I could spend more time with her,she gets a tad emotional. Growing up in a close knit family and a comfortable set up, she has never let her affluent background go to her head. She philosophises, I have been very fortunate with my wants and desires so it has been smooth sailing all along with no major regrets whatsoever. A house-proud person, she sees to it that her children eat at home whenever they are around. She believes that her husband, as a thinker, is the right kind of motivation she has in life,He has always been my backbone and encouraged me to move ahead. Just when I thought I knew her well enough by now,</span></p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Rana narrated an anecdote to me, which she says was an eye-opener of sorts for her.Due to my penchant for seeking women rights, my husband once wondered if he has deprived me of anything in life. It made me wake up to a realisation that I need to be more sensitive towards people who are dearest to me, she recounts. A complete believer in putting her time to good use, Rana signs off on a defining note,I have to constantly work towards ensuring that I am worth my being which makes it all the more important for me to have my own identity.&nbsp;</span></p>',

	<span style="font-size:12px;"><img align="left" alt="personality" border="1" height="214" hspace="5" src="http://newbusinessage.com/ckfinder/userfiles/Images/hero1.jpg" style="width: 181px; height: 214px;margin:10px;padding:10px;" vspace="5" width="181" /></span></p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:12px;">The entire business community is yearning for a favourable investment climate. Each and every business house and enterprise is waiting for the moment that is unlikely to arrive anytime soon. Sandeep Sharda, the Director of Sharda Group, one of the largest business houses of Nepal, is not pessimistic though about the situation but prefers to play it safe like his peers in the business community. He says he is not so comfortable in venturing into new projects and making any significant moves other than keeping the current ventures alive.</span></p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:12px;">The conglomerate has interests in manufacturing and trading of industrial goods to consumer durables and nondurables. The journey of Sharda Group began with garment trading almost 100 years ago. Real success of the group began after Shardaâ€™s great grandfather established a rice mill at Lahan in 1948. The success of the company began with this very business. Sharda has been involved in the family business since his 18th birthday. Being the eldest son in the family, he has given his all to take the family business ahead. Today, the group has an annual turnover of more than US $ 150 million.</span></p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Pioneer Carpet Industries, Shangrila Housing, Bajra Shangrila Residency, Infratech and Shivam Cement Industries are some of the companies Sharda oversees that are either established by him individually or under joint ventures. Born in an industrial family, doing business was in his blood and during his school days, he dreamt of having his own business.</span></p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><img align="middle" alt="personality" border="5" height="243" hspace="4" src="http://newbusinessage.com/ckfinder/userfiles/Images/1stof.jpg" style="margin:10px;padding:10px;" vspace="4" width="300" /></span></p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:12px;">A television set used to be the object of desire those days, he says. So, I wanted to import and sell gadgets like TVs and VCRs, he adds. Sharda was pursuing his college degree in Kolkata when he had to return back to Nepal since his father was unwell. His brothers were young and studying abroad. So, being the eldest son, he had the responsibility to take care of his father and the business. Sharda successfully took up the responsibilities on his shoulders and became occupied. In the bargain, he could not pursue his education further than the bachelor level. Sharda began his career as a business person in the early 1990s.</span></p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:12px;">The lucrative returns from carpet trading lured him to indulge further in the trade. He says the returns and travel opportunities created by carpet trading made him choose this sector. His first venture, now named Pioneer Carpet Industries, was a success for young Sharda as the carpet industry was booming and its export was at the peak. He claims, I became one of the largest exporters in Nepal and was felicitated with numerous awards by the government including Commercially Important Person within seven to eight years. His success in carpet trading inspired him to venture into many other businesses in the future. After Pioneer Carpets, he started importing reconditioned cars from Japan in 1994 which, unfortunately, did not yield profits to him. â€œI believe in destiny and I thought it was not meant for me so I dropped the project,' he admits nonchalantly. Sharda prefers joint ventures. He explains, You cannot think and do everything on your own. It's good to have likeminded people with whom you can share your ideas and visions and produce something great.'In partnership with his close friends, he has set up housing projects like Shangrila Housing and Bajra Shangrila and the largest cement industry of Nepal, Shivam Cement, which is soon going to begin operations.</span></p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Living in a joint family where every member is passionate about business, decisions are made jointly. He says, 'Nobody decides alone in our family, we talk to each other, share ideas and discuss in detail before reaching any decision.' Sharda believes that the business focus should be on ensuring a good turnover. He suggests that an aggressive attitude does help achieve business goals. 'Where there is an opportunity for profit, there will be a chance of making loss too,' he says. Sharda recommends aspiring entrepreneurs to be practical and believes everything can be achieved with hard work, dedication and by setting a clear goal. According to him, there are no alternatives to sincerity, honesty and punctuality which are essential for registering success.</span></p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Even though success in any business is determined by profit and turnover, he opines that success is not only about making a huge amount of money. He philosophises, 'Success is also about giving back to the people in the society in the form of employment or offering them the best products and services with honesty and sincerity. There are so many other things that are much valuable than money itself.' Sharda trusts his colleagues much and believes in assigning appropriate roles to people working with him. He maintains a close relationship with his employees and keeps himself updated about everything. 'I talk to each person every day, talk to the team leaders and get reports and feedback,' he tells. He likes to maintain a distance between his personal and professional lives. He spends around nine hours for his work and prefers to have after hours and weekends for his family and kids. 'I have two wonderful children and it is good to see them growing up. The moments I spend with my family are more fun than my work but business is my profession and I love running it, he proudly states. He also loves to spend time with friends, listen to music, watch movies and attend parties when possible.</span></p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Likewise, he likes to travel and considers himself fortunate to have travelled many countries for his vacations and business trips. Sharda is also involved in philanthropy and is an active member of Kathmandu Metro Round Table 4, an international organisation. Our slogan is Freedom through education and we build school buildings in various parts of Nepal as well as sponsor needy children through fund raising,â€ he says.&nbsp;</span></p>

	<span style="font-size: 12px;">Sharda is keenly waiting for the business and investment climate to become favourable and wishes that the current slowdown in the business sector would get over soon. I am not currently happy with the pace this sector is moving at, he expresses his displeasure. He is on a wait and watch mode and does not have any new projects lined up in the foreseeable future. Doing business is a very challenging proposition at the moment so I am just giving continuity to my current ventures, he shares. He dreams of achieving the kind of success which he thinks he has not tasted yet. And that's precisely why he prays for a suitable business environment as soon as possible.&nbsp; <br />

	<img align="right" alt="" border="1" hspace="5" src="http://newbusinessage.com/ckfinder/userfiles/Images/golcha.jpg" style="width: 339px; height: 589px; margin: 10px; padding: 10px;" vspace="5" />Young , dynamic and a businessman at heart, Hemant Golchha is the Executive Director of Golchha Organisation, a leading corporate house of Nepal with a nearly 100 year long history. He is one of the successful young entrepreneurs who dreams success for his ventures and goes about achieving them. Ram Lal Golchha, the great grandfather of Hemant Golchha, sowed the seeds of Golchha Organisation almost a hundred years ago. He started the business with exporting jute from Nepal to industries in India. The business gave him lucrative returns and inspired to venture into other projects. Golchha says that his great grandfather had played an important role in establishing the first industry of the nation&nbsp; Biratnagar Jute Mill. Ram Lal Golchha established his own jute industry followed by steel industries. </p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
	 </p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
	He never looked back and a perpetual growth always followed the Golchhas. Hemant Golchha is a fourth generation businessman and his five younger brothers have also joined the business. He has put his efforts with new vision and thoughts to steer the family business in new areas. He has the promise to lead the organisation with the same dignity and success that his earlier generations had achieved. Golchha grew up in a close-knit joint family and his childhood was not completely different than any other child's. He recalls having fun during the days when relatives gathered at home for festivals. He says, It was a lot of fun and I enjoyed growing up in a joint family. We used to have a good time with school friends as there was nothing to worry about. He would visit Biratnagar for festivals where half of his family members were living. </p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
	 </p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
	Despite being from a privileged family, he was taught to be honest, humble, simple, truthful and unpretentious about being wealthy. Our modest ways made sure that the family enjoyed a certain level of respect in the community. We never ran businesses solely for the purpose of making money, says Golchha. Golchha completed his schooling from St Xavier's School at Jawalakhel and then attended St Joseph's College of Commerce in Bangalore for his intermediate and undergraduate degrees. He regrets that he could not pursue a master's degree once he started shouldering business responsibilities. He recommends youngsters to complete studies before joining business. </p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
	Once you get involved with a business, it is difficult to find time, he reasons. After returning from Bangalore, he spent around two years training with various industries in Nepal and Australia and joined his family's business in 1992 at the age of 24. G o l c h h a w a s g i v e n t h e responsibility of managing Koshi Metal, a tin container manufacturing industry in Biratnagar. To his credit, he successfully made it a profitable proposition from being a loss bearing industry. In his much younger days, he aspired to be like his great grandfather. </p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
	I always wanted to be like him and follow the path he has shown&nbsp; the path of integrity, dedication, honesty and no compromise between business and hard work, he explains. Vijay Mallya, a celebrity businessperson from India inspired him to live life king size and enjoy the wealth earned from business. It is not a bad thing to enjoy our earnings. He was one of my idols during my college days because of his lifestyle, says Golchha. He believes he was destined to be a business person since he was born in a business family. Everything moved gradually in the direction it was supposed to move and entering the business was his obvious goal. Golchha's maternal grandfather and uncle were into film making which has ignited a desire in him to turn a filmmaker some day. I have not thought about making movies as a profession but only as a hobby. I will definitely make a movie some day, he states enthusiastically. </p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
	He was also active in motorsports during his college days that speak volume for his versatility. He asserts even if he was not born in a business family, he would have still pursued a career in business. Though, of course, he credits his family for what he is today and acknowledges that his business lineage made his job that much easier. Golchha's career that began with container manufacturing continued with added responsibility in other sectors as well. He was assigned to lead Shree Ram Sugar Mill in Rautahat since 1994. He made a historic move in the family's business by making inroads into remittance, tourism and housing sectors that were never part of business with Golchha Organisation. Equal to 25 per cent of Nepal's GDP is received in the country as remittance and another 25 per cent is from travel and tourism. If you do not have a presence in the areas that are equal to some 50 per cent of the nation's GDP, you cannot call yourself a large business house. This is what influenced my decision to venture into these areas, he says. Hulas Remittance has become one of the largest Western Union agents and figured among top ten money transfer companies in the country within five years of its commencing operations. </p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
	<br />
	Golchha started a travel and tour company last year, Travel World Experiences, which focuses on inbound tours. He is optimistic that it too will prove to be a successful venture in due time. Meanwhile, he also decided to make a foray into the real estate sector in association with a few friends which resulted in the establishment of Shangrila Housing. Golchha believes that maintaining a leading position largely depends on performance. He says, You might do very well one year but you may not do so well the next. He is dedicated and focused to make sure that his businesses attain success and has no desire to hog the limelight. I want my projects to be more recognised than myself. My total joy lies in the success of my business ventures and the positions they hold in the market. Travel opportunities that come as part of doing business is one of the most charming aspects, he says.<br />
	<br />
	I also enjoy being at my office and like working with the team members who are more like my friends, he states. The financial crunch being experienced by the economy worries him a great deal and this is one aspect he does not like about doing business. With a very forthright vision about doing business, he philosophises, If I don't enjoy doing a particular business, I will rather do something else. Golchha believes that employees are the soul of a company and having a good team is essential for its success. If you compromise while putting together a team, your business will never succeed. We are only entrepreneurs and without a good team, we cannot do everything on our own, he says. He is of the opinion that it is important to provide good remuneration and environment for motivating the human resource. He says, It is vital to give people a sense of belonging.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
	<br />
	He prefers to decide from the heart while dealing with colleagues, employees and customers. A workaholic during the initial days of his career, he has now changed his working style somewhat due to added family responsibilities. He gives a lot of time to his family and returns home early to spend quality time with his two children. He also plans a holiday every year with his family to explore a new destination. Likewise, he also takes out time for his friends and likes to hang out with them at coffee shops. Golchha likes to watch entertaining movies and listen to Hindi music during his free time and also plays games with his kids. He is quite a party animal and usually spends his Friday evenings at different parties booked by friends. He hits the gym regularly and runs for around half an hour every day. He has a long list to do before he dies. Going on a long road trip from Kathmandu to Europe via Iraq, Iran and the exotic lands, is one of them.</p>',

<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Gyanendra Bhakta Joshi, Managing Director of Swift Air, is determined to touch the sky with his dream project. It is his passion for aircraft and tourism that drove Joshi to set up his own airline. He says he decided to venture into the airline sector to set a milestone in the aviation market.<br />
	<br />
	</span></div>
<div>
	<div style="text-align: justify;">
		<span style="font-size:12px;"><strong>By Gaurav Aryal<br />
		<br />
		</strong></span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Once on the day of Vijaya Dashami, Gyanendra Bhakta Joshi's elder brother blessed him that he would own an airline one day. While working with Skyline Airlines that is not in existence today, Joshi secretly wished he would have a company of his own. His dream got a new life after meeting Bishnu Prasad Khadgi, now his friend and business partner.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><br />
	</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Joshi is Managing Director (MD) of Swift Air Nepal Pvt Ltd, a newly established domestic airline. Swift Air is planning to commence its operations from October. He said that the company is bringing in two aircraft in first phase. Of these two, the first one is to arrive in October. Joshi, enthusiastic about making his dream project come alive, is spending day and night just to make sure that his dream is realised.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><br />
	</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">It was in the alleys of Ason that Joshi wandered around as a child. Though his ancestors were from Bhaktapur, his grandfathers moved to Kathmandu. He went to St Xavier's School Godavary and later transferred to Ananda Kuti Vidyapeeth at Swayambhu, where he completed his schooling. He credits St Xavier's for making his academic base strong. Joshi graduated in Commerce from Shankar Dev Campus.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><br />
	</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">His family had a hardware store at Ason. Joshi's father and grandfathers had dedicated their life entirely to business. But his uncles took to the service industry. Joshi followed their footsteps and landed in the tourism sector.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><br />
	</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">He began his career from assistant level in Everest Express Tours and Travels around 25 years ago. That was my first job and I was paid Rs 400 a month, he recalls. In the following years, he worked in Pristine Travels, Tiger Tops Resort and even USAID. Then, I entered the aviation sector with Skyline Airlines in a managerial position, he shares his journey to the airlines business. He has even worked as Sales Manager with GMG Airlines of Bangladesh. I like this sector, so, now I am fully into it, says Joshi. He says his career in the tourism, travel and airlines helped him develop a passion for these areas. Joshi reveals, he is obsessed with aircraft and often visits websites of Boeing and Airbus to update himself with the latest developments and innovations. Now, I have my own aviation company because of that passion, he boasts. Joshi is proud that he has made his brother's blessings become a reality.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><br />
	</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Joshi counts Skyline's Executive Director Dorje Sherpa as his aviation guru. Whatever I have learned, I learned it from him. I express my gratitude to him for what I have become today, he acknowledges. The aviation know-how did not easily make him the MD of Swift Air. Joshi's hard work, dedication and struggles have paid off.&nbsp;</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><br />
	</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">It was three years back that Joshi had thought of setting up an airline and he even started working towards that. Unfortunately, it did not turn into reality. After one and a half years, he met Bishnu Prasad Khadgi who is now Executive Chairman of Swift Air. With one year of homework they received AOC (Air Operator's Certificate).&nbsp;Joshi's two sons who are living overseas are happy to know about their father's venture.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Khadgi is his only business partner now. Though they had targeted to fly from January 2011, they are now planning for an October launch. Cost is too heavy as it requires setting up offices in every destination. However, this also creates job opportunity in every destination we reach. I feel proud to give employment to more people, he says.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Joshi says his company will have around 70 staff members in the beginning. According to Joshi, good incentives and listening to their complaints will motivate staff. He feels that boss is not always right. Joshi thinks staff is the asset of a company. I advise and assist my staff as and when required. I will treat all my staff equally, he shares his human resource management principle. He believes in giving opportunity to new comers too.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><br />
	</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Joshi does not believe in interfering much in the office management. Although, he wants the line of communication maintained.We just want to know what employees are doing. They must also feel that they are working for their own company and we believe they will. When the company prospers, they will prosper too, he opines.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><br />
	</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Joshi does not have much to complain about the aviation policy of Nepal. However he is dissatisfied with air traffic problems. He urges the government to find a solution as soon as possible. He sees a good future and market prospect for the travel industry. He reveals this is one of the reasons behind establishing his airline business. He observes that the tourism sector is growing more every year and he wishes it to boom in the future. According to Joshi, aviation industry is doing well. He says, We established the company with the motto: Let's be a part of aviation team in Nepal.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><br />
	</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Joshi has already thought of expanding the business in the future. However, he and Khadgi do not have plans to do it within two years. They want to first sustain in the competitive market. After two years, we will go for expansion,he discloses.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><br />
	</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">I am more focused on my dream project, he says with a touch of grit. At least 12 hours of his day is spent in work. Joshi says he gets time for his family only during mealtime. However, on Saturdays, when he is mostly on leisure, he loves to go on a drive with his wife. Apart from that, his free time is spent meeting with relatives, staying at home, watching TV or listening to music. He does not usually travel but he promises to do so as his new venture will require him to travel. At times, Joshi feels lonely when his sons are not with him. He says being away from sons have become his part of life. Joshi lives with his wife at Sitapaila.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><br />
	</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Joshi does not have regrets about his career. He feels he is happy with what his life has given him. I have settled down and I possess everything I need, he expresses contentment. The only regret he has from his life is that he could not save his mother who was suffering from cancer. He took her to the best hospitals in Mumbai and Delhi but she could not be saved. That was the saddest part in our life: for me and my family. It has been almost 15 years, but still I feel like crying when I remember those times, he gets sentimental.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><br />
	</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Joshi's life is closely knit with his profession and his dream project.&nbsp;His wishes, his dreams are associated with his newly established company. I just want to see Swift Air growing.&nbsp;The more it grows, the more people will be employed. And, I wish we could add more aircraft to the fleet, he says.</span></div>

		Moti Lal Dugar, 65, believes he is the most fortunate person to be born in a business family. It takes a little more than a hint of luck to take an already established business house to the next level of success. Dugar is an heir to 127 years old business legacy of the Dugar Group.<br />

<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 14.15pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Dugar is now Chairman of TM Dugar Group that has a wide array of interests ranging from banking, hydropower, automobiles, agro solutions, life insurance, FMCG products, agro based industries, consultancy to automobiles, among others. He is also Chairman of Sunrise Bank Ltd and Gurans Life Insurance Co Ltd, two public limited companies promoted by TM Dugar Group with some friends. Dugar says he does not like to be involved in any politics of business and never wished to be a front runner in any association. However, he feels it is okay to be associated with those forums which are directly related to his business and trade. He is the Treasurer of Nepal-USA Chamber of Commerce and Industry and Forum of Nepalese Banks.</span></div>

<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 14.15pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Dugar was born and educated in Biratnagar. He went to Adarsha Vidyalaya, a school that has produced a number of prominent entrepreneurs and politicians. He received education till BCom at Mahendra Morang College. The Dugars were one of the well-off families even during those days. He recalls the range of luxuries available at his home those days bullock cart, horses, maids and servants. During his college days, Dugar used to ride a Honda 250cc motorcycle imported from Japan. He remembers the first family car a Land Rover. During his student days, he was one of the good students in class though he never stood among the top three. Sport was not his cup of tea either. However, as a child, he was fond of traditional children's games like marbles and <i>dandi biyo</i> among others.</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 14.15pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;">

	</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 14.15pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">He was in his early teens when he began working in his family business. At the age of around 17, he took up full responsibility and started looking after some of his companies. At that time, Dugars were in a joint family and living in Biratnagar. His elder Brother Tola Ram Dugar was looking after the business after their father died. After Tola Ram Dugar passed away in May 2011, Moti Lal has taken over the lead of the TM Dugar Group. Moti Lal was just 11 when his father passed away. Young Dugar began his career at the textile shop. Gradually, he started visiting industries and understood the knots and bolts of handling a business. He took up the responsibility from keeping accounts to making contracts, looking after exports, export-import contracts and even LCs. The initial business of the Dugars was textiles and agro products. The business was later expanded to jute export, steel factory, rice mills and others.</span></div>

<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 14.15pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">The process of expansion in fact never stopped. In the same course, the family shifted to Kathmandu. The family business was sector-wise divided among four brothers. Among those, Moti Lal got the automobiles business for which he was working since the beginning. It has been four decades since he began working in this sector. Now, he is also a specialist in automobile, banking and insurance. He is planning to venture into hydropower. The Dugar group has always been the leading industrial group of Nepal. Dugar is content with the growth and development of the company. He says, â€œOur family always aimed at taking the business to next level. So far, we are satisfactorily moving ahead. We are successful in maintaining the leadership position in every business we ventured into.He adds that his company has been successful in sticking to its principle. Maintaining the status achieved in the course of 127 years is what Dugar feels is a matter of satisfaction and an achievement in itself. </span></div>

	<span style="font-size:12px;">He feels he inherited the success that was accomplished by his parents and senior family members. He gives the credit of his company's success to them, especially his eldest brother late Tolaram Dugar whom his regards as high as his father not only as elder brother. More importantly, he feels he inherited the trust and belief of Nepali people in his group. He expresses pleasure to be born as a business person. He does not have any regrets about having the career that he thinks was destined for him. According to Dugar, job satisfaction is the most pleasing aspect of the business.</span></div>

	<span style="font-size:12px;">Dugar claims that honesty is the everlasting principle of the Dugar group. Dugar explains, <img align="right" alt="intreview" border="1" height="331" hspace="10" src="http://newbusinessage.com/ckfinder/userfiles/Images/sep-per1.jpg" style="margin:10px;paading:10px;" vspace="10" width="400" />â€œHigh degree of honesty must be maintained. Customers should not be cheated. A business can never sustain without customer's trust. The group has been working with such vision and belief.Dugar believes clients are the incarnation of Goddess Laxmi Goddess of wealth and she should not be cheated. He says thanks to such principles, the group is valued high in the market today.</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 14.15pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;">

	<span style="font-size:12px;">For Dugar, profit, loss or big money is not the measure of success. He says, There are many other groups who have more money than us. We began from scratch and achieved this status. We are satisfied with this. Our business image has never been lower than others and that has been a matter of pride for us. He identifies success in the manner the people recognise and trust the group. Profit and loss is something that keeps changing but the recognition does not and it will lead to profit and stability of the company. He feels his next generation has a ready path shown by the long history of the group. They don't have to work too hard. They just need to add cherry on top, he says. Fifth generation of the Dugar family his grandchildren will soon join the business after their education.</span></div>

<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 13.9pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">The group that was initially into the food grain and agro based industries stepped into the service industry through banking and insurance around five years back. Dugar sees the future of Nepal in three areas hydropower, tourism and agriculture. He says Nepal cannot compete with India and China with a high cost of production by subsidising industries with a bundle of discounts and waivers. Although the Dugar group does not have any plans to venture into tourism sector, it will soon be developing hydroelectricity projects. The group is planning to develop more than 170 Megawatts of hydroelectricity in the near future. Pan Himalaya Energy Pvt Ltd, Global Hydro Power Associate Pvt Ltd and Numbur Himalaya Hydropower Pvt Ltd have been established by the group for&nbsp;tapping hydropower potentials in the country. He thinks hydropower is a money-making industry that has huge export potentials although it is a capital-intensive sector. He says hydropower is liked by the world for its environmental benefits and sustainability.</span></div>

<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 13.9pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">On Nepal's failure to develop hydroelectricity sector despite huge potentials, Dugar says, All political parties must have genuine commitment for the development of the nation. Everyone must shed his leg-pulling attitude and should respect others' ideas if they benefit the nation. Such massive projects will not be possible without foreign investors. They must be welcomed anyhow. Investment worth billions of rupees will not come just with phoney speeches.</span></div>

	<span style="font-size:12px;">While deciding anything about the companies in the group, one person looking after a particular sector never interferes with another. He reveals that there will be discussions on visions and plans and anyone in the family can invest if he has interests.</span></div>

	<span style="font-size:12px;">In the TM Dugar Group, 1,500 employees are working. Dugar says a separate committee looks after the human resource management. He says human resource is the real capital of any company. So, we provide handsome salary as motivation. People working here have a distinct and prestigious life, he says. He reveals that employees are quite steady with the companies. He shares numerous examples of people working in the group for as long as three generations.</span></div>

	<span style="font-size:12px;">Dugar says he does not have uber luxury in life. He likes to lead a simple life and does not have any luxurious demands. Dugar gets up at six in the morning and goes to health club. For remaining healthy, he exercises everyday and is conscious about food habits. After having breakfast, he goes to his office between 10 and 10:30 in the morning and returns home at around 8 pm. He does not have much interest in social parties and rather feels annoyed if he has to frequently attend them. He thinks partying more than once a week is too much. He loves watching television, chatting with family, reading newspapers and listening to music. These are his favourite pastimes. He does not work on Saturdays. His mornings and evenings are dedicated to his family.</span></div>

	<span style="font-size:12px;">When he has to suggest anyone who wants to follow his footsteps, he says: Do anything with dedication, focus and honesty. Do not dive into anything seeing someone else making profit. It is wise to focus on expanding what you already have. The competition is so tough so you must be careful while investing. You may lose your hard earned money. In this regards, I am quite conservative.</span></div>

	<span style="font-size:12px;">When it comes to charity and philanthropy, he believes in building hospitals rather than building a temple. When we have some problems (health) we need hospitals as temples cannot cure us. Building a hospital is more spiritual than a temple. It does not mean I am atheist but I believe more people will benefit from a hospital,â€ he opines. He adds hospital is for service while a temple is for satisfaction. A hospital built by his late elder brother has been handed over to Koshi Zonal Hospital in Biratnagar.</span></div>

	<span style="font-size:12px;">Dugar does not believe in a retired life. Though 65, he looks much younger to his age and is actively involved in business. He says, Retirement makes one feel old and weak. It diminishes the capacity as well as the prestige. Everyone respects active person. I believe one should not retire and should work as long as one can. </span></div>

	<span style="font-size:12px;">He has three jewellery stores in USA. He has recently diversified his business through the Maharjan Group that he established some years ago. R B Diamond Jewellers is the manufacturer, wholesaler and exporter of diamond jewelleries while Nepal Diamond Company deals in diamond and gold. Nenergy International is working in the area of developing hydroelectricity.

	<span style="font-size:12px;">Maharjan's childhood was largely spent in the agricultural milieu. His parents were farmers in Lalitpur but they had a sense that their children must go to school and get education. He passed his School Leaving Certificate from Namuna Machhindra School at Lagankhel. He passed Intermediate from Patan Campus. However, he did not take his education further.</span></div>

<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 14.15pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Maharjan and his family did not see their farm leading them anywhere. â€œI did not see any future there,he says. Since my childhood I thought of doing things differently and in the best possible way.Maharjan says business was sitting deeply in his mind. He was concentrating on agriculture thinking he will land a good job some day.&nbsp;Apart from his works in the field, he was active in the local clubs, libraries, and in the locality and even won a local election. At times, he thought of going for foreign employment as well.</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 14.15pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;">

<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 14.15pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">His young romantic days were going on. Then, his family insisted him to get married. Though young Maharjan was determined to make his dreams come true before tying the nuptial knot, he surrendered to his family and married Sarita Maharjan with whom he was in love. Sarita turned out to be his lady luck. At that time, he was just 18. Sarita's family was in Hong Kong. Maharjan's in-laws invited him to Hong Kong as they thought there is not much scope in the country. Then, he took a job in Hong Kong at a wholesale company of diamonds as a helper.</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 14.15pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;">

<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 14.15pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">He proved his honesty and won the confidence of the bosses. So, he was gradually given more tasks of messenger and even handling banking transactions. They even tested my greed and left thousands of dollars in open drawers when I was the only person in the office. Next morning, they used to cross-check. I never thought of betraying them but was dedicated to perform well to get more salary in a legitimate way, he narrates how he passed the tests.</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 14.15pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;">

<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 14.15pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Working for the whole day had a benefit that he never felt homesick. He claims he worked from 5 am to midnight so that he can sleep quietly at night and does not have to miss his family back home. He was always conscious and determined that one day he has to return to Nepal. While in Hong Kong, he developed the interest in diamonds and also thought of taking something back. Then, he requested his employer to get him some training so that he can learn about diamonds. He says, My boss was a friendly person and he used to help us with everything as he understood we the foreigners will return if we were not given proper facilities. He was also happy to see my eagerness developing for diamonds and arranged for a basic training from the very next day. After completing his works in the office, he would go for training from 9 pm to 11 pm. </span></div>

	<span style="font-size: 12px;"><br />
	Maharjan shares, I acquired basic knowledge on types, grading and assorting diamonds. Then, I requested my employers for further trainings. Later, he was sent to Mumbai for a six-month training at the company's factory for cutting, grading and polishing. I was there just to gain knowledge on diamonds. So, I did not even cross the railway station and kept myself fully focussed on my training. In the beginning, I felt quite uncomfortable as I did not even know how to hold a diamond properly. Gradually, I learned everything, he recalls. </span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 14.15pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><br />
	</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 14.15pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">There too he spent the whole day pondering over the diamonds. He claims he grabbed things quickly and could separate colours within two weeks. As he learnt things he also started working there though he was not being paid. At the end of six months training, he was found to be performing&nbsp;well like veterans of the industry, he claims. When he returned to Hong Kong, the company's views about him changed. He was promoted to sales department. However, he did not stop learning while on the job. He says, For a couple of years more, I learnt from the market on pricing and quality and even on the ways of marketing.</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 14.15pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;">

	</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 14.15pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">After staying for around seven years in Hong Kong, he decided to return to the country as the family also asked him to do so. When he returned, he was not alone. He had knowledge, skills and even money to invest in the business of his own. For three months, he carried out a kind of market survey, leaving no jewellery shops unvisited. In three months, he found expertise missing from the sector in his country. The way of working was not appropriate either. Then, I felt in markets like Nepal, such valuable things can only be sold with a guarantee and not as use-and-throw item, he says.<br />
	<br />
	</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 14.15pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">He sees a lot of artisans and craftsmen&nbsp;here but their ways of working worry&nbsp;him. Maharjan believes that best masterpieces can be created in Nepal itself, which will have the potential to be sold anywhere in the world. I encourage people in this business to create fusion of our traditional knowledge with the modernity, he says. He does not see any competition in the field of creativity.</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 14.15pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><br />
	</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 14.15pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Maharjan has always prioritised doing something new than simply following what others are doing in the crowd. That is the mantra to be on the top, he believes. Then, he initiated manufacturing in a professional manner as he was not satisfied with the quality of locally-made jewelleries.</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 14.15pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><br />
	</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 14.15pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">For Maharjan, business is more than profit and margins. He believes jewellery business cannot sustain without goodwill and trust. He describes, Customers must be assured that they will get back cash upon returning the products. My target is to do marketing through quality rather than advertisements. Maybe, that is why he claims that he has never advertised his jewellery store or even kept a billboard with the showroom's name. He claims he gets customers through trust and goodwill gained by selling quality products.</span></div>

<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 14.15pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Maharjan sees the jewellery market growing in the last four years with a definite change in lifestyle of people in Nepal. In the past, only head of the family used to earn but now everyone makes some earnings. They can afford what they desire for. Rather than copying others, now people want something unique to look different,he explains. He adds that it is Nepali culture to invest in jewelleries and houses as&nbsp;assets rather than luxury.</span></div>

<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 14.15pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Maharjan says he is very much satisfied with what he is doing. His business philosophy based on service rather than just selling precious metals has grown multinational. He has stores at Manhattan Fifth Avenue, Alaska and a distribution point in Los Angeles. In 2005 the first store was opened in USA on his wife's insistence. Now, Maharjan's in-laws are looking after the stores there. We wanted to see how it works outside and we had that confidence too. We were overwhelmed by the response of people when we put up a stall for the first time at a programme organised by Nepalis in America,he proudly shares. He claims he sold jewelleries worth US$ 10 thousand within half an hour. Then, the first store in Manhattan was opened with the help of the company where he worked in Hong Kong. He says he still has good relations with the company, where he learnt the tricks of the trade. Now, the major export destination of finished diamond products from Nepal is the US itself and these products are exported through R B Diamond Jewellers.</span></div>

	<span style="font-size:12px;">Under his group, more than 150 employees are working. Maharjan claims that he treats them as his family. â€œIt depends on them where the company will head for. I believe good people should prosper and succeed. I take care of their comfort and satisfaction,he shares his ways of motivating staff. He says problems are sorted out by discussing them. He has also given them assurance that they don't have to worry about their family's health and education. Maharjan also claims that he can't bear the sad faces of employees and cares that they don't get hurt.</span></div>

	<span style="font-size:12px;">He is planning to expand his business further to handicraft. Maharjan's aim has always been to promote the local knowledge and craftsmanship. In his free time, Maharjan concentrates on the designs and obtaining more knowledge in the stones. He is currently busy designing for the 2012 collections. He says he can ponder over a stone for hours. Apart from that, he also likes to read spiritual books and contemplate on spiritual aspects of life. Maharjan says he is content with what he has got and does not think much about himself and his luxurious wish list. Even during leisure he plans about his companies. He says his family has always been with him even in the business so he feels lucky that he does not have to fight over managing time.</span></div>

	<span style="font-size:12px;">Maharjan goes back to past, I used to feel that I don't have any vision. From my seniors, I learnt a lot about life and even doing business. I am here all because of such guiding hands and suggestions. He also has the hope that his second generation will take his business further. He expects their education, energy and his experiences to lead the business in future.</span></div>

	<span style="color:#000;"><span style="font-size: 12px;">Suresh Kumar Basnet stepped into the world of business with Rs 7,000 back in 1979. For Basnet, that was a big money managed all by himself to start his business. At that time, he saw demand for fancy clothes, watches, photography equipment, typewriters in the cities of the plain like Bhairahawa, Biratnagar and other places. I supplied those goods from the wholesalers in Kathmandu to these cities,he shares the story behind the inception of his business and career. Basnet gained experience and knowledge about his business with time from the people in his fraternity. He was not hesitant to shift to those goods and businesses that offered lucrative returns.</span></span></div>

	<span style="color:#000;"><span style="font-size: 12px;">Basnet was born in Kathmandu in 1955. His family was a working class family. It was around 1960 that his family bought a piece of land in Chitwan. Young Basnet shifted to Chitwan in 1962 where he completed his school education. We had an extended family and since we were financially weak we decided to shift to Chitwan, Basnet clarifies. He adds, There I learnt to be a hard-working man. I took to farming, did household chores and saw myself being shifted from one place to another with the passage of time. He emotionally says that in Chitwan he could realise what the hardship is and what the joys are the two realities of life.<br />

	<span style="color:#000;"><span style="font-size: 12px;">Basnet proudly claims that in his student days, he was quite a good student. Apart from his studies, he was fond of playing football, volleyball, badminton and chess. He was counted as one of the best players of the district those days.</span></span></div>

	<span style="color:#000;"><span style="font-size: 12px;">After graduating the School Leaving Certificate, he came back to Kathmandu with a dream of becoming a doctor. To pursue his dream, he joined Amrit Science Campus. However he was forced to take up physics as he could not study Biology in his high school in the absence of a biology teacher. Basnet largely relied on lectures as books were so rare and expensive those days. He recalls how he had to wait for months for a book in the college library. During his exam time, his fate took a different turn. He fainted while appearing for his exams. I had to leave my studies for around six months because of my illness. When I returned to college, my principal said that I have missed the course and asked me to start afresh next year,Basnet says. Meanwhile, his relatives advised him to change the subject and&nbsp;study commerce rather than waiting for the next session.</span></span></div>

He later completed his graduation from Shankardev Campus in business studies. While pursuing his business studies, Basnet somewhere felt that he should polish his entrepreneur skills and start doing something on his own.I established a firm for import-export, he shares his early days. Basnet picked up business fundamentals from his brother's friend who ran a company in Putalisadak. Basnet was around 26 when he started his business. A lot of hard work in the years that followed earned me vital business contacts that helped me in my export-import business, he reveals. At that time Basnet used to deal with the third-country goods but he claims he never dealt with cheap goods from Khasa, China. He opened an LC account to make his export-import business a formal one.&nbsp;Basnet usually dealt in items with seasonal demands like dry fruits and readymade garments during major festivals like Dashain and Tihar. Apart from that he also tried dealing with photography goods, motor parts, ball bearings and later on even in vehicles. He admits that often he had to bear losses for not having enough experience and expertise. He adds, I thought of getting into industries. I was into garments, carpet, and pashmina. In the pashmina business, I incurred losses as well as made profits over the years His markets for these products were Japan, Korea and USA. He shares, I gained experience by doing the things. I learnt the nitty-gritty of business and kept on reworking on my strategies. I always received support from my family. My better-half is just like my business partner.</span></span></div>

	<span style="color:#000;"><span style="font-size: 12px;">Basnet has passed three decades in the business world. He thinks profit and loss are defined by the nature of business, time and environment, politics, dedication to work and a touch of luck. Sometimes despite hard work, enough investment and favourable time, some circumstances and luck may lead to failure,Basnet opines. Apart from profit and loss, business has taught me honesty, duty to pay taxes to the state, and to have patience and take risk, he says.</span></span></div>

	<span style="color:#000;"><span style="font-size: 12px;">Today Basnet has stopped importing and focuses only on export. I am looking for ways to export our products to other countries. I am targeting the US market though recession has bruised&nbsp;its demands. However, I have not stopped exporting pashmina, silver jewellery, handicraft, copper goods, small statues and carpets, he expresses determination. Basnet is looking forward to investing in hydroelectricity too. I am also searching for feasible products that can be produced with local raw materials and which has the market prospect within Nepal like dairy products,he adds.</span></span></div>

	<span style="color:#000;"><span style="font-size: 12px;">When he began his business, Basnet managed the investment from his own sources but today he feels the presence of commercial banks has eased financing for any project.

	<span style="color:#000;"><span style="font-size: 12px;">Basnet feels that he struggled throughout his life alone. His sons have always stayed away from home either for their studies or for their job. But we always have a cordial relationship with each other. I have given time to my family as much as possible. Previously, we used to spend quality time together at least once a month and every winter we used to visit some places within Nepal, he revealed the way he takes out time for his family. He thinks giving time to family means giving time to self also.</span></span></div>

At the end of the day, experience that he gathered maters to him much than the the status of profit and loss accounts. As any other human being, I also thought of making money but for that I never compromised with the business ethics, he proudly says. I never lied or cheated anybody and I always paid back the loans borrowed from the banks. That gives me immense satisfaction when I look back at my career.</span></span></div>

	<span style="color:#000;"><span style="font-size: 12px;">For the last 17 years, he has immersed himself into spiritual contemplation. He says, There is only one truth that is our soul and God. What we see with our eyes is nothing but illusion. Every morning, he meditates and ponders over spirituality for two hours. Basnet claims that NCC is also a kind of social organisation that has spent 58 years for the welfare of small, big and medium industries without any greed. He is also involved with a religious institution. I participate in some spiritual activities as religion is an integral part of our culture. My aim is to interact with the soul. I think our physical body is just like a mirage in the desert or the rope seen as a snake in dim light, he becomes saintly. </span></span></div>

	<span style="color:#000;"><span style="font-size: 12px;">In his free time, Basnet likes to visit Chitwan and indulges in prayer sessions. I know that exercise is needed to keep myself healthy but I have not been successful to manage time for it. But I do light exercises related to breathing and limbs every day for around half an hour, he revealed. I have some health problems but due to my spiritual inclination, they have not caused many problems to me, he claimed. Apart from that, he likes reading spiritual books, economic news and articles, occasionally watch family and social movies and TV channels like Discovery, National Geographic that air new and interesting things. He admits that he spends more time in spiritual contemplation. He feels his body has grown too old to indulge in any sports now.</span></span></div>

He does not dream of visiting new places, go swimming or golfing. He plans to immerse in his quest for spirituality. My philosophy is that being a human being, we are meant to find out who we are. So, I will also try to internalise the self, he declares.</span></span></span></div>

	<span style="font-size: 12px;">B</span><span style="font-size: 9.5pt;">orn into Rana aristocracy, Umang SJB Rana, the CEO of Westar Properties did not have life served on a platter for him. Not that his family couldn't afford so, it was because his parents wanted to instil earthly values in him right since his childhood. Rana expresses his gratitude for the same, I am what I am today largely because of my parents and the values they taught me.</span></div>

	<span style="font-size: 9.5pt;">The first child of Former Deputy Inspector General of Nepal Police Rupal SJB Rana and Montessori Teacher Usha Rana, he went to Dipendra Police School (which is now Nepal Police School), Sanga. Rana considers himself blessed to have travelled the length and breadth of Nepal, Being a policeman, my father relocated frequently to different parts of Nepal. I visited no less than 13 zones myself during my school vacations.&nbsp;</span></div>

	<span style="font-size: 9.5pt;">His father wanted at least one of his two sons to join the defence forces but young Umang had different ideas in mind. After completing his A-Level from Nagarjuna Academy and ISc from St Xavier's College, Rana left for Russia to study Civil Engineering. But he left the study midway and returned home two years later. I just couldn't complete it. I fell home sick, he admits in a near apologetic tone. Back in Nepal, he began pursuing Bachelor of Business Studies degree with specialisation in Human Resource. While still in college, Rana landed his first paid job a month long stint with Surya Tobacco Company (now Surya Nepal) for its product introduction. I was on the streets promoting the new product to the passers-by and asking them to try it. Each day, they will send me to a new location, he reminisces. </span></div>

	<span style="font-size: 9.5pt;">An introvert since early childhood, Rana had quite a few female acquaintances but never a serious relationship. He is happily married for seven years now and has a two-year-old son. You ask him about his school friends and he goes, Most of my friends from school are settled abroad. But I do come across the ones that are still here.Rana's wife Aashmi who owns Himali Pashmina Udyog was instrumental in goading him to turn a businessman. He says, I am lucky to have her as my life partner. She inspired me to take up business for a profession.</span></div>

	<span style="font-size: 9.5pt;">Venturing into business ended his career as a DHL executive. Rana had started out at DHL as an Assistant Operations Coordinator in 1999 and worked up the ladder to become its Country Operations Manager before he left in 2007. â€œI must say it was a rewarding career, he admits. Having travelled the entire South East Asia for his work, he had little left to achieve unless he wanted to take up a position with the company abroad. This is another factor that triggered his retirement from DHL as he did not want to move out of Nepal. After weighing several options, Rana finally decided to plunge into construction as, Apartment business was much in demand around three years ago which led to my decision to enter this line of business.One thing led to another and he entered into a technical collaboration with Westar Properties, Dubai. </span></div>

	<span style="font-size: 9.5pt;">Rana asserts that you can call a project a success only when it gets completed. It is precisely when commitment gets delivered and a dream turns into reality. He gets a bit emotional talking about his current project Westar Residency, a Vaastu compliant high-rise apartment building at Balkumari, Lalitpur. This is my baby. I have been involved with the project from scratch and it's immensely satisfying to see it taking shape,he says. A planner, by his own admission, he recommends infrastructure as a prime importance and wants the government to ensure infrastructure development for the overall development of the country.&nbsp;</span></div>

	<span style="font-size: 9.5pt;">He believes he was born with a golden heart, I go out of my way to help people. I guess it comes naturally to me.He is a religious person and prays for self-satisfaction. He draws inspiration from Bhagavad Gita your good actions automatically come back to you, sooner or later. Living in a joint family, he is a self-confessed homely person. He says that living in a joint family comes with a lot of advantages as well as responsibilities. On week days, it's a strict home-to-office and vice versa. He loves to catch up on movies though, with his wife and parents. He says, I am glad that there are a few good movie theatres now that we can go to.</span></div>

	<span style="font-size: 9.5pt;">Not a party animal, he normally attends social occasions only. Late nights are a complete no-no, I don't have this urge like a lot of other people to attend the so-called happening events in town.You will usually find Rana comfortably attired. He believes in dressing for the occasion. Clad in a suit while showing around his sample flats, he can be caught wearing shorts and T-shirts in summer. At other times, he loves to wear daura-suruwal for&nbsp; family functions. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size: 9.5pt; line-height: 115%;">He says it's just the right time for him to work hard, I am giving it all I have, for the completion of Westar Residency by its projected deadline 4th Qtr of 2012. Once the mission is accomplished, Rana wants to expand his business horizon and move into other sectors depending on the direction the nation's economy heads towards in the next 5-10 years. At present, the uncertainty level is very high so I am yet to identify my future business course, he explains. He has kept all options open and wants to enter businesses that have values. A firm believer in the adage, œlearning never stops, success is not only about creating wealth for him. Letting go of bachelorhood and becoming a father later transformed him as a person, he says. My marriage and the birth of my son has made me become more responsible socially and had me planning for the future, he reveals. Having led quite a privileged life, Rana doesn't have any major regrets and is content with everything god has to offer. </span></div>

	<span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><span style="font-size: 12px;"><span aldine401="" color:="">Golyan was born in Rangeli, Biratnagar and spend his childhood there. After appearing for his School Leaving Certificate (SLC) examinations, he started work at the Shah Industry, one of the units within his family business. I started my career when I was only 16-years-old and became a full-fledged business person by 22, he proudly states. The industry closed down after the establishment of the spinning mill. He remembers his early days at the industry, There were around 600 workers at that time. It was not a smooth ride all along. However, the learning experience there was great and has always helped me. <br />

	<span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><span style="font-size: 12px;"><span aldine401="" color:="">Golyan continued to work through his college days. I used to attend classes in the morning and look after the business mainly during the day, he reminisces. He completed his B com from Mahendra Morang Campus, Biratnagar and has been involved in business full time ever since. He did not find time to pursue further studies. Not that he had the inclination either. Once I was full-fledged into business, I lost interest in studies, he says nonchalantly.</span></span></span></p>

	<span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><span style="font-size: 12px;"><span aldine401="" color:="">Going to cinema was a favourite pastime those days. Golyan recalls that Biratnagar used to be a place where there were no restaurants and clubs. There were limited options for merry-making and hangouts. He chuckles, We used to go to Dharan just to watch movies.His journey as a businessman took a defining turn when his doctor advised him to relocate to a cooler place. He suffered from dry eyes disease. To escape from the scorching heat of Biratnagar, Kathmandu proved to be a cool haven for him. Moving to Kathmandu largely helped business, he reveals. It reaped benefits for him to move to the capital city as a series of activities took place since. First, the establishment of RSM happened. In the subsequent years, Golyan started expanding into other industries and businesses. And, as luck would have it, the businesses turned out to be successful ventures in due time. <br />

	<span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><span style="font-size: 12px;"><span aldine401="" color:="">Establishment of RSM was probably the most proud moment of my life, he happily says. Setting up an industry worth one billion rupees 15 years ago was a massive proposition. Today, Golyan personally has one billion rupees worth of shares in the industry along with his equal partner Shashikant Agrawal. Presently, the industry exports its products to Turkey, Bangladesh and India. Among these countries, India is the largest market with 80 per cent of the total exports ending up there. He says that the thread produced at RSM is supplied to almost all Nepali textile industries. He is particularly pleased that the market prospects have improved appreciably in the last four months. <br />

	<span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><span style="font-size: 12px;"><span aldine401="" color:="">RSM currently has 3000 employees. It has a management team of professionals which takes care of the day-to-day management while Golyan has continued to take interest in the company's future. He reveals, Among all my companies, RSM is very close to my heart as I was attached with the textile business for a very long time. His other unit Shivam Plastic Industry manufactures woven sacks while Dhanalaxmi Synthetics produces threads with melt spinning. Westar Properties, the housing company, has two projects under construction at the moment. The group also has its investment in the banking and insurance sectors. <br />

	<span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><span style="font-size: 12px;"><span aldine401="" color:="">They say slow and steady wins the race. Golyan is a living example. I moved my family business ahead step-by-step. There was no rush and I never expected any overnight miracles, he shares. He says that he credits his success to continuing his father's honest virtues in business and the faith on Goddess Durga. When it comes to human resource management, he believes that trust is the most important aspect. Therefore, he believes in trusting his employees and giving them responsibilities based on their respective capacities. Over 5000 employees work for his various companies. He believes in healthy discussions to mitigate problems. Golyan does not like yes men He reasons, I may be the Chairman but that does not make me perfect. So, everything that I say need not come into effect.He believes that it's not the individual who is important. The company or the institution is more important as the destinies of thousands of stakeholders are attached with it. He believes in enhancing the skills of his employees to develop a sense of ownership in them. <br />

	<span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><span style="font-size: 12px;"><span aldine401="" color:="">He hates the Nepali trend of following successful businesses blindly. In my belief, it is important to study a business meticulously before venturing into it, he suggests. Imitating successful businesses does not guarantee success, working with optimism and dedication does, he says. Golyan painfully recounts the time when he almost left his business on his eldest son's demise. I was shattered and lost all my hopes. I saw no reason to continue. But one of my colleagues reasoned that I don't have the right to leave the livelihood of thousands of workers in lurch,he says. <br />

	<span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><span style="font-size: 12px;"><span aldine401="" color:="">According to Golyan, the four pillars that matter in his life are business, personal life, social life and personal time. I try to balance these as much as possible. I keep myself completely free from all business matters at least one day in a week. That day is for my family, he declares. He also manages 10 to 15 days twice a year for travelling with his family and friends. New Zealand is one of his much loved destinations. He tries to apply this on his employees too. So, he has the provision of forced holidays for them. A holiday rejuvenates people and also helps us realise their importance during their absence, he explains. <br />

	<span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><span style="font-size: 12px;"><span aldine401="" color:="" letter-spacing:="">I love to sleep as much as possible. Sometimes I don't wake up until midday, he jokes. He fondly remembers the days when he used to play badminton and cricket, That was a long time ago. These days, I practice yoga to stay fit. A movie buff, he also enjoys listening to music. Moderately brand conscious, Golyan prefers quality over brand names. At 52, he is already a veteran of 30 years in business. You ask his future plans and he philosophises, I have not looked at day-to-day business for the last 10 years. But I don't intend to retire completely. He wants to begin philanthropy in his son Jayanta's name. He plans to adopt a remote village with a population of 800 to 1200 residents and sponsor their health and education. Instead of giving them money, I will help them become self reliant by providing them with different skills and probably buy their produce,he says. <br />

	<span style="color:#000;"><span style="font-size: 12px;"><span aldine401="" color:="" style="line-height: 115%;">If the pilot project attains success, Golyan plans to expand this model to other villages. I am beginning the project from this year. And I would dedicate time for it just as I do for my industries, he expresses. He added that though it is a difficult and thankless job, he wants to do so for his inner satisfaction. Golyan has no regrets in life except his inability to save his son. He treats his nephews as his own children and wants to see them become successful in life.&nbsp;</span><span style="line-height: 115%; font-family: Wingdings; letter-spacing: 0.05pt;"> <br />

<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span class="A4">V</span><span style="color: black;">isit cc’s home at Manbhawan, Lalitpur, and you are surely to receive a hearty welcome with warm cups of ‘special’ tea grown in his own Kanchanjunga Tea Estate. A well-known name in Nepal’s cooperatives sector, Baskota is buoyed up by the saying “Water the root, enjoy the fruit”. Recuperating from an accident he met with during a recent visit to London, Baskota feels life has given him another chance to serve the nation. A former State Minister for Home Affairs, Baskota, now 68, is no more into active politics. But he is actively involved in the management of various institutions such as Kanchanjangha Tea Estate and Research Center (the first Certified Organic Garden), Panchthar Multiple Campus, Naya Namuna Secondary School, Phidim, and Nepal Organic Foundation. “The work I have been doing for society is my way of doing politics,” he says.</span> <br />
	</span></p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="color: black;">Baskota’s inexhaustible zeal for creativity and active life does not let him feel ‘old’ though he is already in his late sixties. “Age should not have its face lifted, but it should rather teach the world to admire wrinkles as the etchings of experience and the firm line of character,” he shares cheerfully. He takes satisfaction in the fact that he is the founding chairman of National Cooperative Development Board (NCDB), National Cooperative Federation (NCF), and also the president of Himalayan Orthodox Tea Producers’ Association, and the Tea Development Alliance.</span> <br />
	</span></p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="color: black;">Baskota was brought up by his mother at his birthplace, a remote village in Panchthar district. He learnt to read and write through non-formal education in the village itself. “I was only 12 when my mother passed away. It was my brother who guided me and boosted my morale to tread the rocky roads lying ahead in my life,” Baskota reminisces.</span> <br />
	</span></p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="color: black;">Baskota spent his early young days rambling in the wilderness under the serene sky of his village. It was a time of complete freedom for him. Later, as time passed, something inside him urged him to get formal education. He then enrolled at Phidim High School in the district.</span> <br />
	</span></p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="color: black;">“Passing the SLC exam, also known as the Iron Gate, was a challenge. But I did it with ease,” he goes down memory lane. Hale and hearty Baskota takes a balanced diet, desists from eating meat items and meditates every day. He believes that it’s his positive attitude and ardent love for the motherland that make him feel he has miles to go in life. Baskota finds the slow growth of agriculture, purportedly the backbone of Nepal’s economy, distressing. He observes that most of the co-operatives in Nepal are related to agriculture and are thus the best friends of farmers. “It will take a long time to establish the cooperative sector as the real backbone of our economy, if the right action plans are not formulated immediately,” says Baskota.</span> <br />
	</span></p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="color: black;">Baskota joined politics at an early age. Back then in his village, Baskota was doing both teaching and learning simultaneously. Along with venturing into the spheres of politics and business, it was the love for his roots — the birth place - that motivated him to build a school there. At 21, he was included in the voters’ list and was also elected the Village Panchyat Chief. Baskota remembers an important event in life, which has left a deep impact somewhere on his mind. “While pursuing my Bachelor’s Degree, I got rusticated for three years because of my political beliefs. As a result, I had to discontinue my studies,” he flips back an important page of his life. His political path was shaped after he joined the Nepal Student Union (NSU), the student wing of the Nepali Congress. The topsy-turvy ride of his life took an unprecedented turn when he dedicated himself to the Cooperative Movement in the country.</span> <br />
	</span></p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="color: black;">“For me, politics is to make good policies and to work for the welfare of society,” he says. It was in 1996 that he got the post of State Minster for Home Affairs. According to Baskota, it was the seminal role he had played in the drafting of the Cooperatives Act and the acknowledgement of the same by the then Prime Minister Girija Prasad Koirala that landed him the important government position. Late Koirala always encouraged and motivated him to continue his good work, Baskota still remembers.</span> <br />
	</span></p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="color: black;">According to Baskota, the same act governs the cooperative sector even today. “I don’t call the present chaotic political situation a practice of true and good politics,” he admits with a deep disappointment. Baskota’s creativity in work, led him to develop Kanchanjunga Tea Estate (KTE) in 1982. He is proud to claim that the flourishing tea business in the east today was his initiative. Since its establishment, KTE has given jobs to more than 500 local farmer families. Baskota has dedicated 17 long years of his life to the National Cooperative Society (NCS) formed in 1993. He is still actively working as a Past President of NCS. He also founded Nepal Maharshi Vedic Foundation, recently.</span> <br />
	</span></p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="color: black;">Baskota believes that a person’s age is no barrier to work as long as s/he is healthy – mentally as well as physically. Updated with the latest management strategies, he borrows Mahesh Yogi’s words, “For an effective result, we should monitor for four hours and work for two.” He believes that one should be clear about his vision to reach the desired goal. According to Baskota, to start a new business, a manager should be loyal to his duties and employees need to abide by the rules and accomplish given responsibilities on time. “If both the manager and the employee work in equilibrium a good management is definitely possible”, Baskota shares.</span> <br />
	</span></p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="color: black;">Given the nation’s recent chaotic situation, he thinks, every citizen should have peace of mind first. Baskota says that, it is the stereotypical teaching methodology in our schools that makes the curriculum and learning experience boring. His recent trip to London made him realize that, all the learnt knowledge will bear no fruit without a practical education. “On the one hand, we lack enough skilled human resource, and on the other, our talented youth are brain drained,” he complains. Baskota believes that practical education should be given to all citizens. For him resolution is a must to accomplish every duty.</span> <br />
	</span></p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="color: black;">As a very sane piece of advice for the youths, Baskota says; “It’s the youth who carry the thoughts, vision and leadership needed for change. They should hence set their aims in lives at an early age and prepare for every rocky road ahead”. The new generation can learn the importance of patriotism and simplicity from him. Patriot at heart, Baskota wishes to see the nation prosper; and maintains that it is achievable through the development of agriculture sector. “A number of young Nepali talents are abroad at present. If we can bring them back to the country and persuade them to contribute in the field, it will be more fruitful for our economy,” Baskota believes. He also urges the youngsters to start meditating while still young.</span> <br />
	</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="line-height: 115%; color: black;">“I use the lessons from my experience and strongly believe that hard work and sacrifice is a must to climb up every rung of success,” Baskota says. Keeping intact with the zeal while still aging, he hates to waste time idle and instead likes to go through books and to meditate. He says his work, which includes occasional field visits to his various offices, keeps him busy. He loves travelling and has already been to many parts of the country. People close to him call him the ‘Father of Nepal Cooperative Movement’ and it gives him a warm satisfaction.</span></span></p>

	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span myriad="" style="line-height: 115%; font-family: ">Khem Raj Panta’s life took an unexpected turn after he came to Kathmandu in 1990. From his first business exposure with UPS and entering SkyNet in 1992 to starting his own business in 1997, he has come a long way. Today, there is apparently nothing that he is more passionate about and more committed to than business.</span></span></p>
<p class="Default" style="text-align:justify;line-height:10.05pt">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span class="A15">L</span><span style="color: rgb(33, 29, 30);">ooking at him stand tall with responsibilities of a host of companies on his shoulders, it is hard to imagine that he had no plans of becoming a businessman when he was growing up. Executive Chairman of Nepal Skin Hospital Pvt Ltd and Country Manager at SkyNet Worldwide Express, Khem Raj Panta has also held important designations in companies including Qantas Freight, DTDC Worldwide Express and Nepal FM 91.8. “It was accidental”, he bluntly answers to how he turned a businessman. Born in the hills of Gorkha and raised in the plains of Biratnagar, as a young boy, he aspired to hold a government position. The Pantas were not businessmen; business had never run in the family. <br />
	</span></span></p>
<p class="Default" style="text-align:justify;line-height:10.05pt">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="color: rgb(33, 29, 30);">Going down the memory lane, he recalls that his father always wanted him to take up science, particularly either medicine or engineering. However, his life took an unexpected turn after he came to Kathmandu in 1990. He got his first business exposure when he worked with UPS, a global company, for six months. He entered SkyNet in 1992 having cleared an interview and in five years’ time, he became the first person of the company. And then, his long journey of leadership in the field of business began in 1997. Today, there is apparently nothing that he is more passionate about and more committed to than business. <br />
	</span></span></p>
<p class="Pa10" style="text-align:justify;text-indent:14.0pt">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="color: rgb(33, 29, 30);">It seems distressing, having to handle so many responsibilities at once. Panta admits that although it is a tough job, he goes about accomplishing his work with the help of his team and the system behind him. He believes that team building, system building and channeling are crucial aspects of business and management. Although there are no hard and fast rules to his management philosophy, he does live by three words like a mantra “honesty, hard work and commitment”. While he is thankful towards J N Shetty, MD at SkyNet Mumbai, for guiding him, Panta had no godfather to look up to when he entered business. Whatever he has earned and achieved till now, it is due to his hard work and ability. <br />
	</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="color: rgb(33, 29, 30);">He is very committed to his work; and works from 7 am to 10 pm on a normal day. His work demands a lot of travelling across the world and in long flights. When he is travelling, his flight hours are also his prep hours; he uses the time to do his homework for the visiting purpose. One very important characteristic of his is that he worships time and values every minute of the day. Even when he is abroad, he doesn’t </span><span style="color: rgb(33, 29, 30);">spend a day extra than demanded by his work unless he is on a planned vacation. Panta is strictly against wasting time.</span> <br />
	</span></p>
<p class="Pa10" style="text-align:justify">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="color: rgb(33, 29, 30);">For this businessman, his friends and family have always been a strength factor. When asked about important people in his professional and personal life he instantly remembers two other people besides his wife and son: brother-in-law Kiran Acharya and partner Bijay Rijal. Panta’s wife above all is like a backbone to him. Ever understanding and ever loving, she helps him keep calm and be patient in affliction. For 20 longs years, she has always stood by him. “She is a wonderful woman, a wife, a friend and most importantly an advisor to me,” he says. Besides wife Nirmala’s significance in his life, he has another advisor in the family, his 18-year-old son Aashish. Panta believes in the importance of quality education and has always sent his son to the best of schools. Currently, Aashish is pursuing his BBA at GD Goenka World School. <br />
	</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="color: rgb(33, 29, 30);">&nbsp;He listens to his son because for him it is important to keep up with the new generation. With father’s wisdom and son’s freshness, the Pantas share a relationship that stands on friendship within and beyond the family. Panta has begun grooming his son for the business world already. They attend business meetings together whenever his son is free. Some time ago, his son even looked after one of his business ventures for six whole months. Panta sees a potential businessman in his son. He confesses that it is difficult to balance time between family and work, and compromises have to be made sometimes. However, whenever he is with his family he gives his 100 per cent to them, “Saturday is an absolute family day for me” he justifies his claim. Once in a year, Panta and his family also fly to a holiday destination.</span> <br />
	</span></p>
<p class="Pa10" style="text-align:justify">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="color: rgb(33, 29, 30);">Despite the hectic schedule and a number of responsibilities attached to his designations, Panta leads a modern healthy life. He is an Osho follower; and hence he meditates for 30 minutes every day. He also runs and sometimes swims at the club. He is fit and healthy and hence plans to work hard in the coming decade while he still has the oomph of business in his soul. “I don’t want to die working like most Nepalis do”, he says. <br />
	</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="line-height: 115%; color: rgb(33, 29, 30);">After the age of 55, he plans to hand over his responsibilities to a new generation of leaders and retire willingly. Panta has neatly outlined his retirement plan already and shares it enthusiastically. He plans to divide a year into four perfect halves, each for a destination. He plans to spend three months each in Kathmandu, Gorkha and Delhi where his beloved friends are and the remaining three months travelling around the world with his wife.<br />
	</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="line-height: 115%; color: rgb(33, 29, 30);">There were two major turning points in his life. The first one was his association with SkyNet, where he understood what his purpose in life was and the second one was the birth of his son. His son’s birth was like a lucky charm and opened all the doors of opportunities for him one by one. However, time is god to Panta and he credits his respect for time as the main reason for where he stands today. <br />
	</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="line-height: 115%; color: rgb(33, 29, 30);">He has a few simple but powerful messages for the entire new and emerging generation of entrepreneurs - young entrepreneurs should not be involved in politics and young talents should not migrate abroad because if there is one place that has enormous potential for business it has to be Nepal. Finally, Panta says, “I know, the new generation is in a hurry to succeed and it is only natural for them to want so. But, you should understand that there are no shortcuts to success. You have to be patient.”</span></span></p>

&quot;Times New Roman&quot;;mso-bidi-theme-font:minor-bidi;color:#221E1F">eorge Bernard Shaw once said “Some men see things as they are and say why - I dream things that never were and say why not.” Similar has been the attitude of this ambitious businesswoman Seema Golchha throughout. Carving out a niche for herself, she has been making her presence felt in the Nepali business sector. In the male dominated Nepali society, when Golchha decided to join her family business, it was something unusual. Never before had any woman from the Golchha family forayed into business. She confessed that her father-in-law was the one to motivate her to join the business. Ever since she took a bold step toward business, there has been no looking back. </span></p>
<p class="Pa8" style="text-indent:14.0pt">

color:#221E1F">&nbsp;Exploring the lesser known, and rather personal side to Golchha, she reveals to you, her journey from a young, liberal and warm hearted Indian girl to being the daughter-in-law of one of the most reputed business house in Nepal and finally to establishing herself a successful entrepreneur.</span></p>
<p class="Pa8" style="text-indent:14.0pt">
	&nbsp;<span style="font-size:10.0pt;
color:#221E1F">“I always had a smile on my face, she said, recalling her childhood days. Brought up in Lucknow and Dehradun, Golchha had a happy childhood. She completed her schooling from Dehradun and pursued her higher studies in Delhi University. She was always a vivacious and an independent girl. For her, the inspiration to lead an independent life always came from her working mother. Unlike ordinary women thirty years ago, she lived independently in a flat and worked for advertising agencies. <br />

<p class="Pa8" style="text-indent:14.0pt">
	<span style="font-size:10.0pt;
color:#221E1F">However, things changed completely for her when she got married to Shekhar Golchha who belonged to a completely different cultural background. “I was leading a very modern and liberal lifestyle before marriage and hence getting married to a conservative family brought a huge cross-cultural transition in my life,” expressed Golchha. Although it took her some time, she eventually adapted to and adjusted with the new environment that she was placed in back then.</span></p>
<p class="Pa8">
	&nbsp;<span style="font-size:10.0pt;color:#221E1F">Golchha, who has perfectly balanced her personal and professional life, believes that time management is the key to balance in life. Wife of a businessman and a mother of two, she is also a perfectionist. Although it is not possible to score 10 / 10, she, as a mother, a wife, and an entrepreneur, is doing justice to every role with sheer conviction. . Enjoying every moment of the day, she still tries to work out details in whatever she engages. “We should always give our cent percent in whatever we do,” she said. </span></p>
<p class="Pa8">
	<span style="font-size:10.0pt;color:#221E1F">Entering business was intentional for her, as she always had an interest in it. “I am happy being involved in business as it recharges and completes my life in a way,” she said when asked about her professional life. She started her business with a women’s showroom in Durbar Marg. Since then there has been no looking back for her. <br />

<p class="Pa8" style="text-indent:14.0pt">
	&nbsp;<span style="font-size:10.0pt;
color:#221E1F">“Success is important, but it is not everything,” said Golchha. She believes that every step taken towards achieving your goal counts. It doesn’t matter if one succeeds or not, it is important that one should work hard to meet own expectations and goals. When she first joined the family business, a showroom like Samsung Plaza was an innovative idea. It was very rare in Nepal to find such a range of electronics under one roof. Today, 10 years later, she is expanding the exclusive outlet of Samsung electrical appliances across the country. Despite many obstructions like load shedding and strikes, she is also looking to further expand her business by launching two more Samsung Plazas, a Timex Watch outlet and a Bajaj Appliances outlet. She strongly believes that if you have faith in yourself, nothing can stop you and hence she is </span><span style="font-size:10.0pt;mso-bidi-font-family:&quot;Myriad Pro&quot;;color:#221E1F">moving ever onward. </span></p>

	&nbsp;<span style="font-size:10.0pt;
mso-bidi-font-family:&quot;Myriad Pro&quot;;color:#221E1F">She has always held the view that women should be empowered. Hence, most of her employees are young, motivated girls. In her line of business, it is important to understand customers’ temperament because at the end of the day, customers’ satisfaction is what matters most. So, when she is recruiting her employees, academic qualification is not all that she looks for, she also observes their personality. When asked about her management strategy, she shared that it is important to provide employees with space for innovation in order to improve and upgrade the company’s status. It is also important to provide enough opportunity for communication between management and staff. She also makes sure to set an example of dedication, in order to motivate her employees. </span></p>

&quot;Myriad Pro&quot;;color:#221E1F">She is surely dedicated to her work but a trekking enthusiast, Golchha doesn’t forget to take a break every now and then. For her, friends and family are an integral part of her life and she lets her hair down while having fun with them. She believes that socializing is an important aspect of both personal and professional life. She is also an avid book reader. With her life moving back and forth between so many roles of a woman, she still manages to maintain equilibrium in her life. With an amazing life graph and career ladder, she is beauty with not only brains but also balance.</span></p>

color:#211D1E">oung Min Bahadur Gurung had strong faith in making history one day. His parents too had a dream that he will be a great personality of the country in due course of time. It was the major reason behind his parents’ decision to send him to a good school although his was a big 10-member family. Born after five sisters, he was raised as a pampered son in the family and provided with facilities that a son usually gets in the Nepali society. Two younger brothers were born after him. During his early schooling, Gurung was touched by the story about Madam Curie inventing bean size radium after melting 17 tons of stone. Megnath Lamsal, his teacher at high school, left a deep impression on him. The teacher’s lessons motivated him to do well in life and reach greatness one day. “I was very fond of Lamsal Sir and liked his classes much. I developed a strong belief in myself and was committed to work hard for success,” he recalls.</span> <br />

	<span style="font-size:10.0pt;mso-bidi-font-family:&quot;Myriad Pro&quot;;color:#211D1E">Born in Dube, a village in Khotang district, Gurung had schooling up to SLC at different schools nearby. Unlike other young boys of his time, he was very energetic and hardworking. He enjoyed his schooldays even though he had to walk two hours daily to go to the school. Despite being a good student, Gurung failed in the SLC exams. It came as a shock for all the teachers, students and his own family who considered him as a bright student. He didn’t take it as a setback though and tried his best to overcome the failure by studying harder. </span></p>

Had I cleared SLC in my first attempt with flying colors, I would have other ideas about my future course of life and ultimately miss this fantastic business opportunity that I have today. </span></p>

	<span style="font-size:10.0pt;
mso-bidi-font-family:&quot;Myriad Pro&quot;;color:#211D1E">Gurung started helping his family in farming after his intermediate degree. In Bhadra 2031 BS, he started planting rice, harvesting maize and other jobs required by the farming demands. During this period, he fell terribly sick and survived the ordeal somehow. Gurung’s father decided that enough was enough. Until now, he always insisted to keep his dearest son close to him but following the incident, he advised him to go to Kathmandu and study further.</span> </p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:10.0pt;mso-bidi-font-family:&quot;Myriad Pro&quot;;color:#211D1E">Gurung had his first job as a record keeper who recorded attendance of daily wage laborers. He shares, “I was given Rs 400 by my father when I left for Kathmandu so I had to find a job anyhow to sustain.” He was soon hired in Nepal Bank Limited and was given a position in Nepalgunj. However, after two years, he managed to find a posting to Kathmandu and started pursuing a master’s degree shortly afterwards. He would attend college in the morning and work at the bank as his full time job.</span> </p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:10.0pt;mso-bidi-font-family:&quot;Myriad Pro&quot;;color:#211D1E">A permanent job at the bank encouraged him to settle down in life. He married Sabitri Gurung, a girl from his own village who was pursuing her intermediate degree in Kathmandu. Meanwhile, he also started selling goods which built the foundation of his retail business. Gurung later turned his part time retail business as a full time profession when he realized the potential that the business offered. He established Bhatbhateni Cold Store in 2041 and expanded his retail shop on the second floor of the store in due course of time.</span></p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:10.0pt;mso-bidi-font-family:&quot;Myriad Pro&quot;;color:#211D1E">As fate would have it, his store caught fire in 2047 BS and caused him a financial loss of around a million rupees. Gurung says the fire at Bhatbhateni was a turning point for him and he learnt a lesson the hard way to take his business more seriously. Three years later, he established Bhatbhateni Departmental Store. “I am a different type of person who believes in growing plants on rock. It is not possible to stop at a failure when you have a great vision,” he says.</span> </p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:10.0pt;
mso-bidi-font-family:&quot;Myriad Pro&quot;;color:#211D1E">Even today, despite all the success, Gurung consults his wife as before while making business strategies. He remembers the time when he had to invest the same gold in his business that he had gifted to his wife earlier. She joined his business within a few days of delivering their first child Kamana. “It was quite amazing that she could join the store within a short period after the delivery of our first child,” he reminisces. He rues the fact that he finds himself unable to give enough time to his family due to a busy schedule. It is hard to find him relaxing much but when he does so, he listening to music from stalwarts such as Narayan Gopal, Bachchu Kailash and Ani Choying Dolma.</span> </p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:10.0pt;mso-bidi-font-family:&quot;Myriad Pro&quot;;color:#211D1E">Starting his grocery store with an investment of Rs 35,000 in a small single shutter, his business today is worth billions of rupees with five huge outlets in the Kathmandu valley and one in Pokhara. It was dream come true for him when the construction of his four huge supermarkets was completed last year. The construction of supermarkets in Kathmandu was overseen by his wife, son and daughter while he was busy taking care of the construction of the Pokhara outlet. As many as 50 people from his family circle are involved in the business, informs Gurung.</span> </p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:10.0pt;mso-bidi-font-family:&quot;Myriad Pro&quot;;color:#211D1E">He says that support from the people and the facilities provided at the Bhatbhateni outlets have made it a successful supermarket chain. His stores registered overwhelming business during their respective openings. The Bhatbhateni outlet at Pokhara was opened not too long ago and the story there was no different either with thousands of people swarming the store for several days. “We had to cease either the upstairs or downstairs lifts every hour to manage the heavy crowd. There were people coming from Gorkha, Butwal and Lamjung as well,” he recounts.</span> </p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:10.0pt;mso-bidi-font-family:&quot;Myriad Pro&quot;;color:#211D1E">Gurung believes that failures pave paths towards new directions and trigger innovations. Bhatbhateni Supermarket employs 22,000 people currently and Gurung hopes that the group will have 50,000 employees in its ranks in 15 years time.</span> </p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:10.0pt;
mso-bidi-font-family:&quot;Myriad Pro&quot;;color:#211D1E">As part of its corporate social responsibility, the group helped construct an emergency ward having 72 beds at Tribhuvan University Teaching Hospital with a spending of Rs 100 million. Gurung has named the ward after his parents whom he holds in very high esteem. He has also been providing yearly scholarships to two MBBS students, especially the ones who originate from remote villages. “We will all die one day so it is important that we set apart a certain percentage of our earnings for social causes,” he reasons. Gurung thinks it is rather unfortunate that not many people spare a thought for the less privileged.</span> </p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:10.0pt;
mso-bidi-font-family:&quot;Myriad Pro&quot;;color:#211D1E">He plans to spend his retired life as a social worker. “I still believe in doing jobs which others haven’t tried before and hope to work for the well being of the society,” he says. He recommends people to believe in themselves to make it successful in life and be a part of the history.</span> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">
	<span style="font-size:10.0pt;line-height:115%;mso-bidi-font-family:
&quot;Myriad Pro&quot;;color:#211D1E">Gurung dreams of making Bhatbhateni a multinational company and an international shopping hub as well as plans to spread his business all around the world. His passion of expanding Bhatbhateni’s business reflects strongly in his statement, “This has become a part of my body; it pains me if something goes wrong in the company.”<br />

	<br />
	An admirer of Steve Jobs, Binay Bohra believes in living by creativity. He feels proud to be able to give something back to the society through his contribution to the IT sector. A computer engineer by profession, Binay likes to explore the tremendous potential of the Internet. Steve Jobs once said, “Creativity is just connecting things. When you ask creative people how they did something they feel a little guilty because they did not really do it, they just saw something. It just seemed obvious to them after a while.” <br />
	<br />
	Binay Bohra, Managing Director of Vianet Communications Pvt Ltd, one of the leading Internet service providers (ISP) of Nepal finds a connection to the creative forces of cosmos. He sees new creations going on constantly in the universe. He has understood the life’s purpose – to create something new in life. He says, “We are part of the universe where creative energy is in abundance. I have always had a healthy feeling that I must create on my own and do something new.” Looking at his ISP business, he has created a link for people to connect to the vast internet that quenches people’s thirst for information, knowledge and entertainment. Moreover, he has also created employment opportunities for people in his organisation through the Internet services he offers. <br />
	<br />
	Having completed his higher studies in India from Bangalore University in 1995 in Computer Engineering, he returned to Kathmandu and joined Mercantile Communications. His parents had migrated from Darchula, a district in far western Nepal. Bohra says his father, who made a big contribution in the telecommunication sector of Nepal himself, had also inspired him to become a computer engineer. <br />
	<br />
	While working for three years at Mercantile, he developed the confidence to do something on his own. The Internet boom was gradually catching up in Nepal, however, there were few ISPs to cater to the growing demand of the Internet. The knowledge Bohra gained in the classroom was juxtaposed with the experience collected via his work. Vianet Communications was created in 1999 after he joined his hands with his likeminded friends. Ever since the company was conceived, Bohra and the company have been constantly moving towards the vision that was envisaged in the beginning. <br />
	<br />
	Vianet was one of the pioneers to offer dial-up Internet in the Kathmandu valley. The company now offers the Internet through the latest technology such as fibre optics to those who want to get connected to high speed Internet. Likewise, it offered cheap and reliable Internet at a time when slow and costly dial-up and NTC’s leased lines were the only options, claims Bohra. He says his company was also the pioneer in offering the Internet over Wi-Fi in Nepal. Today, he says, his company has the robust network to reach offices and homes everywhere. <br />
	<br />
	Whenever Bohra was asked in his childhood what he wanted to be, he used to say that he aspired to become a scientist. “Though I did not grow up to become a scientist, I am still into a creative field,” he says. He completed his schooling and college from St Xavier’s in Kathmandu. He says he possessed leadership quality since his childhood. Bohra used to be the captain of the football and athletic teams during his school days. “I have always believed in having a leadership role so I was interested in doing something on my own. I had always dreamt that I would be an entrepreneur with specialisation in a certain sector,” he recalls. <br />
	<br />
	Bohra has received a lot of support from his family too. Though his spouse runs a firm of her own, she also helps him in his work. “We have our separate businesses and are entrepreneurs in our own right. We are happy that we are into a creative sector that creates jobs and is an interesting world, similar to the creation going on in the universe,” he says. <br />
	<br />
	Bohra does not exert pressure on his offspring to follow a specific path. He would like to see his son grow into a balanced person. “It is not necessary that he should become a doctor or an engineer. I will support him in whatever he wants to become according to his personal interest. He should have that confidence to do what he wants to do,” he says. <br />
	<br />
	Bohra who is also the President of Internet Service Providers’ Association of Nepal (ISPAN) feels that this is the age of the Internet as our lives revolve around it. According to him, it is the source of educational materials, entertainment and various activities like listening to songs, radio, reading newspapers and magazines, watching TV, shopping, e-payments etc. Therefore, he has further plans on offering the Internet with ease to his customers. “Our aim is to make this service reliable and provide high speed network facilities. We are working on it and will come up with various applications and uses for customers,” he shares. He says that the competition is too tough and ISPs have to compete with the telecom operators too as they are also offering high speed Internet. <br />
	<br />
	He thinks that the current political environment is not favourable for doing business. Nevertheless, he feels nobody should stop working because of the external factors. “It has discouraged those who want to do something on their own. But, we have to go on working at our end,” he says. Being from an IT sector he admires Steve Jobs, co-founder of Apple Inc. Bohra likes his way of working – hearing to his inner soul without caring what others say rather than following somebody else. He considers Jobs as a successful and visionary leader. Similarly, he also admires Mahatma Gandhi as a fighter who overcame challenges. <br />
	<br />
	Bohra believes that management philosophy varies from personto- person and also the nature of projects. He believes that there is no shortcut to success and taking up leadership position requires dedication, understanding and intense involvement in the project. “One must work extremely hard because the world has become so competitive. It’s good to be smart, wealthy and lucky but the most important one is the self-belief and confidence,” he opines. He believes mistakes made could be corrected midway. “Mistakes are our learning opportunities but the focus should always be on the target,” he adds. For Bohra, success is multifaceted. He believes that success cannot be measured with the rise and fall in career only. “A person may have a highly successful business but what if his family life is wrecked? Likewise, a person may work hard and earn a lot of money. But it is of no use if his health does not favour him. So, a balanced life is a must and most importantly, you must do something that satisfies your heart,” he explains. <br />
	<br />
	Bohra thinks that the human resource is the most valuable asset for any organisation. “Leaders cannot perform alone. If a team works as a single entity with the dedication on a single mission without refining human resources and rightly managing and understanding the value of people, it is impossible to achieve success,” he says. In his company, Bohra ensures that he hires better people every time. He thinks that intellect should be the basis of recruitment and a team should not be formed based on recommendations alone. <br />
	<br />
	Bohra thinks that working within the country is the biggest contribution to the society. “We live in a society where we may have been doing some creative work and it might have benefited many. It is also possible that people are inspired and enjoying work because of us. So, working here with our own people is more important” he opines. Bohra wishes to diversify his area of operations and is looking forward to work in newer sectors apart from the IT industry. Similarly, he also wishes to take out more time from his routine work and do something more interesting in life. <br />

	</strong><br />
	Ritu Singh Vaidya, Managing Director at United Traders Syndicate Pvt Ltd (UTS), has enjoyed every role she has stepped into. When she walked on the ramp, she mastered it with her style. When she was on the stage, she cherished the music and touched the listeners’ heart. Now, she is handling the position of a leading business person very well. Model, former Miss India, singer and now a businessperson; Vaidya has perfected the responsibilities she thinks are brought to her by destiny and her dedication in the pursuit of dreams. <br />
	<br />
	<img alt="Ritu Singh Vaidya" border="1" height="362" hspace="5" src="http://newbusinessage.com/ckfinder/userfiles/Images/personality(3).jpg" vspace="5" width="300" /><br />
	<br />
	<br />
	Ritu Singh Vaidya always dreamed to set up her own business although she was at the pinnacle of her modelling career. With twists and turns of her career that were never disappointing for her, she has now climbed up the ladder towards a leading position in one of the leading business houses of Nepal, Vaidya’s Organisation of Industries and Trading House (VOITH). Her working style is ruled by discipline as she was raised in a family with partly business and partly army background. <br />
	<br />
	Vaidya recalls her childhood in Delhi as “nice, pleasant and loving”. She feels fortunate about having pleasurable childhood days. Her grandfathers were in the business sector and were running their family business in present day Pakistan. She says her grandfathers moved to Delhi when she was an eighth grader. She was educated in Delhi and after completing school, Vaidya pursued fashion designing for her higher studies. She is also a BA in Economics and Political Science from Delhi University. <br />
	<br />
	It was obvious for the beautiful and charming Vaidya to be offered a career in glamour and modelling industry. She believes destiny took her into the world of modelling. “I was in class XII when my friends and I participated in the May Queen contest. So, that was the beginning of it.” She was crowned the May Queen title. She actively began modelling after many offers started coming her way. Her journey on the ramp did not stop immediately though. She went to the Miss India contest and grabbed the title that many Indian women dream to achieve – Miss India – in 1991. After winning the title at home, her next target was to win international titles. Vaidya became the fifth runner up in Miss World, second runner up in Miss Asia World and first runner up in Miss India Universe. <br />
	<br />
	“I took it (modelling) on because it just came to me. It happens that things suddenly start working for you and I think they are the natural things to happen because they just come your way,” she says, “But I always had an entrepreneurial spirit in me. I always wanted to establish myself in some kind of business where I felt challenged. I am someone, who likes a routine, discipline and innovativeness.” Vaidya believes she was always inclined towards business. Even during her modelling days, she would dream of getting into some sort of business in the future. “I wasn’t somebody who was going into Bollywood” she says. <br />
	<br />
	Vaidya says she has never been a person who is devoted to only one thing. “When I got into the glamour world, I was also very focused on my studies and about what I was going to do next. Though I was very much enjoying it, I couldn’t see myself turning forty on the ramp,” she explains. <br />
	<br />
	Everything was organised and settled for young Vaidya even at the age of 20. She says she was almost leading a life what people start mostly at their middle ages. She was just 20 when she met businessman Suraj Vaidya in Kathmandu at a charity fashion show organised by him for Bal Mandir. The professional acquaintance grew into love and later to marriage within a matter of years. Vaidya recalls that the initial days of living in Nepal after her marriage was completely different from her earlier days. She says it was a total change in her life, family, career and friends. “The first year of marriage was difficult because I was not used to a lot of things. But my husband made it very easy for me as he was very easy and patient about me even when I went back to Delhi 15 times in 12 months,” she shares. <br />
	<br />
	Vaidya ventured into fashion designing in her initial days in Nepal and worked as a fashion designer for seven years. That was the time when she was also rearing her child. Vaidya stopped designing clothes and dived into her new found passion – singing. She released an album, ‘Sun Zara’ and appeared in her album’s music videos as well. However, she has abandoned her role as a singer as she thinks it consumes a lot of her time and takes her away from her family. “When I released my first album, I really thought I can manage singing simultaneously with my business commitments but later I realised it is not so. For Hindi singing you have to be in Mumbai and be accessible whenever somebody calls you. That was not something I was looking for and desired in my life. Singing for films and doing stage shows is not my cup of tea.” She started taking responsibilities in VOITH when Suraj Vaidya was busy travelling and spending time for larger business responsibilities. <br />
	<br />
	“He had a great ideology on which everybody was moving and that was a great success too. Once he was unwell and had to take rest for treatment. That was when I took up the work,” she says. At present, she is completely looking after UTS and its divisions that deal in Toyota and heavy equipments. Along with it, she occasionally looks after the spa she has set up a few years back. When it comes to working approach, she says, “My approach is very simple. I try to simplify things and believe in a totally centralised command. But jobs are designated to different people and they have a total free hand in what they do. But yes, it has to be totally accountable.” She encourages flow of new ideas from her employees but feels that the final central command has to be strong enough to prevent things going haywire. Vaidya thinks employees are most happy when you let them do the work, give them a good working environment, be ready to listen to their suggestions and at the same time reward them for what they do. Vaidya has a disciplined working style. “Because I am disciplined, a lot of my staff has to be disciplined. They can’t take anything lightly because they know when I say something that needs to be done. I am very focused on making sure that whatever needs to be done, should be done in the given frame of time,” she emphasises. <br />

	<br />
	Vaidya reveals that her organisation is planning to expand into newer sectors like hydropower, hospitality and education. She is trying to consolidate what is already with the organisation along with planning of new ventures. She says, “Hydropower should be there soon as it is already in the pipeline and we are seriously looking into hospitality. Hopefully, we will be coming with new ventures in the next two years if we don’t have external disturbing factors like endless bandhs and political crisis.” Vaidya believes that she has not earned enough money to spend on charities and philanthropic activities. “I believe in doing philanthropy with my own money. I won’t be convinced about it if I am going to throw somebody else’s money and call it a charity. If I can do well and manage to spare money from my earnings; that is the right kind of charity that I would want to do.” <br />
	<br />
	She thinks she is very compartmental and does not like to mix her personal and professional life together. So, she never takes her office to home. “My time is totally devoted to home when I am home. Similarly, when I am in the office, I give all the time to my office works,” Vaidya reveals. Evenings are for her son and husband while she reserves her morning time usually for exercising. A strong believer in destiny, Vaidya is very satisfied with what life has brought to her. She takes her life as it comes and is ready for wherever it leads to. Optimistic in nature, one shouldn’t be surprised to find her trying new things, ventures and passions in the days to come. Her well wishers shouldn’t be astonished to see her in a completely new avatar not too long in the future. <br />

	<strong>PERSONAL SIDE <br />
	</strong><br />
	<br />
	<strong>Take on success:</strong> I am a very happy content person. Nevertheless, the day I do not want to do anything more, I would think that I am dead. From that point of view, there is a lot more to do. <br />
	<br />
	<br />
	<strong>Planning a holiday:</strong> I like things to be done perfectly and neatly. I make sure I do a lot of research on wherever I am going and know the places so that I won’t miss what I want to see and what we are going to do. I like my travel to be organised right from my ticketing and stay to every itinerary and the places where we are going. <br />
	<br />
	<br />
	<strong>Brand consciousness:</strong> If something is nice it does not need to be branded. I believe in being comfortable and wear what I think looks best on me. <br />
	<br />
	<br />
	<strong>Secret of beauty: </strong>Fitness is something I really believe in. You should be very fit because body is the vehicle that carries you. So you have to take care of it. <br />
	<br />
	<br />
	<strong>Spending leisure time:</strong> Reading and listening to music. I read more of philosophies and autobiographies. I love Indian classical music and mostly listen to Hindi music and instrumental and for English, I like jazz and more soulful songs. <br />
	<br />
	<br />
	<strong>Favourite pastimes: </strong>I love to sing and do gardening and am passionate about my house. Therefore, I love cleaning on my off days. <br />
	<br />
	<br />
	<strong>Better mother or a better boss: </strong>I try to justify every role - a good mother, good wife, good house keeper and a good business person. <br />
	<br />
	<br />
	<strong>Favourite Travel Destination: </strong>Paris among all because it is the most romantic and artistic city and also Venice. Turkey was also a very nice place where we went recently and Russia turned out to be a pleasant surprise. <br />
	<br />
	<br />
	<strong>Sporty indulgence: </strong>I used to be a badminton champion in my school. I adored playing volleyball and basketball but now I am more into gymming. <br />

<p>
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><img align="left" alt="presonality" border="1" height="288" hspace="10" src="http://newbusinessage.com/ckfinder/userfiles/Images/rana.jpg" style="margin: 10px; padding: 10px; width: 222px; height: 288px;" vspace="10" width="222" />Shreejana Rana is one hotelier who distinguishes herself from many others in a variety of respects. As Director CSR and R&amp;D of Hotel de lâ Annapurna, which is doing reasonably well as a hospitality entity, she believes,Survival is not enough, we need to get better. This very go-getter attitude of hers has resulted in the hotel's massive renovation and upgradation endeavours of late. I am working hard and giving it all I have to ensure that my hotel lives up to its much revered tagline No. 1 Address in Kathmandu, she confides. Rana thinks it is best to take her chances nowbring back the glory of yesteryears and make a premium 5-star property out of the hotel that it once was, rather than wait endlessly hoping for perfect conditions to make investments.</span></p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Born to Late Kiranendu Malla and Late Kendra R L Malla, she lost her father when she was barely two-years-old. Rana credits her mother, widowed at the young age of 21, for single-handedly raising her younger brother and herself. She says, My mother's courage, hard work and the love she bestowed upon us, despite numerous challenges, have inspired me to respect and uphold family values.While admitting that she had a privileged upbringing which included the best schooling one could think of, Rana led a simple life with plenty of values and discipline her family instilled in her. In those days, rules were made by the parents and never questioned, she elucidates.</span></p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:12px;">An alumnus of St Mary's High School in Jawalakhel, she finished high school from Cambrian Hall, one of India's premier private schools located in Dehradun. Immediately afterwards, she got an opportunity to train with the ITC Welcome Group for five years in the early 1990s. And it was during her learn-onthe- job stint with the ITC when she came across Kapil SJB Rana, a dashing hotel heir who had just returned from England after completing his studies. I helped him get acquainted with Nepali customs as he had practically lived his entire life abroad and knew little about Nepal,she blushes reminiscing her early courtship days. As fate would have it, she was to marry him in due course of time. My family was happy about it and supported my decision wholeheartedly,she shares.</span></p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:12px;">A very ambitious person, by her own admission, Rana also has a soft corner which has led her to being a social entrepreneur. She is a firm believer in empowering women through entrepreneurship and an ardent supporter of fight against heart diseases. While she believes that success is absolutely important and intends to leave no stone unturned to achieve it, she also has the heart to think about people who are less fortunate and wants to give back to the society. Early into her professional career, she dabbled as a fashion entrepreneur with her boutique Image Fashion House at Durbarmarg.</span></p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:12px;">We were involved in organising the 1st Miss Nepal pageant and managed costumes and choreography part of the event,she tells excitedly. Being an emotional person since a young age, social work came naturally to Rana. She is associated with a number of organisations to help fulfill her social responsibilities. Her social undertakings include associations with Jayanti Memorial Trust (JMT), Women Entrepreneurs Association of Nepal (WEAN), SAARC Chamber Women Entrepreneurs Council (SCWEC), Association of St Maryâ's Alumnae Nepal (ASMAN),</span></p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Burn Violence Survivors Nepal (BVS-N) and Federation of Women Entrepreneurs Association of Nepal (FWEAN) among others. I believe in getting women trained and educated to empower them rather than spoiling them with cash money. It is more important to guarantee how money gets utilised, she says. And then adds, If corporate entities in Nepal are only seen making money but not giving back anything to the society, it will be difficult to survive in the long run. As the gap between haves and havenots widen further, social tensions that Nepal already suffers from will reach an unprecedented high. Having lost her father at a time when she was just about starting to know him, left a deep impact on Rana's psyche.</span></p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Hence, she wants to make sure that her two children 13-year-old daughter Keshya Rana and 6-year-old son Satyajot Rana receive the best parentage, My husband and I want to give them the best of both parents and family values. She aspires to give her children quality education and exposure so that they can grow up as capable individuals and stand on their own feet. They must equip themselves and prove their worth. I don't want them to take the family legacy for granted, she elaborates. Rana further assures that Keshya, a boarder of all-girls Downe House School at Berkshire in England, and Satyajot, a student of British Primary School in Kathmandu, will be free to chart their own career courses and won't be pressurised to join the family business. While agreeing that she is very content as a person, Rana wishes her mother was alive today to see her treading a successful trail.</span></p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:12px;">How I wish I could spend more time with her,she gets a tad emotional. Growing up in a close knit family and a comfortable set up, she has never let her affluent background go to her head. She philosophises, I have been very fortunate with my wants and desires so it has been smooth sailing all along with no major regrets whatsoever. A house-proud person, she sees to it that her children eat at home whenever they are around. She believes that her husband, as a thinker, is the right kind of motivation she has in life,He has always been my backbone and encouraged me to move ahead. Just when I thought I knew her well enough by now,</span></p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Rana narrated an anecdote to me, which she says was an eye-opener of sorts for her.Due to my penchant for seeking women rights, my husband once wondered if he has deprived me of anything in life. It made me wake up to a realisation that I need to be more sensitive towards people who are dearest to me, she recounts. A complete believer in putting her time to good use, Rana signs off on a defining note,I have to constantly work towards ensuring that I am worth my being which makes it all the more important for me to have my own identity.&nbsp;</span></p>',

	<span style="font-size:12px;"><img align="left" alt="personality" border="1" height="214" hspace="5" src="http://newbusinessage.com/ckfinder/userfiles/Images/hero1.jpg" style="width: 181px; height: 214px;margin:10px;padding:10px;" vspace="5" width="181" /></span></p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:12px;">The entire business community is yearning for a favourable investment climate. Each and every business house and enterprise is waiting for the moment that is unlikely to arrive anytime soon. Sandeep Sharda, the Director of Sharda Group, one of the largest business houses of Nepal, is not pessimistic though about the situation but prefers to play it safe like his peers in the business community. He says he is not so comfortable in venturing into new projects and making any significant moves other than keeping the current ventures alive.</span></p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:12px;">The conglomerate has interests in manufacturing and trading of industrial goods to consumer durables and nondurables. The journey of Sharda Group began with garment trading almost 100 years ago. Real success of the group began after Shardaâ€™s great grandfather established a rice mill at Lahan in 1948. The success of the company began with this very business. Sharda has been involved in the family business since his 18th birthday. Being the eldest son in the family, he has given his all to take the family business ahead. Today, the group has an annual turnover of more than US $ 150 million.</span></p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Pioneer Carpet Industries, Shangrila Housing, Bajra Shangrila Residency, Infratech and Shivam Cement Industries are some of the companies Sharda oversees that are either established by him individually or under joint ventures. Born in an industrial family, doing business was in his blood and during his school days, he dreamt of having his own business.</span></p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><img align="middle" alt="personality" border="5" height="243" hspace="4" src="http://newbusinessage.com/ckfinder/userfiles/Images/1stof.jpg" style="margin:10px;padding:10px;" vspace="4" width="300" /></span></p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:12px;">A television set used to be the object of desire those days, he says. So, I wanted to import and sell gadgets like TVs and VCRs, he adds. Sharda was pursuing his college degree in Kolkata when he had to return back to Nepal since his father was unwell. His brothers were young and studying abroad. So, being the eldest son, he had the responsibility to take care of his father and the business. Sharda successfully took up the responsibilities on his shoulders and became occupied. In the bargain, he could not pursue his education further than the bachelor level. Sharda began his career as a business person in the early 1990s.</span></p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:12px;">The lucrative returns from carpet trading lured him to indulge further in the trade. He says the returns and travel opportunities created by carpet trading made him choose this sector. His first venture, now named Pioneer Carpet Industries, was a success for young Sharda as the carpet industry was booming and its export was at the peak. He claims, I became one of the largest exporters in Nepal and was felicitated with numerous awards by the government including Commercially Important Person within seven to eight years. His success in carpet trading inspired him to venture into many other businesses in the future. After Pioneer Carpets, he started importing reconditioned cars from Japan in 1994 which, unfortunately, did not yield profits to him. â€œI believe in destiny and I thought it was not meant for me so I dropped the project,' he admits nonchalantly. Sharda prefers joint ventures. He explains, You cannot think and do everything on your own. It's good to have likeminded people with whom you can share your ideas and visions and produce something great.'In partnership with his close friends, he has set up housing projects like Shangrila Housing and Bajra Shangrila and the largest cement industry of Nepal, Shivam Cement, which is soon going to begin operations.</span></p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Living in a joint family where every member is passionate about business, decisions are made jointly. He says, 'Nobody decides alone in our family, we talk to each other, share ideas and discuss in detail before reaching any decision.' Sharda believes that the business focus should be on ensuring a good turnover. He suggests that an aggressive attitude does help achieve business goals. 'Where there is an opportunity for profit, there will be a chance of making loss too,' he says. Sharda recommends aspiring entrepreneurs to be practical and believes everything can be achieved with hard work, dedication and by setting a clear goal. According to him, there are no alternatives to sincerity, honesty and punctuality which are essential for registering success.</span></p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Even though success in any business is determined by profit and turnover, he opines that success is not only about making a huge amount of money. He philosophises, 'Success is also about giving back to the people in the society in the form of employment or offering them the best products and services with honesty and sincerity. There are so many other things that are much valuable than money itself.' Sharda trusts his colleagues much and believes in assigning appropriate roles to people working with him. He maintains a close relationship with his employees and keeps himself updated about everything. 'I talk to each person every day, talk to the team leaders and get reports and feedback,' he tells. He likes to maintain a distance between his personal and professional lives. He spends around nine hours for his work and prefers to have after hours and weekends for his family and kids. 'I have two wonderful children and it is good to see them growing up. The moments I spend with my family are more fun than my work but business is my profession and I love running it, he proudly states. He also loves to spend time with friends, listen to music, watch movies and attend parties when possible.</span></p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Likewise, he likes to travel and considers himself fortunate to have travelled many countries for his vacations and business trips. Sharda is also involved in philanthropy and is an active member of Kathmandu Metro Round Table 4, an international organisation. Our slogan is Freedom through education and we build school buildings in various parts of Nepal as well as sponsor needy children through fund raising,â€ he says.&nbsp;</span></p>

Doing business is a very challenging proposition at the moment so I am just giving continuity to my current ventures, he shares. He dreams of achieving the kind of success which he thinks he has not tasted yet. And that's precisely why he prays for a suitable business environment as soon as possible.&nbsp; <br />

	<img align="right" alt="" border="1" hspace="5" src="http://newbusinessage.com/ckfinder/userfiles/Images/golcha.jpg" style="width: 339px; height: 589px; margin: 10px; padding: 10px;" vspace="5" />Young , dynamic and a businessman at heart, Hemant Golchha is the Executive Director of Golchha Organisation, a leading corporate house of Nepal with a nearly 100 year long history. He is one of the successful young entrepreneurs who dreams success for his ventures and goes about achieving them. Ram Lal Golchha, the great grandfather of Hemant Golchha, sowed the seeds of Golchha Organisation almost a hundred years ago. He started the business with exporting jute from Nepal to industries in India. The business gave him lucrative returns and inspired to venture into other projects. Golchha says that his great grandfather had played an important role in establishing the first industry of the nation&nbsp; Biratnagar Jute Mill. Ram Lal Golchha established his own jute industry followed by steel industries. </p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
	 </p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
	He never looked back and a perpetual growth always followed the Golchhas. Hemant Golchha is a fourth generation businessman and his five younger brothers have also joined the business. He has put his efforts with new vision and thoughts to steer the family business in new areas. He has the promise to lead the organisation with the same dignity and success that his earlier generations had achieved. Golchha grew up in a close-knit joint family and his childhood was not completely different than any other child's. He recalls having fun during the days when relatives gathered at home for festivals. He says, It was a lot of fun and I enjoyed growing up in a joint family. We used to have a good time with school friends as there was nothing to worry about. He would visit Biratnagar for festivals where half of his family members were living. </p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
	 </p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
	Despite being from a privileged family, he was taught to be honest, humble, simple, truthful and unpretentious about being wealthy. Our modest ways made sure that the family enjoyed a certain level of respect in the community. We never ran businesses solely for the purpose of making money, says Golchha. Golchha completed his schooling from St Xavier's School at Jawalakhel and then attended St Joseph's College of Commerce in Bangalore for his intermediate and undergraduate degrees. He regrets that he could not pursue a master's degree once he started shouldering business responsibilities. He recommends youngsters to complete studies before joining business. </p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
	Once you get involved with a business, it is difficult to find time, he reasons. After returning from Bangalore, he spent around two years training with various industries in Nepal and Australia and joined his family's business in 1992 at the age of 24. G o l c h h a w a s g i v e n t h e responsibility of managing Koshi Metal, a tin container manufacturing industry in Biratnagar. To his credit, he successfully made it a profitable proposition from being a loss bearing industry. In his much younger days, he aspired to be like his great grandfather. </p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
	I always wanted to be like him and follow the path he has shown&nbsp; the path of integrity, dedication, honesty and no compromise between business and hard work, he explains. Vijay Mallya, a celebrity businessperson from India inspired him to live life king size and enjoy the wealth earned from business. It is not a bad thing to enjoy our earnings. He was one of my idols during my college days because of his lifestyle, says Golchha. He believes he was destined to be a business person since he was born in a business family. Everything moved gradually in the direction it was supposed to move and entering the business was his obvious goal. Golchha's maternal grandfather and uncle were into film making which has ignited a desire in him to turn a filmmaker some day. I have not thought about making movies as a profession but only as a hobby. I will definitely make a movie some day, he states enthusiastically. </p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
	He was also active in motorsports during his college days that speak volume for his versatility. He asserts even if he was not born in a business family, he would have still pursued a career in business. Though, of course, he credits his family for what he is today and acknowledges that his business lineage made his job that much easier. Golchha's career that began with container manufacturing continued with added responsibility in other sectors as well. He was assigned to lead Shree Ram Sugar Mill in Rautahat since 1994. He made a historic move in the family's business by making inroads into remittance, tourism and housing sectors that were never part of business with Golchha Organisation. Equal to 25 per cent of Nepal's GDP is received in the country as remittance and another 25 per cent is from travel and tourism. If you do not have a presence in the areas that are equal to some 50 per cent of the nation's GDP, you cannot call yourself a large business house. This is what influenced my decision to venture into these areas, he says. Hulas Remittance has become one of the largest Western Union agents and figured among top ten money transfer companies in the country within five years of its commencing operations. </p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
	<br />
	Golchha started a travel and tour company last year, Travel World Experiences, which focuses on inbound tours. He is optimistic that it too will prove to be a successful venture in due time. Meanwhile, he also decided to make a foray into the real estate sector in association with a few friends which resulted in the establishment of Shangrila Housing. Golchha believes that maintaining a leading position largely depends on performance. He says, You might do very well one year but you may not do so well the next. He is dedicated and focused to make sure that his businesses attain success and has no desire to hog the limelight. I want my projects to be more recognised than myself. My total joy lies in the success of my business ventures and the positions they hold in the market. Travel opportunities that come as part of doing business is one of the most charming aspects, he says.<br />
	<br />
	I also enjoy being at my office and like working with the team members who are more like my friends, he states. The financial crunch being experienced by the economy worries him a great deal and this is one aspect he does not like about doing business. With a very forthright vision about doing business, he philosophises, If I don't enjoy doing a particular business, I will rather do something else. Golchha believes that employees are the soul of a company and having a good team is essential for its success. If you compromise while putting together a team, your business will never succeed. We are only entrepreneurs and without a good team, we cannot do everything on our own, he says. He is of the opinion that it is important to provide good remuneration and environment for motivating the human resource. He says, It is vital to give people a sense of belonging.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
	<br />
	He prefers to decide from the heart while dealing with colleagues, employees and customers. A workaholic during the initial days of his career, he has now changed his working style somewhat due to added family responsibilities. He gives a lot of time to his family and returns home early to spend quality time with his two children. He also plans a holiday every year with his family to explore a new destination. Likewise, he also takes out time for his friends and likes to hang out with them at coffee shops. Golchha likes to watch entertaining movies and listen to Hindi music during his free time and also plays games with his kids. He is quite a party animal and usually spends his Friday evenings at different parties booked by friends. He hits the gym regularly and runs for around half an hour every day. He has a long list to do before he dies. Going on a long road trip from Kathmandu to Europe via Iraq, Iran and the exotic lands, is one of them.</p>',

<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Gyanendra Bhakta Joshi, Managing Director of Swift Air, is determined to touch the sky with his dream project. It is his passion for aircraft and tourism that drove Joshi to set up his own airline. He says he decided to venture into the airline sector to set a milestone in the aviation market.<br />

</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Once on the day of Vijaya Dashami, Gyanendra Bhakta Joshi's elder brother blessed him that he would own an airline one day. While working with Skyline Airlines that is not in existence today, Joshi secretly wished he would have a company of his own. His dream got a new life after meeting Bishnu Prasad Khadgi, now his friend and business partner.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><br />
	</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Joshi is Managing Director (MD) of Swift Air Nepal Pvt Ltd, a newly established domestic airline. Swift Air is planning to commence its operations from October. He said that the company is bringing in two aircraft in first phase. Of these two, the first one is to arrive in October. Joshi, enthusiastic about making his dream project come alive, is spending day and night just to make sure that his dream is realised.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><br />
	</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">It was in the alleys of Ason that Joshi wandered around as a child. Though his ancestors were from Bhaktapur, his grandfathers moved to Kathmandu. He went to St Xavier's School Godavary and later transferred to Ananda Kuti Vidyapeeth at Swayambhu, where he completed his schooling. He credits St Xavier's for making his academic base strong. Joshi graduated in Commerce from Shankar Dev Campus.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><br />
	</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">His family had a hardware store at Ason. Joshi's father and grandfathers had dedicated their life entirely to business. But his uncles took to the service industry. Joshi followed their footsteps and landed in the tourism sector.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><br />
	</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">He began his career from assistant level in Everest Express Tours and Travels around 25 years ago. That was my first job and I was paid Rs 400 a month, he recalls. In the following years, he worked in Pristine Travels, Tiger Tops Resort and even USAID. Then, I entered the aviation sector with Skyline Airlines in a managerial position, he shares his journey to the airlines business. He has even worked as Sales Manager with GMG Airlines of Bangladesh. I like this sector, so, now I am fully into it, says Joshi. He says his career in the tourism, travel and airlines helped him develop a passion for these areas. Joshi reveals, he is obsessed with aircraft and often visits websites of Boeing and Airbus to update himself with the latest developments and innovations. Now, I have my own aviation company because of that passion, he boasts. Joshi is proud that he has made his brother's blessings become a reality.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><br />
	</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Joshi counts Skyline's Executive Director Dorje Sherpa as his aviation guru. Whatever I have learned, I learned it from him. I express my gratitude to him for what I have become today, he acknowledges. The aviation know-how did not easily make him the MD of Swift Air. Joshi's hard work, dedication and struggles have paid off.&nbsp;</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><br />
	</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">It was three years back that Joshi had thought of setting up an airline and he even started working towards that. Unfortunately, it did not turn into reality. After one and a half years, he met Bishnu Prasad Khadgi who is now Executive Chairman of Swift Air. With one year of homework they received AOC (Air Operator's Certificate).&nbsp;Joshi's two sons who are living overseas are happy to know about their father's venture.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><br />
	</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Khadgi is his only business partner now. Though they had targeted to fly from January 2011, they are now planning for an October launch. Cost is too heavy as it requires setting up offices in every destination. However, this also creates job opportunity in every destination we reach. I feel proud to give employment to more people, he says.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><br />
	</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Joshi says his company will have around 70 staff members in the beginning. According to Joshi, good incentives and listening to their complaints will motivate staff. He feels that boss is not always right. Joshi thinks staff is the asset of a company. I advise and assist my staff as and when required. I will treat all my staff equally, he shares his human resource management principle. He believes in giving opportunity to new comers too.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><br />
	</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Joshi does not believe in interfering much in the office management. Although, he wants the line of communication maintained.We just want to know what employees are doing. They must also feel that they are working for their own company and we believe they will. When the company prospers, they will prosper too, he opines.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><br />
	</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Joshi does not have much to complain about the aviation policy of Nepal. However he is dissatisfied with air traffic problems. He urges the government to find a solution as soon as possible. He sees a good future and market prospect for the travel industry. He reveals this is one of the reasons behind establishing his airline business. He observes that the tourism sector is growing more every year and he wishes it to boom in the future. According to Joshi, aviation industry is doing well. He says, We established the company with the motto: Let's be a part of aviation team in Nepal.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><br />
	</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Joshi has already thought of expanding the business in the future. However, he and Khadgi do not have plans to do it within two years. They want to first sustain in the competitive market. After two years, we will go for expansion,he discloses.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><br />
	</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">I am more focused on my dream project, he says with a touch of grit. At least 12 hours of his day is spent in work. Joshi says he gets time for his family only during mealtime. However, on Saturdays, when he is mostly on leisure, he loves to go on a drive with his wife. Apart from that, his free time is spent meeting with relatives, staying at home, watching TV or listening to music. He does not usually travel but he promises to do so as his new venture will require him to travel. At times, Joshi feels lonely when his sons are not with him. He says being away from sons have become his part of life. Joshi lives with his wife at Sitapaila.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><br />
	</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Joshi does not have regrets about his career. He feels he is happy with what his life has given him. I have settled down and I possess everything I need, he expresses contentment. The only regret he has from his life is that he could not save his mother who was suffering from cancer. He took her to the best hospitals in Mumbai and Delhi but she could not be saved. That was the saddest part in our life: for me and my family. It has been almost 15 years, but still I feel like crying when I remember those times, he gets sentimental.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><br />
	</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Joshi's life is closely knit with his profession and his dream project.&nbsp;His wishes, his dreams are associated with his newly established company. I just want to see Swift Air growing.&nbsp;The more it grows, the more people will be employed. And, I wish we could add more aircraft to the fleet, he says.</span></div>

		Moti Lal Dugar, 65, believes he is the most fortunate person to be born in a business family. It takes a little more than a hint of luck to take an already established business house to the next level of success. Dugar is an heir to 127 years old business legacy of the Dugar Group.<br />

<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 14.15pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Dugar is now Chairman of TM Dugar Group that has a wide array of interests ranging from banking, hydropower, automobiles, agro solutions, life insurance, FMCG products, agro based industries, consultancy to automobiles, among others. He is also Chairman of Sunrise Bank Ltd and Gurans Life Insurance Co Ltd, two public limited companies promoted by TM Dugar Group with some friends. Dugar says he does not like to be involved in any politics of business and never wished to be a front runner in any association. However, he feels it is okay to be associated with those forums which are directly related to his business and trade. He is the Treasurer of Nepal-USA Chamber of Commerce and Industry and Forum of Nepalese Banks.</span></div>

<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 14.15pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Dugar was born and educated in Biratnagar. He went to Adarsha Vidyalaya, a school that has produced a number of prominent entrepreneurs and politicians. He received education till BCom at Mahendra Morang College. The Dugars were one of the well-off families even during those days. He recalls the range of luxuries available at his home those days bullock cart, horses, maids and servants. During his college days, Dugar used to ride a Honda 250cc motorcycle imported from Japan. He remembers the first family car a Land Rover. During his student days, he was one of the good students in class though he never stood among the top three. Sport was not his cup of tea either. However, as a child, he was fond of traditional children's games like marbles and <i>dandi biyo</i> among others.</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 14.15pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;">

	</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 14.15pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">He was in his early teens when he began working in his family business. At the age of around 17, he took up full responsibility and started looking after some of his companies. At that time, Dugars were in a joint family and living in Biratnagar. His elder Brother Tola Ram Dugar was looking after the business after their father died. After Tola Ram Dugar passed away in May 2011, Moti Lal has taken over the lead of the TM Dugar Group. Moti Lal was just 11 when his father passed away. Young Dugar began his career at the textile shop. Gradually, he started visiting industries and understood the knots and bolts of handling a business. He took up the responsibility from keeping accounts to making contracts, looking after exports, export-import contracts and even LCs. The initial business of the Dugars was textiles and agro products. The business was later expanded to jute export, steel factory, rice mills and others.</span></div>

<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 14.15pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">The process of expansion in fact never stopped. In the same course, the family shifted to Kathmandu. The family business was sector-wise divided among four brothers. Among those, Moti Lal got the automobiles business for which he was working since the beginning. It has been four decades since he began working in this sector. Now, he is also a specialist in automobile, banking and insurance. He is planning to venture into hydropower. The Dugar group has always been the leading industrial group of Nepal. Dugar is content with the growth and development of the company. He says, â€œOur family always aimed at taking the business to next level. So far, we are satisfactorily moving ahead. We are successful in maintaining the leadership position in every business we ventured into.He adds that his company has been successful in sticking to its principle. Maintaining the status achieved in the course of 127 years is what Dugar feels is a matter of satisfaction and an achievement in itself. </span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 14.15pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;">

	<span style="font-size:12px;">He feels he inherited the success that was accomplished by his parents and senior family members. He gives the credit of his company's success to them, especially his eldest brother late Tolaram Dugar whom his regards as high as his father not only as elder brother. More importantly, he feels he inherited the trust and belief of Nepali people in his group. He expresses pleasure to be born as a business person. He does not have any regrets about having the career that he thinks was destined for him. According to Dugar, job satisfaction is the most pleasing aspect of the business.</span></div>

	<span style="font-size:12px;">Dugar claims that honesty is the everlasting principle of the Dugar group. Dugar explains, <img align="right" alt="intreview" border="1" height="331" hspace="10" src="http://newbusinessage.com/ckfinder/userfiles/Images/sep-per1.jpg" style="margin:10px;paading:10px;" vspace="10" width="400" />â€œHigh degree of honesty must be maintained. Customers should not be cheated. A business can never sustain without customer's trust. The group has been working with such vision and belief.Dugar believes clients are the incarnation of Goddess Laxmi Goddess of wealth and she should not be cheated. He says thanks to such principles, the group is valued high in the market today.</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 14.15pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;">

	</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 14.15pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">For Dugar, profit, loss or big money is not the measure of success. He says, There are many other groups who have more money than us. We began from scratch and achieved this status. We are satisfied with this. Our business image has never been lower than others and that has been a matter of pride for us. He identifies success in the manner the people recognise and trust the group. Profit and loss is something that keeps changing but the recognition does not and it will lead to profit and stability of the company. He feels his next generation has a ready path shown by the long history of the group. They don't have to work too hard. They just need to add cherry on top, he says. Fifth generation of the Dugar family his grandchildren will soon join the business after their education.</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 14.15pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;">

<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 13.9pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">The group that was initially into the food grain and agro based industries stepped into the service industry through banking and insurance around five years back. Dugar sees the future of Nepal in three areas hydropower, tourism and agriculture. He says Nepal cannot compete with India and China with a high cost of production by subsidising industries with a bundle of discounts and waivers. Although the Dugar group does not have any plans to venture into tourism sector, it will soon be developing hydroelectricity projects. The group is planning to develop more than 170 Megawatts of hydroelectricity in the near future. Pan Himalaya Energy Pvt Ltd, Global Hydro Power Associate Pvt Ltd and Numbur Himalaya Hydropower Pvt Ltd have been established by the group for&nbsp;tapping hydropower potentials in the country. He thinks hydropower is a money-making industry that has huge export potentials although it is a capital-intensive sector. He says hydropower is liked by the world for its environmental benefits and sustainability.</span></div>

<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 13.9pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">On Nepal's failure to develop hydroelectricity sector despite huge potentials, Dugar says, All political parties must have genuine commitment for the development of the nation. Everyone must shed his leg-pulling attitude and should respect others' ideas if they benefit the nation. Such massive projects will not be possible without foreign investors. They must be welcomed anyhow. Investment worth billions of rupees will not come just with phoney speeches.</span></div>

He says human resource is the real capital of any company. So, we provide handsome salary as motivation. People working here have a distinct and prestigious life, he says. He reveals that employees are quite steady with the companies. He shares numerous examples of people working in the group for as long as three generations.</span></div>

	<span style="font-size:12px;">Dugar says he does not have uber luxury in life. He likes to lead a simple life and does not have any luxurious demands. Dugar gets up at six in the morning and goes to health club. For remaining healthy, he exercises everyday and is conscious about food habits. After having breakfast, he goes to his office between 10 and 10:30 in the morning and returns home at around 8 pm. He does not have much interest in social parties and rather feels annoyed if he has to frequently attend them. He thinks partying more than once a week is too much. He loves watching television, chatting with family, reading newspapers and listening to music. These are his favourite pastimes. He does not work on Saturdays. His mornings and evenings are dedicated to his family.</span></div>

	<span style="font-size:12px;">When he has to suggest anyone who wants to follow his footsteps, he says: Do anything with dedication, focus and honesty. Do not dive into anything seeing someone else making profit. It is wise to focus on expanding what you already have. The competition is so tough so you must be careful while investing. You may lose your hard earned money. In this regards, I am quite conservative.</span></div>

	<span style="font-size:12px;">When it comes to charity and philanthropy, he believes in building hospitals rather than building a temple. When we have some problems (health) we need hospitals as temples cannot cure us. Building a hospital is more spiritual than a temple. It does not mean I am atheist but I believe more people will benefit from a hospital,â€ he opines. He adds hospital is for service while a temple is for satisfaction. A hospital built by his late elder brother has been handed over to Koshi Zonal Hospital in Biratnagar.</span></div>

	<span style="font-size:12px;">Born in a farmers family, Ramesh Maharjan is known as a successful entrepreneur who has taken his business to international levels. His jewellery business has expanded to USA. Today, he is Chairman of Maharjan Group that owns five companies - Nepal Diamond Company, RB Diamond Jewellers, Nenergy International, NB Nepal Builders and Maya Foundation. These companies are active in manufacturing, export and retail business of diamond jewelleries, energy, construction and even social welfare.</span></div>

<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 14.15pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">He has three jewellery stores in USA. He has recently diversified his business through the Maharjan Group that he established some years ago. R B Diamond Jewellers is the manufacturer, wholesaler and exporter of diamond jewelleries while Nepal Diamond Company deals in diamond and gold. Nenergy International is working in the area of developing hydroelectricity. Similarly, his company NB Nepal Builders is into the housing sector while through Maya Foundation he is involved in&nbsp;welfare of differently-abled people. Likewise, Maharjan is also Chairman of Nepal Gems and Jewellery Association and is associated with various organisations and associations.</span></div>

	<span style="font-size:12px;">Maharjan's childhood was largely spent in the agricultural milieu. His parents were farmers in Lalitpur but they had a sense that their children must go to school and get education. He passed his School Leaving Certificate from Namuna Machhindra School at Lagankhel. He passed Intermediate from Patan Campus. However, he did not take his education further.</span></div>

<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 14.15pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Maharjan and his family did not see their farm leading them anywhere. â€œI did not see any future there,he says. Since my childhood I thought of doing things differently and in the best possible way.Maharjan says business was sitting deeply in his mind. He was concentrating on agriculture thinking he will land a good job some day.&nbsp;Apart from his works in the field, he was active in the local clubs, libraries, and in the locality and even won a local election. At times, he thought of going for foreign employment as well.</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 14.15pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;">

<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 14.15pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">His young romantic days were going on. Then, his family insisted him to get married. Though young Maharjan was determined to make his dreams come true before tying the nuptial knot, he surrendered to his family and married Sarita Maharjan with whom he was in love. Sarita turned out to be his lady luck. At that time, he was just 18. Sarita's family was in Hong Kong. Maharjan's in-laws invited him to Hong Kong as they thought there is not much scope in the country. Then, he took a job in Hong Kong at a wholesale company of diamonds as a helper.</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 14.15pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;">

<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 14.15pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">He proved his honesty and won the confidence of the bosses. So, he was gradually given more tasks of messenger and even handling banking transactions. They even tested my greed and left thousands of dollars in open drawers when I was the only person in the office. Next morning, they used to cross-check. I never thought of betraying them but was dedicated to perform well to get more salary in a legitimate way, he narrates how he passed the tests.</span></div>

<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 14.15pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Working for the whole day had a benefit that he never felt homesick. He claims he worked from 5 am to midnight so that he can sleep quietly at night and does not have to miss his family back home. He was always conscious and determined that one day he has to return to Nepal. While in Hong Kong, he developed the interest in diamonds and also thought of taking something back. Then, he requested his employer to get him some training so that he can learn about diamonds. He says, My boss was a friendly person and he used to help us with everything as he understood we the foreigners will return if we were not given proper facilities. He was also happy to see my eagerness developing for diamonds and arranged for a basic training from the very next day. After completing his works in the office, he would go for training from 9 pm to 11 pm. </span></div>

	<span style="font-size: 12px;"><br />
	Maharjan shares, I acquired basic knowledge on types, grading and assorting diamonds. Then, I requested my employers for further trainings. Later, he was sent to Mumbai for a six-month training at the company's factory for cutting, grading and polishing. I was there just to gain knowledge on diamonds. So, I did not even cross the railway station and kept myself fully focussed on my training. In the beginning, I felt quite uncomfortable as I did not even know how to hold a diamond properly. Gradually, I learned everything, he recalls. </span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 14.15pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;">

<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 14.15pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">There too he spent the whole day pondering over the diamonds. He claims he grabbed things quickly and could separate colours within two weeks. As he learnt things he also started working there though he was not being paid. At the end of six months training, he was found to be performing&nbsp;well like veterans of the industry, he claims. When he returned to Hong Kong, the company's views about him changed. He was promoted to sales department. However, he did not stop learning while on the job. He says, For a couple of years more, I learnt from the market on pricing and quality and even on the ways of marketing.</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 14.15pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;">

<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 14.15pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">After staying for around seven years in Hong Kong, he decided to return to the country as the family also asked him to do so. When he returned, he was not alone. He had knowledge, skills and even money to invest in the business of his own. For three months, he carried out a kind of market survey, leaving no jewellery shops unvisited. In three months, he found expertise missing from the sector in his country. The way of working was not appropriate either. Then, I felt in markets like Nepal, such valuable things can only be sold with a guarantee and not as use-and-throw item, he says.<br />
	<br />
	</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 14.15pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">He sees a lot of artisans and craftsmen&nbsp;here but their ways of working worry&nbsp;him. Maharjan believes that best masterpieces can be created in Nepal itself, which will have the potential to be sold anywhere in the world. I encourage people in this business to create fusion of our traditional knowledge with the modernity, he says. He does not see any competition in the field of creativity.</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 14.15pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;">

	</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 14.15pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Maharjan has always prioritised doing something new than simply following what others are doing in the crowd. That is the mantra to be on the top, he believes. Then, he initiated manufacturing in a professional manner as he was not satisfied with the quality of locally-made jewelleries.</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 14.15pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;">

<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 14.15pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">For Maharjan, business is more than profit and margins. He believes jewellery business cannot sustain without goodwill and trust. He describes, Customers must be assured that they will get back cash upon returning the products. My target is to do marketing through quality rather than advertisements. Maybe, that is why he claims that he has never advertised his jewellery store or even kept a billboard with the showroom's name. He claims he gets customers through trust and goodwill gained by selling quality products.</span></div>

<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 14.15pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Maharjan sees the jewellery market growing in the last four years with a definite change in lifestyle of people in Nepal. In the past, only head of the family used to earn but now everyone makes some earnings. They can afford what they desire for. Rather than copying others, now people want something unique to look different,he explains. He adds that it is Nepali culture to invest in jewelleries and houses as&nbsp;assets rather than luxury.</span></div>

<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 14.15pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Maharjan says he is very much satisfied with what he is doing. His business philosophy based on service rather than just selling precious metals has grown multinational. He has stores at Manhattan Fifth Avenue, Alaska and a distribution point in Los Angeles. In 2005 the first store was opened in USA on his wife's insistence. Now, Maharjan's in-laws are looking after the stores there. We wanted to see how it works outside and we had that confidence too. We were overwhelmed by the response of people when we put up a stall for the first time at a programme organised by Nepalis in America,he proudly shares. He claims he sold jewelleries worth US$ 10 thousand within half an hour. Then, the first store in Manhattan was opened with the help of the company where he worked in Hong Kong. He says he still has good relations with the company, where he learnt the tricks of the trade. Now, the major export destination of finished diamond products from Nepal is the US itself and these products are exported through R B Diamond Jewellers.</span></div>

	<span style="font-size:12px;">Under his group, more than 150 employees are working. Maharjan claims that he treats them as his family. â€œIt depends on them where the company will head for. I believe good people should prosper and succeed. I take care of their comfort and satisfaction,he shares his ways of motivating staff. He says problems are sorted out by discussing them. He has also given them assurance that they don't have to worry about their family's health and education. Maharjan also claims that he can't bear the sad faces of employees and cares that they don't get hurt.</span></div>

	<span style="font-size:12px;">He is planning to expand his business further to handicraft. Maharjan's aim has always been to promote the local knowledge and craftsmanship. In his free time, Maharjan concentrates on the designs and obtaining more knowledge in the stones. He is currently busy designing for the 2012 collections. He says he can ponder over a stone for hours. Apart from that, he also likes to read spiritual books and contemplate on spiritual aspects of life. Maharjan says he is content with what he has got and does not think much about himself and his luxurious wish list. Even during leisure he plans about his companies. He says his family has always been with him even in the business so he feels lucky that he does not have to fight over managing time.</span></div>

I am here all because of such guiding hands and suggestions. He also has the hope that his second generation will take his business further. He expects their education, energy and his experiences to lead the business in future.</span></div>

	<span style="color:#000;"><span style="font-size: 12px;">Suresh Kumar Basnet stepped into the world of business with Rs 7,000 back in 1979. For Basnet, that was a big money managed all by himself to start his business. At that time, he saw demand for fancy clothes, watches, photography equipment, typewriters in the cities of the plain like Bhairahawa, Biratnagar and other places. I supplied those goods from the wholesalers in Kathmandu to these cities,he shares the story behind the inception of his business and career. Basnet gained experience and knowledge about his business with time from the people in his fraternity. He was not hesitant to shift to those goods and businesses that offered lucrative returns.</span></span></div>

Basnet has been in NCC for 18 years now. Beginning with the working committee member, he has climbed the ladder to the apex position.

	<span style="color:#000;"><span style="font-size: 12px;">Basnet was born in Kathmandu in 1955. His family was a working class family. It was around 1960 that his family bought a piece of land in Chitwan. Young Basnet shifted to Chitwan in 1962 where he completed his school education. We had an extended family and since we were financially weak we decided to shift to Chitwan, Basnet clarifies. He adds, There I learnt to be a hard-working man. I took to farming, did household chores and saw myself being shifted from one place to another with the passage of time. He emotionally says that in Chitwan he could realise what the hardship is and what the joys are the two realities of life.<br />

	<span style="color:#000;"><span style="font-size: 12px;">Basnet proudly claims that in his student days, he was quite a good student. Apart from his studies, he was fond of playing football, volleyball, badminton and chess. He was counted as one of the best players of the district those days.</span></span></div>

	<span style="color:#000;"><span style="font-size: 12px;">After graduating the School Leaving Certificate, he came back to Kathmandu with a dream of becoming a doctor. To pursue his dream, he joined Amrit Science Campus. However he was forced to take up physics as he could not study Biology in his high school in the absence of a biology teacher. Basnet largely relied on lectures as books were so rare and expensive those days. He recalls how he had to wait for months for a book in the college library. During his exam time, his fate took a different turn. He fainted while appearing for his exams. I had to leave my studies for around six months because of my illness. When I returned to college, my principal said that I have missed the course and asked me to start afresh next year,Basnet says. Meanwhile, his relatives advised him to change the subject and&nbsp;study commerce rather than waiting for the next session.</span></span></div>

He later completed his graduation from Shankardev Campus in business studies. While pursuing his business studies, Basnet somewhere felt that he should polish his entrepreneur skills and start doing something on his own.I established a firm for import-export, he shares his early days. Basnet picked up business fundamentals from his brother's friend who ran a company in Putalisadak. Basnet was around 26 when he started his business. A lot of hard work in the years that followed earned me vital business contacts that helped me in my export-import business, he reveals. At that time Basnet used to deal with the third-country goods but he claims he never dealt with cheap goods from Khasa, China. He opened an LC account to make his export-import business a formal one.&nbsp;Basnet usually dealt in items with seasonal demands like dry fruits and readymade garments during major festivals like Dashain and Tihar. Apart from that he also tried dealing with photography goods, motor parts, ball bearings and later on even in vehicles. He admits that often he had to bear losses for not having enough experience and expertise. He adds, I thought of getting into industries. I was into garments, carpet, and pashmina. In the pashmina business, I incurred losses as well as made profits over the years His markets for these products were Japan, Korea and USA. He shares, I gained experience by doing the things. I learnt the nitty-gritty of business and kept on reworking on my strategies. I always received support from my family. My better-half is just like my business partner.</span></span></div>

	<span style="color:#000;"><span style="font-size: 12px;">Basnet has passed three decades in the business world. He thinks profit and loss are defined by the nature of business, time and environment, politics, dedication to work and a touch of luck. Sometimes despite hard work, enough investment and favourable time, some circumstances and luck may lead to failure,Basnet opines. Apart from profit and loss, business has taught me honesty, duty to pay taxes to the state, and to have patience and take risk, he says.</span></span></div>

	<span style="color:#000;"><span style="font-size: 12px;">Today Basnet has stopped importing and focuses only on export. I am looking for ways to export our products to other countries. I am targeting the US market though recession has bruised&nbsp;its demands. However, I have not stopped exporting pashmina, silver jewellery, handicraft, copper goods, small statues and carpets, he expresses determination. Basnet is looking forward to investing in hydroelectricity too. I am also searching for feasible products that can be produced with local raw materials and which has the market prospect within Nepal like dairy products,he adds.</span></span></div>

	<span style="color:#000;"><span style="font-size: 12px;">When he began his business, Basnet managed the investment from his own sources but today he feels the presence of commercial banks has eased financing for any project. About managing capital, he says he revolves the fund between industries and companies as and when required.</span></span></div>

	<span style="color:#000;"><span style="font-size: 12px;">About managing his companies, Basnet says that management works are done by dedicated staff and managers of the respective departments are given full authority. He says he does not interfere in their work&nbsp;except for some monitoring and policy guidelines. However, Basnet thinks the investor also has to play the role of a manager.</span></span></div>

	<span style="color:#000;"><span style="font-size: 12px;">Basnet believes in having friendly relationship with employees. After working for a long time, some sense of brotherhood develops among the staff,he opines. He says employees salary is based on the ratio of profit made by the company but he ensures that people working in his companies are well taken care of in all respects including financial distress.We respect honesty, dedication and hard work of employees so that they can develop a sense of ownership towards their workplace.</span></span></div>

	<span style="color:#000;"><span style="font-size: 12px;">Basnet feels that he struggled throughout his life alone. His sons have always stayed away from home either for their studies or for their job. But we always have a cordial relationship with each other. I have given time to my family as much as possible. Previously, we used to spend quality time together at least once a month and every winter we used to visit some places within Nepal, he revealed the way he takes out time for his family. He thinks giving time to family means giving time to self also.</span></span></div>

	<span style="color:#000;"><span style="font-size: 12px;">He is satisfied with what he has achieved so far and has nothing to regret. At the end of the day, experience that he gathered maters to him much than the the status of profit and loss accounts. As any other human being, I also thought of making money but for that I never compromised with the business ethics, he proudly says. I never lied or cheated anybody and I always paid back the loans borrowed from the banks. That gives me immense satisfaction when I look back at my career.</span></span></div>

	<span style="color:#000;"><span style="font-size: 12px;">For the last 17 years, he has immersed himself into spiritual contemplation. He says, There is only one truth that is our soul and God. What we see with our eyes is nothing but illusion. Every morning, he meditates and ponders over spirituality for two hours. Basnet claims that NCC is also a kind of social organisation that has spent 58 years for the welfare of small, big and medium industries without any greed. He is also involved with a religious institution. I participate in some spiritual activities as religion is an integral part of our culture. My aim is to interact with the soul. I think our physical body is just like a mirage in the desert or the rope seen as a snake in dim light, he becomes saintly. </span></span></div>

I know that exercise is needed to keep myself healthy but I have not been successful to manage time for it. But I do light exercises related to breathing and limbs every day for around half an hour, he revealed. I have some health problems but due to my spiritual inclination, they have not caused many problems to me, he claimed. Apart from that, he likes reading spiritual books, economic news and articles, occasionally watch family and social movies and TV channels like Discovery, National Geographic that air new and interesting things. He admits that he spends more time in spiritual contemplation. He feels his body has grown too old to indulge in any sports now.</span></span></div>

He does not dream of visiting new places, go swimming or golfing. He plans to immerse in his quest for spirituality. My philosophy is that being a human being, we are meant to find out who we are. So, I will also try to internalise the self, he declares.</span></span></span></div>

	<span style="font-size: 9.5pt;">His father wanted at least one of his two sons to join the defence forces but young Umang had different ideas in mind. After completing his A-Level from Nagarjuna Academy and ISc from St Xavier's College, Rana left for Russia to study Civil Engineering. But he left the study midway and returned home two years later. I just couldn't complete it. I fell home sick, he admits in a near apologetic tone. Back in Nepal, he began pursuing Bachelor of Business Studies degree with specialisation in Human Resource. While still in college, Rana landed his first paid job a month long stint with Surya Tobacco Company (now Surya Nepal) for its product introduction. I was on the streets promoting the new product to the passers-by and asking them to try it. Each day, they will send me to a new location, he reminisces. </span></div>

Having travelled the entire South East Asia for his work, he had little left to achieve unless he wanted to take up a position with the company abroad. This is another factor that triggered his retirement from DHL as he did not want to move out of Nepal. After weighing several options, Rana finally decided to plunge into construction as, Apartment business was much in demand around three years ago which led to my decision to enter this line of business.One thing led to another and he entered into a technical collaboration with Westar Properties, Dubai. </span></div>

	<span style="font-size: 9.5pt;">Rana asserts that you can call a project a success only when it gets completed. It is precisely when commitment gets delivered and a dream turns into reality. He gets a bit emotional talking about his current project Westar Residency, a Vaastu compliant high-rise apartment building at Balkumari, Lalitpur. This is my baby. I have been involved with the project from scratch and it's immensely satisfying to see it taking shape,he says. A planner, by his own admission, he recommends infrastructure as a prime importance and wants the government to ensure infrastructure development for the overall development of the country.&nbsp;</span></div>

	<span style="font-size: 9.5pt;">He believes he was born with a golden heart, I go out of my way to help people. I guess it comes naturally to me.He is a religious person and prays for self-satisfaction. He draws inspiration from Bhagavad Gita your good actions automatically come back to you, sooner or later. Living in a joint family, he is a self-confessed homely person. He says that living in a joint family comes with a lot of advantages as well as responsibilities. On week days, it's a strict home-to-office and vice versa. He loves to catch up on movies though, with his wife and parents. He says, I am glad that there are a few good movie theatres now that we can go to.</span></div>

	<span style="font-size: 9.5pt;">Not a party animal, he normally attends social occasions only. Late nights are a complete no-no, I don't have this urge like a lot of other people to attend the so-called happening events in town.You will usually find Rana comfortably attired. He believes in dressing for the occasion. Clad in a suit while showing around his sample flats, he can be caught wearing shorts and T-shirts in summer. At other times, he loves to wear daura-suruwal for&nbsp; family functions. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size: 9.5pt; line-height: 115%;">He says it's just the right time for him to work hard, I am giving it all I have, for the completion of Westar Residency by its projected deadline 4th Qtr of 2012. Once the mission is accomplished, Rana wants to expand his business horizon and move into other sectors depending on the direction the nation's economy heads towards in the next 5-10 years. At present, the uncertainty level is very high so I am yet to identify my future business course, he explains. He has kept all options open and wants to enter businesses that have values. A firm believer in the adage, œlearning never stops, success is not only about creating wealth for him. Letting go of bachelorhood and becoming a father later transformed him as a person, he says. My marriage and the birth of my son has made me become more responsible socially and had me planning for the future, he reveals. Having led quite a privileged life, Rana doesn't have any major regrets and is content with everything god has to offer. </span></div>

However, with time, Golyan went on diversifying.&nbsp; He is currently the Chairman of Golyan Group of Industries. While Reliance Spinning Mill (RSM) is the flagship company of the group, it also has institutions such as NMB Bank, Westar Properties, Atlanta Trading, City Properties, Dhanalaxmi Synthetics, Himali Pashmina Industry, Shivam Plastic Industries and Makalu Cashmere are among others. Golyan says, Our flagship company, RSM alone registers an annual turnover of three to four billion rupees.</span></span></span></p>

	<span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><span style="font-size: 12px;"><span aldine401="" color:="">Golyan was born in Rangeli, Biratnagar and spend his childhood there. After appearing for his School Leaving Certificate (SLC) examinations, he started work at the Shah Industry, one of the units within his family business. I started my career when I was only 16-years-old and became a full-fledged business person by 22, he proudly states. The industry closed down after the establishment of the spinning mill. He remembers his early days at the industry, There were around 600 workers at that time. It was not a smooth ride all along. However, the learning experience there was great and has always helped me. <br />

	<span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><span style="font-size: 12px;"><span aldine401="" color:="">Golyan continued to work through his college days. I used to attend classes in the morning and look after the business mainly during the day, he reminisces. He completed his B com from Mahendra Morang Campus, Biratnagar and has been involved in business full time ever since. He did not find time to pursue further studies. Not that he had the inclination either. Once I was full-fledged into business, I lost interest in studies, he says nonchalantly.</span></span></span></p>

	<span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><span style="font-size: 12px;"><span aldine401="" color:="">Going to cinema was a favourite pastime those days. Golyan recalls that Biratnagar used to be a place where there were no restaurants and clubs. There were limited options for merry-making and hangouts. He chuckles, We used to go to Dharan just to watch movies.His journey as a businessman took a defining turn when his doctor advised him to relocate to a cooler place. He suffered from dry eyes disease. To escape from the scorching heat of Biratnagar, Kathmandu proved to be a cool haven for him. Moving to Kathmandu largely helped business, he reveals. It reaped benefits for him to move to the capital city as a series of activities took place since. First, the establishment of RSM happened. In the subsequent years, Golyan started expanding into other industries and businesses. And, as luck would have it, the businesses turned out to be successful ventures in due time. <br />

	<span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><span style="font-size: 12px;"><span aldine401="" color:="">Establishment of RSM was probably the most proud moment of my life, he happily says. Setting up an industry worth one billion rupees 15 years ago was a massive proposition. Today, Golyan personally has one billion rupees worth of shares in the industry along with his equal partner Shashikant Agrawal. Presently, the industry exports its products to Turkey, Bangladesh and India. Among these countries, India is the largest market with 80 per cent of the total exports ending up there. He says that the thread produced at RSM is supplied to almost all Nepali textile industries. He is particularly pleased that the market prospects have improved appreciably in the last four months. <br />

It has a management team of professionals which takes care of the day-to-day management while Golyan has continued to take interest in the company's future. He reveals, Among all my companies, RSM is very close to my heart as I was attached with the textile business for a very long time. His other unit Shivam Plastic Industry manufactures woven sacks while Dhanalaxmi Synthetics produces threads with melt spinning. Westar Properties, the housing company, has two projects under construction at the moment. The group also has its investment in the banking and insurance sectors. <br />

	<span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><span style="font-size: 12px;"><span aldine401="" color:="">They say slow and steady wins the race. Golyan is a living example. I moved my family business ahead step-by-step. There was no rush and I never expected any overnight miracles, he shares. He says that he credits his success to continuing his father's honest virtues in business and the faith on Goddess Durga. When it comes to human resource management, he believes that trust is the most important aspect. Therefore, he believes in trusting his employees and giving them responsibilities based on their respective capacities. Over 5000 employees work for his various companies. He believes in healthy discussions to mitigate problems. Golyan does not like yes men He reasons, I may be the Chairman but that does not make me perfect. So, everything that I say need not come into effect.He believes that it's not the individual who is important. The company or the institution is more important as the destinies of thousands of stakeholders are attached with it. He believes in enhancing the skills of his employees to develop a sense of ownership in them. <br />

	<span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><span style="font-size: 12px;"><span aldine401="" color:="">He hates the Nepali trend of following successful businesses blindly. In my belief, it is important to study a business meticulously before venturing into it, he suggests. Imitating successful businesses does not guarantee success, working with optimism and dedication does, he says. Golyan painfully recounts the time when he almost left his business on his eldest son's demise. I was shattered and lost all my hopes. I saw no reason to continue. But one of my colleagues reasoned that I don't have the right to leave the livelihood of thousands of workers in lurch,he says. <br />

	<span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><span style="font-size: 12px;"><span aldine401="" color:="">According to Golyan, the four pillars that matter in his life are business, personal life, social life and personal time. I try to balance these as much as possible. I keep myself completely free from all business matters at least one day in a week. That day is for my family, he declares. He also manages 10 to 15 days twice a year for travelling with his family and friends. New Zealand is one of his much loved destinations. He tries to apply this on his employees too. So, he has the provision of forced holidays for them. A holiday rejuvenates people and also helps us realise their importance during their absence, he explains. <br />

	<span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><span style="font-size: 12px;"><span aldine401="" color:="" letter-spacing:="">I love to sleep as much as possible. Sometimes I don't wake up until midday, he jokes. He fondly remembers the days when he used to play badminton and cricket, That was a long time ago. These days, I practice yoga to stay fit. A movie buff, he also enjoys listening to music. Moderately brand conscious, Golyan prefers quality over brand names. At 52, he is already a veteran of 30 years in business. You ask his future plans and he philosophises, I have not looked at day-to-day business for the last 10 years. But I don't intend to retire completely. He wants to begin philanthropy in his son Jayanta's name. He plans to adopt a remote village with a population of 800 to 1200 residents and sponsor their health and education. Instead of giving them money, I will help them become self reliant by providing them with different skills and probably buy their produce,he says. <br />

	<span style="color:#000;"><span style="font-size: 12px;"><span aldine401="" color:="" style="line-height: 115%;">If the pilot project attains success, Golyan plans to expand this model to other villages. I am beginning the project from this year. And I would dedicate time for it just as I do for my industries, he expresses. He added that though it is a difficult and thankless job, he wants to do so for his inner satisfaction. Golyan has no regrets in life except his inability to save his son. He treats his nephews as his own children and wants to see them become successful in life.&nbsp;</span><span style="line-height: 115%; font-family: Wingdings; letter-spacing: 0.05pt;"> <br />

	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span class="A28"><span style="line-height: 115%; font-family: &quot;Calibri&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;;">Deepak Prakash Baskota, is an epitome for the people who think that grey hairs become barrier for chasing success. In a journey from a politician to entrepreneur he came across numerous challenges but they never deterred his enthusiasm and determination to realize his dreams. <br />
	</span></span></span></p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span class="A4">V</span><span style="color: black;">isit cc’s home at Manbhawan, Lalitpur, and you are surely to receive a hearty welcome with warm cups of ‘special’ tea grown in his own Kanchanjunga Tea Estate. A well-known name in Nepal’s cooperatives sector, Baskota is buoyed up by the saying “Water the root, enjoy the fruit”. Recuperating from an accident he met with during a recent visit to London, Baskota feels life has given him another chance to serve the nation. A former State Minister for Home Affairs, Baskota, now 68, is no more into active politics. But he is actively involved in the management of various institutions such as Kanchanjangha Tea Estate and Research Center (the first Certified Organic Garden), Panchthar Multiple Campus, Naya Namuna Secondary School, Phidim, and Nepal Organic Foundation. “The work I have been doing for society is my way of doing politics,” he says.</span> <br />
	</span></p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="color: black;">Baskota’s inexhaustible zeal for creativity and active life does not let him feel ‘old’ though he is already in his late sixties. “Age should not have its face lifted, but it should rather teach the world to admire wrinkles as the etchings of experience and the firm line of character,” he shares cheerfully. He takes satisfaction in the fact that he is the founding chairman of National Cooperative Development Board (NCDB), National Cooperative Federation (NCF), and also the president of Himalayan Orthodox Tea Producers’ Association, and the Tea Development Alliance.</span> <br />
	</span></p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="color: black;">Baskota was brought up by his mother at his birthplace, a remote village in Panchthar district. He learnt to read and write through non-formal education in the village itself. “I was only 12 when my mother passed away. It was my brother who guided me and boosted my morale to tread the rocky roads lying ahead in my life,” Baskota reminisces.</span> <br />
	</span></p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="color: black;">Baskota spent his early young days rambling in the wilderness under the serene sky of his village. It was a time of complete freedom for him. Later, as time passed, something inside him urged him to get formal education. He then enrolled at Phidim High School in the district.</span> <br />
	</span></p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="color: black;">“Passing the SLC exam, also known as the Iron Gate, was a challenge. But I did it with ease,” he goes down memory lane. Hale and hearty Baskota takes a balanced diet, desists from eating meat items and meditates every day. He believes that it’s his positive attitude and ardent love for the motherland that make him feel he has miles to go in life. Baskota finds the slow growth of agriculture, purportedly the backbone of Nepal’s economy, distressing. He observes that most of the co-operatives in Nepal are related to agriculture and are thus the best friends of farmers. “It will take a long time to establish the cooperative sector as the real backbone of our economy, if the right action plans are not formulated immediately,” says Baskota.</span> <br />
	</span></p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="color: black;">Baskota joined politics at an early age. Back then in his village, Baskota was doing both teaching and learning simultaneously. Along with venturing into the spheres of politics and business, it was the love for his roots — the birth place - that motivated him to build a school there. At 21, he was included in the voters’ list and was also elected the Village Panchyat Chief. Baskota remembers an important event in life, which has left a deep impact somewhere on his mind. “While pursuing my Bachelor’s Degree, I got rusticated for three years because of my political beliefs. As a result, I had to discontinue my studies,” he flips back an important page of his life. His political path was shaped after he joined the Nepal Student Union (NSU), the student wing of the Nepali Congress. The topsy-turvy ride of his life took an unprecedented turn when he dedicated himself to the Cooperative Movement in the country.</span> <br />

	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="color: black;">“For me, politics is to make good policies and to work for the welfare of society,” he says. It was in 1996 that he got the post of State Minster for Home Affairs. According to Baskota, it was the seminal role he had played in the drafting of the Cooperatives Act and the acknowledgement of the same by the then Prime Minister Girija Prasad Koirala that landed him the important government position. Late Koirala always encouraged and motivated him to continue his good work, Baskota still remembers.</span> <br />

	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="color: black;">According to Baskota, the same act governs the cooperative sector even today. “I don’t call the present chaotic political situation a practice of true and good politics,” he admits with a deep disappointment. Baskota’s creativity in work, led him to develop Kanchanjunga Tea Estate (KTE) in 1982. He is proud to claim that the flourishing tea business in the east today was his initiative. Since its establishment, KTE has given jobs to more than 500 local farmer families. Baskota has dedicated 17 long years of his life to the National Cooperative Society (NCS) formed in 1993. He is still actively working as a Past President of NCS. He also founded Nepal Maharshi Vedic Foundation, recently.</span> <br />

	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="color: black;">Baskota believes that a person’s age is no barrier to work as long as s/he is healthy – mentally as well as physically. Updated with the latest management strategies, he borrows Mahesh Yogi’s words, “For an effective result, we should monitor for four hours and work for two.” He believes that one should be clear about his vision to reach the desired goal. According to Baskota, to start a new business, a manager should be loyal to his duties and employees need to abide by the rules and accomplish given responsibilities on time. “If both the manager and the employee work in equilibrium a good management is definitely possible”, Baskota shares.</span> <br />
	</span></p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="color: black;">Given the nation’s recent chaotic situation, he thinks, every citizen should have peace of mind first. Baskota says that, it is the stereotypical teaching methodology in our schools that makes the curriculum and learning experience boring. His recent trip to London made him realize that, all the learnt knowledge will bear no fruit without a practical education. “On the one hand, we lack enough skilled human resource, and on the other, our talented youth are brain drained,” he complains. Baskota believes that practical education should be given to all citizens. For him resolution is a must to accomplish every duty.</span> <br />
	</span></p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="color: black;">As a very sane piece of advice for the youths, Baskota says; “It’s the youth who carry the thoughts, vision and leadership needed for change. They should hence set their aims in lives at an early age and prepare for every rocky road ahead”. The new generation can learn the importance of patriotism and simplicity from him. Patriot at heart, Baskota wishes to see the nation prosper; and maintains that it is achievable through the development of agriculture sector. “A number of young Nepali talents are abroad at present. If we can bring them back to the country and persuade them to contribute in the field, it will be more fruitful for our economy,” Baskota believes. He also urges the youngsters to start meditating while still young.</span> <br />

	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="line-height: 115%; color: black;">“I use the lessons from my experience and strongly believe that hard work and sacrifice is a must to climb up every rung of success,” Baskota says. Keeping intact with the zeal while still aging, he hates to waste time idle and instead likes to go through books and to meditate. He says his work, which includes occasional field visits to his various offices, keeps him busy. He loves travelling and has already been to many parts of the country. People close to him call him the ‘Father of Nepal Cooperative Movement’ and it gives him a warm satisfaction.</span></span></p>

Executive Chairman of Nepal Skin Hospital Pvt Ltd and Country Manager at SkyNet Worldwide Express, Khem Raj Panta has also held important designations in companies including Qantas Freight, DTDC Worldwide Express and Nepal FM 91.8. “It was accidental”, he bluntly answers to how he turned a businessman. Born in the hills of Gorkha and raised in the plains of Biratnagar, as a young boy, he aspired to hold a government position. The Pantas were not businessmen; business had never run in the family. <br />

<p class="Default" style="text-align:justify;line-height:10.05pt">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="color: rgb(33, 29, 30);">Going down the memory lane, he recalls that his father always wanted him to take up science, particularly either medicine or engineering. However, his life took an unexpected turn after he came to Kathmandu in 1990. He got his first business exposure when he worked with UPS, a global company, for six months. He entered SkyNet in 1992 having cleared an interview and in five years’ time, he became the first person of the company. And then, his long journey of leadership in the field of business began in 1997. Today, there is apparently nothing that he is more passionate about and more committed to than business. <br />

<p class="Pa10" style="text-align:justify;text-indent:14.0pt">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="color: rgb(33, 29, 30);">It seems distressing, having to handle so many responsibilities at once. Panta admits that although it is a tough job, he goes about accomplishing his work with the help of his team and the system behind him. He believes that team building, system building and channeling are crucial aspects of business and management. Although there are no hard and fast rules to his management philosophy, he does live by three words like a mantra “honesty, hard work and commitment”. While he is thankful towards J N Shetty, MD at SkyNet Mumbai, for guiding him, Panta had no godfather to look up to when he entered business. Whatever he has earned and achieved till now, it is due to his hard work and ability. <br />

<p class="MsoNormal">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="color: rgb(33, 29, 30);">He is very committed to his work; and works from 7 am to 10 pm on a normal day. His work demands a lot of travelling across the world and in long flights. When he is travelling, his flight hours are also his prep hours; he uses the time to do his homework for the visiting purpose. One very important characteristic of his is that he worships time and values every minute of the day. Even when he is abroad, he doesn’t </span><span style="color: rgb(33, 29, 30);">spend a day extra than demanded by his work unless he is on a planned vacation. Panta is strictly against wasting time.</span> <br />
	</span></p>
<p class="Pa10" style="text-align:justify">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="color: rgb(33, 29, 30);">For this businessman, his friends and family have always been a strength factor. When asked about important people in his professional and personal life he instantly remembers two other people besides his wife and son: brother-in-law Kiran Acharya and partner Bijay Rijal. Panta’s wife above all is like a backbone to him. Ever understanding and ever loving, she helps him keep calm and be patient in affliction. For 20 longs years, she has always stood by him. “She is a wonderful woman, a wife, a friend and most importantly an advisor to me,” he says. Besides wife Nirmala’s significance in his life, he has another advisor in the family, his 18-year-old son Aashish. Panta believes in the importance of quality education and has always sent his son to the best of schools. Currently, Aashish is pursuing his BBA at GD Goenka World School. <br />
	</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="color: rgb(33, 29, 30);">&nbsp;He listens to his son because for him it is important to keep up with the new generation. With father’s wisdom and son’s freshness, the Pantas share a relationship that stands on friendship within and beyond the family. Panta has begun grooming his son for the business world already. They attend business meetings together whenever his son is free. Some time ago, his son even looked after one of his business ventures for six whole months. Panta sees a potential businessman in his son. He confesses that it is difficult to balance time between family and work, and compromises have to be made sometimes. However, whenever he is with his family he gives his 100 per cent to them, “Saturday is an absolute family day for me” he justifies his claim. Once in a year, Panta and his family also fly to a holiday destination.</span> <br />
	</span></p>
<p class="Pa10" style="text-align:justify">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="color: rgb(33, 29, 30);">Despite the hectic schedule and a number of responsibilities attached to his designations, Panta leads a modern healthy life. He is an Osho follower; and hence he meditates for 30 minutes every day. He also runs and sometimes swims at the club. He is fit and healthy and hence plans to work hard in the coming decade while he still has the oomph of business in his soul. “I don’t want to die working like most Nepalis do”, he says. <br />
	</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="line-height: 115%; color: rgb(33, 29, 30);">After the age of 55, he plans to hand over his responsibilities to a new generation of leaders and retire willingly. Panta has neatly outlined his retirement plan already and shares it enthusiastically. He plans to divide a year into four perfect halves, each for a destination. He plans to spend three months each in Kathmandu, Gorkha and Delhi where his beloved friends are and the remaining three months travelling around the world with his wife.<br />
	</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="line-height: 115%; color: rgb(33, 29, 30);">There were two major turning points in his life. The first one was his association with SkyNet, where he understood what his purpose in life was and the second one was the birth of his son. His son’s birth was like a lucky charm and opened all the doors of opportunities for him one by one. However, time is god to Panta and he credits his respect for time as the main reason for where he stands today. <br />
	</span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">
	<span style="font-size:14px;"><span style="line-height: 115%; color: rgb(33, 29, 30);">He has a few simple but powerful messages for the entire new and emerging generation of entrepreneurs - young entrepreneurs should not be involved in politics and young talents should not migrate abroad because if there is one place that has enormous potential for business it has to be Nepal. Finally, Panta says, “I know, the new generation is in a hurry to succeed and it is only natural for them to want so. But, you should understand that there are no shortcuts to success. You have to be patient.”</span></span></p>

&quot;Times New Roman&quot;;mso-bidi-theme-font:minor-bidi;color:#221E1F">eorge Bernard Shaw once said “Some men see things as they are and say why - I dream things that never were and say why not.” Similar has been the attitude of this ambitious businesswoman Seema Golchha throughout. Carving out a niche for herself, she has been making her presence felt in the Nepali business sector. In the male dominated Nepali society, when Golchha decided to join her family business, it was something unusual. Never before had any woman from the Golchha family forayed into business. She confessed that her father-in-law was the one to motivate her to join the business. Ever since she took a bold step toward business, there has been no looking back. </span></p>
<p class="Pa8" style="text-indent:14.0pt">
	<span style="font-size:10.0pt;
color:#221E1F">&nbsp;Exploring the lesser known, and rather personal side to Golchha, she reveals to you, her journey from a young, liberal and warm hearted Indian girl to being the daughter-in-law of one of the most reputed business house in Nepal and finally to establishing herself a successful entrepreneur.</span></p>
<p class="Pa8" style="text-indent:14.0pt">
	&nbsp;<span style="font-size:10.0pt;
color:#221E1F">“I always had a smile on my face, she said, recalling her childhood days. Brought up in Lucknow and Dehradun, Golchha had a happy childhood. She completed her schooling from Dehradun and pursued her higher studies in Delhi University. She was always a vivacious and an independent girl. For her, the inspiration to lead an independent life always came from her working mother. Unlike ordinary women thirty years ago, she lived independently in a flat and worked for advertising agencies. <br />
	<br />
	<img alt="" border="1" height="424" hspace="10" src="http://newbusinessage.com/ckfinder/userfiles/Images/personaliity_3.jpg" vspace="10" width="366" /><br />
	</span></p>
<p class="Pa8" style="text-indent:14.0pt">
	<span style="font-size:10.0pt;
color:#221E1F">However, things changed completely for her when she got married to Shekhar Golchha who belonged to a completely different cultural background. “I was leading a very modern and liberal lifestyle before marriage and hence getting married to a conservative family brought a huge cross-cultural transition in my life,” expressed Golchha. Although it took her some time, she eventually adapted to and adjusted with the new environment that she was placed in back then.</span></p>
<p class="Pa8">
	&nbsp;<span style="font-size:10.0pt;color:#221E1F">Golchha, who has perfectly balanced her personal and professional life, believes that time management is the key to balance in life. Wife of a businessman and a mother of two, she is also a perfectionist. Although it is not possible to score 10 / 10, she, as a mother, a wife, and an entrepreneur, is doing justice to every role with sheer conviction. . Enjoying every moment of the day, she still tries to work out details in whatever she engages. “We should always give our cent percent in whatever we do,” she said. </span></p>
<p class="Pa8">
	<span style="font-size:10.0pt;color:#221E1F">Entering business was intentional for her, as she always had an interest in it. “I am happy being involved in business as it recharges and completes my life in a way,” she said when asked about her professional life. She started her business with a women’s showroom in Durbar Marg. Since then there has been no looking back for her. <br />

<p class="Pa8" style="text-indent:14.0pt">
	&nbsp;<span style="font-size:10.0pt;
color:#221E1F">“Success is important, but it is not everything,” said Golchha. She believes that every step taken towards achieving your goal counts. It doesn’t matter if one succeeds or not, it is important that one should work hard to meet own expectations and goals. When she first joined the family business, a showroom like Samsung Plaza was an innovative idea. It was very rare in Nepal to find such a range of electronics under one roof. Today, 10 years later, she is expanding the exclusive outlet of Samsung electrical appliances across the country. Despite many obstructions like load shedding and strikes, she is also looking to further expand her business by launching two more Samsung Plazas, a Timex Watch outlet and a Bajaj Appliances outlet. She strongly believes that if you have faith in yourself, nothing can stop you and hence she is </span><span style="font-size:10.0pt;mso-bidi-font-family:&quot;Myriad Pro&quot;;color:#221E1F">moving ever onward. </span></p>

	&nbsp;<span style="font-size:10.0pt;
mso-bidi-font-family:&quot;Myriad Pro&quot;;color:#221E1F">She has always held the view that women should be empowered. Hence, most of her employees are young, motivated girls. In her line of business, it is important to understand customers’ temperament because at the end of the day, customers’ satisfaction is what matters most. So, when she is recruiting her employees, academic qualification is not all that she looks for, she also observes their personality. When asked about her management strategy, she shared that it is important to provide employees with space for innovation in order to improve and upgrade the company’s status. It is also important to provide enough opportunity for communication between management and staff. She also makes sure to set an example of dedication, in order to motivate her employees. </span></p>

&quot;Myriad Pro&quot;;color:#221E1F">She is surely dedicated to her work but a trekking enthusiast, Golchha doesn’t forget to take a break every now and then. For her, friends and family are an integral part of her life and she lets her hair down while having fun with them. She believes that socializing is an important aspect of both personal and professional life. She is also an avid book reader. With her life moving back and forth between so many roles of a woman, she still manages to maintain equilibrium in her life. With an amazing life graph and career ladder, she is beauty with not only brains but also balance.</span></p>

color:#211D1E">oung Min Bahadur Gurung had strong faith in making history one day. His parents too had a dream that he will be a great personality of the country in due course of time. It was the major reason behind his parents’ decision to send him to a good school although his was a big 10-member family. Born after five sisters, he was raised as a pampered son in the family and provided with facilities that a son usually gets in the Nepali society. Two younger brothers were born after him. During his early schooling, Gurung was touched by the story about Madam Curie inventing bean size radium after melting 17 tons of stone. Megnath Lamsal, his teacher at high school, left a deep impression on him. The teacher’s lessons motivated him to do well in life and reach greatness one day. “I was very fond of Lamsal Sir and liked his classes much. I developed a strong belief in myself and was committed to work hard for success,” he recalls.</span> <br />

	<span style="font-size:10.0pt;mso-bidi-font-family:&quot;Myriad Pro&quot;;color:#211D1E">Born in Dube, a village in Khotang district, Gurung had schooling up to SLC at different schools nearby. Unlike other young boys of his time, he was very energetic and hardworking. He enjoyed his schooldays even though he had to walk two hours daily to go to the school. Despite being a good student, Gurung failed in the SLC exams. It came as a shock for all the teachers, students and his own family who considered him as a bright student. He didn’t take it as a setback though and tried his best to overcome the failure by studying harder. </span></p>
<p class="Pa10" style="text-align:justify;text-indent:14.0pt">
	<span style="font-size:10.0pt;mso-bidi-font-family:&quot;Myriad Pro&quot;;color:#211D1E">Reflecting back on his SLC failure, Gurung says that it actually made him the person he is today. He elaborates, “Because I failed my SLC exams, I did not pursue science stream later. Had I cleared SLC in my first attempt with flying colors, I would have other ideas about my future course of life and ultimately miss this fantastic business opportunity that I have today. </span></p>

mso-bidi-font-family:&quot;Myriad Pro&quot;;color:#211D1E">Gurung started helping his family in farming after his intermediate degree. In Bhadra 2031 BS, he started planting rice, harvesting maize and other jobs required by the farming demands. During this period, he fell terribly sick and survived the ordeal somehow. Gurung’s father decided that enough was enough. Until now, he always insisted to keep his dearest son close to him but following the incident, he advised him to go to Kathmandu and study further.</span> </p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:10.0pt;mso-bidi-font-family:&quot;Myriad Pro&quot;;color:#211D1E">Gurung had his first job as a record keeper who recorded attendance of daily wage laborers. He shares, “I was given Rs 400 by my father when I left for Kathmandu so I had to find a job anyhow to sustain.” He was soon hired in Nepal Bank Limited and was given a position in Nepalgunj. However, after two years, he managed to find a posting to Kathmandu and started pursuing a master’s degree shortly afterwards. He would attend college in the morning and work at the bank as his full time job.</span> </p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:10.0pt;mso-bidi-font-family:&quot;Myriad Pro&quot;;color:#211D1E">A permanent job at the bank encouraged him to settle down in life. He married Sabitri Gurung, a girl from his own village who was pursuing her intermediate degree in Kathmandu. Meanwhile, he also started selling goods which built the foundation of his retail business. Gurung later turned his part time retail business as a full time profession when he realized the potential that the business offered. He established Bhatbhateni Cold Store in 2041 and expanded his retail shop on the second floor of the store in due course of time.</span></p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:10.0pt;mso-bidi-font-family:&quot;Myriad Pro&quot;;color:#211D1E">As fate would have it, his store caught fire in 2047 BS and caused him a financial loss of around a million rupees. Gurung says the fire at Bhatbhateni was a turning point for him and he learnt a lesson the hard way to take his business more seriously. Three years later, he established Bhatbhateni Departmental Store. “I am a different type of person who believes in growing plants on rock. It is not possible to stop at a failure when you have a great vision,” he says.</span> </p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:10.0pt;
mso-bidi-font-family:&quot;Myriad Pro&quot;;color:#211D1E">Even today, despite all the success, Gurung consults his wife as before while making business strategies. He remembers the time when he had to invest the same gold in his business that he had gifted to his wife earlier. She joined his business within a few days of delivering their first child Kamana. “It was quite amazing that she could join the store within a short period after the delivery of our first child,” he reminisces. He rues the fact that he finds himself unable to give enough time to his family due to a busy schedule. It is hard to find him relaxing much but when he does so, he listening to music from stalwarts such as Narayan Gopal, Bachchu Kailash and Ani Choying Dolma.</span> </p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:10.0pt;mso-bidi-font-family:&quot;Myriad Pro&quot;;color:#211D1E">Starting his grocery store with an investment of Rs 35,000 in a small single shutter, his business today is worth billions of rupees with five huge outlets in the Kathmandu valley and one in Pokhara. It was dream come true for him when the construction of his four huge supermarkets was completed last year. The construction of supermarkets in Kathmandu was overseen by his wife, son and daughter while he was busy taking care of the construction of the Pokhara outlet. As many as 50 people from his family circle are involved in the business, informs Gurung.</span> </p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:10.0pt;mso-bidi-font-family:&quot;Myriad Pro&quot;;color:#211D1E">He says that support from the people and the facilities provided at the Bhatbhateni outlets have made it a successful supermarket chain. His stores registered overwhelming business during their respective openings. The Bhatbhateni outlet at Pokhara was opened not too long ago and the story there was no different either with thousands of people swarming the store for several days. “We had to cease either the upstairs or downstairs lifts every hour to manage the heavy crowd. There were people coming from Gorkha, Butwal and Lamjung as well,” he recounts.</span> </p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:10.0pt;mso-bidi-font-family:&quot;Myriad Pro&quot;;color:#211D1E">Gurung believes that failures pave paths towards new directions and trigger innovations. Bhatbhateni Supermarket employs 22,000 people currently and Gurung hopes that the group will have 50,000 employees in its ranks in 15 years time.</span> </p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:10.0pt;
mso-bidi-font-family:&quot;Myriad Pro&quot;;color:#211D1E">As part of its corporate social responsibility, the group helped construct an emergency ward having 72 beds at Tribhuvan University Teaching Hospital with a spending of Rs 100 million. Gurung has named the ward after his parents whom he holds in very high esteem. He has also been providing yearly scholarships to two MBBS students, especially the ones who originate from remote villages. “We will all die one day so it is important that we set apart a certain percentage of our earnings for social causes,” he reasons. Gurung thinks it is rather unfortunate that not many people spare a thought for the less privileged.</span> </p>
<p class="Default">
	<span style="font-size:10.0pt;
mso-bidi-font-family:&quot;Myriad Pro&quot;;color:#211D1E">He plans to spend his retired life as a social worker. “I still believe in doing jobs which others haven’t tried before and hope to work for the well being of the society,” he says. He recommends people to believe in themselves to make it successful in life and be a part of the history.</span> </p>

	<span style="font-size:10.0pt;line-height:115%;mso-bidi-font-family:
&quot;Myriad Pro&quot;;color:#211D1E">Gurung dreams of making Bhatbhateni a multinational company and an international shopping hub as well as plans to spread his business all around the world. His passion of expanding Bhatbhateni’s business reflects strongly in his statement, “This has become a part of my body; it pains me if something goes wrong in the company.”<br />

	<br />
	An admirer of Steve Jobs, Binay Bohra believes in living by creativity. He feels proud to be able to give something back to the society through his contribution to the IT sector. A computer engineer by profession, Binay likes to explore the tremendous potential of the Internet. Steve Jobs once said, “Creativity is just connecting things. When you ask creative people how they did something they feel a little guilty because they did not really do it, they just saw something. It just seemed obvious to them after a while.” <br />
	<br />
	Binay Bohra, Managing Director of Vianet Communications Pvt Ltd, one of the leading Internet service providers (ISP) of Nepal finds a connection to the creative forces of cosmos. He sees new creations going on constantly in the universe. He has understood the life’s purpose – to create something new in life. He says, “We are part of the universe where creative energy is in abundance. I have always had a healthy feeling that I must create on my own and do something new.” Looking at his ISP business, he has created a link for people to connect to the vast internet that quenches people’s thirst for information, knowledge and entertainment. Moreover, he has also created employment opportunities for people in his organisation through the Internet services he offers. <br />
	<br />
	Having completed his higher studies in India from Bangalore University in 1995 in Computer Engineering, he returned to Kathmandu and joined Mercantile Communications. His parents had migrated from Darchula, a district in far western Nepal. Bohra says his father, who made a big contribution in the telecommunication sector of Nepal himself, had also inspired him to become a computer engineer. <br />
	<br />
	While working for three years at Mercantile, he developed the confidence to do something on his own. The Internet boom was gradually catching up in Nepal, however, there were few ISPs to cater to the growing demand of the Internet. The knowledge Bohra gained in the classroom was juxtaposed with the experience collected via his work. Vianet Communications was created in 1999 after he joined his hands with his likeminded friends. Ever since the company was conceived, Bohra and the company have been constantly moving towards the vision that was envisaged in the beginning. <br />
	<br />
	Vianet was one of the pioneers to offer dial-up Internet in the Kathmandu valley. The company now offers the Internet through the latest technology such as fibre optics to those who want to get connected to high speed Internet. Likewise, it offered cheap and reliable Internet at a time when slow and costly dial-up and NTC’s leased lines were the only options, claims Bohra. He says his company was also the pioneer in offering the Internet over Wi-Fi in Nepal. Today, he says, his company has the robust network to reach offices and homes everywhere. <br />
	<br />
	Whenever Bohra was asked in his childhood what he wanted to be, he used to say that he aspired to become a scientist. “Though I did not grow up to become a scientist, I am still into a creative field,” he says. He completed his schooling and college from St Xavier’s in Kathmandu. He says he possessed leadership quality since his childhood. Bohra used to be the captain of the football and athletic teams during his school days. “I have always believed in having a leadership role so I was interested in doing something on my own. I had always dreamt that I would be an entrepreneur with specialisation in a certain sector,” he recalls. <br />
	<br />
	Bohra has received a lot of support from his family too. Though his spouse runs a firm of her own, she also helps him in his work. “We have our separate businesses and are entrepreneurs in our own right. We are happy that we are into a creative sector that creates jobs and is an interesting world, similar to the creation going on in the universe,” he says. <br />
	<br />
	Bohra does not exert pressure on his offspring to follow a specific path. He would like to see his son grow into a balanced person. “It is not necessary that he should become a doctor or an engineer. I will support him in whatever he wants to become according to his personal interest. He should have that confidence to do what he wants to do,” he says. <br />
	<br />
	Bohra who is also the President of Internet Service Providers’ Association of Nepal (ISPAN) feels that this is the age of the Internet as our lives revolve around it. According to him, it is the source of educational materials, entertainment and various activities like listening to songs, radio, reading newspapers and magazines, watching TV, shopping, e-payments etc. Therefore, he has further plans on offering the Internet with ease to his customers. “Our aim is to make this service reliable and provide high speed network facilities. We are working on it and will come up with various applications and uses for customers,” he shares. He says that the competition is too tough and ISPs have to compete with the telecom operators too as they are also offering high speed Internet. <br />
	<br />
	He thinks that the current political environment is not favourable for doing business. Nevertheless, he feels nobody should stop working because of the external factors. “It has discouraged those who want to do something on their own. But, we have to go on working at our end,” he says. Being from an IT sector he admires Steve Jobs, co-founder of Apple Inc. Bohra likes his way of working – hearing to his inner soul without caring what others say rather than following somebody else. He considers Jobs as a successful and visionary leader. Similarly, he also admires Mahatma Gandhi as a fighter who overcame challenges. <br />
	<br />
	Bohra believes that management philosophy varies from personto- person and also the nature of projects. He believes that there is no shortcut to success and taking up leadership position requires dedication, understanding and intense involvement in the project. “One must work extremely hard because the world has become so competitive. It’s good to be smart, wealthy and lucky but the most important one is the self-belief and confidence,” he opines. He believes mistakes made could be corrected midway. “Mistakes are our learning opportunities but the focus should always be on the target,” he adds. For Bohra, success is multifaceted. He believes that success cannot be measured with the rise and fall in career only. “A person may have a highly successful business but what if his family life is wrecked? Likewise, a person may work hard and earn a lot of money. But it is of no use if his health does not favour him. So, a balanced life is a must and most importantly, you must do something that satisfies your heart,” he explains. <br />
	<br />
	Bohra thinks that the human resource is the most valuable asset for any organisation. “Leaders cannot perform alone. If a team works as a single entity with the dedication on a single mission without refining human resources and rightly managing and understanding the value of people, it is impossible to achieve success,” he says. In his company, Bohra ensures that he hires better people every time. He thinks that intellect should be the basis of recruitment and a team should not be formed based on recommendations alone. <br />
	<br />
	Bohra thinks that working within the country is the biggest contribution to the society. “We live in a society where we may have been doing some creative work and it might have benefited many. It is also possible that people are inspired and enjoying work because of us. So, working here with our own people is more important” he opines. Bohra wishes to diversify his area of operations and is looking forward to work in newer sectors apart from the IT industry. Similarly, he also wishes to take out more time from his routine work and do something more interesting in life. <br />

	Ritu Singh Vaidya, Managing Director at United Traders Syndicate Pvt Ltd (UTS), has enjoyed every role she has stepped into. When she walked on the ramp, she mastered it with her style. When she was on the stage, she cherished the music and touched the listeners’ heart. Now, she is handling the position of a leading business person very well. Model, former Miss India, singer and now a businessperson; Vaidya has perfected the responsibilities she thinks are brought to her by destiny and her dedication in the pursuit of dreams. <br />
	<br />
	<img alt="Ritu Singh Vaidya" border="1" height="362" hspace="5" src="http://newbusinessage.com/ckfinder/userfiles/Images/personality(3).jpg" vspace="5" width="300" /><br />
	<br />
	<br />
	Ritu Singh Vaidya always dreamed to set up her own business although she was at the pinnacle of her modelling career. With twists and turns of her career that were never disappointing for her, she has now climbed up the ladder towards a leading position in one of the leading business houses of Nepal, Vaidya’s Organisation of Industries and Trading House (VOITH). Her working style is ruled by discipline as she was raised in a family with partly business and partly army background. <br />
	<br />
	Vaidya recalls her childhood in Delhi as “nice, pleasant and loving”. She feels fortunate about having pleasurable childhood days. Her grandfathers were in the business sector and were running their family business in present day Pakistan. She says her grandfathers moved to Delhi when she was an eighth grader. She was educated in Delhi and after completing school, Vaidya pursued fashion designing for her higher studies. She is also a BA in Economics and Political Science from Delhi University. <br />
	<br />
	It was obvious for the beautiful and charming Vaidya to be offered a career in glamour and modelling industry. She believes destiny took her into the world of modelling. “I was in class XII when my friends and I participated in the May Queen contest. So, that was the beginning of it.” She was crowned the May Queen title. She actively began modelling after many offers started coming her way. Her journey on the ramp did not stop immediately though. She went to the Miss India contest and grabbed the title that many Indian women dream to achieve – Miss India – in 1991. After winning the title at home, her next target was to win international titles. Vaidya became the fifth runner up in Miss World, second runner up in Miss Asia World and first runner up in Miss India Universe. <br />
	<br />
	“I took it (modelling) on because it just came to me. It happens that things suddenly start working for you and I think they are the natural things to happen because they just come your way,” she says, “But I always had an entrepreneurial spirit in me. I always wanted to establish myself in some kind of business where I felt challenged. I am someone, who likes a routine, discipline and innovativeness.” Vaidya believes she was always inclined towards business. Even during her modelling days, she would dream of getting into some sort of business in the future. “I wasn’t somebody who was going into Bollywood” she says. <br />
	<br />
	Vaidya says she has never been a person who is devoted to only one thing. “When I got into the glamour world, I was also very focused on my studies and about what I was going to do next. Though I was very much enjoying it, I couldn’t see myself turning forty on the ramp,” she explains. <br />
	<br />
	Everything was organised and settled for young Vaidya even at the age of 20. She says she was almost leading a life what people start mostly at their middle ages. She was just 20 when she met businessman Suraj Vaidya in Kathmandu at a charity fashion show organised by him for Bal Mandir. The professional acquaintance grew into love and later to marriage within a matter of years. Vaidya recalls that the initial days of living in Nepal after her marriage was completely different from her earlier days. She says it was a total change in her life, family, career and friends. “The first year of marriage was difficult because I was not used to a lot of things. But my husband made it very easy for me as he was very easy and patient about me even when I went back to Delhi 15 times in 12 months,” she shares. <br />
	<br />
	Vaidya ventured into fashion designing in her initial days in Nepal and worked as a fashion designer for seven years. That was the time when she was also rearing her child. Vaidya stopped designing clothes and dived into her new found passion – singing. She released an album, ‘Sun Zara’ and appeared in her album’s music videos as well. However, she has abandoned her role as a singer as she thinks it consumes a lot of her time and takes her away from her family. “When I released my first album, I really thought I can manage singing simultaneously with my business commitments but later I realised it is not so. For Hindi singing you have to be in Mumbai and be accessible whenever somebody calls you. That was not something I was looking for and desired in my life. Singing for films and doing stage shows is not my cup of tea.” She started taking responsibilities in VOITH when Suraj Vaidya was busy travelling and spending time for larger business responsibilities. <br />
	<br />
	“He had a great ideology on which everybody was moving and that was a great success too. Once he was unwell and had to take rest for treatment. That was when I took up the work,” she says. At present, she is completely looking after UTS and its divisions that deal in Toyota and heavy equipments. Along with it, she occasionally looks after the spa she has set up a few years back. When it comes to working approach, she says, “My approach is very simple. I try to simplify things and believe in a totally centralised command. But jobs are designated to different people and they have a total free hand in what they do. But yes, it has to be totally accountable.” She encourages flow of new ideas from her employees but feels that the final central command has to be strong enough to prevent things going haywire. Vaidya thinks employees are most happy when you let them do the work, give them a good working environment, be ready to listen to their suggestions and at the same time reward them for what they do. Vaidya has a disciplined working style. “Because I am disciplined, a lot of my staff has to be disciplined. They can’t take anything lightly because they know when I say something that needs to be done. I am very focused on making sure that whatever needs to be done, should be done in the given frame of time,” she emphasises. <br />
	<br />
	<img alt="Ritu Singh Vaidya" border="1" height="460" hspace="5" src="http://newbusinessage.com/ckfinder/userfiles/Images/personality1(1).jpg" vspace="5" width="300" /><br />
	<br />
	Vaidya reveals that her organisation is planning to expand into newer sectors like hydropower, hospitality and education. She is trying to consolidate what is already with the organisation along with planning of new ventures. She says, “Hydropower should be there soon as it is already in the pipeline and we are seriously looking into hospitality. Hopefully, we will be coming with new ventures in the next two years if we don’t have external disturbing factors like endless bandhs and political crisis.” Vaidya believes that she has not earned enough money to spend on charities and philanthropic activities. “I believe in doing philanthropy with my own money. I won’t be convinced about it if I am going to throw somebody else’s money and call it a charity. If I can do well and manage to spare money from my earnings; that is the right kind of charity that I would want to do.” <br />
	<br />
	She thinks she is very compartmental and does not like to mix her personal and professional life together. So, she never takes her office to home. “My time is totally devoted to home when I am home. Similarly, when I am in the office, I give all the time to my office works,” Vaidya reveals. Evenings are for her son and husband while she reserves her morning time usually for exercising. A strong believer in destiny, Vaidya is very satisfied with what life has brought to her. She takes her life as it comes and is ready for wherever it leads to. Optimistic in nature, one shouldn’t be surprised to find her trying new things, ventures and passions in the days to come. Her well wishers shouldn’t be astonished to see her in a completely new avatar not too long in the future. <br />

	<strong>PERSONAL SIDE <br />
	</strong><br />
	<br />
	<strong>Take on success:</strong> I am a very happy content person. Nevertheless, the day I do not want to do anything more, I would think that I am dead. From that point of view, there is a lot more to do. <br />
	<br />
	<br />
	<strong>Planning a holiday:</strong> I like things to be done perfectly and neatly. I make sure I do a lot of research on wherever I am going and know the places so that I won’t miss what I want to see and what we are going to do. I like my travel to be organised right from my ticketing and stay to every itinerary and the places where we are going. <br />
	<br />
	<br />
	<strong>Brand consciousness:</strong> If something is nice it does not need to be branded. I believe in being comfortable and wear what I think looks best on me. <br />
	<br />
	<br />
	<strong>Secret of beauty: </strong>Fitness is something I really believe in. You should be very fit because body is the vehicle that carries you. So you have to take care of it. <br />
	<br />
	<br />
	<strong>Spending leisure time:</strong> Reading and listening to music. I read more of philosophies and autobiographies. I love Indian classical music and mostly listen to Hindi music and instrumental and for English, I like jazz and more soulful songs. <br />
	<br />
	<br />
	<strong>Favourite pastimes: </strong>I love to sing and do gardening and am passionate about my house. Therefore, I love cleaning on my off days. <br />
	<br />
	<br />
	<strong>Better mother or a better boss: </strong>I try to justify every role - a good mother, good wife, good house keeper and a good business person. <br />
	<br />
	<br />
	<strong>Favourite Travel Destination: </strong>Paris among all because it is the most romantic and artistic city and also Venice. Turkey was also a very nice place where we went recently and Russia turned out to be a pleasant surprise. <br />
	<br />
	<br />
	<strong>Sporty indulgence: </strong>I used to be a badminton champion in my school. I adored playing volleyball and basketball but now I am more into gymming. <br />

<p>
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><img align="left" alt="presonality" border="1" height="288" hspace="10" src="http://newbusinessage.com/ckfinder/userfiles/Images/rana.jpg" style="margin: 10px; padding: 10px; width: 222px; height: 288px;" vspace="10" width="222" />Shreejana Rana is one hotelier who distinguishes herself from many others in a variety of respects. As Director CSR and R&amp;D of Hotel de lâ Annapurna, which is doing reasonably well as a hospitality entity, she believes,Survival is not enough, we need to get better. This very go-getter attitude of hers has resulted in the hotel's massive renovation and upgradation endeavours of late. I am working hard and giving it all I have to ensure that my hotel lives up to its much revered tagline No. 1 Address in Kathmandu, she confides. Rana thinks it is best to take her chances nowbring back the glory of yesteryears and make a premium 5-star property out of the hotel that it once was, rather than wait endlessly hoping for perfect conditions to make investments.</span></p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Born to Late Kiranendu Malla and Late Kendra R L Malla, she lost her father when she was barely two-years-old. Rana credits her mother, widowed at the young age of 21, for single-handedly raising her younger brother and herself. She says, My mother's courage, hard work and the love she bestowed upon us, despite numerous challenges, have inspired me to respect and uphold family values.While admitting that she had a privileged upbringing which included the best schooling one could think of, Rana led a simple life with plenty of values and discipline her family instilled in her. In those days, rules were made by the parents and never questioned, she elucidates.</span></p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:12px;">An alumnus of St Mary's High School in Jawalakhel, she finished high school from Cambrian Hall, one of India's premier private schools located in Dehradun. Immediately afterwards, she got an opportunity to train with the ITC Welcome Group for five years in the early 1990s. And it was during her learn-onthe- job stint with the ITC when she came across Kapil SJB Rana, a dashing hotel heir who had just returned from England after completing his studies. I helped him get acquainted with Nepali customs as he had practically lived his entire life abroad and knew little about Nepal,she blushes reminiscing her early courtship days. As fate would have it, she was to marry him in due course of time. My family was happy about it and supported my decision wholeheartedly,she shares.</span></p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:12px;">A very ambitious person, by her own admission, Rana also has a soft corner which has led her to being a social entrepreneur. She is a firm believer in empowering women through entrepreneurship and an ardent supporter of fight against heart diseases. While she believes that success is absolutely important and intends to leave no stone unturned to achieve it, she also has the heart to think about people who are less fortunate and wants to give back to the society. Early into her professional career, she dabbled as a fashion entrepreneur with her boutique Image Fashion House at Durbarmarg.</span></p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:12px;">We were involved in organising the 1st Miss Nepal pageant and managed costumes and choreography part of the event,she tells excitedly. Being an emotional person since a young age, social work came naturally to Rana. She is associated with a number of organisations to help fulfill her social responsibilities. Her social undertakings include associations with Jayanti Memorial Trust (JMT), Women Entrepreneurs Association of Nepal (WEAN), SAARC Chamber Women Entrepreneurs Council (SCWEC), Association of St Maryâ's Alumnae Nepal (ASMAN),</span></p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Burn Violence Survivors Nepal (BVS-N) and Federation of Women Entrepreneurs Association of Nepal (FWEAN) among others. I believe in getting women trained and educated to empower them rather than spoiling them with cash money. It is more important to guarantee how money gets utilised, she says. And then adds, If corporate entities in Nepal are only seen making money but not giving back anything to the society, it will be difficult to survive in the long run. As the gap between haves and havenots widen further, social tensions that Nepal already suffers from will reach an unprecedented high. Having lost her father at a time when she was just about starting to know him, left a deep impact on Rana's psyche.</span></p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Hence, she wants to make sure that her two children 13-year-old daughter Keshya Rana and 6-year-old son Satyajot Rana receive the best parentage, My husband and I want to give them the best of both parents and family values. She aspires to give her children quality education and exposure so that they can grow up as capable individuals and stand on their own feet. They must equip themselves and prove their worth. I don't want them to take the family legacy for granted, she elaborates. Rana further assures that Keshya, a boarder of all-girls Downe House School at Berkshire in England, and Satyajot, a student of British Primary School in Kathmandu, will be free to chart their own career courses and won't be pressurised to join the family business. While agreeing that she is very content as a person, Rana wishes her mother was alive today to see her treading a successful trail.</span></p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:12px;">How I wish I could spend more time with her,she gets a tad emotional. Growing up in a close knit family and a comfortable set up, she has never let her affluent background go to her head. She philosophises, I have been very fortunate with my wants and desires so it has been smooth sailing all along with no major regrets whatsoever. A house-proud person, she sees to it that her children eat at home whenever they are around. She believes that her husband, as a thinker, is the right kind of motivation she has in life,He has always been my backbone and encouraged me to move ahead. Just when I thought I knew her well enough by now,</span></p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Rana narrated an anecdote to me, which she says was an eye-opener of sorts for her.Due to my penchant for seeking women rights, my husband once wondered if he has deprived me of anything in life. It made me wake up to a realisation that I need to be more sensitive towards people who are dearest to me, she recounts. A complete believer in putting her time to good use, Rana signs off on a defining note,I have to constantly work towards ensuring that I am worth my being which makes it all the more important for me to have my own identity.&nbsp;</span></p>',

<p>
	<span style="font-size:12px;">The entire business community is yearning for a favourable investment climate. Each and every business house and enterprise is waiting for the moment that is unlikely to arrive anytime soon. Sandeep Sharda, the Director of Sharda Group, one of the largest business houses of Nepal, is not pessimistic though about the situation but prefers to play it safe like his peers in the business community. He says he is not so comfortable in venturing into new projects and making any significant moves other than keeping the current ventures alive.</span></p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:12px;">The conglomerate has interests in manufacturing and trading of industrial goods to consumer durables and nondurables. The journey of Sharda Group began with garment trading almost 100 years ago. Real success of the group began after Shardaâ€™s great grandfather established a rice mill at Lahan in 1948. The success of the company began with this very business. Sharda has been involved in the family business since his 18th birthday. Being the eldest son in the family, he has given his all to take the family business ahead. Today, the group has an annual turnover of more than US $ 150 million.</span></p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Pioneer Carpet Industries, Shangrila Housing, Bajra Shangrila Residency, Infratech and Shivam Cement Industries are some of the companies Sharda oversees that are either established by him individually or under joint ventures. Born in an industrial family, doing business was in his blood and during his school days, he dreamt of having his own business.</span></p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><img align="middle" alt="personality" border="5" height="243" hspace="4" src="http://newbusinessage.com/ckfinder/userfiles/Images/1stof.jpg" style="margin:10px;padding:10px;" vspace="4" width="300" /></span></p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:12px;">A television set used to be the object of desire those days, he says. So, I wanted to import and sell gadgets like TVs and VCRs, he adds. Sharda was pursuing his college degree in Kolkata when he had to return back to Nepal since his father was unwell. His brothers were young and studying abroad. So, being the eldest son, he had the responsibility to take care of his father and the business. Sharda successfully took up the responsibilities on his shoulders and became occupied. In the bargain, he could not pursue his education further than the bachelor level. Sharda began his career as a business person in the early 1990s.</span></p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:12px;">The lucrative returns from carpet trading lured him to indulge further in the trade. He says the returns and travel opportunities created by carpet trading made him choose this sector. His first venture, now named Pioneer Carpet Industries, was a success for young Sharda as the carpet industry was booming and its export was at the peak. He claims, I became one of the largest exporters in Nepal and was felicitated with numerous awards by the government including Commercially Important Person within seven to eight years. His success in carpet trading inspired him to venture into many other businesses in the future. After Pioneer Carpets, he started importing reconditioned cars from Japan in 1994 which, unfortunately, did not yield profits to him. â€œI believe in destiny and I thought it was not meant for me so I dropped the project,' he admits nonchalantly. Sharda prefers joint ventures. He explains, You cannot think and do everything on your own. It's good to have likeminded people with whom you can share your ideas and visions and produce something great.'In partnership with his close friends, he has set up housing projects like Shangrila Housing and Bajra Shangrila and the largest cement industry of Nepal, Shivam Cement, which is soon going to begin operations.</span></p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Living in a joint family where every member is passionate about business, decisions are made jointly. He says, 'Nobody decides alone in our family, we talk to each other, share ideas and discuss in detail before reaching any decision.' Sharda believes that the business focus should be on ensuring a good turnover. He suggests that an aggressive attitude does help achieve business goals. 'Where there is an opportunity for profit, there will be a chance of making loss too,' he says. Sharda recommends aspiring entrepreneurs to be practical and believes everything can be achieved with hard work, dedication and by setting a clear goal. According to him, there are no alternatives to sincerity, honesty and punctuality which are essential for registering success.</span></p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Even though success in any business is determined by profit and turnover, he opines that success is not only about making a huge amount of money. He philosophises, 'Success is also about giving back to the people in the society in the form of employment or offering them the best products and services with honesty and sincerity. There are so many other things that are much valuable than money itself.' Sharda trusts his colleagues much and believes in assigning appropriate roles to people working with him. He maintains a close relationship with his employees and keeps himself updated about everything. 'I talk to each person every day, talk to the team leaders and get reports and feedback,' he tells. He likes to maintain a distance between his personal and professional lives. He spends around nine hours for his work and prefers to have after hours and weekends for his family and kids. 'I have two wonderful children and it is good to see them growing up. The moments I spend with my family are more fun than my work but business is my profession and I love running it, he proudly states. He also loves to spend time with friends, listen to music, watch movies and attend parties when possible.</span></p>
<p>
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Likewise, he likes to travel and considers himself fortunate to have travelled many countries for his vacations and business trips. Sharda is also involved in philanthropy and is an active member of Kathmandu Metro Round Table 4, an international organisation. Our slogan is Freedom through education and we build school buildings in various parts of Nepal as well as sponsor needy children through fund raising,â€ he says.&nbsp;</span></p>

I am not currently happy with the pace this sector is moving at, he expresses his displeasure. He is on a wait and watch mode and does not have any new projects lined up in the foreseeable future. Doing business is a very challenging proposition at the moment so I am just giving continuity to my current ventures, he shares. He dreams of achieving the kind of success which he thinks he has not tasted yet. And that's precisely why he prays for a suitable business environment as soon as possible.&nbsp; <br />

	<img align="right" alt="" border="1" hspace="5" src="http://newbusinessage.com/ckfinder/userfiles/Images/golcha.jpg" style="width: 339px; height: 589px; margin: 10px; padding: 10px;" vspace="5" />Young , dynamic and a businessman at heart, Hemant Golchha is the Executive Director of Golchha Organisation, a leading corporate house of Nepal with a nearly 100 year long history. He is one of the successful young entrepreneurs who dreams success for his ventures and goes about achieving them. Ram Lal Golchha, the great grandfather of Hemant Golchha, sowed the seeds of Golchha Organisation almost a hundred years ago. He started the business with exporting jute from Nepal to industries in India. The business gave him lucrative returns and inspired to venture into other projects. Golchha says that his great grandfather had played an important role in establishing the first industry of the nation&nbsp; Biratnagar Jute Mill. Ram Lal Golchha established his own jute industry followed by steel industries. </p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
	 </p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
	He never looked back and a perpetual growth always followed the Golchhas. Hemant Golchha is a fourth generation businessman and his five younger brothers have also joined the business. He has put his efforts with new vision and thoughts to steer the family business in new areas. He has the promise to lead the organisation with the same dignity and success that his earlier generations had achieved. Golchha grew up in a close-knit joint family and his childhood was not completely different than any other child's. He recalls having fun during the days when relatives gathered at home for festivals. He says, It was a lot of fun and I enjoyed growing up in a joint family. We used to have a good time with school friends as there was nothing to worry about. He would visit Biratnagar for festivals where half of his family members were living. </p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
	 </p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
	Despite being from a privileged family, he was taught to be honest, humble, simple, truthful and unpretentious about being wealthy. Our modest ways made sure that the family enjoyed a certain level of respect in the community. We never ran businesses solely for the purpose of making money, says Golchha. Golchha completed his schooling from St Xavier's School at Jawalakhel and then attended St Joseph's College of Commerce in Bangalore for his intermediate and undergraduate degrees. He regrets that he could not pursue a master's degree once he started shouldering business responsibilities. He recommends youngsters to complete studies before joining business. </p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
	Once you get involved with a business, it is difficult to find time, he reasons. After returning from Bangalore, he spent around two years training with various industries in Nepal and Australia and joined his family's business in 1992 at the age of 24. G o l c h h a w a s g i v e n t h e responsibility of managing Koshi Metal, a tin container manufacturing industry in Biratnagar. To his credit, he successfully made it a profitable proposition from being a loss bearing industry. In his much younger days, he aspired to be like his great grandfather. </p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
	I always wanted to be like him and follow the path he has shown&nbsp; the path of integrity, dedication, honesty and no compromise between business and hard work, he explains. Vijay Mallya, a celebrity businessperson from India inspired him to live life king size and enjoy the wealth earned from business. It is not a bad thing to enjoy our earnings. He was one of my idols during my college days because of his lifestyle, says Golchha. He believes he was destined to be a business person since he was born in a business family. Everything moved gradually in the direction it was supposed to move and entering the business was his obvious goal. Golchha's maternal grandfather and uncle were into film making which has ignited a desire in him to turn a filmmaker some day. I have not thought about making movies as a profession but only as a hobby. I will definitely make a movie some day, he states enthusiastically. </p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
	He was also active in motorsports during his college days that speak volume for his versatility. He asserts even if he was not born in a business family, he would have still pursued a career in business. Though, of course, he credits his family for what he is today and acknowledges that his business lineage made his job that much easier. Golchha's career that began with container manufacturing continued with added responsibility in other sectors as well. He was assigned to lead Shree Ram Sugar Mill in Rautahat since 1994. He made a historic move in the family's business by making inroads into remittance, tourism and housing sectors that were never part of business with Golchha Organisation. Equal to 25 per cent of Nepal's GDP is received in the country as remittance and another 25 per cent is from travel and tourism. If you do not have a presence in the areas that are equal to some 50 per cent of the nation's GDP, you cannot call yourself a large business house. This is what influenced my decision to venture into these areas, he says. Hulas Remittance has become one of the largest Western Union agents and figured among top ten money transfer companies in the country within five years of its commencing operations. </p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
	<br />
	Golchha started a travel and tour company last year, Travel World Experiences, which focuses on inbound tours. He is optimistic that it too will prove to be a successful venture in due time. Meanwhile, he also decided to make a foray into the real estate sector in association with a few friends which resulted in the establishment of Shangrila Housing. Golchha believes that maintaining a leading position largely depends on performance. He says, You might do very well one year but you may not do so well the next. He is dedicated and focused to make sure that his businesses attain success and has no desire to hog the limelight. I want my projects to be more recognised than myself. My total joy lies in the success of my business ventures and the positions they hold in the market. Travel opportunities that come as part of doing business is one of the most charming aspects, he says.<br />
	<br />
	I also enjoy being at my office and like working with the team members who are more like my friends, he states. The financial crunch being experienced by the economy worries him a great deal and this is one aspect he does not like about doing business. With a very forthright vision about doing business, he philosophises, If I don't enjoy doing a particular business, I will rather do something else. Golchha believes that employees are the soul of a company and having a good team is essential for its success. If you compromise while putting together a team, your business will never succeed. We are only entrepreneurs and without a good team, we cannot do everything on our own, he says. He is of the opinion that it is important to provide good remuneration and environment for motivating the human resource. He says, It is vital to give people a sense of belonging.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">
	<br />
	He prefers to decide from the heart while dealing with colleagues, employees and customers. A workaholic during the initial days of his career, he has now changed his working style somewhat due to added family responsibilities. He gives a lot of time to his family and returns home early to spend quality time with his two children. He also plans a holiday every year with his family to explore a new destination. Likewise, he also takes out time for his friends and likes to hang out with them at coffee shops. Golchha likes to watch entertaining movies and listen to Hindi music during his free time and also plays games with his kids. He is quite a party animal and usually spends his Friday evenings at different parties booked by friends. He hits the gym regularly and runs for around half an hour every day. He has a long list to do before he dies. Going on a long road trip from Kathmandu to Europe via Iraq, Iran and the exotic lands, is one of them.</p>',

<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Gyanendra Bhakta Joshi, Managing Director of Swift Air, is determined to touch the sky with his dream project. It is his passion for aircraft and tourism that drove Joshi to set up his own airline. He says he decided to venture into the airline sector to set a milestone in the aviation market.<br />
	<br />

	<div style="text-align: justify;">

		</strong></span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Once on the day of Vijaya Dashami, Gyanendra Bhakta Joshi's elder brother blessed him that he would own an airline one day. While working with Skyline Airlines that is not in existence today, Joshi secretly wished he would have a company of his own. His dream got a new life after meeting Bishnu Prasad Khadgi, now his friend and business partner.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><br />
	</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Joshi is Managing Director (MD) of Swift Air Nepal Pvt Ltd, a newly established domestic airline. Swift Air is planning to commence its operations from October. He said that the company is bringing in two aircraft in first phase. Of these two, the first one is to arrive in October. Joshi, enthusiastic about making his dream project come alive, is spending day and night just to make sure that his dream is realised.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><br />
	</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">It was in the alleys of Ason that Joshi wandered around as a child. Though his ancestors were from Bhaktapur, his grandfathers moved to Kathmandu. He went to St Xavier's School Godavary and later transferred to Ananda Kuti Vidyapeeth at Swayambhu, where he completed his schooling. He credits St Xavier's for making his academic base strong. Joshi graduated in Commerce from Shankar Dev Campus.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><br />
	</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">His family had a hardware store at Ason. Joshi's father and grandfathers had dedicated their life entirely to business. But his uncles took to the service industry. Joshi followed their footsteps and landed in the tourism sector.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><br />
	</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">He began his career from assistant level in Everest Express Tours and Travels around 25 years ago. That was my first job and I was paid Rs 400 a month, he recalls. In the following years, he worked in Pristine Travels, Tiger Tops Resort and even USAID. Then, I entered the aviation sector with Skyline Airlines in a managerial position, he shares his journey to the airlines business. He has even worked as Sales Manager with GMG Airlines of Bangladesh. I like this sector, so, now I am fully into it, says Joshi. He says his career in the tourism, travel and airlines helped him develop a passion for these areas. Joshi reveals, he is obsessed with aircraft and often visits websites of Boeing and Airbus to update himself with the latest developments and innovations. Now, I have my own aviation company because of that passion, he boasts. Joshi is proud that he has made his brother's blessings become a reality.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><br />
	</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Joshi counts Skyline's Executive Director Dorje Sherpa as his aviation guru. Whatever I have learned, I learned it from him. I express my gratitude to him for what I have become today, he acknowledges. The aviation know-how did not easily make him the MD of Swift Air. Joshi's hard work, dedication and struggles have paid off.&nbsp;</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><br />
	</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">It was three years back that Joshi had thought of setting up an airline and he even started working towards that. Unfortunately, it did not turn into reality. After one and a half years, he met Bishnu Prasad Khadgi who is now Executive Chairman of Swift Air. With one year of homework they received AOC (Air Operator's Certificate).&nbsp;Joshi's two sons who are living overseas are happy to know about their father's venture.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><br />
	</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Khadgi is his only business partner now. Though they had targeted to fly from January 2011, they are now planning for an October launch. Cost is too heavy as it requires setting up offices in every destination. However, this also creates job opportunity in every destination we reach. I feel proud to give employment to more people, he says.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><br />
	</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Joshi says his company will have around 70 staff members in the beginning. According to Joshi, good incentives and listening to their complaints will motivate staff. He feels that boss is not always right. Joshi thinks staff is the asset of a company. I advise and assist my staff as and when required. I will treat all my staff equally, he shares his human resource management principle. He believes in giving opportunity to new comers too.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><br />
	</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Joshi does not believe in interfering much in the office management. Although, he wants the line of communication maintained.We just want to know what employees are doing. They must also feel that they are working for their own company and we believe they will. When the company prospers, they will prosper too, he opines.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><br />
	</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Joshi does not have much to complain about the aviation policy of Nepal. However he is dissatisfied with air traffic problems. He urges the government to find a solution as soon as possible. He sees a good future and market prospect for the travel industry. He reveals this is one of the reasons behind establishing his airline business. He observes that the tourism sector is growing more every year and he wishes it to boom in the future. According to Joshi, aviation industry is doing well. He says, We established the company with the motto: Let's be a part of aviation team in Nepal.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><br />
	</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Joshi has already thought of expanding the business in the future. However, he and Khadgi do not have plans to do it within two years. They want to first sustain in the competitive market. After two years, we will go for expansion,he discloses.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><br />
	</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">I am more focused on my dream project, he says with a touch of grit. At least 12 hours of his day is spent in work. Joshi says he gets time for his family only during mealtime. However, on Saturdays, when he is mostly on leisure, he loves to go on a drive with his wife. Apart from that, his free time is spent meeting with relatives, staying at home, watching TV or listening to music. He does not usually travel but he promises to do so as his new venture will require him to travel. At times, Joshi feels lonely when his sons are not with him. He says being away from sons have become his part of life. Joshi lives with his wife at Sitapaila.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><br />
	</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Joshi does not have regrets about his career. He feels he is happy with what his life has given him. I have settled down and I possess everything I need, he expresses contentment. The only regret he has from his life is that he could not save his mother who was suffering from cancer. He took her to the best hospitals in Mumbai and Delhi but she could not be saved. That was the saddest part in our life: for me and my family. It has been almost 15 years, but still I feel like crying when I remember those times, he gets sentimental.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;"><br />
	</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Joshi's life is closely knit with his profession and his dream project.&nbsp;His wishes, his dreams are associated with his newly established company. I just want to see Swift Air growing.&nbsp;The more it grows, the more people will be employed. And, I wish we could add more aircraft to the fleet, he says.</span></div>

He recalls the range of luxuries available at his home those days bullock cart, horses, maids and servants. During his college days, Dugar used to ride a Honda 250cc motorcycle imported from Japan. He remembers the first family car a Land Rover. During his student days, he was one of the good students in class though he never stood among the top three. Sport was not his cup of tea either. However, as a child, he was fond of traditional children's games like marbles and <i>dandi biyo</i> among others.</span></div>

	<span style="font-size:12px;">He was in his early teens when he began working in his family business. At the age of around 17, he took up full responsibility and started looking after some of his companies. At that time, Dugars were in a joint family and living in Biratnagar. His elder Brother Tola Ram Dugar was looking after the business after their father died. After Tola Ram Dugar passed away in May 2011, Moti Lal has taken over the lead of the TM Dugar Group. Moti Lal was just 11 when his father passed away. Young Dugar began his career at the textile shop. Gradually, he started visiting industries and understood the knots and bolts of handling a business. He took up the responsibility from keeping accounts to making contracts, looking after exports, export-import contracts and even LCs. The initial business of the Dugars was textiles and agro products. The business was later expanded to jute export, steel factory, rice mills and others.</span></div>

	<span style="font-size:12px;">The process of expansion in fact never stopped. In the same course, the family shifted to Kathmandu. The family business was sector-wise divided among four brothers. Among those, Moti Lal got the automobiles business for which he was working since the beginning. It has been four decades since he began working in this sector. Now, he is also a specialist in automobile, banking and insurance. He is planning to venture into hydropower. The Dugar group has always been the leading industrial group of Nepal. Dugar is content with the growth and development of the company. He says, â€œOur family always aimed at taking the business to next level. So far, we are satisfactorily moving ahead. We are successful in maintaining the leadership position in every business we ventured into.He adds that his company has been successful in sticking to its principle. Maintaining the status achieved in the course of 127 years is what Dugar feels is a matter of satisfaction and an achievement in itself. </span></div>

	<span style="font-size:12px;">He feels he inherited the success that was accomplished by his parents and senior family members. He gives the credit of his company's success to them, especially his eldest brother late Tolaram Dugar whom his regards as high as his father not only as elder brother. More importantly, he feels he inherited the trust and belief of Nepali people in his group. He expresses pleasure to be born as a business person. He does not have any regrets about having the career that he thinks was destined for him. According to Dugar, job satisfaction is the most pleasing aspect of the business.</span></div>

	<span style="font-size:12px;">Dugar claims that honesty is the everlasting principle of the Dugar group. Dugar explains, <img align="right" alt="intreview" border="1" height="331" hspace="10" src="http://newbusinessage.com/ckfinder/userfiles/Images/sep-per1.jpg" style="margin:10px;paading:10px;" vspace="10" width="400" />â€œHigh degree of honesty must be maintained. Customers should not be cheated. A business can never sustain without customer's trust. The group has been working with such vision and belief.Dugar believes clients are the incarnation of Goddess Laxmi Goddess of wealth and she should not be cheated. He says thanks to such principles, the group is valued high in the market today.</span></div>

	<span style="font-size:12px;">For Dugar, profit, loss or big money is not the measure of success. He says, There are many other groups who have more money than us. We began from scratch and achieved this status. We are satisfied with this. Our business image has never been lower than others and that has been a matter of pride for us. He identifies success in the manner the people recognise and trust the group. Profit and loss is something that keeps changing but the recognition does not and it will lead to profit and stability of the company. He feels his next generation has a ready path shown by the long history of the group. They don't have to work too hard. They just need to add cherry on top, he says. Fifth generation of the Dugar family his grandchildren will soon join the business after their education.</span></div>

	<span style="font-size:12px;">The group that was initially into the food grain and agro based industries stepped into the service industry through banking and insurance around five years back. Dugar sees the future of Nepal in three areas hydropower, tourism and agriculture. He says Nepal cannot compete with India and China with a high cost of production by subsidising industries with a bundle of discounts and waivers. Although the Dugar group does not have any plans to venture into tourism sector, it will soon be developing hydroelectricity projects. The group is planning to develop more than 170 Megawatts of hydroelectricity in the near future. Pan Himalaya Energy Pvt Ltd, Global Hydro Power Associate Pvt Ltd and Numbur Himalaya Hydropower Pvt Ltd have been established by the group for&nbsp;tapping hydropower potentials in the country. He thinks hydropower is a money-making industry that has huge export potentials although it is a capital-intensive sector. He says hydropower is liked by the world for its environmental benefits and sustainability.</span></div>

	<span style="font-size:12px;">On Nepal's failure to develop hydroelectricity sector despite huge potentials, Dugar says, All political parties must have genuine commitment for the development of the nation. Everyone must shed his leg-pulling attitude and should respect others' ideas if they benefit the nation. Such massive projects will not be possible without foreign investors. They must be welcomed anyhow. Investment worth billions of rupees will not come just with phoney speeches.</span></div>

He says human resource is the real capital of any company. So, we provide handsome salary as motivation. People working here have a distinct and prestigious life, he says. He reveals that employees are quite steady with the companies. He shares numerous examples of people working in the group for as long as three generations.</span></div>

	<span style="font-size:12px;">Dugar says he does not have uber luxury in life. He likes to lead a simple life and does not have any luxurious demands. Dugar gets up at six in the morning and goes to health club. For remaining healthy, he exercises everyday and is conscious about food habits. After having breakfast, he goes to his office between 10 and 10:30 in the morning and returns home at around 8 pm. He does not have much interest in social parties and rather feels annoyed if he has to frequently attend them. He thinks partying more than once a week is too much. He loves watching television, chatting with family, reading newspapers and listening to music. These are his favourite pastimes. He does not work on Saturdays. His mornings and evenings are dedicated to his family.</span></div>

	<span style="font-size:12px;">When he has to suggest anyone who wants to follow his footsteps, he says: Do anything with dedication, focus and honesty. Do not dive into anything seeing someone else making profit. It is wise to focus on expanding what you already have. The competition is so tough so you must be careful while investing. You may lose your hard earned money. In this regards, I am quite conservative.</span></div>

	<span style="font-size:12px;">When it comes to charity and philanthropy, he believes in building hospitals rather than building a temple. When we have some problems (health) we need hospitals as temples cannot cure us. Building a hospital is more spiritual than a temple. It does not mean I am atheist but I believe more people will benefit from a hospital,â€ he opines. He adds hospital is for service while a temple is for satisfaction. A hospital built by his late elder brother has been handed over to Koshi Zonal Hospital in Biratnagar.</span></div>

	<span style="font-size:12px;">Born in a farmers family, Ramesh Maharjan is known as a successful entrepreneur who has taken his business to international levels. His jewellery business has expanded to USA. Today, he is Chairman of Maharjan Group that owns five companies - Nepal Diamond Company, RB Diamond Jewellers, Nenergy International, NB Nepal Builders and Maya Foundation. These companies are active in manufacturing, export and retail business of diamond jewelleries, energy, construction and even social welfare.</span></div>

	<span style="font-size:12px;">He has three jewellery stores in USA. He has recently diversified his business through the Maharjan Group that he established some years ago. R B Diamond Jewellers is the manufacturer, wholesaler and exporter of diamond jewelleries while Nepal Diamond Company deals in diamond and gold. Nenergy International is working in the area of developing hydroelectricity. Similarly, his company NB Nepal Builders is into the housing sector while through Maya Foundation he is involved in&nbsp;welfare of differently-abled people. Likewise, Maharjan is also Chairman of Nepal Gems and Jewellery Association and is associated with various organisations and associations.</span></div>

	<span style="font-size:12px;">Maharjan's childhood was largely spent in the agricultural milieu. His parents were farmers in Lalitpur but they had a sense that their children must go to school and get education. He passed his School Leaving Certificate from Namuna Machhindra School at Lagankhel. He passed Intermediate from Patan Campus. However, he did not take his education further.</span></div>

	<span style="font-size:12px;">Maharjan and his family did not see their farm leading them anywhere. â€œI did not see any future there,he says. Since my childhood I thought of doing things differently and in the best possible way.Maharjan says business was sitting deeply in his mind. He was concentrating on agriculture thinking he will land a good job some day.&nbsp;Apart from his works in the field, he was active in the local clubs, libraries, and in the locality and even won a local election. At times, he thought of going for foreign employment as well.</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 14.15pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;">

<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 14.15pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">His young romantic days were going on. Then, his family insisted him to get married. Though young Maharjan was determined to make his dreams come true before tying the nuptial knot, he surrendered to his family and married Sarita Maharjan with whom he was in love. Sarita turned out to be his lady luck. At that time, he was just 18. Sarita's family was in Hong Kong. Maharjan's in-laws invited him to Hong Kong as they thought there is not much scope in the country. Then, he took a job in Hong Kong at a wholesale company of diamonds as a helper.</span></div>

	<span style="font-size:12px;">He proved his honesty and won the confidence of the bosses. So, he was gradually given more tasks of messenger and even handling banking transactions. They even tested my greed and left thousands of dollars in open drawers when I was the only person in the office. Next morning, they used to cross-check. I never thought of betraying them but was dedicated to perform well to get more salary in a legitimate way, he narrates how he passed the tests.</span></div>

	<span style="font-size:12px;">Working for the whole day had a benefit that he never felt homesick. He claims he worked from 5 am to midnight so that he can sleep quietly at night and does not have to miss his family back home. He was always conscious and determined that one day he has to return to Nepal. While in Hong Kong, he developed the interest in diamonds and also thought of taking something back. Then, he requested his employer to get him some training so that he can learn about diamonds. He says, My boss was a friendly person and he used to help us with everything as he understood we the foreigners will return if we were not given proper facilities. He was also happy to see my eagerness developing for diamonds and arranged for a basic training from the very next day. After completing his works in the office, he would go for training from 9 pm to 11 pm. </span></div>

	<span style="font-size: 12px;"><br />
	Maharjan shares, I acquired basic knowledge on types, grading and assorting diamonds. Then, I requested my employers for further trainings. Later, he was sent to Mumbai for a six-month training at the company's factory for cutting, grading and polishing. I was there just to gain knowledge on diamonds. So, I did not even cross the railway station and kept myself fully focussed on my training. In the beginning, I felt quite uncomfortable as I did not even know how to hold a diamond properly. Gradually, I learned everything, he recalls. </span></div>

<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 14.15pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">There too he spent the whole day pondering over the diamonds. He claims he grabbed things quickly and could separate colours within two weeks. As he learnt things he also started working there though he was not being paid. At the end of six months training, he was found to be performing&nbsp;well like veterans of the industry, he claims. When he returned to Hong Kong, the company's views about him changed. He was promoted to sales department. However, he did not stop learning while on the job. He says, For a couple of years more, I learnt from the market on pricing and quality and even on the ways of marketing.</span></div>

	<span style="font-size:12px;">After staying for around seven years in Hong Kong, he decided to return to the country as the family also asked him to do so. When he returned, he was not alone. He had knowledge, skills and even money to invest in the business of his own. For three months, he carried out a kind of market survey, leaving no jewellery shops unvisited. In three months, he found expertise missing from the sector in his country. The way of working was not appropriate either. Then, I felt in markets like Nepal, such valuable things can only be sold with a guarantee and not as use-and-throw item, he says.<br />
	<br />
	</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 14.15pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">He sees a lot of artisans and craftsmen&nbsp;here but their ways of working worry&nbsp;him. Maharjan believes that best masterpieces can be created in Nepal itself, which will have the potential to be sold anywhere in the world. I encourage people in this business to create fusion of our traditional knowledge with the modernity, he says. He does not see any competition in the field of creativity.</span></div>

<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 14.15pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;">
	<span style="font-size:12px;">Maharjan has always prioritised doing something new than simply following what others are doing in the crowd. That is the mantra to be on the top, he believes. Then, he initiated manufacturing in a professional manner as he was not satisfied with the quality of locally-made jewelleries.</span></div>

	<span style="font-size:12px;">For Maharjan, business is more than profit and margins. He believes jewellery business cannot sustain without goodwill and trust. He describes, Customers must be assured that they will get back cash upon returning the products. My target is to do marketing through quality rather than advertisements. Maybe, that is why he claims that he has never advertised his jewellery store or even kept a billboard with the showroom's name. He claims he gets customers through trust and goodwill gained by selling quality products.</span></div>

	<span style="font-size:12px;">Maharjan sees the jewellery market growing in the last four years with a definite change in lifestyle of people in Nepal. In the past, only head of the family used to earn but now everyone makes some earnings. They can afford what they desire for. Rather than copying others, now people want something unique to look different,he explains. He adds that it is Nepali culture to invest in jewelleries and houses as&nbsp;assets rather than luxury.</span></div>

	<span style="font-size:12px;">Maharjan says he is very much satisfied with what he is doing. His business philosophy based on service rather than just selling precious metals has grown multinational. He has stores at Manhattan Fifth Avenue, Alaska and a distribution point in Los Angeles. In 2005 the first store was opened in USA on his wife's insistence. Now, Maharjan's in-laws are looking after the stores there. We wanted to see how it works outside and we had that confidence too. We were overwhelmed by the response of people when we put up a stall for the first time at a programme organised by Nepalis in America,he proudly shares. He claims he sold jewelleries worth US$ 10 thousand within half an hour. Then, the first store in Manhattan was opened with the help of the company where he worked in Hong Kong. He says he still has good relations with the company, where he learnt the tricks of the trade. Now, the major export destination of finished diamond products from Nepal is the US itself and these products are exported through R B Diamond Jewellers.</span></div>

I believe good people should prosper and succeed. I take care of their comfort and satisfaction,he shares his ways of motivating staff. He says problems are sorted out by discussing them. He has also given them assurance that they don't have to worry about their family's health and education. Maharjan also claims that he can't bear the sad faces of employees and cares that they don't get hurt.</span></div>

In his free time, Maharjan concentrates on the designs and obtaining more knowledge in the stones. He is currently busy designing for the 2012 collections. He says he can ponder over a stone for hours. Apart from that, he also likes to read spiritual books and contemplate on spiritual aspects of life. Maharjan says he is content with what he has got and does not think much about himself and his luxurious wish list. Even during leisure he plans about his companies. He says his family has always been with him even in the business so he feels lucky that he does not have to fight over managing time.</span></div>

	<span style="color:#000;"><span style="font-size: 12px;">Suresh Kumar Basnet stepped into the world of business with Rs 7,000 back in 1979. For Basnet, that was a big money managed all by himself to start his business. At that time, he saw demand for fancy clothes, watches, photography equipment, typewriters in the cities of the plain like Bhairahawa, Biratnagar and other places. I supplied those goods from the wholesalers in Kathmandu to these cities,he shares the story behind the inception of his business and career. Basnet gained experience and knowledge about his business with time from the people in his fraternity. He was not hesitant to shift to those goods and businesses that offered lucrative returns.</span></span></div>

	<span style="color:#000;"><span style="font-size: 12px;">Basnet was born in Kathmandu in 1955. His family was a working class family. It was around 1960 that his family bought a piece of land in Chitwan. Young Basnet shifted to Chitwan in 1962 where he completed his school education. We had an extended family and since we were financially weak we decided to shift to Chitwan, Basnet clarifies. He adds, There I learnt to be a hard-working man. I took to farming, did household chores and saw myself being shifted from one place to another with the passage of time. He emotionally says that in Chitwan he could realise what the hardship is and what the joys are the two realities of life.<br />

	<span style="color:#000;"><span style="font-size: 12px;">Basnet proudly claims that in his student days, he was quite a good student. Apart from his studies, he was fond of playing football, volleyball, badminton and chess. He was counted as one of the best players of the district those days.</span></span></div>

	<span style="color:#000;"><span style="font-size: 12px;">After graduating the School Leaving Certificate, he came back to Kathmandu with a dream of becoming a doctor. To pursue his dream, he joined Amrit Science Campus. However he was forced to take up physics as he could not study Biology in his high school in the absence of a biology teacher. Basnet largely relied on lectures as books were so rare and expensive those days. He recalls how he had to wait for months for a book in the college library. During his exam time, his fate took a different turn. He fainted while appearing for his exams. I had to leave my studies for around six months because of my illness. When I returned to college, my principal said that I have missed the course and asked me to start afresh next year,Basnet says. Meanwhile, his relatives advised him to change the subject and&nbsp;study commerce rather than waiting for the next session.</span></span></div>

He later completed his graduation from Shankardev Campus in business studies. While pursuing his business studies, Basnet somewhere felt that he should polish his entrepreneur skills and start doing something on his own.I established a firm for import-export, he shares his early days. Basnet picked up business fundamentals from his brother's friend who ran a company in Putalisadak. Basnet was around 26 when he started his business. A lot of hard work in the years that followed earned me vital business contacts that helped me in my export-import business, he reveals. At that time Basnet used to deal with the third-country goods but he claims he never dealt with cheap goods from Khasa, China. He opened an LC account to make his export-import business a formal one.&nbsp;Basnet usually dealt in items with seasonal demands like dry fruits and readymade garments during major festivals like Dashain and Tihar. Apart from that he also tried dealing with photography goods, motor parts, ball bearings and later on even in vehicles. He admits that often he had to bear losses for not having enough experience and expertise. He adds, I thought of getting into industries. I was into garments, carpet, and pashmina. In the pashmina business, I incurred losses as well as made profits over the years His markets for these products were Japan, Korea and USA. He shares, I gained experience by doing the things. I learnt the nitty-gritty of business and kept on reworking on my strategies. I always received support from my family. My better-half is just like my business partner.</span></span></div>

	<span style="color:#000;"><span style="font-size: 12px;">Basnet has passed three decades in the business world. He thinks profit and loss are defined by the nature of business, time and environment, politics, dedication to work and a touch of luck. Sometimes despite hard work, enough investment and favourable time, some circumstances and luck may lead to failure,Basnet opines. Apart from profit and loss, business has taught me honesty, duty to pay taxes to the state, and to have patience and take risk, he says.</span></span></div>

	<span style="color:#000;"><span style="font-size: 12px;">Today Basnet has stopped importing and focuses only on export. I am looking for ways to export our products to other countries. I am targeting the US market though recession has bruised&nbsp;its demands. However, I have not stopped exporting pashmina, silver jewellery, handicraft, copper goods, small statues and carpets, he expresses determination. Basnet is looking forward to investing in hydroelectricity too. I am also searching for feasible products that can be produced with local raw materials and which has the market prospect within Nepal like dairy products,he adds.</span></span></div>

	<span style="color:#000;"><span style="font-size: 12px;">When he began his business, Basnet managed the investment from his own sources but today he feels the presence of commercial banks has eased financing for any project. About managing capital, he says he revolves the fund between industries and companies as and when required.</span></span></div>

After working for a long time, some sense of brotherhood develops among the staff,he opines. He says employees salary is based on the ratio of profit made by the company but he ensures that people working in his companies are well taken care of in all respects including financial distress.We respect honesty, dedication and hard work of employees so that they can develop a sense of ownership towards their workplace.</span></span></div>

	<span style="color:#000;"><span style="font-size: 12px;">Basnet feels that he struggled throughout his life alone. His sons have always stayed away from home either for their studies or for their job. But we always have a cordial relationship with each other. I have given time to my family as much as possible. Previously, we used to spend quality time together at least once a month and every winter we used to visit some places within Nepal, he revealed the way he takes out time for his family. He thinks giving time to family means giving time to self also.</span></span></div>

At the end of the day, experience that he gathered maters to him much than the the status of profit and loss accounts. As any other human being, I also thought of making money but for that I never compromised with the business ethics, he proudly says. I never lied or cheated anybody and I always paid back the loans borrowed from the banks. That gives me immense satisfaction when I look back at my career.</span></span></div>

	<span style="color:#000;"><span style="font-size: 12px;">For the last 17 years, he has immersed himself into spiritual contemplation. He says, There is only one truth that is our soul and God. What we see with our eyes is nothing but illusion. Every morning, he meditates and ponders over spirituality for two hours. Basnet claims that NCC is also a kind of social organisation that has spent 58 years for the welfare of small, big and medium industries without any greed. He is also involved with a religious institution. I participate in some spiritual activities as religion is an integral part of our culture. My aim is to interact with the soul. I think our physical body is just like a mirage in the desert or the rope seen as a snake in dim light, he becomes saintly. </span></span></div>

I know that exercise is needed to keep myself healthy but I have not been successful to manage time for it. But I do light exercises related to breathing and limbs every day for around half an hour, he revealed. I have some health problems but due to my spiritual inclination, they have not caused many problems to me, he claimed. Apart from that, he likes reading spiritual books, economic news and articles, occasionally watch family and social movies and TV channels like Discovery, National Geographic that air new and interesting things. He admits that he spends more time in spiritual contemplation. He feels his body has grown too old to indulge in any sports now.</span></span></div>

	<span style="font-size: 12px;">B</span><span style="font-size: 9.5pt;">orn into Rana aristocracy, Umang SJB Rana, the CEO of Westar Properties did not have life served on a platter for him. Not that his family couldn't afford so, it was because his parents wanted to instil earthly values in him right since his childhood. Rana expresses his gratitude for the same, I am what I am today largely because of my parents and the values they taught me.</span></div>

<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 14.15pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle; text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size: 9.5pt;">The first child of Former Deputy Inspector General of Nepal Police Rupal SJB Rana and Montessori Teacher Usha Rana, he went to Dipendra Police School (which is now Nepal Police School), Sanga. Rana considers himself blessed to have travelled the length and breadth of Nepal, Being a policeman, my father relocated frequently to different parts of Nepal. I visited no less than 13 zones myself during my school vacations.&nbsp;</span></div>

	<span style="font-size: 9.5pt;">His father wanted at least one of his two sons to join the defence forces but young Umang had different ideas in mind. After completing his A-Level from Nagarjuna Academy and ISc from St Xavier's College, Rana left for Russia to study Civil Engineering. But he left the study midway and returned home two years later. I just couldn't complete it. I fell home sick, he admits in a near apologetic tone. Back in Nepal, he began pursuing Bachelor of Business Studies degree with specialisation in Human Resource. While still in college, Rana landed his first paid job a month long stint with Surya Tobacco Company (now Surya Nepal) for its product introduction. I was on the streets promoting the new product to the passers-by and asking them to try it. Each day, they will send me to a new location, he reminisces. </span></div>

<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 14.15pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;">
	<span style="font-size: 9.5pt;">An introvert since early childhood, Rana had quite a few female acquaintances but never a serious relationship. He is happily married for seven years now and has a two-year-old son. You ask him about his school friends and he goes, Most of my friends from school are settled abroad. But I do come across the ones that are still here.Rana's wife Aashmi who owns Himali Pashmina Udyog was instrumental in goading him to turn a businessman. He says, I am lucky to have her as my life partner. She inspired me to take up business for a profession.</span></div>

	<span style="font-size: 9.5pt;">Venturing into business ended his career as a DHL executive. Rana had started out at DHL as an Assistant Operations Coordinator in 1999 and worked up the ladder to become its Country Operations Manager before he left in 2007. â€œI must say it was a rewarding career, he admits. Having travelled the entire South East Asia for his work, he had little left to achieve unless he wanted to take up a position with the company abroad. This is another factor that triggered his retirement from DHL as he did not want to move out of Nepal. After weighing several options, Rana finally decided to plunge into construction as, Apartment business was much in demand around three years ago which led to my decision to enter this line of business.One thing led to another and he entered into a technical collaboration with Westar Properties, Dubai. </span></div>

	<span style="font-size: 9.5pt;">Rana asserts that you can call a project a success only when it gets completed. It is precisely when commitment gets delivered and a dream turns into reality. He gets a bit emotional talking about his current project Westar Residency, a Vaastu compliant high-rise apartment building at Balkumari, Lalitpur. This is my baby. I have been involved with the project from scratch and it's immensely satisfying to see it taking shape,he says. A planner, by his own admission, he recommends infrastructure as a prime importance and wants the government to ensure infrastructure development for the overall development of the country.&nbsp;</span></div>

	<span style="font-size: 9.5pt;">He believes he was born with a golden heart, I go out of my way to help people. I guess it comes naturally to me.He is a religious person and prays for self-satisfaction. He draws inspiration from Bhagavad Gita your good actions automatically come back to you, sooner or later. Living in a joint family, he is a self-confessed homely person. He says that living in a joint family comes with a lot of advantages as well as responsibilities. On week days, it's a strict home-to-office and vice versa. He loves to catch up on movies though, with his wife and parents. He says, I am glad that there are a few good movie theatres now that we can go to.</span></div>

	<span style="font-size: 9.5pt;">Not a party animal, he normally attends social occasions only. Late nights are a complete no-no, I don't have this urge like a lot of other people to attend the so-called happening events in town.You will usually find Rana comfortably attired. He believes in dressing for the occasion. Clad in a suit while showing around his sample flats, he can be caught wearing shorts and T-shirts in summer. At other times, he loves to wear daura-suruwal for&nbsp; family functions. </span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-indent: 14.15pt; line-height: 11pt; vertical-align: middle;">
	<br />
	 </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
	<span style="font-size: 9.5pt; line-height: 115%;">He says it's just the right time for him to work hard, I am giving it all I have, for the completion of Westar Residency by its projected deadline 4th Qtr of 2012. Once the mission is accomplished, Rana wants to expand his business horizon and move into other sectors depending on the direction the nation's economy heads towards in the next 5-10 years. At present, the uncertainty level is very high so I am yet to identify my future business course, he explains. He has kept all options open and wants to enter businesses that have values. A firm believer in the adage, œlearning never stops, success is not only about creating wealth for him. Letting go of bachelorhood and becoming a father later transformed him as a person, he says. My marriage and the birth of my son has made me become more responsible socially and had me planning for the future, he reveals. Having led quite a privileged life, Rana doesn't have any major regrets and is content with everything god has to offer. </span></div>

However, with time, Golyan went on diversifying.&nbsp; He is currently the Chairman of Golyan Group of Industries. While Reliance Spinning Mill (RSM) is the flagship company of the group, it also has institutions such as NMB Bank, Westar Properties, Atlanta Trading, City Properties, Dhanalaxmi Synthetics, Himali Pashmina Industry, Shivam Plastic Industries and Makalu Cashmere are among others. Golyan says, Our flagship company, RSM alone registers an annual turnover of three to four billion rupees.</span></span></span></p>

After appearing for his School Leaving Certificate (SLC) examinations, he started work at the Shah Industry, one of the units within his family business. I started my career when I was only 16-years-old and became a full-fledged business person by 22, he proudly states. The industry closed down after the establishment of the spinning mill. He remembers his early days at the industry, There were around 600 workers at that time. It was not a smooth ride all along. However, the learning experience there was great and has always helped me. <br />

I used to attend classes in the morning and look after the business mainly during the day, he reminisces. He completed his B com from Mahendra Morang Campus, Biratnagar and has been involved in business full time ever since. He did not find time to pursue further studies. Not that he had the inclination either. Once I was full-fledged into business, I lost interest in studies, he says nonchalantly.</span></span></span></p>

	<span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><span style="font-size: 12px;"><span aldine401="" color:="">Going to cinema was a favourite pastime those days. Golyan recalls that Biratnagar used to be a place where there were no restaurants and clubs. There were limited options for merry-making and hangouts. He chuckles, We used to go to Dharan just to watch movies.His journey as a businessman took a defining turn when his doctor advised him to relocate to a cooler place. He suffered from dry eyes disease. To escape from the scorching heat of Biratnagar, Kathmandu proved to be a cool haven for him. Moving to Kathmandu largely helped business, he reveals. It reaped benefits for him to move to the capital city as a series of activities took place since. First, the establishment of RSM happened. In the subsequent years, Golyan started expanding into other industries and businesses. And, as luck would have it, the businesses turned out to be successful ventures in due time. <br />

	<span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><span style="font-size: 12px;"><span aldine401="" color:="">Establishment of RSM was probably the most proud moment of my life, he happily says. Setting up an industry worth one billion rupees 15 years ago was a massive proposition. Today, Golyan personally has one billion rupees worth of shares in the industry along with his equal partner Shashikant Agrawal. Presently, the industry exports its products to Turkey, Bangladesh and India. Among these countries, India is the largest market with 80 per cent of the total exports ending up there. He says that the thread produced at RSM is supplied to almost all Nepali textile industries. He is particularly pleased that the market prospects have improved appreciably in the last four months. <br />

It has a management team of professionals which takes care of the day-to-day management while Golyan has continued to take interest in the company's future. He reveals, Among all my companies, RSM is very close to my heart as I was attached with the textile business for a very long time. His other unit Shivam Plastic Industry manufactures woven sacks while Dhanalaxmi Synthetics produces threads with melt spinning. Westar Properties, the housing company, has two projects under construction at the moment. The group also has its investment in the banking and insurance sectors. <br />

I moved my family business ahead step-by-step. There was no rush and I never expected any overnight miracles, he shares. He says that he credits his success to continuing his father's honest virtues in business and the faith on Goddess Durga. When it comes to human resource management, he believes that trust is the most important aspect. Therefore, he believes in trusting his employees and giving them responsibilities based on their respective capacities. Over 5000 employees work for his various companies. He believes in healthy discussions to mitigate problems. Golyan does not like yes men He reasons, I may be the Chairman but that does not make me perfect. So, everything that I say need not come into effect.He believes that it's not the individual who is important. The company or the institution is more important as the destinies of thousands of stakeholders are attached with it. He believes in enhancing the skills of his employees to develop a sense of ownership in them. <br />

	<span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><span style="font-size: 12px;"><span aldine401="" color:="">He hates the Nepali trend of following successful businesses blindly. In my belief, it is important to study a business meticulously before venturing into it, he suggests. Imitating successful businesses does not guarantee success, working with optimism and dedication does, he says. Golyan painfully recounts the time when he almost left his business on his eldest son's demise. I was shattered and lost all my hopes. I saw no reason to continue. But one of my colleagues reasoned that I don't have the right to leave the livelihood of thousands of workers in lurch,he says. <br />

	<span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><span style="font-size: 12px;"><span aldine401="" color:="">According to Golyan, the four pillars that matter in his life are business, personal life, social life and personal time. I try to balance these as much as possible. I keep myself completely free from all business matters at least one day in a week. That day is for my family, he declares. He also manages 10 to 15 days twice a year for travelling with his family and friends. New Zealand is one of his much loved destinations. He tries to apply this on his employees too. So, he has the provision of forced holidays for them. A holiday rejuvenates people and also helps us realise their importance during their absence, he explains. <br />

Sometimes I don't wake up until midday, he jokes. He fondly remembers the days when he used to play badminton and cricket, That was a long time ago. These days, I practice yoga to stay fit. A movie buff, he also enjoys listening to music. Moderately brand conscious, Golyan prefers quality over brand names. At 52, he is already a veteran of 30 years in business. You ask his future plans and he philosophises, I have not looked at day-to-day business for the last 10 years. But I don't intend to retire completely. He wants to begin philanthropy in his son Jayanta's name. He plans to adopt a remote village with a population of 800 to 1200 residents and sponsor their health and education. Instead of giving them money, I will help them become self reliant by providing them with different skills and probably buy their produce,he says. <br />

	<span style="color:#000;"><span style="font-size: 12px;"><span aldine401="" color:="" style="line-height: 115%;">If the pilot project attains success, Golyan plans to expand this model to other villages. I am beginning the project from this year. And I would dedicate time for it just as I do for my industries, he expresses. He added that though it is a difficult and thankless job, he wants to do so for his inner satisfaction. Golyan has no regrets in life except his inability to save his son. He treats his nephews as his own children and wants to see them become successful in life.&nbsp;</span><span style="line-height: 115%; font-family: Wingdings; letter-spacing: 0.05pt;"> <br />
