			'content' => '<p>September 17: The Money Laundering Prevention Act 2008 endorsed by the government almost a decade ago for discouraging investment in terrorism has become the bone of contention between the government and the business community. Disputes have arised due to the differing views of the government and the private sector regarding money laundering.</p>

<p>Both sides expressed their grievances related to the act during a program organised by Nepal Chamber of Commerce (NCC) on Friday, September 15.</p>

<p>Businessmen complained that the government authorities have been threatening them for tax evasion under the money laundering act. Meanwhile, government authorities say that it is necessary to implement the act as they are signatory to international convention on money laundering.</p>

<p>However, knowledgeable sources claim that both the government and the entrepreneurs say one thing but have different strategies. &ldquo;The government has been using the money laundering act to curb tax evasion, under invoicing and black marketing,&rdquo; said a former secretary, adding, &ldquo;Businessmen on the other hand claim that they cannot be booked for tax evasion under the money laundering act.&rdquo;</p>

<p>Under this act, Nepal Rastra Bank recently made it mandatory for any transaction more than Rs 1 million to be done through banking channel. The two sides are still at odds regarding this issue.</p>

<p>Of late, government authorities have been considering money laundering as the medium of all other crimes. The government has started finding sources of income of suspected people for curbing money laundering. Representatives of the private sector say that they are having difficulties in conducting business due to the new provisions.</p>

<p>Experts say that the government is likely to tighten the screw on money laundering just to show the international community of its commitment made during international conventions. &nbsp;&nbsp;</p>

<p>NCC Chairman Rajesh Kaji Shrestha said that the money laundering act should not involve tax issues that have direct impact on businessmen but should have been concerned with topics like terrorism and corruption.</p>

<p>Meanhwile, Money Laundering Research Department&rsquo;s Director General Jeevan Ram Sitaula said that there is no need for honest businessmen to be afraid of the money laundering act.</p>

<p>Buddha Air said it started the Bharatpur-Pokhara flights upon the request of tourism entrepreneurs as the industry was hard hit by the dwindling number of tourists due to the ongoing road upgradation works in Narayangadh-Mungling road section.</p>

<p>According to Gautam Baral, manager of Buddha Air&rsquo;s Pokhara-based office, the rate of Pokhara-Bharatpur flight has been fixed at Rs 3,650 while Pokhara-Bhairahawa flight costs Rs 4,200.</p>

<p>Tourism entrepreneurs are hopeful that the inflow of tourists will increase with the commencement of the flight services as the Narayangadh-Mugling road upgradation work coupled with landslides had obstructed the arrival of tourists, particularly from India.</p>

<p>In addition to this, they also believe that the flight services will also promote internal tourism. Bharat Raj Parajuli, vice-president of Pokhara Tourism Council (PTC), said that the new flight schedule will boost tourist arrival.</p>

<p>&ldquo;The new route has made it convenient for the arrival of Indian tourists from Bhairahawa,&rdquo; he said.&nbsp;</p>

			'content' => '<p>September 15: Nepal Rastra Bank&rsquo;s efforts in poverty reduction by providing subsidised rates for deprived sector lending has double within a year. The rate of interest for the marginalised group was 5 percent at the beginning of last fiscal year 2016/17. But the rate has increased to 10 percent in the current fiscal year, as shown by the latest report published by the central bank. &nbsp;</p>

<p>As per the regulations set by Nepal Rastra Bank, commercial banks should provide at least 5 percent of their total lending to the deprived sector. Although such provision was introduced with the aim of reducing poverty, the deprived sector has been hard hit with the two-fold increase in the rate of interest.</p>

<p>The banks say that all types of interest have been increased due to lack of investible capital. They argue that it is not unnatural for the rise in interest rate for deprived sector lending.</p>

<p>As the majority of deprived sector lending is done by microfinance institutes, it is natural that the rate will rise when the cost of operation of the institutions increases, says NMB Bank&rsquo;s CEO Sunil KC.</p>

			'content' => '<p>September 17: The Money Laundering Prevention Act 2008 endorsed by the government almost a decade ago for discouraging investment in terrorism has become the bone of contention between the government and the business community. Disputes have arised due to the differing views of the government and the private sector regarding money laundering.</p>

<p>Both sides expressed their grievances related to the act during a program organised by Nepal Chamber of Commerce (NCC) on Friday, September 15.</p>

<p>Businessmen complained that the government authorities have been threatening them for tax evasion under the money laundering act. Meanwhile, government authorities say that it is necessary to implement the act as they are signatory to international convention on money laundering.</p>

<p>However, knowledgeable sources claim that both the government and the entrepreneurs say one thing but have different strategies. &ldquo;The government has been using the money laundering act to curb tax evasion, under invoicing and black marketing,&rdquo; said a former secretary, adding, &ldquo;Businessmen on the other hand claim that they cannot be booked for tax evasion under the money laundering act.&rdquo;</p>

<p>Under this act, Nepal Rastra Bank recently made it mandatory for any transaction more than Rs 1 million to be done through banking channel. The two sides are still at odds regarding this issue.</p>

<p>Of late, government authorities have been considering money laundering as the medium of all other crimes. The government has started finding sources of income of suspected people for curbing money laundering. Representatives of the private sector say that they are having difficulties in conducting business due to the new provisions.</p>

<p>Experts say that the government is likely to tighten the screw on money laundering just to show the international community of its commitment made during international conventions. &nbsp;&nbsp;</p>

<p>NCC Chairman Rajesh Kaji Shrestha said that the money laundering act should not involve tax issues that have direct impact on businessmen but should have been concerned with topics like terrorism and corruption.</p>

<p>Meanhwile, Money Laundering Research Department&rsquo;s Director General Jeevan Ram Sitaula said that there is no need for honest businessmen to be afraid of the money laundering act.</p>

<p>Buddha Air said it started the Bharatpur-Pokhara flights upon the request of tourism entrepreneurs as the industry was hard hit by the dwindling number of tourists due to the ongoing road upgradation works in Narayangadh-Mungling road section.</p>

<p>According to Gautam Baral, manager of Buddha Air&rsquo;s Pokhara-based office, the rate of Pokhara-Bharatpur flight has been fixed at Rs 3,650 while Pokhara-Bhairahawa flight costs Rs 4,200.</p>

<p>Tourism entrepreneurs are hopeful that the inflow of tourists will increase with the commencement of the flight services as the Narayangadh-Mugling road upgradation work coupled with landslides had obstructed the arrival of tourists, particularly from India.</p>

<p>In addition to this, they also believe that the flight services will also promote internal tourism. Bharat Raj Parajuli, vice-president of Pokhara Tourism Council (PTC), said that the new flight schedule will boost tourist arrival.</p>

<p>&ldquo;The new route has made it convenient for the arrival of Indian tourists from Bhairahawa,&rdquo; he said.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The banks say that all types of interest have been increased due to lack of investible capital. They argue that it is not unnatural for the rise in interest rate for deprived sector lending.</p>

<p>As the majority of deprived sector lending is done by microfinance institutes, it is natural that the rate will rise when the cost of operation of the institutions increases, says NMB Bank&rsquo;s CEO Sunil KC.</p>

			'content' => '<p>September 17: The Money Laundering Prevention Act 2008 endorsed by the government almost a decade ago for discouraging investment in terrorism has become the bone of contention between the government and the business community. Disputes have arised due to the differing views of the government and the private sector regarding money laundering.</p>

<p>Both sides expressed their grievances related to the act during a program organised by Nepal Chamber of Commerce (NCC) on Friday, September 15.</p>

<p>Businessmen complained that the government authorities have been threatening them for tax evasion under the money laundering act. Meanwhile, government authorities say that it is necessary to implement the act as they are signatory to international convention on money laundering.</p>

<p>However, knowledgeable sources claim that both the government and the entrepreneurs say one thing but have different strategies. &ldquo;The government has been using the money laundering act to curb tax evasion, under invoicing and black marketing,&rdquo; said a former secretary, adding, &ldquo;Businessmen on the other hand claim that they cannot be booked for tax evasion under the money laundering act.&rdquo;</p>

<p>Under this act, Nepal Rastra Bank recently made it mandatory for any transaction more than Rs 1 million to be done through banking channel. The two sides are still at odds regarding this issue.</p>

<p>Of late, government authorities have been considering money laundering as the medium of all other crimes. The government has started finding sources of income of suspected people for curbing money laundering. Representatives of the private sector say that they are having difficulties in conducting business due to the new provisions.</p>

<p>Experts say that the government is likely to tighten the screw on money laundering just to show the international community of its commitment made during international conventions. &nbsp;&nbsp;</p>

<p>NCC Chairman Rajesh Kaji Shrestha said that the money laundering act should not involve tax issues that have direct impact on businessmen but should have been concerned with topics like terrorism and corruption.</p>

<p>Meanhwile, Money Laundering Research Department&rsquo;s Director General Jeevan Ram Sitaula said that there is no need for honest businessmen to be afraid of the money laundering act.</p>

<p>Buddha Air said it started the Bharatpur-Pokhara flights upon the request of tourism entrepreneurs as the industry was hard hit by the dwindling number of tourists due to the ongoing road upgradation works in Narayangadh-Mungling road section.</p>

<p>According to Gautam Baral, manager of Buddha Air&rsquo;s Pokhara-based office, the rate of Pokhara-Bharatpur flight has been fixed at Rs 3,650 while Pokhara-Bhairahawa flight costs Rs 4,200.</p>

<p>Tourism entrepreneurs are hopeful that the inflow of tourists will increase with the commencement of the flight services as the Narayangadh-Mugling road upgradation work coupled with landslides had obstructed the arrival of tourists, particularly from India.</p>

<p>In addition to this, they also believe that the flight services will also promote internal tourism. Bharat Raj Parajuli, vice-president of Pokhara Tourism Council (PTC), said that the new flight schedule will boost tourist arrival.</p>

<p>&ldquo;The new route has made it convenient for the arrival of Indian tourists from Bhairahawa,&rdquo; he said.&nbsp;</p>

			'content' => '<p>September 15: Nepal Rastra Bank&rsquo;s efforts in poverty reduction by providing subsidised rates for deprived sector lending has double within a year. The rate of interest for the marginalised group was 5 percent at the beginning of last fiscal year 2016/17. But the rate has increased to 10 percent in the current fiscal year, as shown by the latest report published by the central bank. &nbsp;</p>

<p>As per the regulations set by Nepal Rastra Bank, commercial banks should provide at least 5 percent of their total lending to the deprived sector. Although such provision was introduced with the aim of reducing poverty, the deprived sector has been hard hit with the two-fold increase in the rate of interest.</p>

<p>The banks say that all types of interest have been increased due to lack of investible capital. They argue that it is not unnatural for the rise in interest rate for deprived sector lending.</p>

<p>As the majority of deprived sector lending is done by microfinance institutes, it is natural that the rate will rise when the cost of operation of the institutions increases, says NMB Bank&rsquo;s CEO Sunil KC.</p>

			'content' => '<p>September 17: The Money Laundering Prevention Act 2008 endorsed by the government almost a decade ago for discouraging investment in terrorism has become the bone of contention between the government and the business community. Disputes have arised due to the differing views of the government and the private sector regarding money laundering.</p>

<p>Both sides expressed their grievances related to the act during a program organised by Nepal Chamber of Commerce (NCC) on Friday, September 15.</p>

<p>Businessmen complained that the government authorities have been threatening them for tax evasion under the money laundering act. Meanwhile, government authorities say that it is necessary to implement the act as they are signatory to international convention on money laundering.</p>

<p>However, knowledgeable sources claim that both the government and the entrepreneurs say one thing but have different strategies. &ldquo;The government has been using the money laundering act to curb tax evasion, under invoicing and black marketing,&rdquo; said a former secretary, adding, &ldquo;Businessmen on the other hand claim that they cannot be booked for tax evasion under the money laundering act.&rdquo;</p>

<p>Under this act, Nepal Rastra Bank recently made it mandatory for any transaction more than Rs 1 million to be done through banking channel. The two sides are still at odds regarding this issue.</p>

<p>Of late, government authorities have been considering money laundering as the medium of all other crimes. The government has started finding sources of income of suspected people for curbing money laundering. Representatives of the private sector say that they are having difficulties in conducting business due to the new provisions.</p>

<p>Experts say that the government is likely to tighten the screw on money laundering just to show the international community of its commitment made during international conventions. &nbsp;&nbsp;</p>

<p>NCC Chairman Rajesh Kaji Shrestha said that the money laundering act should not involve tax issues that have direct impact on businessmen but should have been concerned with topics like terrorism and corruption.</p>

<p>Meanhwile, Money Laundering Research Department&rsquo;s Director General Jeevan Ram Sitaula said that there is no need for honest businessmen to be afraid of the money laundering act.</p>

<p>Buddha Air said it started the Bharatpur-Pokhara flights upon the request of tourism entrepreneurs as the industry was hard hit by the dwindling number of tourists due to the ongoing road upgradation works in Narayangadh-Mungling road section.</p>

<p>According to Gautam Baral, manager of Buddha Air&rsquo;s Pokhara-based office, the rate of Pokhara-Bharatpur flight has been fixed at Rs 3,650 while Pokhara-Bhairahawa flight costs Rs 4,200.</p>

<p>Tourism entrepreneurs are hopeful that the inflow of tourists will increase with the commencement of the flight services as the Narayangadh-Mugling road upgradation work coupled with landslides had obstructed the arrival of tourists, particularly from India.</p>

<p>In addition to this, they also believe that the flight services will also promote internal tourism. Bharat Raj Parajuli, vice-president of Pokhara Tourism Council (PTC), said that the new flight schedule will boost tourist arrival.</p>

<p>&ldquo;The new route has made it convenient for the arrival of Indian tourists from Bhairahawa,&rdquo; he said.&nbsp;</p>

<p>JICA Nepal said it has undertaken reconstruction of more than 20 earthquake resilient public facilities in Gorkha and Sindhupalchowk damaged by the 2015 earthquake which shall be completed within a year.</p>

<p>According to JICA, the Bungkot Community Training Center, handed over to the Shahid Lakhan Rural Municipality, can be utilized for a wide range of community-level activities with major focus on post-earthquake recovery in the municipality.</p>

The rate of interest for the marginalised group was 5 percent at the beginning of last fiscal year 2016/17. But the rate has increased to 10 percent in the current fiscal year, as shown by the latest report published by the central bank. &nbsp;</p>

<p>As per the regulations set by Nepal Rastra Bank, commercial banks should provide at least 5 percent of their total lending to the deprived sector. Although such provision was introduced with the aim of reducing poverty, the deprived sector has been hard hit with the two-fold increase in the rate of interest.</p>

<p>The banks say that all types of interest have been increased due to lack of investible capital. They argue that it is not unnatural for the rise in interest rate for deprived sector lending.</p>

<p>As the majority of deprived sector lending is done by microfinance institutes, it is natural that the rate will rise when the cost of operation of the institutions increases, says NMB Bank&rsquo;s CEO Sunil KC.</p>
