NRNA Is Not Forum For Politics

  2 min 43 sec to read

In Nepal, politics is often blamed as a game  to ruin every sort of well established cannon. Despite the fact that no one can live without political activities , the word ‘politics’ and ‘political parties’ do not have positive connotation due to inefficiency of politicians to deliver what they promise. 
 
Non Resident Nepali Association (NRNA), knowingly or unknowingly,  engaged in politics during its recently held NRN International Convention and Sixth Global Conference which took place in Kathmandu from October 19 to 22. As a result, the NRNA was divided according to the wish of political parties which will have  long-term adverse impact on the entire organization.
 
NRNA should not be divided on the basis of political affiliation and ideology. Their roadmap should be clear: prosperity of the country.  If they want to engage in politics, they should not hesitate to enter politics directly instead of taking other NRNs for a ride to fulfill their political desire . 
 
If NRNA is sincere in its effort to develop the country and take it to the next level of development,  members of the organization should pledge for the actions which they can deliver and abstain from making promises like politicians.
 
NRNA can contribute to the country’s prosperity in positive manner in several ways: one, it can spread positive message about the country abroad; second, it can convince investors from the country where they are residing to invest in Nepal; third, transfer expertise and skills they acquire abroad; and fourth, promote tourism activities by visiting Nepal frequently.
 
NRN, following the long established trend, has also started to blame the government as the sole causes of all the problems in the country. Instead of being involved in blame game, NRNs should engage themselves in productive work. 
 
Only thing the government can provide NRN is stable policy and environment conducive for investment. NRNs should not expect much from the government rather it should provide constructive suggestions and assistance in government’s development initiatives. 
 
Why do people respect NRNs? The answer is clear— they are expected to be more loyal to the country when compared to other foreign investors. So, they have added responsibilities towards the country like that of Non Resident Indians in India. They have contributed to Indian economy when the economic situation was adverse and foreign investors had been shying away to invest there. 
 
Similarly, in spite of blaming the country’s economic situation, NRNs should float the option of best investment areas in the existing situation. 
 
On the other hand, we should not expect much from NRNs too. Most of the first generation NRNs has been residing abroad at present and they themselves are struggling to get established. Secondly, they should not come here and suffer loss and it is our duty to assure them the safety of their investment. Together we can lead the country on the road to prosperity.
