Govt Must Practice Protectionism </strong><br />

The ‘Sectoral’ story on Cement made us realise that we are moving ahead on the path to selfsufficiency. It also shed light on the challenges faced by the manufacturers of the related sector. Nepali cement industry is finding it challenging to compete with Indian cements that are available in the Nepali market at cheaper prices. If the government really feels that the cement industry has to be promoted, it should protect the domestic cement industry by any means. The claim may appear absurd in the era of globalisation that has created financial interdependence and internationalisation of trade. Especially, in the case with India, the interconnectedness is even stronger. But, the world is still practicing protectionism. France is protecting its farmers in order to preserve the beautiful rustic way of life of farms and fine wines. Australians are protecting their farmers and same is the case with New Zealand. Even the United States is protecting its cotton industries with tremendous subsidies. They are protecting their industries to maintain their competitive advantage. So, why not practice protectionism for some years? And, I do not mean that the government should protect industries in an excess. Once our industry becomes strong and there is a level playing field for both parties, we can let them compete. <br />

Bring out Investment Angle <br />
</strong><br />
<br />
New Business Age’s initiative to bring together the Gen-Y corporate leaders on a single platform to share their business strategies is praiseworthy. It must have taken a lot of effort in trying to give an overall picture of where the new generation has been taking their family businesses. It was good to know that this generation is conscious about and has respect for values like corporate governance and transparency. The broader perspective must have come by the exposure to the outside world of course. The story has tried to incorporate various aspects right from sharing their inspiration to exposing their personal interest and vision for tomorrow. However, some of my curiosities are still unanswered. If possible, I would like to know about the financial dimension of the leading business houses, for example, where have their investment been shifting and how they are managing the funds. They must have brought changes in these aspects as well. Being a business magazine, these aspects might also be interesting to cover. We, as readers, will also know if someone in Nepal is in the line to become the next Mark Zuckerberg or Larry Page. So, can we expect a cover story focusing on the investment aspect of the corporate houses in the coming issues? <br />

Nubiz’s Makeover <br />
</strong><br />
<br />
The June issue of New Business Age was a real surprise! Congratulations to the Nubiz family on the complete makeover of the magazine. The new look of the magazine, right from its masthead to layout design and picture placement, is trendy and international. It is no less than an international magazine from any angle. Placing the headlines of other articles as well on the cover page besides the cover-story was a good thing as the cover now gives the picture of an entire magazine. The new design has given more space to pictures and experimented with their placements. Plus, the magazine appears to be more colourful. Specially, the sections like Biz News ad Biz Launches have appeared more attractive due to categorisation and colourful shades. But, the font sizes of the text and headlines are not in cohesion, in places—the headlines are more dominating sometimes and the text more jam-packed or vice versa. But, all in all, the magazine has come up with a suave look! I wish it all the very best! <br />

<br />
In the interview of Foong Daw Ching, Regional Chairman of Baker Tilly International for Asia Pacific Region printed under Visiting Business People column in the New Business Age on Vol. 11 No. 9, June 2012 issue, please read “Baker Tilly is the eighth largest accounting firm in the World” and “Baker Tilly has nine partners” instead of what was inadvertently printed. Please also add that Baker Tilly’s member firm in Nepal is moving towards implementing AudIT this year. Baker Tilly has pointed out to a number of other minor errors as well in the print though the main message of the interview is not changed. We regret the misprint and the inconvenience caused to Baker Tilly and Mr. Daw Ching as well as to our readers. <br />

The ‘Sectoral’ story on Cement made us realise that we are moving ahead on the path to selfsufficiency. It also shed light on the challenges faced by the manufacturers of the related sector. Nepali cement industry is finding it challenging to compete with Indian cements that are available in the Nepali market at cheaper prices. If the government really feels that the cement industry has to be promoted, it should protect the domestic cement industry by any means. The claim may appear absurd in the era of globalisation that has created financial interdependence and internationalisation of trade. Especially, in the case with India, the interconnectedness is even stronger. But, the world is still practicing protectionism. France is protecting its farmers in order to preserve the beautiful rustic way of life of farms and fine wines. Australians are protecting their farmers and same is the case with New Zealand. Even the United States is protecting its cotton industries with tremendous subsidies. They are protecting their industries to maintain their competitive advantage. So, why not practice protectionism for some years? And, I do not mean that the government should protect industries in an excess. Once our industry becomes strong and there is a level playing field for both parties, we can let them compete. <br />

<br />
New Business Age’s initiative to bring together the Gen-Y corporate leaders on a single platform to share their business strategies is praiseworthy. It must have taken a lot of effort in trying to give an overall picture of where the new generation has been taking their family businesses. It was good to know that this generation is conscious about and has respect for values like corporate governance and transparency. The broader perspective must have come by the exposure to the outside world of course. The story has tried to incorporate various aspects right from sharing their inspiration to exposing their personal interest and vision for tomorrow. However, some of my curiosities are still unanswered. If possible, I would like to know about the financial dimension of the leading business houses, for example, where have their investment been shifting and how they are managing the funds. They must have brought changes in these aspects as well. Being a business magazine, these aspects might also be interesting to cover. We, as readers, will also know if someone in Nepal is in the line to become the next Mark Zuckerberg or Larry Page. So, can we expect a cover story focusing on the investment aspect of the corporate houses in the coming issues? <br />

Nubiz’s Makeover <br />
</strong><br />
<br />
The June issue of New Business Age was a real surprise! Congratulations to the Nubiz family on the complete makeover of the magazine. The new look of the magazine, right from its masthead to layout design and picture placement, is trendy and international. It is no less than an international magazine from any angle. Placing the headlines of other articles as well on the cover page besides the cover-story was a good thing as the cover now gives the picture of an entire magazine. The new design has given more space to pictures and experimented with their placements. Plus, the magazine appears to be more colourful. Specially, the sections like Biz News ad Biz Launches have appeared more attractive due to categorisation and colourful shades. But, the font sizes of the text and headlines are not in cohesion, in places—the headlines are more dominating sometimes and the text more jam-packed or vice versa. But, all in all, the magazine has come up with a suave look! I wish it all the very best! <br />

<br />
In the interview of Foong Daw Ching, Regional Chairman of Baker Tilly International for Asia Pacific Region printed under Visiting Business People column in the New Business Age on Vol. 11 No. 9, June 2012 issue, please read “Baker Tilly is the eighth largest accounting firm in the World” and “Baker Tilly has nine partners” instead of what was inadvertently printed. Please also add that Baker Tilly’s member firm in Nepal is moving towards implementing AudIT this year. Baker Tilly has pointed out to a number of other minor errors as well in the print though the main message of the interview is not changed. We regret the misprint and the inconvenience caused to Baker Tilly and Mr. Daw Ching as well as to our readers. <br />

France is protecting its farmers in order to preserve the beautiful rustic way of life of farms and fine wines. Australians are protecting their farmers and same is the case with New Zealand. Even the United States is protecting its cotton industries with tremendous subsidies. They are protecting their industries to maintain their competitive advantage. So, why not practice protectionism for some years? And, I do not mean that the government should protect industries in an excess. Once our industry becomes strong and there is a level playing field for both parties, we can let them compete.
New Business Age’s initiative to bring together the Gen-Y corporate leaders on a single platform to share their business strategies is praiseworthy. It must have taken a lot of effort in trying to give an overall picture of where the new generation has been taking their family businesses. It was good to know that this generation is conscious about and has respect for values like corporate governance and transparency. The broader perspective must have come by the exposure to the outside world of course. The story has tried to incorporate various aspects right from sharing their inspiration to exposing their personal interest and vision for tomorrow. However, some of my curiosities are still unanswered. If possible, I would like to know about the financial dimension of the leading business houses, for example, where have their investment been shifting and how they are managing the funds. They must have brought changes in these aspects as well. Being a business magazine, these aspects might also be interesting to cover. We, as readers, will also know if someone in Nepal is in the line to become the next Mark Zuckerberg or Larry Page. So, can we expect a cover story focusing on the investment aspect of the corporate houses in the coming issues?
The June issue of New Business Age was a real surprise! Congratulations to the Nubiz family on the complete makeover of the magazine. The new look of the magazine, right from its masthead to layout design and picture placement, is trendy and international. It is no less than an international magazine from any angle. Placing the headlines of other articles as well on the cover page besides the cover-story was a good thing as the cover now gives the picture of an entire magazine. The new design has given more space to pictures and experimented with their placements. Plus, the magazine appears to be more colourful. Specially, the sections like Biz News ad Biz Launches have appeared more attractive due to categorisation and colourful shades. But, the font sizes of the text and headlines are not in cohesion, in places—the headlines are more dominating sometimes and the text more jam-packed or vice versa. But, all in all, the magazine has come up with a suave look! I wish it all the very best!
In the interview of Foong Daw Ching, Regional Chairman of Baker Tilly International for Asia Pacific Region printed under Visiting Business People column in the New Business Age on Vol. 11 No. 9, June 2012 issue, please read “Baker Tilly is the eighth largest accounting firm in the World” and “Baker Tilly has nine partners” instead of what was inadvertently printed. Please also add that Baker Tilly’s member firm in Nepal is moving towards implementing AudIT this year. Baker Tilly has pointed out to a number of other minor errors as well in the print though the main message of the interview is not changed. We regret the misprint and the inconvenience caused to Baker Tilly and Mr. Daw Ching as well as to our readers.

The ‘Sectoral’ story on Cement made us realise that we are moving ahead on the path to selfsufficiency. It also shed light on the challenges faced by the manufacturers of the related sector. Nepali cement industry is finding it challenging to compete with Indian cements that are available in the Nepali market at cheaper prices. If the government really feels that the cement industry has to be promoted, it should protect the domestic cement industry by any means. The claim may appear absurd in the era of globalisation that has created financial interdependence and internationalisation of trade. Especially, in the case with India, the interconnectedness is even stronger. But, the world is still practicing protectionism. France is protecting its farmers in order to preserve the beautiful rustic way of life of farms and fine wines. Australians are protecting their farmers and same is the case with New Zealand.

The June issue of New Business Age was a real surprise! Congratulations to the Nubiz family on the complete makeover of the magazine. The new look of the magazine, right from its masthead to layout design and picture placement, is trendy and international. It is no less than an international magazine from any angle. Placing the headlines of other articles as well on the cover page besides the cover-story was a good thing as the cover now gives the picture of an entire magazine. The new design has given more space to pictures and experimented with their placements. Plus, the magazine appears to be more colourful. Specially, the sections like Biz News ad Biz Launches have appeared more attractive due to categorisation and colourful shades. But, the font sizes of the text and headlines are not in cohesion, in places—the headlines are more dominating sometimes and the text more jam-packed or vice versa. But, all in all, the magazine has come up with a suave look! I wish it all the very best! <br />

In the interview of Foong Daw Ching, Regional Chairman of Baker Tilly International for Asia Pacific Region printed under Visiting Business People column in the New Business Age on Vol. 11 No. 9, June 2012 issue, please read “Baker Tilly is the eighth largest accounting firm in the World” and “Baker Tilly has nine partners” instead of what was inadvertently printed. Please also add that Baker Tilly’s member firm in Nepal is moving towards implementing AudIT this year. Baker Tilly has pointed out to a number of other minor errors as well in the print though the main message of the interview is not changed. We regret the misprint and the inconvenience caused to Baker Tilly and Mr. Daw Ching as well as to our readers. <br />

Govt Must Practice Protectionism </strong><br />

The ‘Sectoral’ story on Cement made us realise that we are moving ahead on the path to selfsufficiency. It also shed light on the challenges faced by the manufacturers of the related sector. Nepali cement industry is finding it challenging to compete with Indian cements that are available in the Nepali market at cheaper prices. If the government really feels that the cement industry has to be promoted, it should protect the domestic cement industry by any means. The claim may appear absurd in the era of globalisation that has created financial interdependence and internationalisation of trade. Especially, in the case with India, the interconnectedness is even stronger. But, the world is still practicing protectionism. France is protecting its farmers in order to preserve the beautiful rustic way of life of farms and fine wines. Australians are protecting their farmers and same is the case with New Zealand. Even the United States is protecting its cotton industries with tremendous subsidies. They are protecting their industries to maintain their competitive advantage. So, why not practice protectionism for some years? And, I do not mean that the government should protect industries in an excess. Once our industry becomes strong and there is a level playing field for both parties, we can let them compete. <br />

<br />
New Business Age’s initiative to bring together the Gen-Y corporate leaders on a single platform to share their business strategies is praiseworthy. It must have taken a lot of effort in trying to give an overall picture of where the new generation has been taking their family businesses. It was good to know that this generation is conscious about and has respect for values like corporate governance and transparency. The broader perspective must have come by the exposure to the outside world of course. The story has tried to incorporate various aspects right from sharing their inspiration to exposing their personal interest and vision for tomorrow. However, some of my curiosities are still unanswered. If possible, I would like to know about the financial dimension of the leading business houses, for example, where have their investment been shifting and how they are managing the funds. They must have brought changes in these aspects as well. Being a business magazine, these aspects might also be interesting to cover. We, as readers, will also know if someone in Nepal is in the line to become the next Mark Zuckerberg or Larry Page. So, can we expect a cover story focusing on the investment aspect of the corporate houses in the coming issues? <br />

Nubiz’s Makeover <br />
</strong><br />
<br />
The June issue of New Business Age was a real surprise! Congratulations to the Nubiz family on the complete makeover of the magazine. The new look of the magazine, right from its masthead to layout design and picture placement, is trendy and international. It is no less than an international magazine from any angle. Placing the headlines of other articles as well on the cover page besides the cover-story was a good thing as the cover now gives the picture of an entire magazine. The new design has given more space to pictures and experimented with their placements. Plus, the magazine appears to be more colourful. Specially, the sections like Biz News ad Biz Launches have appeared more attractive due to categorisation and colourful shades. But, the font sizes of the text and headlines are not in cohesion, in places—the headlines are more dominating sometimes and the text more jam-packed or vice versa. But, all in all, the magazine has come up with a suave look! I wish it all the very best! <br />

Govt Must Practice Protectionism </strong><br />

The ‘Sectoral’ story on Cement made us realise that we are moving ahead on the path to selfsufficiency. It also shed light on the challenges faced by the manufacturers of the related sector. Nepali cement industry is finding it challenging to compete with Indian cements that are available in the Nepali market at cheaper prices. If the government really feels that the cement industry has to be promoted, it should protect the domestic cement industry by any means. The claim may appear absurd in the era of globalisation that has created financial interdependence and internationalisation of trade. Especially, in the case with India, the interconnectedness is even stronger. But, the world is still practicing protectionism. France is protecting its farmers in order to preserve the beautiful rustic way of life of farms and fine wines. Australians are protecting their farmers and same is the case with New Zealand. Even the United States is protecting its cotton industries with tremendous subsidies. They are protecting their industries to maintain their competitive advantage. So, why not practice protectionism for some years? And, I do not mean that the government should protect industries in an excess. Once our industry becomes strong and there is a level playing field for both parties, we can let them compete. <br />

Bring out Investment Angle <br />
</strong><br />
<br />
New Business Age’s initiative to bring together the Gen-Y corporate leaders on a single platform to share their business strategies is praiseworthy. It must have taken a lot of effort in trying to give an overall picture of where the new generation has been taking their family businesses. It was good to know that this generation is conscious about and has respect for values like corporate governance and transparency. The broader perspective must have come by the exposure to the outside world of course. The story has tried to incorporate various aspects right from sharing their inspiration to exposing their personal interest and vision for tomorrow. However, some of my curiosities are still unanswered. If possible, I would like to know about the financial dimension of the leading business houses, for example, where have their investment been shifting and how they are managing the funds. They must have brought changes in these aspects as well. Being a business magazine, these aspects might also be interesting to cover. We, as readers, will also know if someone in Nepal is in the line to become the next Mark Zuckerberg or Larry Page. So, can we expect a cover story focusing on the investment aspect of the corporate houses in the coming issues? <br />

Nubiz’s Makeover <br />
</strong><br />
<br />
The June issue of New Business Age was a real surprise! Congratulations to the Nubiz family on the complete makeover of the magazine. The new look of the magazine, right from its masthead to layout design and picture placement, is trendy and international. It is no less than an international magazine from any angle. Placing the headlines of other articles as well on the cover page besides the cover-story was a good thing as the cover now gives the picture of an entire magazine. The new design has given more space to pictures and experimented with their placements. Plus, the magazine appears to be more colourful. Specially, the sections like Biz News ad Biz Launches have appeared more attractive due to categorisation and colourful shades. But, the font sizes of the text and headlines are not in cohesion, in places—the headlines are more dominating sometimes and the text more jam-packed or vice versa. But, all in all, the magazine has come up with a suave look! I wish it all the very best! <br />

<br />
In the interview of Foong Daw Ching, Regional Chairman of Baker Tilly International for Asia Pacific Region printed under Visiting Business People column in the New Business Age on Vol. 11 No. 9, June 2012 issue, please read “Baker Tilly is the eighth largest accounting firm in the World” and “Baker Tilly has nine partners” instead of what was inadvertently printed. Please also add that Baker Tilly’s member firm in Nepal is moving towards implementing AudIT this year. Baker Tilly has pointed out to a number of other minor errors as well in the print though the main message of the interview is not changed. We regret the misprint and the inconvenience caused to Baker Tilly and Mr. Daw Ching as well as to our readers. <br />
