		<description>Wow, CK, you&#039;ll need to give me a reference on that one.  

That is one high level of extrapolation you&#039;re basing things on, there.  

First off, thanks to our wonderful hosts here at ujjwal: you have a wonderful site here. 

Second, blogdai is: 

A Realist, not a Royalist.  No fan of G. but something had to be done and I&#039;m glad he threw those bums out of office before the Maoists did. 

I don&#039;t hate the West either. I DO wish they&#039;d conduct better research before issuing statements. They show their ignorance on Nepal&#039;s issues every time they open their mouths. 

I love democracy. But democracy is not some naturally occuring phenomenon. It takes hard work.  It is also meaningless without the establishment of fundamental pillars.  A few of which are:  Equal representation under, and rule of law, citizen participation, governmental checks and balances, the committment to the peaceful resolution of disputes, the insurance of public confidence and safety and others.  

Did we ever see any of these things under Nepal&#039;s &quot;democracy?&quot;
