THEHALFHOG commented about Nepal No Gas No Propane No Electricity, On Sunday August 31st, 2008 04:00:00 AM
Propane and petrol are of course imported from India via the Nepali oil company. If they have not paid their recent bills, India can cut off supply.
Load shedding: Electricity is mainly generated from hydro-electric. In this season (winter) the rivers are lower and the generated amount is less that usual. Additionally, demand has increased rapidly over the past years outstripping supply. A new hydro plant is being constructed but will be a few years before it comes online.
Not sure what you were looking for in Nepal. I was hear at the same time as you and had a good time. I guess it depends on mood and attitude at the time. Did you find anything nice / good / new in Nepal or was it all bad?
By the way, the last time I heard someone saying that a type of people "didn't understand a line" was a racist redneck in South Africa.
