I woke up this morning to the news that Unified CPN-Maoist Chairman Pushpa Kamal Dahal (Prachanda) had directed workers to prepare for a revolt.

The consitution is due (again) on 28 May and basically Prachanda has said that if the right wing parties continue blocking the process and that the Seven Point plan is not seen through, then revolution will be the result.
Events in North Africa are no doubt helping fuel this thinking but since the end of the People's War in 2006, Nepal has stalled, corruption has increased, the country is in a bad way...
I sit here slightly incredulous at the situation. As western tourists tread along the trekking trails, blissfully unaware of the real situation...and the local people deal with a fragmented "government", electricity cuts get longer, tensions are rising...
There is a saying here "What to do?"
What to do, Kathmandu?
Thanks for looking. This image is part of a photo blog looking at the relationships between politics, people and the environment. I must stress that neither myself or www.wildtiger.org have any political allegiance, we are looking at things as they are, purely from a conservation standpoint, with our eyes open.

Kathmandu Valley, Nepal - a cow and street vendors in Baniyatar. Sacrum and profanum, to a silly western eye that is.
