We just came to know that Royal Nepal Airlines is terminating its
flights to Europe. After the royal massacre this is another massacre-of the economy. Our office alone sends over 1,000 tourists to Nepal in a year and almost half of them fly Royal Nepal. It is obvious that our politicians have no thought for the country but to amass wealth and collect kickbacks on helicopters and guns for the police and army. If they just allowed the airline to buy or lease an aircraft without interfering with their greasy palms, our tourism industry may stand a chance. But are there any leaders like that? Is anyone even worried about it? What is Nepal's travel industry doing about this? Once Royal Nepal loses the coveted landing slot in Frankfurt, it will be difficult to get it back. Wake up, politicians, and think of your country's future for once.
