Unhappy donors


The latest trend is to troop over to hand over memos to the government.
Even the donors are joining the procession. They are worried about the vacuum at the grassroots with bureaucrats running local bodies, and have written to the government again to hint that the current situation will only help the Maoists. The 10 September letter also warns that donors who had suspended funding to local bodies will wait until local elections to start writing cheques again. Signatories to the letter are the World Bank, DfID, GTZ, SNV, SDC, NORAD and UNDP who together control over 70 percent of foreign aid to Nepal.
