- ANONYC, Association of Nepali Organizations in New York City, is an umbrella organization.
- Any interested Nepali organization in the city can become a member. Membership is free.
- Each will be represented by either its president or the president's representative. The organization will meet at least once every three months, but not more than once a month. The Secretary is to publicize the venue and time to all concerned. At least 60% attendance is required for a meeting to be official. At the meetings, only one person speaks at a time. You get the floor from the president and will be alloted time limits.
- There will be an emphasis on consensus.
- But when voting has to take place, each organization's voting weight will be the number of members it has. The organization will have to submit the names and contact info (email address, phone number) of all its members to certify its voting weight. Voting, when it happens, will be open. The voting weight of an organization will be decided at the time of election and will be locked for a year. That does not apply to new member organizations who will get to submit their lists at the time of first joining. Those organizations that are not based just in the city, but perhaps are national or even global, may only count their local members.
- Money matters are to be kept online and transparent. The organization hopes to minimize the need to raise and spend money as much as possible. Meeting minutes are similarly to be kept online and transparent. All decision making is to be kept online and transparent. All votes are to be published online.
- There is to be an Executive Committee. President, Vice Presidents -2, Secretary, and Treasurer. They are to be elected annually, by December at the latest.
- All member organizations will stay autonomous, free to go about as they please.
- ANONYC at best is a loose federation. It is not registered. It hopes to work to empower the Nepalis locally. And it hopes to help keep vibrant the connection to the motherland. It hopes to democratize the power structure in the larger Nepali diaspora based on the vertical implications of one person, one vote and the basic premise of transparency and hence will not join umbrella organizations that do not practice the same.
- It will also work towards alliances with other groups in the city with the zeal to empower.

My platform is give me a 10,000 strong matrix (The Matrix) and I will take you to the White House with me. I will likely not seek reelection in December 2007. I am a member of ANONYC as the president of Hamro Nepal, the "world's first digital democracy organization."

Letter From The Nepali Mandir
Dear Respected Brothers And Sisters.
A very humble Namaste to you.
Founded in April 2006, The Nepali Mandir Inc. is obviously in its very infanthood. Despite a troubled past and present, especially the financial hardships, it has been serving the Nepali community with its principled objectives of strengthening Nepali unity, preserving Nepali values and cultured Nepali heritage among Nepali residents in and around Sunnyside, across Queens, across New York City, the tri-state area, and across the United States of America. It is through our inspiration that efforts are now underway to establish Nepali Mandirs in Michigan and in Los Angeles.
The Mandir has been providing services in areas such as help in observing Nepali festivals, organising religious talks, conducting ritual practices like Pooja and Path, seminars and talk programs and forums.
The Mandir has become a kind of platform from which Nepalis can voice their concerns regarding community upliftment, advancement and sharing of ideas and information. As per the enshrined goals, it is committed to providing the required level of services that are deemed necessary, and those that will be in demand.
We hope to extend the level of services in the future, we are committed towards achieving our goals that will ensure that The Nepali Mandir will stand tall in its activities as to providing Nepali representation, preserving Nepali identity, helping to foster a sense of community, participation in social works and inculcate sense of unity among different individuals, thus and thereby offering a bridge beyond the like: connecting with other communities and the wider world.
However, sadly this institution is strained due to its financial shortcomings. It has no resources to fund its needs. This has stagnated the whole process of going forward. We are facing increasing lack of funds to run the Temple, and presently are in a state of uncertainty. Should this uncertainty persist and meanwhile we fail to act, the consequences are hurtful. Very few to mention: this will strain our spirit, we will lose a place to practice our faith, we will lose a virtual representative, and spiritually, religiously and psychologically we will have failed a Temple. We believe that will be a great loss to our community which is unacceptable and so we appeal to you all to do something for its survival and ensure its future. This is everyone's temple. If it survives, it serves all. There is none's personal interest attached to it....Ever it serves..entirely is its own community.
There are ways to help survive this temple and one of them is wide participation among us and a commitment to save this temple/community center. For now, this is most important, we hope this is one of our identities and in its loss, we lose one of our own identities. We are dedicated to serve its goal, and working on to save it, but that only has not been enough...without your help, we cannot do it, that is apparent...but with you and your help, we can save our temple , and give a chance for spirituality to flourish, offer peace to our faith and heart, and continue regular community services.
The long term vision is to establish a community center that will be an inter-faith alliance of all religions practiced by the Nepalis.
For now we need 200 individuals to commit $5 a month to pay for rent. And we need 100 individuals who will chip in $100 each to help pay off the debt. Please come to our meeting on November 19th, 2006 at Phipps Garden Apts.' Party Hall, 5101 39 Avenue, Sunnyside, NY-11104 near the Nepali Mandir premises at 12:00 Noon.
Chandra Prakash Sharma
