(1) Democratic Republic in Nepal.
We can do that as a pressure group, but if we have to we should be willing to launch a political party. For the short term, we should work to expand our membership.

(2) Double digit economic growth in Nepal.
I think it is very possible. If democracy is superior to the other ideologies, Nepal should be able to grow faster than China. And I think it can. Two things to offer:

(3) Political Empowerment of the Nepali diaspora.
Democracy Diwali 10
I mean voting rights for the 100,000 Nepalis in America. And I mean in America. The blacks earned it half a century ago. The whole thing has to be a package deal. There is this guest worker program being talked about, the idea of earned citizenship for the 11 million "illegal" immigrants. But I get the impression the white males on the Hill are not being creative enough. They are not getting globalization, they are not getting the 21st century. They are not doing their economic analysis.
Immigrant Power
No taxation without representation. If you pay taxes, you should be able to vote. That has to be the bottomline. And the Nepalis are small in number. But we can hope to lead if we can turn Hamro Nepal into the glow it deserves to be. We can infect the immigrant community with our digital democracy concept to truly empower them during the struggle itself.
For the short term the idea is to get a resolution passed at the ANA Convention in July. But I am worried there has not been enough open discussion on the topic. There is not one mass based Nepali organization in America. Not one. Show me an organization that has 5,000 members all of whom directly elect the organization's president. It simply does not exist. That is a gaping hole.
For now let's work on the wording of the resolution.

All Dalits Should Convert To Buddhism En Masse
Give up on Hinduism. The Hindus are not about to change. The caste system will stick around. Turn Hinduism into a three caste religion instead of a four caste one. Convert en masse. I recommend Buddhism as a Buddhist myself. Pull the rug from beneath the feet of the Bahuns.
I don't get it, the whole thing about Dalit rights. What is the idea? Is the idea to reform the caste system? You can not reform something that is wrong in its entirety. You can only abolish it, if you can. But if you can't, you either reject it, or put up with it.
Is the idea to appeal to the good side of the high caste folks? They don't have a good side, at least not on the caste issue they don't.
Is the idea to keep the four castes intact, but somehow achieve equality among them? That is highly imaginary. That is not going to happen. The caste system is by definition a hiearrchy. Water is wet. How do you work and turn it dry? If you want to get dry, get out of the water.
I think all Dalits should get organized into one organization or the other, this or that, and form an umbrella organization of all their organizations, and build a coalition with the Adivasi, Janajati, Madhesi groups. And write to the Dalai Lama or something. We are 20% of the country, about five million people, and we just passed a political resolution that we all would like to convert to Buddhism en masse. Can you please help with the process? Something like that.
I am serious.
You can only reject the caste system. There is nothing else that can be done with it. And if you have to reject a religion in the process, so be it.
Hindus, Chill
