My Federalism Is Economic, Scientific, Not Ethnic


Federalism

Proposed Republican Constitution 2006

The federalism I have proposed is of three states - Kosi, Gandaki, Karnali.

At one end we have people who are opposed to the very concept of federalism, or suggest turning Birendra's arbitrary five development regions into states that are at best crude concepts in administrative decentralization. At another end are people who want ethnic states, perhaps eight or more in number. The Maoists also want that, as do several Janajati groups. I appreciate the sentiment behind that suggestion. The various ethnic groups have been so severely marginalized for so long that the pendulum wants to swing the other way. People want to divide the country into so many states in such ways that the Bahun Chhetri are a minority in every single one of them.

As a Madhesi myself, I understand all that sentiment.

But I am for three states. I think Nepal's geography is designed for these three states. Three river basins lead to three states.

My proposal on federalism has one central goal: double digit economic growth.

Instead of eight or nine ethnic states, I would rather have 75 well funded districts.

My proposal for federalism is such that it envisions a Nepal whose economy is so vibrant that people move around quite a lot.

America has a much better physical infrastructure compared to Nepal. And in America you find states that have five million people and even less. If Nepal is 27 million people, having three states, nine million each is necessary.

We should all agree on federalism, and then proceed to discuss the form of that federalism.

Reservations In The Parliament

Proposed Republican Constitution 2006

I have tried to design something particular for the Nepal situation that perhaps might have appeal beyond Nepal, something that other countries in the Global South can try and learn from.

Although my proposed constitution puts the individual at the center, I also put the collective identities on stage. And that will make Nepal a cutting edge democracy.

Women, Dalit, Janajati, Madhesi: these are not names of individuals. These are collective identities. My proposed constitution recognizes that. If we implement this, it will be the first of its kind.

And the reservations are decided by a formula.

America Does Not Decide, The Seven Parties Do

Moriarty has been taking some heat for suggesting America will not recognize the interim government if that might include the Maoists that have not yet renounced violence.

Ultimately it is for the seven party alliance to decide. It is not for America or Moriarty to decide.

But we ourselves on our own have to be more vigilant about the Maoists. This is not about Moriarty. This is about us.

The idea of having one central government but two armies is kind of unheard of. Makes no sense. I like Prachanda's suggestion that the interim Prime Minister become the Commander In Chief of both armies.

Interim Constitution Draft

Show Me The Money

Auditing the government expenses over the past few years is as important as documenting the human rights abuses. People who have looted the treasury have to return the money and face the consequences.

ANA Convention

It is dubbed the biggest Nepali event outside Nepal. New York City is hosting it this year. I will show up tomorrow morning. Guests are already arriving.

Saturday, Sunday, Monday. I will be very busy. I will be moderating a forum on Sunday, another on Monday.

Expect a ton of photos and audio right here at this blog. But perhaps only after it is all over.

The two forces may be kept in separate barracks...... Prachanda stressed that there would be no need of inviting foreigners or international agencies to manage arms and armies. ...... said contentious issues like people's court, Maoist's local governments, and display of arms by the rebel guerrillas would be settled once the interim government was formed.......

En route to People's Supremacy in Nepal: Empowerment of people and Devolution of power- I - By Surendra R Devkota, Sanjaya Parajuli, and Pramod Aryal empowering different nationalities, minorities, and women .... It can be achieved only through political and economic devolution with sovereignty of nationalities..... Democratization only without authority to local community is bound to be unsuccessful ...... people's empowerment is the delegation of authority, accountability, and responsibility to people at different levels, and their representatives, without imposition from higher-ups, for functioning of the community in developing "ownership" under their control....... Nepalis should be empowered in the truest sense for comprehensive development of all respective communities within Nepal who share different socio-linguistic culture and heritage for sustained democratic institutions and rights of every citizen.......... "Devolution" essentially means the flow of governmental control, financing services, and programs to the local bodies for functioning with autonomy. Contrary to unification under one language, religion, and central governance, political devolution with sovereignty would truly unite the country and move ahead towards comprehensive prosperity of nationalities, minorities, women and population at large........ Structural, functional, and fiscal reforms can be accompanied by the replacement of sagging bureaucracy with executives, leaders, and visionaries....... increases entrepreneurship and "ownership" resonating from different nationalities' sovereignty will build confidence in nationhood and governance...... the Dhimal community of Jhapa; Chepang community of Chitwan; Tharus of Chitwan area, Dang, Deukhuri, Banke and Bardiya; Rai-Limbu community of Eastern Nepal hills; Sherpa's around Everest region; Maithali speaking Terai Bashi between Bagmati and Koshi basin; people of Terai origin between Koshi and Mechi basin, or between Bagmati basin and Thori jungle or between Narayani and Rapti basin; Newar community in and around Kathmandu valley; Gurung community around Annapurna Range; Magar community in the hills of Kaligandaki basin; Manang people in Manang valley; Muslim community of Rautahat, parts of Rupandehi/Kapilbastu, Banke and Bardiya; people of Terai origin of Nawalparasi, Rupandehi and Kapilbastu; and Humli of Karnali basin; Dotyal, Acchamis and Aitwal of far western region; and the Dalits who are scattered throughout the country but are destitute........ provide full autonomy, without centralized "Command and Control" structure and the need of permission of a higher authority, to develop local "ownership". This ultimately makes people aligned to guard democratic institutionalization.......... prevent the local community from falling prey to remote central authority marred with the syndrome of "Paralysis by Analysis"........ Two-way flow of information will develop responsible citizenship and responsive and accountable governance....... Access to information and autonomy with authority allows easy access to law, impartial justice and pressures for improved transparent and accountable governance. Service providers (governments and agencies) will be more accountable to the community exercising rights of information and control over the decision-making........ When groups connect with each other across communities they can influence government decision-making and gain collective bargaining power...... increasing citizens' vigilance against corruption, leakages and strengthening democracy..... a common person of remote village of Karnali or far-west can enjoy equal rights as that enjoyed by a member of a civic society. When this is clearly communicated, the local community will protect their rights through consensual awareness, honesty, openness, and will treat every member as an adult.
No interim govt before arms management: MK Nepal The Maoists are still continuing their activities such as forming people's courts, threatening and colleting donations.

Brian Cobb: Perpetual Andolan


Perpetual Andolan
by Dr Brian Cobb

For all the well-deserved anger focused on th politicians and Maoist leaders, the real culprits are getting off scot-free yet again. The people didn't risk, and in some cases lose, their lives to put certain politicians or parties back in power. They didn't even do it so much to get rid of an arrogant, onerous and brutal king. They did it because they want better lives.

Nepal is the 12th poorest country on earth. Mortality, health, educational and other indices are horrifying. But we've all been blaming people who are, at best, only partially responsible for the nation's sorry state.

It really doesn't matter who's in Singh Durbar. Things aren't going to get better. Government is not run by ministers and MPs; it's run by bureaucrats. Despite all the outrage over Maoist extortion, the vast majority of extortion isn't by those with red-starred army caps, but by those with black topis. Just try to register a vehicle or a plot of land, get a visa, or avail yourself of any of the other services your taxes are supposed to be buying you. No baksheesh, no results. Period.

This might seem like small-time skimming to supplement low salaries, but it's much worse than that. It subverts the rule of law, deprives the poor of their rights, and prevents the services upon which civilization depends from reaching the neediest. It maintains an inherently unjust, brutal social order that costs far more lives and causes far more suffering than Prachanda and Baburam ever could.

I've come to the conclusion that the corrupt, urban elite not only neglect the poor, they actively prevent others from helping. I've been sitting in a hotel for over two months awaiting a visa to afford me the privilege of volunteering to help the people in Jumla. In the process I ran across the same Deputy Health Secretary, Dr Bishnu Pandit, who tried to shake me down for a bribe two years ago when I tried to renew my visa so I could do volunteer work. It's not like I'm even knocking his nephew out of a job or asking the MOH to waste its money on anything as frivolous as care for the rural poor. I just want a visa to do something for free that Nepalis won't do for money.

This treatment isn't limited to me. Dr Mark Zimmerman, after 20 years of volunteer service at Patan Hospital, was treated the same way. So have many people from UMN.

So I have a moral dilemma: should I perpetuate corruption and violate the US's Foreign Corrupt Practices Act by paying off the bureaucrats so I can care for a lot of very needy folks who are dropping off like flies from lack of even basic care, or should I pack up and leave and let the people of Karnali fend for themselves?

It's not solely a personal dilemma. It's a question of whether the country wants to institutionalize the spirit of the second Andolan or keep experiencing an Andolan--and probably a civil war--every decade or so? If the Maobadi sell out and join the government as it is, the people will find someone who won't, or at least promises not to.

One can detect a very strong, inverse correlation between the Human Development Index or life expectancy or income and the degree of Maoist activity in any given district. But aside from a few cosmetic resolutions, I'm not seeing any sign that anyone realizes it, or cares.
Cruel cops, sadistic soldiers and predatory prison guards aren't going to guarantee a stable polity. Dedicated doctors and talented teachers will, if the corrupt elite will ever learn the lesson and let them do it.

The racist, zero-sum, exploitative ethos that has dominated Nepal since Prithvi Narayan Shah murdered and mutilated his way to power has to go, de facto and not merely de jure. In the days before widespread literacy, international travel, TV and the internet the people could be deluded enough to think justice and equality don't exist except in the imagination, but now they know better.

So the question is whether the elites will endorse the Andolan or endure more of them.
Prof. Brian Cobb, M.D. Emergency and Critical Care Medicine Cowardice asks the question - is it safe? Expediency asks the question - is it politic? Vanity asks the question - is it popular? But conscience asks the question - is it right? And there comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe, nor politic, nor popular; but one must take it because it is right. --Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

Email From Vijay Karna

Dear Sir/ Madam

You are kindly requested to participate in the Gherao programme for the proportional participation of Madhesi in the state. We are being discriminated since 238 yrs of authoritarian Shah dynasty. The social, political, and economic exclusion and disempowerment of the Madhesis have kept them out of the national process of cultural homogenization just as enforcement of the mono-linguistic policy has resulted in the loss of invaluable cultural assets and identities, debarring them from their legitimate right in the nation-building process.

Even after the restoration of the democracy, we are not treated equal in all sphere of the state. The seven party alliance govt and CPN- Maoist are preparing for the election of Constituent Assembly without giving citizenship of 5 Million Madhesis. The SPA is also not ready to address various issues of Madhes. We realized that without movement, Madhesi will not get their legitimate share in the state and continue to suffer. Keeping above facts in mind, we have established an alliance of different Madhesi individuals and organizations and named Loktrantrik Madhesi Alliance Democratic Madhesi Alliance (DMA)

DMA is a common forum of likeminded individuals and organizations that advocate the rights of Madhesi peoples.

Our Main demands:

  1. Give Citizenship to all stateless Madhesis before the election of Constituent assembly.
  2. Establishment of Federal, Democratic Republican political system.
  3. Proportional Representation of Madhesis in all state structures.
  4. Proportional Representation of Madhesis in the Constituent Assembly (CA) election.
  5. Fresh Census on the scientific basis before the election of CA.

Prachanda power vs people's power By Ashok K Mehta Peace processes have their own dynamics and longevity. The one playing out in Nepal is surely unique: The political settlement was cobbled together even before the armed conflict had ended without any outside facilitation. And the speed with which agreements are being churned out in Kathmandu is both surprising and spectacular. ..... The dramatic turnaround and euphoria is being cautiously ascribed to the "Nepali way" of conflict resolution and numerology...... Count the points. A 12-point letter of understanding, 25-point code of conduct, 10-point parliamentary proclamation, 8-point summit accord and so on. Aggregated, these exceed the 43 demands put up by the Maoists a decade ago...... Many Ambassadors are cooling their heels, unclear about whom they should present their credentials to. Two of them simply went to the King..... Prachanda's political performance at his first Press conference in Kathmandu recently was breathtaking. .. 'The Furious One' was in total command as the SPA leaders minus Mr Koirala were spellbound...... The role of the 31-member Civil Society Monitoring Mission is equally vague. Some of its members, including the chairman, have declined to join it...... The Maoists need to declare the strength, location and weapons of the PLA.... The process of Demilitarisation, Decommissioning and Reintegration (DDR) is very complex and sensitive..... The Maoists are estimated to have an army of 7,000 with approximately 3,500 hand-held weapons. While the strength of the Nepal Army is 90,000, the Armed Police Force is 40,000 and the Police, 60,000....... It is no secret that the destination the Maoists are seeking is a Communist Republic of Nepal...... The Indian Army, with its Gorkha battalions outnumbering the entire infantry of the Nepal Army..... the question of Maoists arms (and intentions).
