Tek Nath Rizal And The Bhutani Hostage Crisis


Solve The Bhutani Refugee Crisis: Send Them West

It used to be the Bhutani refugee crisis, but not any more, not after Moriarty has offered to take 60,000 of the 100,000 refugees and several other countries have pitched in to take the rest.

Now we have a hostage crisis.

Tek Nath Rizal and his lieutenants of the so called Bhutan democracy movement are holding 100,000 Bhutanis hostage.

This reminds of Girija's mindset a few months after the king's coup. The guy had just come out of house arrest. And he still was talking against the idea of a constituent assembly. He still did not see that a constituent assembly was the only meeting point for the three political forces in the country.

And now we have Girija's second cousin Tek Nath Rizal. These Bahuns have to be related to each other.

He has been through a lot personally and I respect that. A few months back at a program I was one of the people who donated money to him.

But who has suffered more? Tek Nath Rizal or the 100,000 plus Bhutani refugees in the sub-human camps in Jhapa? Or is it really even about suffering? Is the competition to suffer the most? I don't think so. Perhaps the reverse.

Bhutan is of great interest to me. That might end up being the first country into which we export the April Revolution. It is between that and Zimbabwe. Burma can not be far behind. Both for the September 16 rally and the February 1 rally, and another non-Nepal rally I attended near the UN, I saw a few Burmese souls in quiet vigil for their country. (September 16 Protest Rally, February 1 New York Rally Photos) They deserve to be heard. And those who took part in Nepal's April Revolution are best positioned to help, because the message from the April Revolution is that you have all it takes. You are sufficient on your own.

Nepali Convention Leadership Weekly Meeting

My friend Banshalal Tamang ( Nepal Democracy 7, Jackson Heights) here in the city is part of a Buddhist group that has started work to network into the Buddhist community in Bhutan. It is not just the Bhutanis in the south, the ethnic Nepalis, who deserve democracy. Those in the north deserve it just as much.

Tek Nath Rizal is going to have to grow out of his comfort zone. He is going to have to let the Bhutanis go. Go west from where they can organize better. Many of them might never go back to Bhutan, and that's okay. They will stay back and contribute to Bhutan's rapid economic growth after they have helped turn it into a federal republic.

But they sure are going to be some of the strongest soldiers of the Bhutan democracy movement. Further away they are going to feel even more intensely. When people are far away, they bond more easily, because they miss home. There is less petty fighting. There is more idealism.

So I say to Tek Nath Rizal, let go. You are not doing anyone favors. If your entire strategy depends on the Bhutani king doing your will, you will fail. Get more proactive than that. Depend more on your own options. Right now you have been handed a godsend option.

Moriartys' offer caught me by surprise. This is totally out of the box. It is generous. It is humane. It is pragmatic. Let your soldiers of democracy feed themselves well, so they can fight better. You don't win by starving them. Of food, of basic dignity.

Send them west.

In The News

Citizenship Bill discriminatory: OHCHR-Nepal Kantipur The current Bill is discriminatory on the grounds of gender and could result in discrimination against displaced persons and members of marginalised groups ...... international human rights law protecting the rights of individuals on matters relating to nationality and citizenship ...... any domestic laws which conflict with international treaties to which it is a State Party are invalid under the Nepal Treaty Act ....... the current draft of the Citizenship Bill is discriminatory against women and is therefore in contravention of the Convention on the Elimination of Discrimination Against Women (CEDAW), which requires Nepal as a State Party to embody the principle of gender equality in its national legislation and added, section 4 of the Bill sets out provisions which make it more difficult for a child born of a Nepali mother and a foreign father to gain citizenship than for a child born of a Nepali father and a foreign mother ......... the Bill also sets out provisions which discriminate against a foreign partner of a Nepali woman, in terms of their qualifying for citizenship ...... In relation to displaced persons, members of marginalised groups and of the diaspora, OHCHR-Nepal is especially concerned about the provisions of Section 8 of the Citizenship Bill which require the presentation of certain types of documentation in order to qualify for citizenship. These provisions are likely to create major obstacles for many people of Madhesi background, including from Terai Dalit communities and indigenous communities, who for historical reasons do not currently have citizenship or the sort of documentation required. Many displaced persons do not have documents such as land certificates or have not been included in any census or voter lists due to their displacement ........... These provisions are contrary to the obligations of Nepal as a signatory of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights and the International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination. “In recent meetings with representatives from marginalised communities, such as Madhesis, Dalits, women from Terai communities and indigenous communities, I have heard their concerns about the Citizenship Bill.
Poor commitment snags resolution on women Several women political leaders encircled the Nepali Congress (Democratic) office on June 22 under their phasewise pressure campaign to make the government implement a House of Representatives resolution on 33 per cent women's participation. Strangely, none of the 10 parliamentary committees formed that very day had any woman member. .... the political party leaders also do not trust women's leadership. Due to male domination, males are prioritized when it comes to positions of power. "They think only they can take the right decisions ...... lack of commitment among the leaders and their mentality remains unchanged. ...... There should be initiatives from all sectors like education, civil service, police and army ...... "There is still the hangover that women can't perform." ...... Political parties too have a great role in implementing the resolution by giving 33 per cent of seats in the Constituent Assembly to women

Nobel for GPK? Hardly had people started to talk about the prospect of Prime Minister Girija Prasad Koirala (GPK) winning the Nobel Peace Prize when a friend of mine shot an email to a group of close pals on November 10: "I'm unable to vote for Girija babu for the Nobel even though I want to vote as a Nepali for a Nepali. Am I overreacting? Could you please convince me why must I vote?" ....... there are others who scoff at the very idea of nominating GPK for the Nobel as if it was the most ridiculous suggestion they have ever come across ...... his not-so-dazzling past. The Lauda Air controversy, his failure to institutionalize intra-party democracy, the unhealthy rivalry with senior colleagues, and his lackluster performance as head of government ...... faces of Govinda Raj Joshi, Khum Bahadur Khadka, Bijaya Gachchhedar and Sujata Koirala, taking a further toll on the GPK image ...... GPK fully deserves the Nobel Peace Prize for 2007. ....... GPK is in his 60th year of relentless struggle for democracy. ...... hardly any other surviving leader in the world has fought for democracy for so long and so persistently ...... He has played a leadership role during all the three big political movements of Nepal (1950, 1990 and 2006) ..... undeclared commander of the peaceful April Uprising. His life is truly an unending hurricane of political activism. ....... it was GPK who took the bold and far-reaching step in the autumn of 2003 of reaching out to the Maoist leadership ....... From the Delhi meeting to the signing of the Comprehensive Peace Agreement on November 21, Koirala has played a key role in bringing the Maoists to mainstream politics. ....... there is hardly an example in modern history where almost one-fourth of a country's population came out onto the streets demanding peace and democracy. If the leader of that successful uprising doesn't deserve the Nobel Peace Prize, who does? ....... A person who truly deserved the Nobel Peace Prize more than any one else in the entire history of the Nobel Prize itself never got one. .... Mahatma Gandhi ...... GPK has nothing to lose by not winning his Nobel.
