crazyjizzy Posted April 14, 2006 Author Share Posted April 14, 2006 tourists stay away for no real reason making life even harder for the average Nepali When there are riots in the street, and the pundits are predicting that civil war is near, is that a real reason for tourists to stay away? Â it ain't going to be you I was here first. Â Actually, you probably were not. I started posting here as anonymous in real early, November(?) 2000. I registered a couple of weeks later. I also started climbing in 1975. So there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pundits will predict whatever makes them money. There aren't enough weapons for any kind of carnage (as I said earlier - I've seen similar in Argentina recently) They don't riot in Thamel or any of the other tourist ghettos. The riots I saw (13 injured, total) involved alot of standing aroudn by all parties in between some brick throwing. I'll post a few pictures later. Of course, everythings terrifying from a few halfassed reports from fat westerners who've never left KTM and the western embassy compounds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
