HELSINKI, FINLAND: Minister of Energy, Water Resources and Irrigation Pampha Bhusal has said the skills and experience gained by Nepalis in different countries around the world should be used for the prosperity of their motherland. Nepalis who are scattered all over the world seeking employment and education should contribute to the socio-economic development of their country. Addressing a programme organised by the Nepali community living in Finland on the occasion of the upcoming Teej festival on Saturday, Minister Bhusal opined that a situation should be created to respect work in our own country too where we can live a happy life without toiling as hard as we must abroad. "The aim of Nepal now is economic and social development, so you should return and join the campaign to make the country prosperous," she said. The Energy Minister emphasized the need for learning good things from developed countries and using it to build our own country, she said and added, just as the Finns progressed in economic prosperity, Nepalis should also work together to make their country economically strong.
