ANG DAWA SHERPA SCALED SEVEN TIMES MT. EVEREST

On 16th May 2019, Ang Dawa Sherpa made history by scaling majestic and towering Mount Evers by seventh time. He is a professional mountaineer who has repeatedly proved that his ambitions are higher than Mountain Everest. Indeed, this was his great achievement, and he is very happy on this landmark achievement.

Recently, he has successfully scaled Mount Lhotse also. With the height of 8516 meters, Mount Lhotse is the world fourth highest peak. The mind-blowing thing about this expedition is that Ang Dawa Sherpa took only climb to summit from base camp and then to go back base camp from summit. During this expedition, he also helped other teams which were facing problems due to the high level of disrupting traffic. This was his first ever expedition to summit Mount Lhotse

The Nile Bridge part of Global Greening for St. Patrick’s Day

The Embassy of Ireland in Uganda, in partnership with the Uganda Tourism Board (UTB) and the Uganda National Roads Authority, illuminated the “Source of the Nile” Bridge green ahead of Ireland’s national day, St. Patrick’s Day, which takes place annually on March 17. This marks the fifth year that Uganda has participated in the Global Greening initiative, an event that sees over 300 famous landmarks and iconic sites across the world go green for March 17. In the past, these have included the Great Wall of China, the Pyramids in Egypt, Table Mountain in South Africa, and the Equator Monument in Uganda, among others. The Source of the Nile Bridge monument was chosen as a unique symbol of a bridge between two peoples and two nations, bringing Ireland and Uganda closer together. The River Nile is a major source of tourism, and Ireland is privileged to bring attention to this distinctive aspect of Uganda’s geography and culture.

The event is a boost to both Uganda and Ireland’s tourism as images of the activity are shared across the world. Images will also feature on the website and social media sites of the Embassy of Ireland to Uganda, the Tourism Ireland website, and several news media channels around the world.

Ambassador William Carlos shared: “We are very excited to be partnering with UTB once again on the Global Greening and to have identified such an iconic landmark as the Source of the Nile Bridge. The Bridge is a symbol of two nations and two peoples forging a connection and a friendship. The River Nile is a great source of tourism in Uganda, and we are delighted to shine a green light on it.”

Lilly Ajarova, UTB Chief Executive Officer, welcomed the partnership with the Embassy of Ireland, noting “Uganda’s participation in this Irish greening initiative is part of our long working relationship with the Embassy of Ireland. The greening initiative has supported us to showcase our unique tourism attractions to the whole world. We are delighted that the new Source of the Nile Bridge will be the greened attraction this year,” she said, adding, “We wish the Irish a great St. Patrick’s Day.”

The eagerness of cities and countries worldwide to take part in the Global Greening initiative underlines the strength of the deep connection that people all over the world feel to Ireland. More than 70 million people around the world claim links to the island of Ireland and St. Patrick’s Day is a truly unique opportunity to connect these people and others worldwide with Irish culture and heritage.

Chisapani hiking way

Deepak Neupane, kath,andu : It was a Saturday and sunny day as well. We were almost 16 together and we were divided into 2 groups. Eight of us were in hiking mood where as other half decided to take the bus in order to vist Chisapani. So we planned in such a way that hikers will move early in the morning and those who were coming through bus will move around after 4 hours. So in the morning we started our hike. We move to old Bus Park from where can reach Sundarijal directly. Otherwise we had to take Sundhara-chabhel-Bouddha-Jorpati-Sundarijal route, changing micro bus at each place. After reaching Sundarijal, we did some shopping for hiking. We bought chips and chocolates. Then we started hiking, the first two hours was like hell, a straight continuous steep uphill path which never looked like ending. We took lots of short rests during the first two hours of hiking. During this two hours of hiking we passed through Shivapuri National Park. We need to buy a tickets to enter the National Park. On the way we found some shops where we can buy drinks and snacks. The hiking was like walking in the Jungle. You never know what’s ahead of your journey. So after 3 hours of hiking finally we started moving downhill. It was a bit of relief for all of us. We started seeing some houses far away on hills. Ya that seemed to be Chisapani. So after 4 hours of hiking we reached Chisapani. It’s a very good place with open space. We can see Himalayan ranges like Ganesh Himal and Langtang range as well from there.
 At chisapani, there are only few numbers of resorts and hotels. Rooms are quite cheap in compared to Nagarkot and Dhulikhel. We took some rest and had tea and wai wai soup. We waited for our 8 friends who were supposed to come by bus. After few minutes we saw all of them coming on a tripper truck. It was so funny seeing them like that. Actually the roads were not so good and on top of that they did not find any bus that’s why they could only managed to book truck. After that we all got fresh and started our program. We played some team building games like paper dance, number games and others. Then we started preparing BBQ and had some drinks. Around 1 AM mid night we move to our bedrooms. 
Next morning, all of us started taking pictures of the beautiful mountain ranges. The morning view from our hotel was just awesome. So after taking breakfast, all of us decided to take the same truck for downhill ride. Yes of course the road was not so good, so it was really a thrilling ride back to Sundarijal. Thankfully all of us reached sundarijal in safe state.

Jet Airways crisis: Naresh Goyal writes letter to employees

Jet Airways Chairman Naresh Goyal has asked employees to have trust in management and to ignore media reports. In a letter to Jet Airways’ employees, Goyal has said that the airline would rationalise operations and open new routes. “This is a time when there is a global pause to take stock, chart fresh resolves and shore up courage to face the unknowns of the New Year. There are bound to be many (unknowns) in an industry as dynamic and globally competitive as ours. Stronger then, should be our resolve to relook at all costs and rebuild our yields and revenue,” he wrote.

Listing out the positives, Goyal wrote that Jet Airways has started its flights on various new routes. “Our London route remains our premium revenue earner. We are focusing on Amsterdam and Paris routes to heighten passenger loads and enhance yields in a highly competitive market,” Goyal said. He said the airline would continue to rationalise operations and open new routes like Mumbai-Manchester and Pune-Singapore. The airline is withdrawing flights to nine destinations in India and West Asia from February, while adding new services from its hubs in Mumbai and Delhi.

Earlier this month, cash-crunched Jet Airways decided to do away with complimentary meals for economy class passengers travelling on domestic routes under two more fare categories as the full-service airline looks to trim costs. The revision in fare offerings will be effective for tickets booked from December 21, for travel starting January 7, Jet airways said in a release Monday. The carrier currently offers five fare options in the economy class – light, deal, saver, classic and flex – for customers booking flights on domestic routes.

About Flair Airlines Edmonton International Airport

The Canadian Union of Public Employees has filed 72-hour strike notice for Local 4060, representing 139 flight attendants who work for ultra-low-cost carrier Flair Airlines. Flair Airlines is an airline based in Kelowna, British Columbia, Canada. It operates scheduled passenger services in Canada, as well as chartered passenger and cargo services in Canada, the United States, the Caribbean region, and to destinations worldwide from its main base at Edmonton International Airport. The union issued the strike notice following a December 5 mediated session with the employer in which the two sides failed to reach an agreement over outstanding items including wages and pensions as well as time credits/scheduling issues.

“For the past several weeks, this employer has steadfastly refused to step away from its position of two-tier wages and benefits, which is fundamentally unfair,” said CUPE National Representative Gary Yee, who represents CUPE 4060 at the bargaining table. “Flair is transparently engaging in a divide and conquer strategy aimed at driving a wedge between workers in order to compete with other ultra-low-cost carriers. It is completely unfair to pay one group of flight attendants 30 per cent less for doing the same work as other flight attendants.”

Flair bases in Canada are located in TorontoCalgaryEdmontonKelownaand Abbotsford. Since being organized November 2017, Local 4060 has been in bargaining with the airline for nearly a year. The 72-hour-strike notice expires at midnight on December 10, putting the local in a legal strike position. CUPE 4060’s 139 flight attendants work from bases in Abbotsford, Kelowna, Calgary, Edmonton, and Toronto. Since the summer of 2018, when Flair shifted its business model from a charter to “ultra low-cost carrier” (ULCC) service, the company has offered regular flights to eight Canadian and six U.S. cities. Since CUPE organized Flair flight attendants in November 2017, Local 4060 has been in bargaining with the airline for nearly a year.

नौ पटक सगरमाथा चढेका शेर्पा ओझेलमा

आएका छन् । गरिबीका कारण सानैदेखि विदेशीको भरिया भएर कामको शुरुवात गरेका शेर्पाले हालसम्म ट्रेकिङ क्षेत्रमा निकै ठूलो योगदान दिइसकेका छन् । बुबा, आमा, शिक्षादीक्षा आदि सेरोफेरोमा रहेर बस्नुपर्ने कलिलो उमेरदेखि नै उनी आफ्नो र परिवारको पेट पाल्न विदेशीको भरिया भएर काम गर्न वाध्य भए । १३ वर्षको उमेरदेखि नै भरिया भएर ट्रेकिङ क्षेत्रमा छिरेका उनले हालसम्म देश, विदेशलगायत नेपालमा रहेको विश्वको सर्वोच्च शिखर सगरमाथाको धेरै पटक आरोहण अवरोहण गरिसकेका छन् । तर विडम्बना नै भन्नुपर्छ विश्वको सर्वोच्च शिखरलगायत अन्य जटिल हिमालहरु कामदारको रुपमा चढेकाले उनी आम समुदायबीच ओझेल छन् अर्थात् धेरै पटक सगरमाथालगायत अन्य हिमाल चढिसकेका पासाङ रिन्जि शेर्पा भनेर कहि कतै उल्लेख छैन् ।

उनी भन्छन्, ‘मैले सन् २०१५ भित्र नेपाल साइडबाट नौ चोटी सगरमाथा चढिसकेको छु ।’ भनिन्छ नि, मान्छेले कि त पढेर जान्दछ, कि त परेर जान्दछ । हो त्यस्तै हुन्, शेर्पा परेर पर्यटक क्षेत्रको ज्ञाता हुन् । तर, भाग्य भनौं या परिस्थिति उनलाई न कसैले चिन्छ, न त राज्य वा कुनै निकायले सम्मान स्वरुप प्रमाणपत्र दिनु बाहेक अरु कुनै सहयोग, हौसला आदि नै दिएको छ । ‘अमाडब्लम हिमाल (Ama Dablam) चार चोटी चढिसकेको छु । यो हिमाल सन् २०१३ मा २४ घण्टाभित्र दुई चोटी चढेको हुँ,’ भन्ने शेर्पाले हिमालहरु चढे वापत भने धेरै प्रमाणपत्रहरु प्राप्त गरेका छन् । शेर्पाले संस्कृति, पर्यटन तथा नागरिक उड्डयन मन्त्रालयबाट वि.सं.२०६२ जेठ १७ गते अमेरिकाका दान्ड एल्लेन ह्यान ९मबलम ब्भििल ज्बजल० को नेतृत्वमा २००५ आई.एम.जी. एभरेष्ट एक्स नामक पर्वतारोही दलसँग कामदारको हैसियतले ८८४८ मिटर अग्लो सगरमाथा सफलतापूर्वक आरोहण गरेकोले प्रमाणपत्र पाएका छन् । उनले पर्यटन तथा नागरिक उड्डयन मन्त्रालयबाट सन् २०१०÷०५÷२३ मा संयुक्त राज्य अमेरिकाका नागरिक मिहिचेल आरोन हामिल (Mr.Michael Aaron Hamifll) को नेतृत्वमा २०१०  IMg\ Everest Expindition  नामक पर्वतारोहण दलको उचाइ कामदारको हैसियतले ८८४८ मिटर अग्लो सगरमाथा सफलतापूर्वक आरोहण गरेकोले प्रमाणपत्र पाएका छन् । उनले पर्यटन तथा नागरिक उड्डयन मन्त्रालयबाट सन् २०१०÷११÷०१ मा संयुक्त राज्य अमेरिकाका नागरिक Mr.Brian David Warren को नृेतत्वमा  AGE-Amadablam Expedition F2012  नामक पर्वतारोहण दलको उचाई कामदारको हैसियतले ६८१२ मिटर अग्लो (Ama Dablam)  हिमाल सफलतापूर्वक आरोहण गरेको हुँदा प्रमाणपत्र पाएका छन् । उनले  The Mountaineering Association या Tibet  बाट अमेरिकन रुपसँग सगरमाथा चढेबापत २२ मे २०१६ मा र २७ मे २०१७ मा सम्मान स्वरुप प्रमाणपत्र पाएका छन् । उनले संस्कृति, पर्यटन तथा नागरिक उड्डयन मन्त्रालयबाट वि.सं.२०६४ जेठ ६ गते अमेरिकाका क्यासे आरोन ग्रोमको नेतृत्वमा २००७ आइएमजी एभरेष्ट एक्सपिडसिन(दोस्रो) नामक पर्वतारोही दलको उचाईको कामदारको हैसियतले ८८४८ मिटर अग्लो सगरमाथा सफलतापूर्वक आरोहण गरेको हुँदा प्रमाणपत्र पाएका छन् । उनले संस्कृति, पर्यटन तथा नागरिक उड्डयन मन्त्रालयबाट सन् २०१३÷५÷१८ मा शेर्पाले संयुक्त राज्य अमेरिकाका नागरिक Mr.James Michael Horst को नेतृत्वमा SNT-Everest Expedition-2013 नामक पर्वतारोहण दलको उचाई कामदारको हैसियतले ८८४८ मिटर अग्लो सगरमाथा हिमाल सफलतापूर्वक आरोहण गरेको हुँदा प्रमाणपत्र पाएका छन् । उनले Nepal Mountaineering Association बाट सफलतापूर्वक Helicopter Marshlla Course 12-14 February 2016 मा काठमाण्डु   International Mountaineers’ Memorial Park, Kakanif  बाट सफलतापूर्वक सम्पन्न गरेवापत प्रमाणपत्र पाएका छन् ।

त्यस्तै, नेपाल सरकारको Nepal Academy of Tourism and Hotel Management(NATHM)  बाट ट्रेकिङ गाइडको एक महिने ट्रेनिङ गरेका शेर्पा  achieved grade B  हुन् । उनले पर्यटन विभागबाट सन् २०१३÷११÷१५ मा शेर्पाले संयुक्त राज्य अमेरिकाका नागरिक  Mr.Adrian John Bllainger sf] g]t[Tjdf SN-Amadablam Expedition-F2013  नामक पर्वतारोहण दलको उचाइ कामदारको हैसियतले ६८१२ मिटर अग्लो ब्mब म्बदबिm हिमाल सफलतापूर्वक आरोहण गरेको हुँदा प्रमाणपत्र पाएका छन् । उनले पर्यटन तथा नागरिक उड्डयन मन्त्रालयबाट सन् २०११÷५÷२१ मा संयुक्त राज्य अमेरिकाका नागरिक .Gregory Vernovage  को नृेतृत्वमा 2011 IMg\ Everest Expedition नामक पर्वतारोहण दलको उचाई कामदारको हैसियतले ८८४८ मिटर अग्लो सगरमाथा हिमाल सफलतापूर्वक आरोहण गरेको हुँदा प्रमाणपत्र पाएका छन् । त्यसैगरी, उनले पर्यटन तथा नागरिक उड्डयन मन्त्रालयबाट वि.सं.२०६६ जेठ ८ गते संयुक्त राज्य अमेरिकाका नागरिक Mr. Justin Reese Merle को नेतृत्वमा 200f\9 IMg\ Everest Expedition नामक पर्वतारोही दलको उचाई कामदारको हैसियतले सगरमाथा सफलतापूर्वक आरोहण गरेवापत प्रमाणपत्र पाएका छन् । यसरी उनले धेरै प्रमाणपत्र पाए पनि यतिबेला बेरोजगारीको पीडामा बस्न बाध्य छन् । पर्यटन प्रवद्र्धनमा सरकारी, गैरसरकारी र व्यक्तिगत संघसंस्थालगायतको भूमिका महत्वपूर्ण रहेको हुन्छ ।

अन्तर्रा्ष्ट्रिय पर्यटक नेपाल भित्र्र्याउने लक्ष्यसहित पर्यटन प्रवद्र्धनका लागि सरकारले पहिलेदेखि नै नयाँनयाँ योजनाहरु सिर्जना गर्दै आएको पनि छ । पर्यटन प्रवद्र्धनको लागि पर्यटनमा लागेका व्यक्तिहरुको पनि त्यत्तिकै भूमिका रहन्छ । विशेष ट्रेकिङ क्षेत्रमा लागेका गाइडहरुको पर्यटकका लागि महत्वपूर्ण भूमिका रहन्छ । पर्यटन प्रवद्र्धन हुनुमा गाइडले पर्यटकलाई कत्तिको रिझाउन सक्छ भन्नेमा पनि भर पर्छ । त्यसैले पनि पर्यटन प्रर्वद्धनका लागि धेरै कुराको स्तरोन्नती गर्नुको साथै विशेष दक्ष गाइडको विकास, सम्मान र बृद्घि गर्न सरकारले माहत्वपुर्ण कदम चालु आवश्यक छ । ठलाु जोखिम मोलेर साहसिक काम गर्ने उनै पासाङ शेर्पा जस्ता होनाहार युवा जहिल्यै पनि खाँचो महसुस गर्नु पर्यटन प्रर्वधनको पाटो हो भन्ने महसुस गर्नु अत्यन्तै जरुरी छ ।
