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

Sunita Sharma  New York :- It feels sad to know that the grime ailing scenario at the Tourism Sector hasn’t changed much in many ways till date in Nepal. Prime, Picturesque and Exotic Pokhara a major locale is a destination unparalleled to any other amongst Nature’s abundance. The Machhapuchhre peak is surely one of its kind of Rare Gem in the Great Himalayan Range gifted with a dozen other famous ones. This priceless and unique beauty is sold cheap to the hungry eyed discerning travellers from all over the World, for a handful of peanuts like prices….?

It should be rather rated as one of the best and the most popular Touristic Destinations in the entire region of Asia Pacific itself. To acheive this desired status for Pokhara, the Hotel Operators, Travel Agents and National as well as International Media have to play a vital role to portray it positively. Coming from almost over a decade of Hotel and Hospitality background, in a way it seems of some genuine concern for me too on issues vital like these in this sector. Tourism Promotion is the key agenda for the NRNA Movement that can be much effective and crucial for the overall development of Nepal through economic prosperity.

I also feel that each one of us, the NRNs residing abroad are the unofficial Ambassadors and Goodwill Friends to promote Nepal in some or the other way. This is how I myself feel about Destination Nepal and the Promotion of Tourism in a holistic manner for a better priced market. Last but not the least the current Tourism Promotion Task Force unit of NRNA which is headed by Our V.P. Bhaban Bhatta has been a great accomplishment of recent times. It seems to have greater Prospects for this sector is what I do beleive in. All other units related with Tourism if work closely and in proper coordination in all necessary spheres may bring substantive as well as positive changes in this area.

The Nepal Tourism Board, The Tourism Ministry and other stakeholders like Hotel n Hospitality industry and Travel, Treks public operators and the Small Hotel Association of Nepal are vital partners that need to work together in unison for promotion of Tourism. Participation of the energetic Youth Force and Public participation are equally considered to be beneficial for Tourism’s brighter future Prospects in the years to come and then Nepal will hopefully see economic Prosperity through the untapped potential of Nepal,s Natural Richness through proper Tourism Promotion.
