Dear Nepali citizens and foreign lovers of Nepal,
You might be wondering why Nepal is still poor when its countries of
equal economic status has reached the sky with booming economic
development.
Let me try to answer – this is one of the reason, I have recently found.

Nepal is one of the poorest counries of the world but Nepal's king is
the highest paid king of the world.

The income of Nepali king Gyanendra Bir Bikram Shah Dev is :
2,426 times higher than that of Chinese president
318 times higher than that of Indian president
301 times higher than that of Pakistani president
173 times higher than that of Russian president
57 times higher than that of French president
15 times higher than that of British president
10 times higher than that of American president

Netherlands queen's income : Rs. 22,32,00,000 (per capita income Rs 17,25,120 )
American president earns Rs. 3,24,00,000 (1,15,20,000 returns in tax),
(per capita income Rs 25,24,320)
Japanese king earns Rs. 22,23,52,000 (per capita income Rs.24,15,600)
Chinese president earns Rs. 1,35,000 (per capita income Rs 67,680)
Indian president earns Rs. 10,11,000 (per capita income Rs 34,560)
French president earns Rs 57,96,000 (per capita income Rs 15,84,000)
Pakistani president earns (after the coup) Rs 10,94,000 (per capita
income 29,520)
British Queen does not get any salary from the state. She has a
property of Rs 30,24,00,00,000 (the profit of investiment, after
paying the tax, is hers) but even her neckless is the property of the
country.
British president earns Rs 2,19,58,000 (per capita income is Rs 18,16,200)
Russian president earns Rs 19,03,000 (per capita income is Rs 1,54,000)
Belgean king receives salary as a civil servant (per capita income is
Rs 16,74,000)
And,
Nepali king earns Rs 61,91,00,000 (per capita income is Rs 16,560=US$ 230)
[This means the Nepali king earns Rs. 19,878 times higher than a
citizen. Last year it was 37,385 times higher. Thus a citizen can earn
as much as the king earns in a year only after working for 19,000
years or in 316 lives. Ho la!]

Appendix
Nepali royal family is involved in various business.
A king does not have to pay tax according to Nepal's constitution.
The present king has inherited the property of earlier king's family
and nobody knows how much it is.
This king has taken Rs 1,06,45,00,000 in past three years for his small family

US dollar 1 = Rs 72
Nepal has a writing system of giving comma after two digits except the last.

WILL CERTAINLY OPEN THEIR EYES.

kehi comments haru drop garnu la.

....way too much

Yes, keep the momentum ..velocity bro...

How much your father, Uncles and Brothers earn montly and yearly?

It would be the best start to talk about.

again the same,, why don't they read and think there is no president in Britian.

Velocity, thanks for the Info --- worth a cut and paste and save as .txt file with 2 backup copies, one in gmail virtual drive and other in CD. :D Which I did... But there is a question which bugs my head more... All the politicians in Nepal who are not in power right now, how are they surviving... I mean, what are their source of income? Do they earn money being a member of a party? I believe not all the politicians have ranch in Biratnagar or ancestral in the middle of Kathmandu or are treated as King in Dadeldhura. Seriously, I don't know, and don't get me wrong, I don't give a ratass about King or any Politicians... Been there done that, ain't going back there anymore...:D Thanks

* ancestral = ancestral house.. eh.

According to the webster dictionary,

Main Entry: 1earn
Function: transitive verb
Etymology: Middle English ernen, from Old English earnian; akin to Old High German arnOn to reap, Czech jesen autumn
1 a : to receive as return for effort and especially for work done or services rendered b : to bring in by way of return
2 a : to come to be duly worthy of or entitled or suited to b : to make worthy of or obtain for
- earn·er noun

So, technically King must be a real hardworker even if the figures posted were true.

Peace,
