Perhaps the new generation can be free from menstrual taboos

- by Manawi Shah

Menstruation still continues to be a taboo in Nepal, despite several ill practices being outlawed by the Supreme Court of Nepal in 2005. In spite of many protests, the ill practices for this moment still remain in the country, more extreme than in the West. Better known in Nepal as, ‘Chhaupadi’ (menstrual shed), this menstrual taboo has caused women and girls to be exposed to health risks, and disengage from family activities, and daily routines. If you may not be aware of the term ‘Chhaupadi’, it originated from the western parts of the country, sprouting through superstitions and myths. People from some Far-West districts believe that menstruation causes women to be impure temporarily.

The Future Of Telehealth And AI In Business

- by Dr. Shreeja Shikhrakar and Saroj Wagle

First and foremost, let us understand the meaning of “telehealth.” The word ‘tele’ means “distance” and ‘health’ means “to heal”. Another synonym of telemedicine by Time Magazine as “healing by wire”. Telemedicine also refers to the practice of medicine at a distance whereby information technology is used to ensure the delivery of medical care services. By using mobile phones, laptops, and computers, healthcare providers and doctors can communicate with their patients virtually and write prescriptions or follow-ups. But, at the same time, with the rise of innovative technologies and the use of AI in healthcare — healthcare businesses have taken a different shape, from traditional styles to telehealth.

It has become increasingly difficult for communities because of unpredictable and extreme weather events, especially those that are already vulnerable to climate stresses.

Portfolio Management

- by Saroj Wagle

Indeed, ‘portfolio management’ is all about a concept that promotes the idea of diversification. To be honest, let me tell you that the idea of managing your own investments can feel daunting, but no matter how much money you’ve, there is a level of portfolio management right for you. Simply put, however, it can be either passive or active in nature. Most tellingly, on the one hand, passive management is a set-it-and-forget-it long-term strategy that often involves simply tracking a broad market index — commonly referred to as indexing or index investing. On the other hand, active management instead involves a single manager, co-managers or a team of managers who attempt to beat the market return by actively managing a fund’s portfolio through investment decisions based on research, and decisions on individual holdings. Apart from this, the business strategy underpins successful project portfolio management. Here is what I’d like to say: strategy refers to the long-term direction as well as scope of an organization, working towards the goals of growth in the competitive landscape.

The Child by Destiny

- by Bhoj Kumar Dhamala

Mother, Manamaya, wanted to abort the fetus when she knew the unborn was female in her pregnancy. I don’t think her unconscious mind had internalized another baby boy. Having been in the conventional society, she by then was convinced that daughter would as well be her support in her old and hard times.

Investment Discipline

- by Saroj Wagle

In fact, there is a misconception about ‘investment’— is that a big fat money in your bank account while just getting started. However, the true fact is that the process of building a strong investment can begin with a few dollars or pennies. Yes, it is, indeed. At 11 years old Warren Buffett, for example, bought his first stock at a cost of $38 per share. So, my simple logic is that there are no age limits as well as how much money you will be investing in the stock market or elsewhere for investment. On top of that, however, an early investment can make a lot of sense because your money has enough time to grow into a substantial surplus fund that will serve you well in times of need.

The Call of the Mountains

- by Cindrella Mainali

You only realize the value of something when you do not have access to it anymore, whether it’s money, good health, or a good friend. For me, that something is the mountains. Growing up in Kathmandu, mountains always surround you from all sides. They greet you every morning, and if you’re an early riser, you may also spot the stunning snow-clad ranges twinkling in the morning sun. Mountains in Kathmandu are so common that you sometimes forget how beautiful they are. You treat them like a parent: you know they’re there, so you take them for granted.
