Formal doesn’t have to be boring
February 21, 2020 12:31 pm
There aren’t many places in Kathmandu that sell or tailor formal wear for women. And a few years ago, when Shrija Shrestha went out shopping for a formal blazer to wear to her workplace, she had to roam around half the town before she found one she could make do with. As someone who has always enjoyed dressing up in formal wear, this frustrated Shrestha and right then, she planned to launch her own formal wear store for women in the future. So now, Shrestha has finally gotten around to this plan of hers and launched Ambassador—a formal wear hub for women.

Assessing Kathmandu’s pollution
February 3, 2020 09:33 am
Kathmandu is becoming unlivable because of the seething air pollution. Photos of people wearing masks battling vehicle exhausts and dust often make up to the front page of national dailies. Air pollution has exacerbated and contributed to pulmonary diseases and deaths. It has affected tourism, stultified road-side businesses, and hollowed out the city’s GDP. The harmful pollution contributors such as CO2, N2O and SO2, which trap heat, are also contributing to the melting of glaciers that are at stone’s throw away from the valley
