Mero 2 Paisa

Having being selected for Aeronautical engineering in the University of Texas, Arlington on 2013, Mr. Rohit couldn’t go due to his some personal as well as family problem. In this podcast, Mr. Rohit recalls it to be one of the best decision of his life and shares meaningful insights on Nepal’s trade condition as well as his company Agriculture Nepal’s contribution on this. During 2013-14 Mr. Rohit started as a voluntary advisor for UN and later worked in two-three companies before starting his own company named Agriculture Nepal. After India imposed trade embargo on Nepal after 2014 earthquake, Mr. Rohit dwelled upon trade data of Nepal and realized the huge trade deficit we were going through. Months of research made him realize export would be beneficial not only for himself but also for the entire nation. Our generation has the opportunity as well as responsibility to move Nepal on its way towards trade surplus. Nepal’s current trade ratio is 1:13 which points out the extreme trade deficit we are going through. Almost 9.2 billion dollars is going out of Nepal every year for import. If it wasn’t for remittance and tourism, our economy would have collapsed long time back. Before 1980’s Nepal was one of the trade surplus nation which shows the downhill we went through in the last few decades. Political turmoil made a serious impact on that matter and now finally after decades we have a stable government. Here, Mr. Aashish and Mr. Rohit share the unfortunate incidents their fathers had to go through during those times of instability and now urges the new generation to exponentially grow and increase production as we need to cover up for not only us but our previous generation.
