The Embassy of Nepal in Sri Lanka, in association with Nepal Tourism Board, organized a "Nepalese Food Promotion" festival at the Cinnamon Grand Hotel in Colombo from 02 to 12 July 2009. This is the first-of-its-kind program organized to promote Nepal in Sri Lanka.
The 11-day fete was attended by over 1000 guests, including nearly 200 special guests of the Embassy drawn from among leaders of business community, tourism professionals, social and political personalities and senior government officials of Sri Lanka as well as ambassadors, high commissioners and other senior diplomats based in Colombo.
Hon. Hussain Bhaila, Deputy Foreign Minister of Sri Lanka; Dr. A T Ariyaratne, Founder President of Sarvodaya Shramadana Movement; Mr. Nihal Rodrigo, former Secretary General of SAARC, and many other eminent friends of Nepal in Sri Lanka attended the event as distinguished guests.
Welcoming the prominent guests on various days of the fete, His Excellency Durga Prasad Bhattarai, Ambassador of Nepal to Sri Lanka, shed light on various aspects of food habits and food items as well as music and crafts of Nepal, and expressed the confidence that the event would help bring Sri Lankan people closer to Nepal, and fuel their interest to visit Nepal several times in future.
Chefs Yuba Raj Pokhrel and Shyam Krishna Nagarkoti of Hotel Soaltee Crowne Plaza, Kathmandu, entertained the guests with a wide range of authentic Nepali cuisine for dinner from 7.00 PM to 11.00 PM everyday during the period. The Chefs were nominated and supported for the purpose by the Hotel Association Nepal and Nepal Tourism Board respectively.
The guests were also entertained with Nepali folk songs and music by a group of artistes led by popular singer Bom Bahadur Karki of Radio Nepal, at the invitation of the Embassy. The team's musicians Krishna Bahadur Gandharba (Sarangi), Chitra Kumar Magar (Bansuri) and Udi Ram Khadka (Madal) added a distinct Nepali tone to the event and remained a good part of attraction throughout.
A continuous multimedia presentation on Nepal and a permanent display of the 'Nepal Tourism Year 2011' banner and other promotional materials supplied by Nepal Tourism Board and Nepal Trade and Export Promotion Centre, enhanced the festival. [July 17, 2009] |

Saad Naseer (USA) - The Last Member of Peak Freaks Everest Expedition Arrives in Nepal |
Saad Naseer from Chicago, USA, a member of the Peak Freaks Everest Expedition group arrived in Kathmandu yesterday. He took a flight to Lukla this morning at 7:15 a.m. From Lukla he trekked to Jorsale, and reached the place at 11a.m.
He is the last team member to arrive in Nepal. Saad's mission is to set a record for the rapid Everest ascent. His goal is to climb officially from the Base Camp on May 10- make it to the summit and reach the base camp by May 27- a rapid ascent of 17 days & 30 days from Kathmandu - the summit - and back to Kathmandu.
He has spent the past five weeks sleeping in a High Altitude sleeping chamber designed by a Canadian based company named Altitude Tech. According to the company, sleeping in the tent will change Saad's oxygen saturation slowly in his blood stream helping him to acclimatize well before he even arrives at the mountain. If this proves to be true, it may be that climbers won't need to take so much time away to attain the acclimatization needed to climb Everest. [April 28, 2008] |
