Quick Predictions
Blogdai predicts that the King will actually use the army that has always been loyal to him. Expect some serious Maoist ass-kicking initially. Everyone, repeat everyone will try to get the King to return to the status quo. Nepali Congress and CPN-UML members are already working for a royal audience. The Maoists will sit for, or at least agree to, peace talks within the month. King will agree to limited consultation with the exiled political parties, but will, for the forseeable future, maintain a much larger chunk of control.
Communications will return. India will become more aggressive in its co-opting of the southern Nepal border for water purposes. China will make a move on the Tibetan population in Kathmandu and in the border regions along the Kodari highway. U.S. will send advance "assessment" teams into the region.
Over the past few years, China has been building and completing heavy transport roads to the Nepal border at Rasuwaghadi, Shywali, Simagaon, and along the Chang-La and Thado in the west. Blogdai hopes this is not an ominous development.
Blogdai is beginning to sound like David Horowitz so now is a good time to stop.

So, who is Blogdai? You have my 5waldos email. Who are you? And what is your aim here? You are beginning to scare some of us. Just to be out there and honest with you. If you want to remain anonymous, I am truly a safe person to tell. And then I can reassure others, and swear that I will reveal nothing.
BBC News: No plans for elections in Nepal : The government of Nepal has said it will not restore multi-party democracy and allow elections until it has defeated Maoist rebels.
More violence... just what Nepalese people want.
yep.. it sure's getting creepy.
shri pashupatinath le hami sabaiko kalyan garun.
well who is this blogdai?
a quick google search reveals that he's been posting on several blogs and message boards encouraging people to contact him if there's any info they want to send to nepal.
a few interesting examples : one, two, three, four, five, six.
Proud of all of you for doing your research. Keep thinking, you'll eventually get there.
Smiles.

Yea it's a little strange how he knows all this stuff... Even ahead of the major news outlets sometimes....
To me its cutting edge, let him go for it, no other is speaking.

well i lived in Nepal for the last 7 years and left last august, frankly i agree with the views of blogdai. and I do feel strongly that the King is the man for the moment considering the way the situation in the country was falling apart...someone just had to stand up and take charge.
p.s. i expected this to happen last dashain.
p.p.s. i think wade campbell should be safe as most of his work was in the rivers inland in sri lanka.
Thank for the info on Wade! Any little bit at this point is welcomed. Curious to hear why you think Dasain is the date.

Is this blog run bya CIA agent?
well paras got his crown princeship before dashain..and thats the only time when everyone from maoists to democrats are to busy partying to react to any political change
whoever this blogdai is..doesnt have a brain of his own cos apparently he needs king to decide for him what is good or bad for him. Only reason king took over is ..he is making it easier for his assheaded son paras to be next king. I hope not to live that long 2 see that day. They talk abt corrupt ppl taking 3-4 karod ..and forget about king who takes 65 karod and plus other resources from nepal every year..he is granted coz he happens to have 'shah' at the back of his name and leaves in big palace...so he has license to kill n do watever with nepalese... next thing..ppl dont have brain of their own..they need paras to tell them if they need freedom. I heard paras is already making plans to be next king soon..u know what I mean :( And just a last comment...anyone who r living abroad and enjoying the freedon of everything but be ashamed of themselves for supporting this business man gyanendya
Completely agree.People like blogdai dont deserve to live in a democracy. They should go to Antartica, lease some land and have their neo-totalitarian state there. Hands off Nepal, you skinheads.
Thanks all.
1:18, the only part I could follow was when you called Paras an "ass head", to which I agree.
11:01, it sounds like you pray at the altar of Bill O'Reilly: mean-spirited and over-the-top.

No matter what you say you deserve Sibera for your support to the King over democracy. Someone should take and dump you ther for rest of your life.You will enjoy, more so if you get a solitary, then you will have non onw corrupt there and nothing to comlain about democracy.

Thanks a lot!
No no not Siberia I would stll insist on Antartica. Putin controlls Siberia, so these right wing skinheads dont deserve to be anywhere near a democracy. We can even send them to Mars or something!
As an American, I would be surprised to see the President send "advance" teams to the region. We have our plate a little full right now. I support the President and his policies, but believe he must follow American interests first. I do, from my limited knowledge of the Nepali situation, support the King's actions. If he must clamp down and hold "total" power for some time in order to stamp out the "chains" that Maoism would bind the Nepali people in--then so be it. Do not complain about the King's temporary actions. If you would only look to China you will see a society that has been repressed since the days of Mao--with no freedom in sight. Be patient my friends and keep the hopes of freedom and democracy near your heart!
