A story older than Nepal (misleading tourists). And an article from 6 months ago shows how the govt treats its own people with more examples in HN discussion. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45166972

What is less discussed is what happened to people who were able to identify the scam and refused to let it happen.

Since then, the govt has been overthrown by a Gen Z protest. An interim govt led the national elections and a young party led by young leaders have won 2/3 majority in the parliament.

The new parliament is a radical departure in many ways. Its very hollywoodish if you happen to read the development.
