this the true feeling of missing their own community and coutry. Welldone organiser, deeds are worthless.
keep it up
Yea it is a nice tradition, Ifeel we are becaming more nepali now.It is a great deed because we are able to organize such a important program in different parts of the world.
The Nepalese community (people from Nepal) in Arizona also celebrated Bhanu Jayanti with much fun and pump. I beive it is the tradition set by the Bhutanese from Norway and other will follow their suit in the future.
Thanks
