Hospitality leaders from around the world converged here on Monday to participate at the 49th International Hotel and Restaurants Association (IH&RA) World Congress for the interest of all hoteliers’ worldwide. The event is being held in Nepal after almost 27 years.

President Ram Baran Yadav inaugurated the three-day event that is expected to make wider impact on the burgeoning tourism sector of the country and facilitate the interest and rights of tourism entrepreneurs around the world.

President Yadav hoped that the event would help Nepal be recognised across the globe and disseminate a positive message to world travellers. “As the government has accorded high priority for the tourism sector under Public Private Partnership (PPP), such an event would boost confidence of the Nepali hospitality sector.”

Minster for Tourism and Civil Aviation Lokendra Bista Magar said under PPP, the government has adopted a liberal policy for the development of the tourism sector and facilitate tourism entrepreneurs. “Development of infrastructure is also in high priority of the government.”

IH&RA President Ghassan Aidi said the hospitality sector can make a huge contribution to overcome the economic crisis by attracting capital investment. According to Aidi, around 10 hotels are opened across the globe everyday and each new hotel is provides employment to 100 individuals.

Focusing on several issues affecting the hospitality sector, Aidi added that climate change is one of the issues severely affecting the sector. “It’s time to act for the betterment and sustainable development of the tourism sector, and together we can do it.”

HAN president Prasidha Bahadur Panday said the World Congress will help Nepal to promote itself in the international arena and will also motivate international investors to inject investments here.

Although the government estimates show that the tourism sector contributes around 3 percent to the country’s GDP, HAN says the sector’s contribution stands at as high as 17 percent.

“It is important to acknowledge that tourism is not an isolated industry, but works hand-in-hand with many other small- and large-scale enterprises as well as large scale industries,” said Panday. More than 180 delegates from 30 countries are participating at the congress.

According to HAN, it won the international bid to host the congress during its previous edition held in Lausasnne, Switzerland, in January 2010. (Source: ekantipur)

NAC aircraft deal in December

The umbrella agreement between Nepal and China that has been planned in December will finally approve the purchase of turbo powered aircraft Modern Ark 60 (MA-60) and Y-12 for Nepal Airlines Corporation (NAC).

“During the visit of Chinese prime minister Wen Jiabao in December the country is entering into an umbrella agreement that will pave way for the purchase of MA-60 and Y-12 aircrafts,” said executive chairman of the corporation Manrup Shahi.

The corporation has been planning to purchase ninteen-seater Y-12 and 56-seater MA-60 and has also sent a technical team to China to study its technical aspect and viability.

But the meeting between the two higher level leaders of the two countries will also finalise whether Nepal is purchasing the aircraft on grant or soft loan facility, Shahi, said, adding that the technical report has recommended the purchase of five Y-12 and three MA-60 aircraft, with either half on grant on on Soft loan facility.

The number of aircraft will also depend on the production capacity of the company. The technical team has submitted its report on Friday.

After the high level discussion, Civil Aviation Authority of Nepal (CAAN) and Civil Aviation Authority of China also will discuss on the technical rules and regulation for the flight operation.

“Both of the aircraft MA-60 and Y-12 are well built with European and American parts and Canadian engine which are well known for quality performance,” said NA technical representative Ganesh Thakur. “MA-60 is a certified aircraft of Civil Aviation Authority of China and can be used for flight operation in Nepal too.”

It is a turboprop-powered airliner made by China’s Xi’an Aircraft Industrial Corporation under the China Aviation Industry Corporation I. “The same company which manufactures the MA-60 is also the manufacturer of different parts of Airbus, Boeing and ATR which is used worldwide,” he added.

With an aim to provide cost-effective and high speed broadband internet service to its customers, Nepal Telecom (NTC) is going to upgrade the capacity of its ADSL services.

The company has already started setting up separate broadband remote access servers (BRAS) in the Kathmandu Valley and some major cities outside the valley.

Sajha gears up to begin bus services anew

The government has intensified work to operate Sajha buses under a cooperative model as a means of mass transport in Kathmandu Valley. The Ministry of Labour and Transport Management recently submitted a proposal to this effect to the Prime Minister’s Office.

The increased number of vehicles, road accidents, traffic congestion and unmanageable parkings in the Valley has become a headache for the government. Even Prime Minister Babu Ram Bhattarai has taken the transport management issues seriously of late. Based on the directives issued by the PM to encourage mass transport in the Valley, the transport ministry had forwarded the proposal to re-operate the once famous Sajha buses.

“We have submitted a proposal for the operation of Sajha buses to the PM’s office as part of a plan to reduce vehicle congestion,” said Anil Gurung, the under secretary of the transport ministry. He was speaking in a meeting of the parliament’s Finance and Labour Relations Committee on Tuesday. He said the bus service will be operated with a completely new management system.

Putting an end to almost 50 years of government control, Sajha Yatayat had been transformed into a cooperative with directly elected board directors in May. It has been dysfunctional for the last four years, mainly due to irregularities and political interference.

Sajha Yatayat Cooperative has been planning to procure at least 20 new buses in the initial phase and gradually expand services. During its hey-days, Sajha Yatayat used to operate a total of 182 buses on different routes of the country.

In a separate plan to introduce a mass transport system, the Kathmandu Metropolitan City is also working to bring in a metro bus service in Kathmandu. It has already called for expression of interest to this effect from interested individuals and firms. Gyanendra Bahadur Karki, the spokesperson of the KMC, said the office is planning to operate at least 10 double decker buses for 24 hours a day. “We will soon start work to invite tender as this is also one of our major plans,” he said.

The KMC had decided to introduce metro buses with a view to providing reliable and efficient transport service in a public-private partnership as per a response to a suggestion given by the Metropolitan Traffic Police Division of Kathmandu (MTPD). The MTPD has been facing a tough time managing traffic congestion during office hours for lack of sufficient work force, delay in displacement of old vehicles, increased number of private vehicles and haphazard parking. (Source:ekantipur)

Kathmandu-Hetauda fast-track work gains momentum

The private sector has accelerated work to construct the Kathmandu-Hetauda Tunnel Highway road as per a new concept—’4P’—where even locals are involved as investors.

The highway is expected to be completed in the next four years with an investment of Rs 20 billion.

The proposed highway under the 4P—private, public, people and partnership sectors—will make travel to Hetauda from Kathmandu a one-hour-drive, while the distance covered will be 50 km. Under the 4P model, locals and the general people will invest Rs 10,000 while businessmen will invest Rs 100,000 each. Local government bodies and interested Nepalis living abroad and banks, too, can invest in the project.

As per the plan, each sector will contribute 25 percent of the total cost of the project. “There will be around 100,000 shareholders and the project will be an example for building big-budget infrastructure in a participatory manner,” said Kush Kumar Joshi, the president of the Kathmandu-Hetauda Tunnel Highway Stakeholders’ Committee. He was addressing a stakeholders’ meeting in Markhu, Makawanpur, on Saturday.

Joshi said they are planning to start work within a month after acquiring the survey licence for the detailed project report (DPR) from the government.

The Nepal Purbadhar Bikas Company Limited has been registered to undertake the highway construction project. The company has a total of 162 promoters, including 86 locals and 76 businessmen representing the private sector. Joshi, who is also the former president of the Federation of Nepalese Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FNCCI) said they have already held consultations with Prime Minister Baburam Bhattarai, the Non-resident Nepalese Association and bankers in this regard.

Currently, people travelling to Hetauda have to take the Tribhuvan Highway route that is a 133-km stretch or the Kathamndu-Mugling-Hetauda section that is 227 km. Traffic on the planned tunnel highway or fast-track is expected to increase by 6,000 vehicles a day. Currently, the Tribuvan Highway sees 200 vehicles travelling to Hetauda every day. Lal Krishna KC, a member of the stakeholders’ committee and a highway expert, said they will first build a tunnel having a length of 3.5 km between Bhimphedi and Kulekhani in Makawanpur that can be crossed in three minutes. He said it will cost them around Rs 10 billion for the construction of the tunnel.

It is estimated that the company will start getting profits within 5-8 years of the highway’s operation. Once opened, traffic coming from the Western part of the country is also expected to opt the Mugling-Hetauda-Kathmandu route.

Apart from businessmen and locals, Nepali contractors, too, are joining hands to have the project completed. “We will soon begin consultations with international firms for the construction of the tunnel,” said Jayaram Lamichhane, the president of Federation of Contractors’ Association of Nepal (FCAN). He said the road will be built or widened by Nepali contractors, while the tunnel that needs more expertise will be built in partnership with international firms. (Source:ekantipur)
