Nepalis cut back on food as ‘hyperinflation’ and shortages bite (opens the original)
Read excerpt
KATHMANDU – Shanti Belbase, 53, was planning to make sel-roti for dar, a heavy meal eaten by women in preparation for fasting during the Haritalika Teej festival, for her three younger sisters, which began on Sunday. But when she visited the market last week, she was perplexed. “The prices of all commodities needed to make selroti, such as rice flour, sugar, edible oil and spices, have increased,” she said. “Everything is super expensive.” She dropped the idea of preparing selroti, a traditional
LPG crisis deepens in Kathmandu, restaurants on the brink (opens the original)
Read excerpt
KATHMANDU – The cooking gas shortage has deepened in the Kathmandu Valley, with consumers saying they are being forced to return empty-handed despite queuing for hours for a cylinder. The shortage has also pushed restaurants and small eateries to the brink of closure, as an already uncertain supply of liquefied petroleum gas has become increasingly difficult to manage.

EV imports, which had expanded rapidly over the past five years and made Nepal one of the world’s fastest adopters of electric mobility, dropped by 24.03 percent in the last fiscal year ended mid-July, according to the
None of Nepal’s three major China trade points fully operational (opens the original)
Read excerpt
KATHMANDU – Nepal has three major trade border points with China, but for the past several weeks, neither of them are fully operational, disrupting cross-border trade with the northern neighbour and raising fears about supply of goods ahead of major festivals in the country.
