The general election in Nepal is scheduled for 10 April. So, less than 3 months are left. Naturally, for this election, many international observers will visit Nepal and they will closely monitor the election. Too much is at stake in this election. The election result will determine the future of monarchy in Nepal. So, the presence of international observers will help to increase the credibility of the election.

Appreciating the continued support from friendly countries and other members of the international community to Nepal's peace process, the Foreign Minister also requested them to send election monitoring missions and media persons to Nepal.

    "While appreciating the continued and strong support extended by the friendly countries and the international community to our peace process over the period, the government of Nepal would like to request for sending observers and media persons to observe and support our election process so that we could show to the outside world our free and fair election process and the transition to the next phase of national building."  

I just hope that Election 2008 becomes acceptable to all the parties in Nepal. Nepalese people have seen a lot of violence and conflict in the last one decade. They really deserve some peace and stability and good governance.
