Does Switzerland have to learn any thing from the Maoist movement of Nepal?
Its not others to say but up to themselves about learning something from the Maoist movement of Nepal. But there also is a kind of understanding that the present political changes would not have been possible if the Maoist had not played the significant role and had not launched the revolution. In this sense, Nepalese peoples political consciousness has become influential. There also we found that the peoples movement has earned much respect. Did you have the discussions with professors and students there? We had discussion on federalism with the professors of Berne University and Pre Berne University. What type of curiosity did the professors there put to you? Everywhere there is positive curiosity. Wherever we went, there were friendly curiosities. The simple farmers seemed to have been touched by a kind of intimacy with the idea that Nepals geography is similar to theirs. On a little bit more intellectual levels, most curiosities were positively centered on the constituent assembly
