Dr. Mahabir Pun first dreamed of connecting his small mountain village of Nangi to the internet after spending 6 years trekking 4 days every month to check his email. In 2001, he began a tireless campaign to connect his remote region in the Himalayas to the world. What served initially as a communications tool for these isolated communities has gone on to improve their quality of life in ways they never imagined. He now dreams of creating better educational opportunities and additional income-generating projects for rural Nepal.

    They will survive when the rest of the world have been destroyed. But, of course, until then, it is wise for them to try and develop their society. I hope they will be able to do it in a good way.

    What inspired you about this video? Everything is indeed possible! What an amazing, creative man. I agree with Marylou about the alcohol. It is not necessary in such a beautiful place.

    WOW! I am always amazed at the human spirit, so many dreams and I know everything is possible. I hope they focus on projects that do not involve alcohol. Alcohol takes your consciousness away, we want things that brings you connection, self-awareness and consciousness.
