In keeping with tradition, the incumbent finance minister (FM) has done a lot of sweet talk about development, primarily focusing on growth-inducing infrastructure development. The FM also stressed in the budget that top priority would be given to road construction in different parts of Nepal, including so far neglected areas in far- and mid-west. Let us hope the wish list as stated in the budget gets proper attention of the government so that the plans get actualized.</DIV></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/018F38A1-FC87-4137-9EE5-587CBB0FDE33/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content6.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
