"The Bundh ruined my life" |
There have been reports of people being threatened if they are out driving or if their shop is open and in some places buses have been blown up. To be clear, I am safe. Being a foreigner, I should be left alone. Also, Kathmandu is a large city and although major grocery stores have closed, the street markets and small vendors tend to be open.
Never underestimate how important it is for people to feel like they have a voice and are being heard. I would think that's true of most people groups and countries. The street art above is done by a few artists around Kathmandu. A lot of the new art recently are about the government and the bundhs. That's one way to express your voice.
