I did know little bit of its use but when I went thru it then it is really WOW!!!!….We can do a lot out of it in respect of our economic growth (create employment and entrepreneurship); nature conservation (Lessen the use of cement and wood, can be cultivated in degraded land); Affordable (very cheap compared to wood, easily available in the most of the geographic part of Nepal) plus inclusion which is the, these days political issues (involvement of the poor and disadvantaged group in making crafts) . As you have mentioned land less dalits and other disadvantaged group who are basically the craftspeople can be the major entrepreneurs of bamboo products if they are given proper skills and knowledge. This could bring the revolution in this concrete buildings age but of course need to make hard effort to convince people to change their mind set to go for the building out of adobe and bamboo. Your drive seems you can do it…. I believe you…. Besides this I like aloo, bodi and tama ko tarkari…..yummy….. aumm!!! tama is my favorite…… Thank you so much that you came with the good experience from many countries and working for our own country.. I feel it great. Bravo…..!!! Go a head!! Wish you for your every success. Your article has really enlightened me on the scope of the bamboo.
