The Kathmandu I visited in 1974 - a city thinly
populated, without much traffic, dissected by clean rivers and guarded by the
majestic Himalayas - is long gone. Today it is a city of some 4 million
inhabitants. Traffic is chaotic, air dusty and garbage piles up everywhere. Fortunately,
the people are still as friendly as before. But from the way they speak English,
they sound not very different from their southern neighbours now.
