List of my ideas for Nepal, tabulated again

  1. Kickstart the river-food industry and the restaurant industry to adapt to it, make Nepal the center for freshwater riverfood.

  2. Nepal seafood recipe competition

  3. Kickstart the 'commodification', ease of starting of traditional and ethnic restaurants, by identifying unique cuisines possibly 80-100 of them(?), figuring out 3-scale menus for them (cheap, medium expensive) for various kinds of restaurants, put easy guides for the supply chain logistics, or self-production of products, sourcing the raw materials, the decoration etc. Figure out chefs to train cooks to produce the best foods, opening way for new innovation.

  4. Ethnic food festival

  5. Ethic food making Youtube competition

  6. Marketing ethnic foods and seafoods to youtubers coming to Nepal

  7. Local governments working with local schools to get trash / waste-management treated as a societal/educational issue, and not a legal obligation issue. Train students to act like Japanese ones so they know to clean their own shit right on from childhood, make them the enforcers of cleanliness in their community.

  8. Local governments empowering construction and design companies doing remodeling to 'ethnic style housing', so that government guarantees economies of scale, and these companies tear town old, falling-apart houses in ancient areas and constructs them in the same style with similar material. In exchange, they get rental rights for the increased space there post-construction.

  9. During monsoon and high-water season in Kathmandu, using Bagmati river as a shopping pavilion on boats (and possibly restaurants and other opportunities). Also fishing industries and restaurant-adjacent industries

  10. River transport in Kathmandu during high-water season, and eventually during all seasons.

  11. Local governments by themselves, or contracting private companies, to run 'laptop exchange' program where they will co-ordinate computer classes for the local community/private school with 1-1 computers available, at a lower cost than the schools themselves can execute.

  12. Emergency warning systems installed in all the major towns, and emergency drills happening every so often (couple of times a year), teaching people what to do, where to go, etc.

  13. Night market to take care of the street vendors

  14. Public transport for later in the night, government supported
