DEAR DORJE,

I loved your presentation and my eyes were glued to you till the end. I held on to your every word and I think now, you have become my biggest source of inspiration. I just want you to know that we really appreciate what you are doing and hope that we can follow your steps by making difference in people’s lives.

YOUR PRESENTATION was really interesting and inspiring. What inspired me the most was that through education we all can grow wings and realize our potential to develop the country or to help other human beings. Thank-you for the wonderful and meaningful presentation. It meant a lot to me.

YOUR PRESENTATION was amazing. I like the way you spoke and fluently of English although the voice was a bit small. Our children SMD kids and teachers knew that we are still back warded than the ruling class (Brahmin, Chhetris). It would have been better if you had suggested our kids that they need to work harder than other normal people to come forward. Hoping for another presentation.

THE WORKSHOP you did was good and effective to our kids and as well as for our teachers. They also know about the discrimination between male and female and education is very important for all the people.

FIRST OF all, I would like to thank Mr. Dorje Sir for your valuable presentation and your time which you spent to us and our kids. I liked your presentation, which was fruitful to our kids. They learn so many things from your presentation and we the teachers also learn so many things about teaching strategies. Our kids also learn that if they work harder they can achieve their goal.

Thank you so much.

I AM very grateful toward the SMD School for providing me to attend Mr. Gurung’s presentation. This presentation was really inspiring and it was motivational. He really tried to show real face of Nepalese Society and encouraged especially marginalized group to fight for their rights.

I expected was to discuss more on solutions. I wanted him to explain how a marginalized group can act for their rights in detail. As a whole it was really a good presentation and we (teachers and students) got chance to analyze the society. I would like to thank him very much for his work toward marginalized group and I am also ready to help him from my side.

ALL THE points of presentation are important for marginalization Nepalese people. I totally agree with him and his project because all indigenous people of Nepal exploitation and suffering by rules of high class people in the name of culture, religious and languages.

So, his projects raise hot issue and problems of Nepal. I appreciate all issue and problems of his presentation.

YOUR WORK is so great that I am impressed with your job. Your presentation is so valuable to teachers and students also. From your presentation we know about past and village people how so difficult. Our life is full of struggle so we have to gain more and more knowledge, and our life is full of darkness. You explain each and everything about your life also. So, I’m thankful for your presentation.

THANK YOU very much for your valuable presentation and time. The way you expressed your presentation was very good but it will be better if you also present the solution for those problem in next presentation because most of the people know that presentation’s problems and causes but only few people have knowledge to overcome with that problems. You’re doing a great job i.e. spreading the problems of Nepal. After watching your presentation I have deep regard in my heart for your work.

I wish I could watch your presentation again…keep it up.

I WAS very excited to attend your presentation and as per my expectations. Your presentation was more fruitful to me. First I appreciate the way you presented and I am inspired by that I wish to be a successful presenter. And as per the content of presentation it was a lesson to be learned by all and know to fight for own might. It was the current condition of Nepalese society and it should be eradicated as soon as possible.

I am very thankful for the presentation and I am glad to attend it. I wish to attend your presentation in future also.

THANK YOU for your presentation. I am now more aware of Nepal’s constitution and from the statistics you have shown. Yes, I agree that education is freedom and the key to come forward in life especially for women and marginalized people.

You are doing a great job through your “COMMITTED” organization. It will surely help backward people. You are another example for all as an ideal person. God bless you.

Your presentation was great!

Through your voice was low, you could always become better. What I hope is if you could come again and help our teachers in science teaching to make more interesting. THANK YOU!

YOUR PRESENTATION was imagination; I just love the topic you choose on “Human Right Education Of Marginalized Nepalese. This is the major social evil that is facing by most of the under developed and developing countries. And for that we need people like you to inspire and digging out the negative side of marginalized community. Moreover, about your personal history it was sp inspirational. I am sure that many students have been affected by your self-determination and the power of positive thinking. Thank you so much for that wonderful presentation.

First of all, I would like to express my heartfelt thank you for being here at SMD School and you mean a lot to us. From your presentation I got lots of information and especially about situation of our country and the world. I got fact about the many countries. As we all know that most of the Nepalese are abroad for money. But why many educated Nepalese settle in abroad even they have good life and good facilities in Nepal. So you are the main hero who look behind Nepal. All I want to include is that you are very kind to give that information. Thank you so much.
