TRAVEL NEPAL: Fighting with poverty 2010 (Nepal)

TRAVEL NEPAL: Fighting with poverty 2010 (Nepal)

A CONCEPT TO DEAL WITH POVERTY

Fighting with poverty 2010 (Nepal)

Developing country like ours always facing the problem of poverty and its always hard to eradicated the poverty from the zero level normally social,culture and geographic are the main obstacle in many areas which play a vital role to affect the people to face the poverty. And government rules regulation polices are also play important role to makes people life's good.!!!

I am among the one who faces the poverty in my childhood times.And i know what its real be in poverty gradually after 10 years i feel like i can now save people from the poverty. When i was child i always thinks for why some people are getting so rich and some people are so poor why the differences always there it strike me every time and always hope that one day i will among to this rich level status but when i understand the reality i feel better because some times i feel if i live with fulfilling my basic needs then i should think for that people who are always face the problem of the basic needs so i developed the concept how we can eradicated the poverty from our community from our society from our village and from our city and from everywhere.


Poverty




HERE IS THE PROCESS WITH EXAMPLES



Lets take a example of one community suppose there is a 10 houses with 20 people (male, female) and they are facing the stream poverty now my theory revels that basic needs helps basic needs of people but how...???

Here all we do is to provide each house one basic commodities for example salt,oil.......etc. and then make a small market for them where there they can sell and buy a goods so that each houses make a transaction with each other so that they are able to fulfilling there needs by buying and selling of the commodities and also they can make a profit from it suppose the profit is Rs 10 then we save the money or reinvestment to developed the community. So that every one feel responsibilities towards the community it is the major advantage of my concept to make people responsible is the major way to developed.

It also help to decrease a gap between rich and poor because they are enjoying there duties besides this my concept main objectives is that it makes a individual house into the entrepreneur house.

MAJOR BENEFIT BY THIS CONCEPT

A COMMUNITY SOCIAL HARMONY CAN EASILY DEVELOPED
THE GAP BETWEEN THE HAVES AND HAVES NOT ARE DECREASE
PEOPLE FEEL RESPONSIBLE TOWARDS THE COMMUNITY.
NO MORE DISCRIMINATION ON CASTE OR IN GENDER EQUALITY
SELF DEVELOPING CONCEPT.
WELL DEVELOPED COMMUNITY.


These are the major benefit but in first generation its hard to understand and implemented but when in second generation we can success because people are highly benefited by this concept. Besides these the main motto of the concept is to make a individual as a manpower for this nation and other major objectives is fulling the basic needs of every individual so that they think for the new things to do in community. Its makes every individual employee in community so that they are in that point where they are able to use of local resources of their locality where a educated people like help recognized the potential of that community.

Lets see in steps

first providing their basic needs: generally the main motto is to providing the basic needs where we divide the each society people into the community and give oppurnites to sell the product earning and profit are re- invest in community again development of community means development of the society and development of society is development of the nation. The first motto is providing the basic needs.

utilization of local resources: After fulling the basic needs one have to do is recognized the local resources potential to make benefit to the community or to the society so that when they are free they can invest their time in productive work. For e.g farming, bee keeping,animals farming and many more generally create a 8 hours of working time.

Re-investment: The profit of each transaction are not a individual property until or unless they are not free from the poverty all we do is that of re-investment in health, education and training program.

Some assumption of its are

The price of the commodities is to be same.
All discrimination are strictly prohibited with help of law.
The people motto is out of poverty.


Beside this some of major challenge are lies there which is very hard to cope generally by the help of GOVERNMENT,INGO and NGO are the best way to implemented this in remote area.





This is only in general.

Knowledge about Trekking Maps

Maps are the graphic representation of the surface of the earth or a part if it showing its geographical features they  are considered very important tools in the filed of travel and tourism in this regards different map are prepared for different purpose with regional scale.

In the field of tourism geography one should have sound knowledge in tourism maps that contain physical features of that areas with contours (imaginary lines only in trekking maps)  to show relief conditions and existing land users. They are roads,funds,greenery, settlements religious side,communication network etc.


Trekking maps basic info

1 inch = 1 km...
After every rainy season  trekking maps should be up to date.............due to the flood,soil erosion... the trekking way is damage and lost so the old maps may create problems if it don"t get updated

Basic Notes from Class

1° = 4 minutes,          

West always should be added with greenwich time.
Where as east we have to minus with greenwich time.

Caption; Earth's polar grid of  latitude parallels and longitude meridians is based on Earth's equator and poles.  Find the Takoma Park/Silver Spring campus of Montgomery College on the globe at 38 degrees 58 arc minutes =38.96666666667 degrees North Latitude and 77 degrees=5 arc hours and 8 arc minutes West Longitude! There are 60 arc minutes in a degree so 38 degrees 58 arc minutes is almost 39 degrees.   The historically important Gaithersburg transit telescope observatory just north of Gaithersburg High School is at 39 degrees and 2 arc minutes North Latitude.  77 degrees West Lontitude is the same as 5 hours and 8 minutes in rotation time.  360 degrees on longitude is equal to 24 hours of time in rotation.  Can you see how this is true?  15 degrees/hour, 1 degree/4 minutes.

Latitude, Longitude and Wrold time Calculation (Note)

These terminology are very important to be familiar in the term of tourism geography.In this regard one should have the knowledge about rotation and revolution of the earth. Rotation denotes west to east movement of the earth on its axis at 25° resulting the sunrise in the east and set in the west. It always completes it rotation in 24 hours causing the variation of length of the day and night at different part on the earth surface this movement is always causes timing fast (a head) in the east and let in the west  depending upon the cross selection of latitude and longitude of an area.

In case of revolution the earth takes circle around the sum with the different climatic condition with the different part of the world.

Latitude are define as a angular distance north and south of equator at the center of the earth. The equator has 0° angel where as north and south poles of 90° angel each making a total of 180°. It is always majored in degree minutes and second. Similarly longitude are the measurement  of distance on the surface of the earth east and west of greenwich meridian. They are the lines drawn from north pole to south pole on a world map.

It is a imaginary line from pole to pole through 0° greenwich in london. IT is meauserd in a dtgree of an angle taken from the centre of the earth. The centre is used to fc standred time and all countries hace their respective locla timimig. Always international standred time  ahol local time are used as a basis to know the time differnce of any two seprate areas within or outside countrie in this regard countries in this regard country's east of greenwich have always there time a head or fast depending upon the degree if its location. Time west of it is slow for 1° by 4 minute the location of places always guided by its grid references encompassing its latitude and longitude grid are the pattern of straight lines crossing each other to square that give the total courage of the area.




                                    

Relation between Geography and Tourism (Note)

Geography concern with the studies of Spartacus expression and tourism deals with human activities they both focus the area that generate and receives for both fields covers from global to local distention depending upon suitable climatic zone affordability and liking places in tourism geography leisure, recreation and affordability have their interdependent roles.

As leisure is always concerned as a major of times followed by work and rest also it is a free time to spend as for liking. In this respect tourism always get involves in the recreation of short stay away from home.
