I was looking at this cartoon in Kantipur



It didn't look right so I put the chart right side up



Same difference.

Faux pas not by Rajesh KC but I think we was trying to prove naivity of nepalese.

We all know Financial crisis is increasing. So definitely when you turn into to right way you will see it increasing. So what you are trying to prove by turning it the right way  and showing financial crisis is increasing.

Infact, from the original graph you sill see financial crises moving towards zero from right to left. So it is easier to decieve that actually financial crisis decreasing.


Make sense? Probaby he was trying to prove how innocent and naive nepelase are. Which is infact true. He was also trying to prove that probably the people in the Finance office doesnot really know what that graph really means.

no_quiero, neo's still right!

the top of the x-axis is labeled zero. but wht's the y-axis? must be the time(eg: month, yr etc). even if you start from zero, your crisis is always increasing with the time. so it still doesn't make sense. financial crisis is the heading, in case you wanted to point out that it's the y-axis.

Well katilyn,

We 2 things.......

1.  X and Y Axis in both the figures are same . no matter how Baburam bhattarai
tried to change it.

2. Who knows number of years may be represented in X axis and  the Debt/ crisis (in Y axis).  In that case the crisis is actually converging to Zero. which is an improvement.


But then we are ignoring all the numbers and letters (financial crisis ) getting upside down.

chyantu ji! kasto funny hazur ta. bhannu samma bhanera....no comments re!

anyways, ne0 shared something odd and it bothered me too. The audience to whom the joke is targeted are the educated ones with at least some knowledge in politics as well as financial crisis. and i'd like to laugh but make me laugh without having to think "something's def. wrong!"

when you watch a movie n there's same gender ppl getting married in nepal and everyone's happy and totally accepting. wouldn't you say, "wait, there's something wrong with that picture?" Afterall, it's a movie for god's sake! why do we care if it's relevant or not?
