While you wait, here is the five-layer reading map: the machinery, the rules, the priorities, the products, the craft. Not an official syllabus, and I am not part of the selection. #GovTech #GovTechNepal #SDOC #Nepal #GovernmentJobs #ITJobs

"So why is a finance minister at this podium? On the morning of 26th August this year, a rock wall above the Bhotekoshi-Trishuli corridor in the high Himalayas in Nepal collapsed and cascaded into a debris flood. Every instrument Nepal had held that morning: the trigger on our credit line, the triggers on any insurance we could have bought, the gauges in our warning chain read rainfall and river level. It did not rain. Nepal is not a country without data. The gap I want to name is not between a country and its data, but between the data and the decision. Because observations are the collateral behind every financial instrument. No data, no trigger. No trigger, no parametric cover. No cover, no pre-arranged finance. Only the kind that arrives as debt. Costly debt. Nepal is already a lab for this class of hazard. The question is whether it will also be the scientist. A hotter world is flying blind, and the countries that can least afford it fly most blind. Fund the floor. Let us build on it together, so that the next finance minister at this podium has a trigger that reads the mountain, and not only the rain. Make Nepal's lessons of 2026 count, so that no country has to learn them again." @SwarnimWagle

Heartiest congratulations to Hon. Finance Minister Dr. Swarnim Waglé on being named to the TIME100 Climate 2026 list, among the world's 100 most influential climate leaders. 🇳🇵 TIME places him in the Leaders category, the people "putting ideas into action", alongside António Guterres, Ursula von der Leyen and the Prince of Wales. The recognition follows the August glacial floods: Nepal, in TIME's words "on the front lines of a climate crisis it did not create", took its case to the world's largest emitters and to the Loss and Damage Fund. On 22 October the fund provisionally approved $21.6 million for Nepal, the first payout in its history. A proud moment for Nepal and for mountain nations everywhere, and a personal one for me, working in his Secretariat at the Ministry of Finance. #TIME100Climate #ClimateJustice #LossAndDamage #Nepal #GovTechNepal

Happy Tihar! Five things the festival teaches. The crow, the messenger: may the right information reach everyone, on time. The dog, loyal and intelligent: may our intelligence be trustworthy and honest. Laxmi: may prosperity reach everyone. The lights: celebrate together. Bhai Tika: keep the bonds strong, offline and online. The same wish for a digital Nepal. Warm wishes to everyone celebrating, at home and far from home. #Tihar2083 #Deepawali #BhaiTika #Nepal #GovTechNepal

Scammed online? Nepal now has one number to call: 1247. The Integrated Anti-Cyber Scam Center (IACSC) under the Ministry of Home Affairs and Nepal Police is now operating from the new Cyber Bureau building in Samakhusi, Kathmandu. It runs 24/7 with Nepal Police, banks and financial institutions, payment providers, telecom operators and ISPs working together in one place, so a scam report can reach the bank and the network at the same time. If you are hit by a cyber scam or digital fraud, or even suspect one, call 1247 at once. The sooner the call, the better the chance of stopping the money. #GovTechNepal #CyberSecurity #1247 #NepalPolice #DigitalNepal

UN's Early Warnings for All initiative, led by WMO and UNDRR, aims to protect everyone on Earth with early warning systems by 2027. Gati helps Nepal's official warnings reach people, each with its source and time, and it aligns with SDGs 11, 13, 1, 9 and 16. Gati is not a partner of the initiative. It is an effort to carry official warnings the last mile. nirajbhusal.github.io/gati-a… #EarlyWarningsForAll #SDGs #Nepal #Gati @UN @UNDRR

Check road status before you travel. Gati now has "Know before you go" cards for 15 major highways. Each one shows segment status from Nepal Police and the Department of Roads, active official notices, DHM's 5-day outlook and NDRRMA safety steps. Every info comes from an official source and shows its source and time. In an emergency, call Police on 100 or Disaster on 1234. nirajbhusal.github.io/gati-a… #Nepal #RoadStatus #Gati

Applying for one of the 42 government IT posts? Four things to read before Kartik 18: who runs what, the policy stack, this year's priorities, the apps citizens use, and the engineering that fits government. Not an official syllabus, and I am not part of the selection. #GovTechNepal #SDOC #Nepal

A proud moment, sharing the frame with them. #NPL #Cricket #Nepal
