Hello All

I like to share what we have found from Kathmandu Metropolitan budget  in
City Spending Data Party,
http://np.okfn.org/2013/07/24/kathmandu-metropolitan-in-city-spending-data-party/

The great thing is Kathmandu Metropolitian has featured this program in
their television show called "Hamro Kathmandu" in Nepal's largest and
national television "Nepal Television" and also they have invited us for
further discussion and suggestion for coming days, they really appreciate
our intention and efforts.

Most of participants of program has preparing for their blog so i will post
here more information while i get it.

Thanks
