I have not read the book. But I have heard that some quarters in Kathmandu believe in the conspiracy theory that the corporations, and by that mostly Americans, are out to rob Nepal of its water resources. They believe water is next oil and America is out to get it, by hook or crook. I don't know the rationale behind this argument, as the person I was talking to could not come up with a good logic to support his claim. Perhaps this book explains the theory.

Can you please post the summary of the book?

Thanks.

Yes!

Later in this century, WATER is next OIL and developed countries including EUROPE, AMERICA will be out to get it either way.. This is why we can forsee a long term commitment by big companies to loan NEPAL on water resources.....

..sorry, have not got the book yet...Hopefully there are folks who already read this book..
If so, plz post your views.......

I read that book....it was boring...fell asleep at the water part....the book was really stretching with bullshit conspiracy theories...dont reccommend it at all..btw, water will not be the next oil as the book claims.... I have spent years as a senior H20 distribution engineer specialist for the federal government so I am knowledgeable in this field.
