Power : Energy

How can you say, who is powerful? What are the criteria? And what shall it be? Is it money that makes a person, a society or a country powerful? Is it the military force that makes a country powerful?  Or Is it our fear that makes that particular organization powerful? Why America is always the powerful country? Why is UN so powerful? Why are Reserve Banks so powerful? Is it space invading technology that makes NASA so powerful? Why is government so powerful that they take control over us(public)?

No money, no military force and no constitutional power makes that something very powerful. Our journey of power dates back from the strength on fist of the caveman to the oil mines of Iraq and nuclear energy of Russia. ENERGY, ENERGY and ENERGY is the only thing that makes these things so very powerful. Someone who controls the energy controls its periphery. Government control energy of the country, that’s why it is powerful. USA controls most of the oil mines and nuclear plants, that’s why it’s powerful. China is increasing their energy resource, that’s why it’s growing to be a powerful nation. Anyone, who controls energy, controls food, money and water, the most important aspects of human life. Why are we (Nepal) going back? Cause we are low on energy.

If we need to develop ourselves and this country, let’s think about energy first. Let it alone be hydro power or may be with any other sources. But unless we increase our energy capacity, we are never gonna be developed. Bigger countries will always try to suppress our growth. Recent example is PDA signed with India (Especially Upper Karnali). No country can see another one growing more powerful and to control this, they tend to control our energy.

The reports of highly qualified professors were suppressed. Many important discussions on energy were neglected. Why? Higher energy resource was trying to supress lower energy resource. We need to make a change as a student of energy, as a citizen of country not to let any other thing take control over our energy. After-all ENERGY is one thing, that makes us powerful. Not nuclear weapons, nor big banks and neither international organisations, ENERGY , ENERGY and ENERGY is the only key.
