Chandra Prasad Dhakal, President of the Federation of Nepalese Chambers of Commerce and Industry, has said that despite contributing 81 percent to the gross domestic product and 86 percent to employment creation, the outlook towards the private sector remains negative.
He said that it is necessary to change this perspective and has submitted a policy to the Prime Minister to protect and promote the private sector.
‘The first target in every movement is the private sector. The main agenda of the Genji movement was good governance, corruption-free society, etc.,’ he said while speaking at the final session of the first day of the Kantipur Conclave, ‘Revival of the Economy, Restoration of Trust’. ‘Despite this objective being good, due to wrong infiltration, private industries and establishments, as well as individual houses, were vandalized and set on fire.’ Dhakal said that this has led to a loss of confidence not only in the private sector but also in the common people.
He recalled that such incidents had occurred in previous movements. Dhakal said that although the demand for employment, good governance and a corruption-free society was the demand of the common people, arson and vandalism took place in the industrial establishments that create employment. ‘We talk about good governance. "There has been a fire in the Sihandarbar, a fire in the judiciary, and while envisioning a corruption-free society, the authorities themselves have been set on fire," he said. "Incidents that are different from the purpose of the Genji movement have occurred. It has had a negative impact on the self-confidence of the private sector and commercial activities." He said that some of the damaged private sector industries have already resumed operations. "Government industries are still in a state of lockdown. Even though it will take time for the suffering in the private sector to subside, we have not given up," he said. "There are no other places with the same opportunities and possibilities in Nepal."
