The contribution of women to the economy is not very reflected in the national statistics. Constructing a hotel in Nepal would help to create new jobs to the people who need it and help with the economy ofthe country.

Primarily they have agrarian economy, they grow their own grain, sugarcane and tobacco and everything is processed in local factories. They export goods which is their major income besides tourism. Foreign aid plays the major role in Nepal’s economic life, above all the infrastructuredevelopment projects.

Since Nepal needs the international support, the government has set in motion measures of financial prudence by cutting back on expensive subsidies. This is a great time and a great opportunity for Four Seasons to take, since it’s not a very expensive place to buy and construct, and has a lot of tourism of people that can afford this hotel and like the commodity of it....
