Maldives and Nepal show the way
Two members of Saarc have set world record by arranging their respective country's ministerial summit under deep sea and at the top of Mount Everest respectively. They have done it as an awareness campaign on global warming. To arrange this unique and unparallel programme under the sea and at the top of Mount Everest they took long preparation to brave nature's wrath during the summit attended by their ministers who are obviously aged persons.
My hats off to them who attended their respective summit under deep sea and top of Everest risking their lives. By organising this unique and unparallel summit both the Maldives and Nepal could become the hub of international attention on the issue of global warming. They have arranged the summits at the right time and at the right places.
Other world bodies who arrange summit on climate changes in cozy hotel conference rooms at different times in different countries may learn from the recent ministerial summits organised by the Maldives and Nepal.
