Introduction

At the start of yet another year, we extends the warmest of wishes to its clients, national and international agents and associates for their support during 2011. Had it not been for their continuous assistance, we would not have been able to say that 2009 was a fruitful one. We also take this opportunity to welcome new agents and clients to our growing list so that all of us can benefit by tapping the various tourism potential of the country. At the threshold of 2012, the Borderlands Group is hopeful that a lot of national and international clients will visit Nepal and take part in the multi-adventure activities that Borderlands has to offer. To ensure that a maximum number of clients come to Nepal, the Group appeals to the political parties, associations and the concerned stakeholders to put an end to all forms of protests and violence and to join hands to make Nepal Tourism Year 2011 a grand success. The Borderlands Group wishes everyone a very happy, peaceful and prosperous New Year 2012! Constructive criticism and suggestions from our valued readers, clients & friends are always welcome!
