Dear esteemed readers of our blog
Today, BBC world service is going to telecast a mind blowing documentary about Nepalese forestry. The time for telecast of the show is 21:30 (Berlin time).
Please watch it and provide comments to the show. Probably it is the documentary about leasehold forestry!
The BBC says in its website:
