  • Where do we stand?

    Trying to make sense of Ruben Amorim’s time in charge is exhausting. One week, he looks out of his depth. The next, he’s making bold decisions that could shape the club’s future.

They are forced to spend more time navigating paperwork than focusing on delivering results. Bound by the system, he must follow the law, and we are left with delays and underperformance.

  • Food for thought

    In Nepal, the meal of dal bhat — rice with lentil soup — has long been considered a complete and nourishing food. It’s simple, satisfying, and deeply rooted in our culture.
