While Internet is considered a basic requirement in the Western world it is still a far off dream to the millions of people from 3rd world countries. Nepal is one of them. Blessed with one of the best topographies in the world, the high peaks make it difficult for ISPs to cover the far flung areas of Nepal. Poverty is another reason why Internet reach is low in the mountainous areas of Nepal.
However, one man made it a mission to bring Internet to the rural masses of Nepal and he was successful in providing 60,000 Nepalis living in villages.
Meet Mahabir Pun. Fed up with the fact that he had to hike for two days whenever he wanted to check his email, he decided to connect his home town of Nangi to the Internet.
