I am a Nepalese citizen. I always love the mega structure of mighty Hoover Dam. Which I feel is the foundation stone of US Progress in every field. Our country is also full of water resources and should learn from the Hoover dam. Since no nation building personalities are existing in our political forum where such dream creation can be imagined. In this contest US government should help us in broad-way .
