We are ready to hold talks with India: Government (Nepal issues new political map)


Suggestion from a leader with knowledge of foreign affairs to hold bilateral talks with mature diplomatic skills. If the talks with India had started as per the request, it would have reached another stage now.


Kathmandu: Foreign Minister Pradip Kumar Gyawali has said that Nepal is ready to hold diplomatic dialogue with India on land encroachment and border issues. He also said that he was directly and indirectly urging India for bilateral dialogue. In the context of the border dispute, even the leaders of the main political parties and former foreign ministers have said that the only way to end the confrontation between Nepal and India is to hold bilateral talks using mature diplomatic skills. He said that the land could not be returned if only the map was released.
Reacting to the new political-administrative map of Nepal being made public by India calling it 'invalid' on Thursday, Foreign Minister Gyawali said that the new map was published after gathering. If the talks with India had started as requested, we would have reached another stage now." A date has also been proposed for the talks. Minister Gyawali said that India had replied that it would hold talks after the end of the Corona crisis in the last phase of the border dispute, adding, "But we are in favor of holding talks immediately." There is no other way to solve this problem than dialogue. '

Former Foreign Minister and Congress Joint General Minister Prakash Sharan Mahat stressed on the need to talk at the table with India by presenting facts and evidence through diplomatic channels.
Since we have to resolve through diplomacy, we have to be soft, polite in language and put things in the right place.
Just tell the people on the street, nothing should happen.  India has previously acknowledged that the Kalapani area is disputed. Accordingly, in the past, even when all border disputes were resolved elsewhere, the issue of sluggishness and black water was raised. RPP Chairman Prakash Chandra Lohani, who is also a former foreign minister, is of the opinion that India should be presented to explain and remind this. Nepal should try to establish the same thing now, 'he said. After India issued the map, Nepal protested and inaugurated a road in the same area.

Nepal sent a proposal to India for talks but no reply was received.
India ignored Nepal's objection to the road, which has been under construction for nearly 12 years, and the signing of an India-China trade agreement in 2015. One incident after another took place and Nepal only protested against it. Now, Nepal has made its concrete 'position' that this is its territory. All the parties represented in the parliament have agreed that this is the territory of Nepal. This has given the government the moral strength to speak strongly with India. Chairman of the Samajwadi Party, Upendra Yadav, who is also the former foreign minister, has suggested that the release of the map in such a favorable situation should not be used only as a weapon to shout slogans of extremism.

It would be great if you could return that territory, "he said." It should not be just a slogan of extremism.
The dispute over Limpiyadhura, Kalapani and Lipulek is directly between India and Nepal. It has been agreed to develop the trilateral point in this area and as a trade gateway between India and China. The Indian side understands that China has a 'backup' in issuing the new map to Nepal. Therefore, a mature dialogue with India and then China may be needed in the dispute over the Lipulek region. "We need to talk more with India first and create an environment for dialogue with China in the second phase," said Ram Karki, who is also the deputy chief It is important to keep the allies at the negotiating table. Only this can clear up the misunderstanding.  Karki stressed on the need for Nepal to focus on creating an atmosphere of dialogue without being provoked by the current situation.
He said that it would be appropriate to create an environment where people can talk from virtual meetings even if there is no direct talks. When it comes to talks, the Nepali side has been weak in the past. Nepal's biggest weakness in negotiations is the lack of institutional 'memory'. Therefore, the leaders say that preparations should be made in a mature manner while attending the talks. Allies have to worry about no data," Karki said.

MasterCard allows employees to work from home

MasterCard has told employees at its corporate offices around the world not to return to work until the corona outbreak has subsided or they have been vaccinated.

A senior executive of the organization told Reuters on Wednesday. MasterCard chief executive Michael Fracaro has said he will strengthen his offices. ‘We expect more employees to continue working from home rather than coming to the office in the coming weeks and months,’ he said, ‘and we’re comfortable with that.
According to Fracaro, employees who come to the office will have to strictly follow the rules of social distance, wear masks and check their temperature. The company has 20,000 employees in its offices around the world. Even after the situation returns to normal, Fracaro said, only 30 percent of employees around the world will be present.
Competitors from MasterCard, including American Express and Visa, have said they have no immediate plans to hire staff. Fracaro said MasterCard has created a task force that understands how to manage the needs of its offices and staff in the future. Mastercard networks have different relationship maps depending on the type of card and the deals in place. Regardless, MasterCard charges for the use of each Master Card. Generally, the network processors are the five companies involved in the transaction, the cardholder, the merchant, the receiving bank, the issuer and the master card. Fees may vary depending on the card and merchant agreement.


As a network processing service provider, MasterCard is responsible for processing the transaction.
MasterCard may charge the issuer a switching fee when issuing a MasterCard, but in general, most fees involved in the transaction process are called interchange fees and are negotiated To accept MasterCard electronic payments, a merchant must have an own (earned) bank capable of receiving electronic payments on the MasterCard network. The merchant is called a merchant discount for every transaction. For MasterCard, most of the company's revenues come from issuers. GDV fees are one percent of total GDV. MasterCard is required to pay a fee based on the Co-branded Card Agreement. Each co-branded card has different terms for the contract fee, but in general, the GDV fee is the basic standard.


The original Yoda actor, Frank Oz, or Baby Yoda

Frank Ozan is the master puppet behind the iconic Star Wars character Yoda.
He has been voiced by The Empire Strikes Back, as well as working for all the films he has called. Ode is also responsible for the unique syntax of the known Jedi master. Obviously, the world wants to know what the Oz Mandalorians and the adorable Baby Yoda, The Child, think. As it turned out, Frank Oz never saw the Mondrian.

In a recent interview, 75-year-old Oz made it very clear that he really didn't want to talk about Star Wars. Fans of hardcore Star Wars can be great at times, but what do they really think about Baby Yoda?

RELATED: Will Timothy Olegan Wear Boba Fate Armor in Mandalorian Season 2?
While Frank Oz may not be mistaken in the fact that Disney has big plans for Baby Yoda, he should be commended by the studio for not coming up with an aggressive marketing campaign full of merchandise right off the bat. Instead, they allowed Dave Filoni and John Favre to do their thing and keep it secret, choosing to make the goods after the Baby Yoda revelations. Oz made his remarks regarding Star Wars and Baby Yoda. It only hurts me if people think I can do yoga.

Star Wars is a global phenomenon, so it's hard to get out of under the shadow of Frank Oz Yoda.
In addition to his work in the galaxy Far, Far, Far, Oz has also worked as the Muppets and as a successful director. Little Shop of Horrors, and Boffinger, a selection of man-made work over the years. Oz had no problem celebrating Jim Henson and his work, because he was able to make his debut, but after Yoda was overshadowed, all of his accomplishments had to Frank Oz is also not a big fan of Disney and has no problem saying so. Without Jim's sense, there's no reason to go," Oz said when talking about Disney-controlled The Muppets. For The Dark Crystal Netflix series, Oz liked it more than he thought it would. I gave it a lot of thought behind it and they opened it up.

Disney Plus Hotstar Ready To Grow In India (Report)

According to a new report, Disney Plus Hotstar will be the second highest grossing video platform in India by 2025.
The study, published by Consultancy Media Partners Asia, predicts Disney Plus Hotstar revenue to grow to 2 902 million by 2025. This is despite an estimated 5 175 million in 2020.


Hotstar - founded under 20th Century Fox before being acquired by Disney - operates a mixed business model that includes free ranges for the mass market and premium levels available. The platform was re-launched as Disney Plus Hotstar in late March, and the model remains intact. Media Partners Asia suggests that Disney Plus membership should be maintained for the majority of Hotstar revenue, and that the recent relay will help strengthen the membership offer even in the absence of IPL cricket, which was a regular year.
Media Partners Asia says that Disney has made "meaningful" contributions to the expanded platform by contributing to new local sources and a vast library of local and international content. Media Partners Asia estimates subscriber revenue of $ 104 million and advertising revenue of $ 74 million by 2020.
By 2025, its base case scenario is looking for $ 587 million in subscriptions and 4 314 million in advertising.
What's important in hitting those goals is: all major cricket events resume, even in short form this year; The team has cricket rights until 2025; Disney Plus becomes a super-aggregator with Hotstar Global and Local Entertainment; And it reduces telco-linked distribution. The average income per customer in India is below the global standards. But it's not just Disney Plus Hotstar that offers the lowest prices in India. By 2020, Media Partners Asia estimates that Disney Plus Hotstar will have 18 million paid subscribers, making it the market leader with Amazon Prime Video at 17 million.

Netflix expects to finish the year with 5 million subscribers in India.

Stars of Justice League Dark: Apocalypse War Breaks Their Animated 'Endgame'

In 15 films starring DC, Batman, Superman and Wonder Woman, it has crushed its competition in the direct-to-video animation world.
Direct-to-video releases may not have as dramatic excitement as the Summer Tent release, and fans' enthusiasm for them is just as passionate. Take a look at the comic book production from Warner Bros. Animation, long known for its sleek production values, great story and emotional depth. All of those elements peaked in Justice League Dark: Apocalypse War, which WB refers to as its "DC Animated Movie Universe".
"It's huge, it's our endgame," Jerry O'Connell, who voiced Superman from the 2015 Justice League: Thrice of Atlantis, told SYFY WIRE in a recent interview.


The following are the main plot spoilers for Justice League Dark: Apocalypse War!
Written by Ernie Altbacker (Batman: Hush) and directed by Matt Peters (Superman: Red Sun) and Christina Sota (Young Justice), the film serves as a continuation of the 2017 Justice League Dark. However, it’s not just about the superhero team taking on more supernatural threats of the DC Universe. As O'Connell puts it, War of the Apocalypse brings all of our favorite DC heroes - and villains - to the final confrontation with the dreaded Dark Seed.
"It's thrilling and tragic ... it's not just the end of these sequel films, it's also the end of an era," Jason O'Mara, who has voiced Batman 11 times in the last six years, told us in a break-in interview.
Matt Ryan, another member of the Apocalypse War, has the rare opportunity to play John Constantine in both live action and animation.
When it comes to his personal happiness, it is easy to relate to the character in cartoon form. When I look at them, I can disconnect myself in a way that I can't do in live-action," he explained to the SYFY chord.
To wrap it all up and get all the characters to their end, I thought they did a very good job with it, and Constantine was great at writing." Constantine actually cuts to the story of the woman he loves, Jatanna (Camilla Ludington), when she goes out into the open. He agrees to help the league in an ambitious attack on Darkseid, which the universe wants to capture, but things go from there. The New God who kills some of them, kills some of them, and enslaves the rest. To add insult to injury, he conquers the earth and uses the molten core for his own wicked end. He's not just a bad guy with a silly voice. I can't believe I'm saying this, but you have to get some sympathy for every character."


It comes from Superman who is so generous that he is forcibly made of "S" Liquid Kryptonite, neutralizing his God-like powers.
It's a terrible concept and he's cool for Man of Steel, a super-suit designed by him, Lex Luthor (Rene Wilson), and two, by Trigon (John DeMaggio). Listen, if you are asking ME, i feel some live-action versions can in all probability want some animated versions of Warner Bros. As way as i am involved." Most inventive components tell the story of a superhero originated from DC Animation.  O’Connell acknowledged that his Superman performance created him a far better actor. He additionally thanked him for taking part in such a spectral character: "He's an excellent hero. He is a loyal worker, he is a loyal son, he is AN orphan, he is a foul lover." The actor received a sincere response, checking comments on social media platforms and making an attempt his best to "personalize" the character. It is not really easy once "everyone has their own ideas" concerning WHO Superman is.
"There's a meaning you have got to play", scrutiny this explicit voiceover job to it of a Ferrari.

Animation Team gave ME one thing new and nice to play with Superman and Clark.
Two years when losing to the Dark Seed, Superman and Raven (Taisa Formiga), Constantine lives in an exceedingly boozy fog with Etrigan (Ray Chase). John was embarrassed by Clark and Zatanna was done in with guilt that he ran removed from the fight once he required it most. A magical investigator with a thick Irish brogan and a habit of refusing at the start once asked to assist within the new resistance movement against Darkseid. It's a lot of concerning taking part in for the instant. I same it's less concerning the direction of the scriptwriting, and therefore the tone of the voice. They need that guide within the booth as a result of you recognize what is going on on with them or what is going on on with the story."
He really is that the heart and soul of the story, and with six years of expertise taking part in Ryan, he contains a powerful responsibility.
Comics and got concerned." "If you second-guess what character is, you do not need to bilk the fans. To try and do the most effective you'll be able to within the mag, stop doing what you are doing. Try and stand up early on behalf of me. When Justice League Dark arrived, i used to be with Constantine. Six years later, he was Already acted in an exceedingly method. 
Okay, the lone-wolf Vicenta suffers from the film's biggest inactivity: he is as brave as Darkseid's high contriver. Even underneath the villain's spell, the caped crusader will still command an area with nonsense stares and bright red eyes. The servant himself is incredibly powerful, however the Master is a lot of powerful. That's why." It's very a relationship there, "O'Mara unconcealed." Most of the film is tender not tender and in post-production, my voice is somewhat modified to search out out



"The real challenge as an actor is to find a different dynamic for the voice." 
It was doubly good to see what the filmmakers did with it once it was recorded. And in all the previous films, I have covered every challenge that Batman can have in one way or another. Story-wise, with accent, Rachan by TMK and Technical. " In the end, Bruce's son Damian, Robin (Stuart Allen), breaks Dark Seed's control over Batman.
After a number of discussions with O’Mara filmmakers about who Bruce was in that reunion, the father-son dynamic was definitely one of the emotional highlights. Bruce ends up telling the Dark Seed to go to hell. There's nothing to wear on him." "We decided that he would eventually become more Bruce than Batman because he needed full access to his feelings. Even though he was in that moment, he was the father's soul to his son and it was too much. The human moment was that Bruce and / or Batman could never find themselves. There is a lot of concern about whether the concept came right for us. " Before the credits roll, Constantine convinces Flash (Christopher Gorham) to reset the timeline with another flashpoint event. Barry Allen reluctantly admits in an act that returns the film to a reboot. This is a poetic, cyclical and poignant ending to the current animated continuation.


I'm doing it now, and Batman has no plans for me or any other plans for the series, so I think we're going out with a bang.
So I'm both sad and excited [for this film]," Omira repeated. This might be my last time playing Superman. It's a real honor." "I hope they bring me back. Maybe I should play Superman's father, Jor-El, or Jonathan Kent." Due to the fact that Constantine became a regular on Legends yesterday after his own show on NBC was canceled, Ryan finds out that nothing really is over. There's something about me that doesn't feel mediocre. Even for me, it's just for me, emotionally, because the story wraps everything up." And it's great that they sent him one, they sort it out, "Ryan said." I thought they did a great job of giving us what we want, man. John Constantine is happy to see the story having a happy ending.

The Tokyo Olympics has closed five souvenir shops; Shorten - 2020




TOKYO - Five official Olympic trading shops in Tokyo will close in early June and trade will be interrupted due to the coronavirus pandemic and the game is postponed until next year, organizers said on Tuesday.

It is not clear whether they will reopen.

Tokyo spokeswoman Masa Takaya told an online news conference that the sixth store in Osaka will also be bad in early June. Tokyo operators said there were 89 stores operating around Japan at the end of April.

No more closures can be ruled out between next year’s game and how-to questions - or if they will be handled.

"We don't know what's going to happen in the next three weeks," Takaya said. "So I can't verify how many boutiques remain after these shops are closed."

The merchants budgeted about $ 100 million in sales. This is a small portion of the $ 5.6 billion privately financed operating budget. As part of the Games, $ 3.3 billion is being paid from local sponsors.

In total, Japan claims to spend $ 12.6 billion to host the Olympics, but a national audit says the figure is doubling. All this is public money, except for the $ 5.6 billion operating budget.

The Tokyo Olympics will begin on 23 July 2021 - a year late due to the epidemic. Paralympics 2021 is set to begin on August 24.

PPP Funds: 70% of U.S. Olympic Games applications are reported by AP

About 5,500 products are sold in "licensed" stores, which also carry hats, t-shirts and "official" chopsticks - Tokyo and Olympic logos.

Taya was asked how many products were made in Japan. Many products, including Stuffed Animal Muskets - some for the Olympics, the other for the Meritova and the Paralympics - have labels as specified in China or Vietnam. Many other products also have a "Made in Japan" label.

"Tokyo is not a total figure for how many products will be made in Japan or outside Japan in 2020," Takaya said. "In that regard, we cannot provide such (a) number."

He said the Tokyo Organizing Committee has agreements with suppliers that are largely independent of source products wherever they wish.
