Now, we have seen commitments from international community as well as Nepali business community for rehabilitation and reconstruction program. The problem is that they do not trust the government as it is seen as too corrupt. On the other side, the government suspects that if allowed to work directly, a large sum will be spent on administration of the fund and people will get just a few pennies. Both, perhaps are right in their respective perspectives.
Now, it could be a better arrangement if a trustworthy high level mechanism is put in place. This mechanism may be called a commission or authority but should have final authority in all areas of rehabilitation and reconstruction program. The commission/authority could be established by amending interim constitution or by adopting a law from the parliament. It will get funds and utilize those funds from international community, Nepalese government and local contributors.
The commission/authority should have renowned welfare/development professionals, education as well as health professionals, social scientists, economists, engineers, management expert etc. This commission should have about 15 members. In my imagination, persons like Kul Chandra Gautam, Dr. Govinda K. C., Kedar Bhakta Mathema, Anuradha Koirala, Arun Kumar Singh (Swami Ananda Arun) etc could best suit for such commission/authority.
