The Nepalese are currently burning the government!

If this is what the People think of Communism, then China should be very, very worried! (4 minute video on the situation in Nepal).

Nepal turmoil: NED and Soros stirring the pot? No shocker

Nepal’s Gen Z–driven chaos ousted the government on September 9, leaving 29 dead.

What lit the fuse?

A ban on social media, preceded by an online “nepo kids” campaign against nepotism and corruption.

At the forefront is Sudan Gurung, head of Hami Nepal, a nonprofit born after the 2015 quake. Notably, Hami Nepal lists backing from the US-based global beverage behemoth Coca-Cola and the New York-registered Students for a Free Tibet.

NED’s fingerprints

Students for a Free Tibet has been listed as a grantee of the US State Department-funded National Endowment for Democracy (NED) — the US’ go-to vehicle for regime-change ops and “color revolutions.”

In 2024 alone, NED splashed out $53.5M across 347 Asia projects, bragging that the 2024 Bangladesh coup showed “democratic resilience.”

Soros’ footprint

George Soros’ Open Society Foundations (OSF) have pumped millions into Nepal since 2007 — $2.2M in 2020 alone for “justice reform,” “journalism” and “democratic practice.”
In 2017, the Alliance for Social Dialogue (ASD) became the OSF's grant-making arm in Nepal. In 2023, the entity was rebranded as Purak Asia with a mission to "catalyze societal transformation through meaningful action" in Nepal.
Purak Asia’s website champions a "new generation in politics" and appeals to Gen Z with imagery of raised fists—an emblem also emblazoned across Hami Nepal’s homepage. This clenched fist has become a symbol associated with Soros-funded revolutions, visible all over Yugoslavia, Georgia, and the Arab Spring.
Meanwhile, the Soros-funded V-Dem Institute has ranked Nepal as an “electoral democracy” and above India in its 2025 report.

Echoes from Indonesia

Nepal’s chaos erupted after Indonesia’s “anti-corruption” protests.

Both waves use the One Piece skull-and-straw-hat icon as a rebellion symbol.

Both nations are key to China’s Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) and growing BRICS ties. Indonesia joined BRICS in January 2025; Nepal renewed its BRI status in late 2024.

International political commentators flagged NED and Soros behind Jakarta’s unrest. Coincidence? Hardly. Nepal looks like the sequel.

In relation to the “battle for the networks” in Nepal, I observe a crossover of information with the different events taking place in American society, which is the “battlefield” to be controlled using technological magic (Palantir Peter Thiel, Alex Karp) It is possible that we will soon begin to see pressure to accept certain technologies of control, surveillance, Minority Report, biometric control, etc., thereby reducing rights and freedoms... or what else needs to be done for us to accept them?

It is known that Victoria Nuland visited Nepal in January 2023 to ratify with Prime Minister Pushpa Kamal Dahal and opposition leaders the pact with the United States Indo-Pacific Strategy, through the Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC) compact, which is a type of ex-USAID.
Critics of this pact, including several political parties and civil society groups, have argued that the provisions of the agreements are a threat that undermine Nepal's sovereignty and constitutional integrity, especially given the geopolitical framework aimed at countering China and its Silk Road. Currently, the controversy surrounding the pact still reflects a broader struggle in Nepal to balance foreign aid, non-interference, and the preservation of its national sovereignty in pursuit of development without being forced to align itself in international relations, but still with a weak legal framework.
In line with US interests, China offered Nepal projects such as the current airport, the Trans-Himalayan Railway, and the Upper Trishuli-1 hydroelectric power plant, in addition to vaccines, but it has been a failure especially for China in terms of its commitment and execution of agreements for Nepal's debt relief.

On the other hand, investigations in the Asian region have uncovered an international supply of invasive tools used to monitor communications that originate from Chinese technologies that export or sell digital authoritarianism as a service:

In the early hours of 1 February 2021, Myanmar’s online world went dark. As a military junta seized power, they cut access to Twitter, Instagram and Facebook in a bid to quell protests, before shutting down the internet almost completely. Links to the outside world were largely gone, and with them, a way to share the horrors unfolding and call for help. Even VPNs were blocked, and checkpoints were set up where armed militia searched citizens’ phones for signs of tech which the junta believed could aid dissent.
(…)
“People have no idea of this constant surveillance, and its incredible reach,” said Agnès Callamard, Secretary General at Amnesty International. The human rights NGO analyzed the data mainly with regard to the deployment in Pakistan.
“This dystopian reality is extremely dangerous because it operates in the shadows, severely restricting freedom of expression and access to information.”

Geedge Networks, a Chinese company, has been quietly selling surveillance technology and censorship systems apparently inspired by the Great Firewall, partly based on Western and European technology, to governments around the world.

Geedge Networks, a company founded in 2018, counts the “father” of China's mass censorship infrastructure as one of its investors. It presents itself as a network monitoring provider offering enterprise-grade cybersecurity tools to “gain complete visibility and minimize security risks” for its customers, according to documents. In fact, researchers discovered that it has been operating a sophisticated system that allows users to control online information, block certain websites and VPN tools, and spy on specific individuals.

The researchers who reviewed the leaked material (...)-(from Geedge Networks' internal data). in a months-long investigation conducted by Follow the Money, German investigative news outlet Paper Trail Media, Austrian newspaper DER STANDARD, and Canadian newspaper The Globe and Mail, with assistance from Amnesty International, Justice for Myanmar—a group of activists investigating to dismantle the junta in Myanmar—the Tor Project, and InterSecLab) (...)- where it was discovered that the company is capable of packaging advanced surveillance capabilities into what amounts to a commercialized version of the Great Firewall, a wholesale solution with both hardware that can be installed in any telecommunications data center and software operated by local government officials. The documents also discuss desired features the company is working on, such as cyberattacks on demand and geosurveillance of specific users.
According to the leaked documents, Geedge has already begun operating in Kazakhstan, Ethiopia, Pakistan, and Myanmar, as well as another unidentified country. A job posting shows that Geedge is also seeking engineers who can travel to other countries to perform engineering work, including several countries not named in the leaked documents, WIRED has learned.

(…) “This is not like the legal interception carried out by all countries, including Western democracies,” says Marla Rivera, technical researcher at InterSecLab, a global digital forensics research institution. In addition to mass censorship, the system allows governments to target specific individuals based on their activities on websites, such as visiting a specific domain.
“The surveillance system sold by Geedge gives the government power that no one should have,” says Rivera.

(…)
The core of Geedge's offering is a gateway tool called Tiangou Secure Gateway (TSG), designed to be located within data centers and which could be scaled up to process the internet traffic of an entire country, according to the documents. According to the researchers, every packet of online traffic passes through it, where it can be scanned, filtered, or stopped. In addition to controlling all traffic, the documents show that the system also allows additional rules to be set for specific users it considers suspicious and to collect their network activities.
According to the leaked documents, in the case of unencrypted internet traffic, the system is capable of intercepting sensitive information such as website content, passwords, and email attachments. If the content is properly encrypted using the Transport Layer Security protocol, the system uses deep packet inspection and machine learning techniques to extract metadata from encrypted traffic and predict whether it is passing through a censorship circumvention tool such as a VPN. If it cannot distinguish the content of encrypted traffic, the system may also choose to flag it as suspicious and block it for a period of time.
Another key Geedge product is Cyber Narrator, the main user interface from which government customers without technical knowledge can access the data that Tiangou Secure Gateway monitors in real time with a bird's-eye view, according to the documents. In screenshots of the system found in the leak, Cyber Narrator operators can see the geographic location of each mobile internet user based on their cellular service communications, as well as analyze whether the user is accessing the internet through VPN services.

In the case of Myanmar, internal records reveal that Geedge identified 281 popular VPN tools, with their technical specifications, subscription prices, and whether they can be used in Myanmar. Another document identified 54 applications marked as high priority for blocking. The list of priority tools includes mostly popular commercial services such as ExpressVPN, as well as Signal, the encrypted messaging app.
Geedge's experience in Pakistan also shows that it is building products on interoperable equipment to attract different customers. Before Geedge arrived in Pakistan, the country had worked with Sandvine, a Canadian company that supplied deep packet inspection equipment before withdrawing due to US sanctions. When Sandvine left, its hardware remained in Pakistani data centers, according to the leak. According to the documents, Geedge moved in to repurpose the existing infrastructure, offering a transition to a new censorship regime, which would ultimately run on Chinese-made hardware.

After digging into several sites, in my opinion, this only leads me to think that Silk Road, like the former USAID (or whatever its proxy is now), is a euphemism for establishing and conquering digital control with the help of infrastructure offered in exchange for freedoms and digital identity impositions, the classic “carrot and stick” approach, and even more so now that it can be better appreciated because it is no longer just about territorial control, which it is also, but especially about pursuing measures of mass mind control of individuals. It is necessary to take measures to protect our judiciary, on the one hand, that these reports are being leaked is because they are making a statement for you to know that the degree of surveillance is going to be maximized; On the other hand, any type of “agent” could select, censor, or ‘eliminate’ any individual under some Orwellian protocol, especially digital surveillance agents (or the misnamed AI, which reminds me of the Ethereum prototype called “trusted agents”) that will emerge to monitor and “facilitate secure and verifiable interactions.”
We are at an opportune moment to continue learning and seeking informed alternatives and strategies to something that seems inevitable, since the majority is asking for security!
