Building a 'bridge' to Nepal

Nepalese student wants to give back to Chinese society for the help he received in school

Hanuman the monkey god, one of the central characters in the ancient Hindu epic Ramayana, is considered a symbol of devotion. Like Hanuman, Ganesh Bahadur Damal was taught to be caring and giving as a young boy growing up in Nepal, where most people believe in Hinduism.

Now 27 and studying in the medical school at China Three Gorges University, in Yichang, Hubei province, Damal is putting into practice what he learned in the past.
