“This initiative incorporates an innovative lending model that ensures the recovery of interest and principal loan amounts by collecting these amounts directly from the end consumers. I think the potential challenge for expansion would be identifying and scaling the number of buyers and companies.”

Hello,
All
The recent data indicated that ASIA is suffering from poverty . All of us thinks that there should be give priority for the rural developments for the motto. But Dear all, My experience inspiring to me tell about the poverty of urban (hidden poverty) I think, there should have most prioritiable issue on hidden poverty or urban poverty . Because, the distention fo the villagers is the city for better job and earnings. But the urban poverty,… these people may abuse economically, emotionally, labouredly, trafficking drugs, sex etc, for them in town. In my native town dance bar , night restaurants and sex workers are been increasing . Small but painful robbery, looting and thieves are getting activities.
Kidnappings and killings are been increasing day by day . WHY? Think upon this subject “URBAN POVERTY”
So, dear all, Stand for the poverty in ASIA Nepal.
Regards,
