> I find it kinda lopsided to read an article that only mentions the good things without giving a proper/full picture.
Did we read the same article? Here's some points the author made that seem to contradict your claim.
1st paragraph:
"boy oh boy, there have been major changes"
That implies change, ie: it was worse before.
2nd paragraph:
"There was obviously major corruption going on behind the scenes, which prevented this improvement from happening for so long. "
"In bigger cities like Kathmandu and Pokhara, the hotels have always been a bit hit-and-miss"
"Visa regulations in Nepal are a little stricter than in Thailand"
Having re-read the article, I'm glad the author took the time to present this.
> Some people might not really understand what it's like in a 3rd world country.
I'm not sure your description of an entire country as a "total dump" is accurate or helpful to people like me who genuinely want to understand what it's like in a 3rd world country.
Luckily, there is a broad range of independently captured data on Streetview, even of the Annapurna trail, Kathmandu so folks can evaluate conditions for themselves without bias.
