KATHMANDU, Nov. 29 (Xinhuanet) -- Unlimited NuMedia Private Limited and Microsoft Corporation jointly launched Nepali version of Microsoft Windows XP and Microsoft Office 2003 here on Tuesday.
"Preservation of culture, tradition and language through the use of new technology will be more easier and effective," vice chancellor of Royal Nepal Academy Basudev Tripathi said.
He said that Nepali version of Windows will be a window to the world for Nepalese people.
Inaugurating the new version, the chancellor said that it will now be possible to bring the advantages of information technology to the rural masses, where the biggest challenge so far has been the language barriers, as less than 10 percent of the Nepali people are well versed in English.
