The Forbidden Kingdom

During our stay in Lo Manthang, an audience with the King was arranged, and it was on this occasion that I put to him my idea of an exhibition to benefit Mustang and raise £10,000 for the region, to improve health care in keeping with local traditions.

The project is to raise £10,000 for the Kingdom of Lo [now Mustang] and the funds will be distributed by DROKPA whose “efforts begin with a recognition of the complex natural and human ecology of the areas in which we work, and a desire to help local communities sustain and transform themselves as they deem appropriate.”
