"due amounts"

26 August 2025

Nepali sugarcane farmers from various districts protest in Kathmandu, Nepal, on August 26, 2025, demanding the government scrap the decision to halve the subsidy and make payments for due amounts at the earliest. Cane farmers warn of blocking highways and continuing protests in Kathmandu if their demands are not met by August 30. On July 7, the Cabinet halves the subsidy to Rs35 per quintal, citing growing pressure on the treasury. The decision comes amid farmers' complaints that production costs have surged sharply. Although the agriculture ministry requests the continuation of the full subsidy, the finance ministry and the Prime Minister's Office reject the proposal. Last November, the government sets the minimum support price for sugarcane at Rs585 per quintal, only Rs20 more than in the previous year. Farmers say they sell their harvests hoping that the promised subsidy will come their way.

A sale banner hangs at the factory that closes down due to the economic downturn in Sangju, South Korea, on June 25, 2025. The Korean government's plan to eliminate long-overdue personal debts of up to 50 million won ($36,672) sparks growing controversy over fairness in the policy's application. Because the cap applies per loan rather than per borrower, individuals with multiple qualifying debts could see amounts exceeding 50 million won fully forgiven.
