Mahendra Chaulagain arrived in Qatar in 1996 with a straightforward goal: to support his struggling family in Jhapa. Qatar was not supposed to become his home, and he did not leave Nepal with a grand business plan.
His elder brother was already in the Gulf country, and Mahendra followed him there as an ordinary worker. Over time, he moved from earning a living in Qatar to building a business of his own.
