2008 has been a year of superlatives - both good and bad - whether you’re straight or gay, South Asian or not. In the final issue of 2008, we bring you an interview with Trikone Magazine’s Person of the Year, Sunil Babu Pant, pioneer of the queer rights movement in Nepal and that country’s (and South Asia’s) first openly gay member of parliament.
