The financial support is collected through The Dharan Hong Kong Manch, a forum of Nepalese Immigrants (most of the contributors from Dharan) to Hong Kong and Macao. The Amrit Nirman Sewa (Pvt.) Ltd., a local construction company, is building the Tower. The Tower is designed as the Clock Tower in Hon Kong. It will be 76.5 ft. high and at the height of 55 ft. a platform around the Tower will be made so that almost 50 people can view the city. At the north of the Tower a park will be made in memory of the earthquake victims who died in the 1988 earthquake that hit the city, reduced it to rubble and claimed almost 5000 city dwellers.
