List of G20 Sherpas

This is a list of the G20 Sherpas - or most of them and it will be up-dated as new information comes in. If you can fill in some of the missing information, then emailsherpa@sherpatimes.com . 
For those not familar with the term, a Sherpa is the President or Prime Minister's personal representative responsible for negotiating the outcome document at international events such as the G8 and G20. The Sherpa is usually a senior diplomat, civil servant or in some cases, politician. There are also Sous-Sherpas - usually a finance sous-sherpa and a foreign affairs sous-sherpa who report to the main Sherpa. There are also Yaks, but I am not sure what they are. 

Most G8 countries, except Canada, have only one Sherpa who deals with both the G8 and G20 negotiations. Canada has one Sherpa for the G20 (more senior) and one for the G8.

किमची कोरिया का मुख्य नहीं बल्कि सह- भोजन(साइड डिश) है ।

<पारम्परिक कोरियाई भोजन का आनंद लेते कुछ वरिष्ठ साथी> भोजन मानव संस्कृति का सबसे महत्वपूर्ण हिस्सा है। कोरियाई संस्कृति भी इस कथन का पूरक है।   कोरिया का खाना यहाँ की सांस्कृतिक पहचान का एक   ऐसा हिस्सा जो भारत और पश्चिमी निवासियों के आहार और प्रचार से काफी अलग है   । कोरिया के भोजन विशेषकर अनाज ( खासकर चावल ) , मांस , और कुछ सब्ज़ियों पर जोर देता है । हालांकि अमेरिका , पूंजीवाद , पश्चिम का प्रभाव और औद्योगीकरण जैसे तत्वों के मेल के साथ यहाँ के लोगों ने पिज्जा , हैमबर्गर और   बीयर को भी अपनाया है ।   इसके अलावा जापानी सुशी और चीन के कुछ भोजन तथा दक्षिण पूर्वी एशिया और भारत के व्यंजनों की लोकप्रियता भी प्रमुख है।     कोरियाई भोजन में साधारणतः चावल , सूप या स्टू , और कई साइड व्यंजन रहते है और लगभग सभी खानों में साइड व्यंजन के रूप में किमची या मसालेदार सब्जियां रहती है । राष्ट्रीय आहार में किमची का सबसे ज्यादा ...
