A social media post by Prime Minister Balen Shah featuring DDC cheese has brought the state-owned Dairy Development Corporation (DDC) into the national spotlight, shifting public attention from its financial struggles to its products. The post has generated optimism among DDC employees and dairy farmers, despite the corporation facing significant financial challenges, including delayed farmer payments and accumulated losses. The endorsement is seen as a rare example of political backing for a public institution and has revived discussions about supporting domestic industries and state-owned enterprises in Nepal.
