MAW Foundation Supports Kathmandu Valley Traffic Police with 10 Motorcycles

At MAW Foundation, we believe that businesses have a responsibility to give back to the community. Today, on 2082/06/05 BS (September 21, 2025), we took another step in that direction by supporting the Kathmandu Valley Traffic Police Office with the handover of 10 motorcycles.


Why We Did This

Kathmandu Valley faces growing traffic challenges every single day. Limited resources have often placed extra pressure on our Traffic Police, who work tirelessly to ensure smooth mobility and public safety. As part of our commitment to social responsibility, we wanted to contribute in a way that directly strengthens their ability to serve the public.


The Handover Program

The motorcycles were handed over to AIGP Mr. Dan Bahadur Karki, Chief of Kathmandu Valley Police, in a program held at the Traffic Police Office. Our Chairman, Mr. Vishnu Kumar Agrawal, along with other members of the Foundation, personally joined the ceremony to express our solidarity and appreciation for the work of the traffic police.

The event was also attended by SSP Mr. Navaraj Adhikari, senior police officials, and traffic personnel, making it a meaningful exchange of partnership and goodwill.


Our Commitment

This initiative is more than just a donation. It reflects our belief that safer roads and smoother traffic management create a stronger, more connected community. By providing these motorcycles, MAW Foundation—with the support of the broader MAW Group of Companies—hopes to enhance the efficiency, mobility, and responsiveness of the Kathmandu Valley Traffic Police.


Looking Ahead

We remain committed to supporting projects that improve everyday life in Nepal. Whether through traffic safety, community development, or social welfare, MAW Foundation will continue to stand by initiatives that bring positive change.

Yamaha Brings Fresh New Variants of MT-15 V2 & FZ-S V3 DLX to NADA 2025

At the NADA Auto Show 2025, Yamaha Nepal is turning heads again. Partnered with MAW Auto Pvt. Ltd., under MAW Nepal and the broader MAW Group of Companies, Yamaha unveiled two striking new variants: the MT-15 V2 in “ICE STORM” and “Vivid Violet Metallic”, and the FZ-S V3 DLX in “ICE FLUO VERMILLION.” The reveal took place at the Yamaha Blue Chamber (Stall No. TW1), in the Bhrikuti Mandap Exhibition Hall.

What’s New & What It Means

These updates aren’t just about new colors. They reflect how Yamaha (and MAW’s team behind its operations here) want to stay in touch with what riders want — style, personality, and that feeling of owning something fresh. The MT-15 V2’s new shades give it even more edge; the FZ-S V3 DLX “ICE FLUO VERMILLION” adds bold character to its recognizable style.

Perks at the Event

Yamaha and MAW Auto Pvt. Ltd. are not stopping at the visuals. Visitors to the Blue Chamber can explore Yamaha’s full line of bikes and scooters. Plus, there are deals and extras just for NADA attendees:

  • Up to Rs. 7,000 discount on selected models
  • Every booking of an MT-series motorcycle gets a premium MT riding jacket
  • And there’s also a chance to catch a live MotoGP race experience tied to these bookings.

Voices from MAW

Mr. Vishnu Kumar Agrawal, Chairman of MAW Rides Pvt. Ltd. (part of the MAW family), commented that the NADA show is one of the best ways to connect with Nepal’s riding community. He said these new variants are about giving people more choice, flair, and that sense of freedom you get when you ride.

Why This Matters

For many riders here, what makes a bike special is more than engine specs — it’s about identity. The look, the feel, how you’re seen. Yamaha through MAW wants that emotional part covered. Also, with the backing and infrastructure of MAW Auto Pvt. Ltd., MAW Nepal, and supported by the larger MAW Group of Companies, customers can expect good after-sales, support and access. That adds peace of mind.


If you ride, follow bike-style trends, or want something that stands out in Nepal’s streets, these new Yamaha variants at NADA 2025 are worth checking out in person.
