Ganesh Prasad Timilsina said that the Vietnam Nepal relationship is built on the foundation of friendship, mutual understanding as well as similarities in culture. Since the two countries officially established diplomatic relations on May 15, 1975, this relationship developed and achieved good results.

The Chairman of Nepal's National Assembly emphasized that Vietnam is not only an inspiration to himself and the Nepalese in the struggle for national independence and reunification, but also a typical example in socio-economic development, hunger eradication and poverty reduction.

On this occasion, Ganesh Prasad Timilsina thanked the Government and people of Vietnam for supporting Nepal in difficulties caused by the Covid-19 pandemic as well as on international forums.

He wished to promote the two countries' relations in the fields of economy, trade, culture, education, especially tourism.

He suggested the two sides strengthen the exchange of delegations at all levels, especially high-level delegations, open embassies in Vietnam and Nepal, and direct flights between the two countries.

This is so that Vietnamese Buddhists and Vietnamese people as well as Nepalese people have better conditions to visit each other's countries, creating a foundation for strengthening cooperation in various fields between the two sides.

As the Chairman of the National Assembly, Ganesh Prasad Timilsina will propose to the government, agencies and organizations of Nepal to create the best conditions to realize the above goals.

He also wished the Vietnam-Nepal Friendship Association, as a people's organization, to promote its capabilities and strengths to foster friendship and act as a bridge between organizations, businesses and individuals of Nepal and Vietnam.
