Kathmandu,
Mar. 2:
Nepal is committed to ensuring an environment
conducive to investment, both domestic and foreign, by establishing industrial
peace and ensuring law and order, said Prime Minister Pushpa Kamal Dahal
Prachanda while inaugurating Nepal Investment Summit 2017.
The two-day summit kicked off in the capital on
Thursday.
“To meet our investment needs, we have financial gaps
as our resource base is narrow. To plug such gaps, the importance of foreign
investment is paramount. Therefore, it is the private sector that is a key
partner to enhancing investment and lead the economic development,” said the
PM.
He said that to spur economic growth, the government
was committed to playing the role of a facilitator.
According to PM Prachanda, creating an enabling
environment for business and attracting investment were the top priority of the
government, and the policies and procedures were being rationalised in order to
make them simple for business to establish and grow.
While urging the foreign investors, the PM said that
they were allowed 100 per cent ownership of a company in almost all sectors and
repatriation of capital and profits was also allowed.
“Our tax regime is very transparent, predictable and
investor-friendly. Our commitment to further consolidate reforms ensures one
thing – the business climate in Nepal will be more investment friendly,” said
PM Prachanda.
The PM listed the benefits of investing in Nepal, such
as abundance of natural resources, a large number of low cost workers, growing
domestic demand, location between two of the world’s largest markets, liberal
policies, laws, institutions and commitment to the rule of law.
Minister for Industry Nabindra Raj Joshi used the
forum to say that there were business opportunities in Nepal, in which global
capital could be deployed to unlock the market and spread prosperity.
“Nepal wants funds, know-how and collaboration, and in
return, Nepal is prepared to give you opportunities in tourism, infrastructure
and mining as well as in public services, such transport, health care and
education,” said Joshi, who is also the chairman of the Summit Organising
Committee.
He informed the international community that there was
a broad agreement among the political forces that the phase of transitional
political changes was over, and the current focus was on economic
transformation.
“I can safely say that whatever we do for promoting
investment is backed by the commitment of the political leaders, Government of
Nepal and will of the people of the nation at large,” said the Industry
Minister.
He urged the foreign investors to invest in high yield
and competitive advantage areas like water and energy, infrastructure, high
value low volume agriculture-related activities, tourism, including destination
development and promotion, health and education, and mines and minerals.
Chairman of the CPN-UML, the main opposition party, KP
Sharma Oli assured the investors on behalf of the opposition parties, of every
possible cooperation to them.
“I would like to assure you that in terms of
investment, be that domestic or foreign, the government and opposition are
always together,” he said.
According to Oli, Nepalese were eager and ready to
contribute to their part for the sake of economic growth, development and
prosperity to sustain and consolidate the hard fought political gains.
“With a view to improving and facilitating trade and
investment, Nepal has reduced tariffs, simplified the tax regime and focused on
the development and operation or trade-related infrastructure,” he said.
Chief Executive Officer of the Investment Board of
Nepal (IBN) Maha Prasad Adhikari said that the government was facilitating
investment through various policy reforms, and urged the investors to
investment in large infrastructure projects like hydropower.
Chairman of the Nepali Congress Sher Bahadur Deuba
urged the investors to invest in smart energy.
National Planning Commission vice-chairman Min Bahadur
Shrestha said that the central planning body was drafting a long-term
development vision to ensure increased opportunities for investment in Nepal.
