Confederation of Nepalese Industries

priority to export and promotion of domestic products through Nepali embassies

A CNI delegation led by its
President, Rajesh Kumar Agrawal, called on the minister on Sunday, to request
the government to give high priority to economic diplomacy to bring in foreign
investment, and to promote Nepali products, and promote tourism in the
international markets.
Agrawal emphasised that policy
stability, easy business environment and quick decision-making mechanism are
necessary to attract the Foreign Direct Investment (FDI). He said that in order
to attract foreign investment to Nepal, it is necessary to expand business
relations with investors from the concerned countries.
For this, Nepali embassies should
facilitate regular visits and interactions of business delegations, he said.
The CNI stressed the cargo
railway service started from India to Biratnagar shouold be continued, and the
movement of Nepali freighters and other vehicles should be facilitated by
making a motor vehicle agreement between Nepal and India.
