HK businessmen to send FDI to Nepal

Kathmandu, Dec. 11: Hong Kong based Nepalese businessmen Sunday said that they had been working to send foreign investors to Nepal for investment and technology transfer.
"Hong Kong is a business and financial hub of Asia and businesspersons around the world are conducting their business from the island. Therefore, it could be an excellent platform for investment promotion," said Dasu Ram Parajuli, president of Nepal Chamber of Commerce Hong Kong, in an interaction programme organized here.
He said that the Chamber was planning to hold some business meetings and interactions in collaboration with the Nepalese Consulate in Hong Kong.
According to Parajuli, the chamber was planning to attract foreign investment in tourism and agro-business in Nepal.
"We are also creating an investors pool to raise about 250 million to 300 million dollar to make investment in large projects. It is better to make large investment collectively than establishing small projects at individual level," he said.
A lawyer by profession, Parajuli runs travel and tourism, and construction business in Nepal and Hong Kong.
G. P. Shrestha, chief executive officer of Creative Universal Limited said that a group of Non- Resident Nepalese and foreign investors was planning to make large investment in Africa, specially in Madagascar.
The company had leased about 2,400 square kilometer land in Madagascar and plans to invest in agriculture, fishery, candle, and FMCG industries.
