Kathmandu, Apr. 21:
Former Prime Minister
Jhalanath Khanal on Sunday said that the principles of Bandung Conference were
still relevant.
"Principles of
Bandung Conference were the foundation of new international relations and world
order then and still have the power to create another change," he said
while speaking at the 64th Anniversary of Bandung Conference
organised by the Afro-Asian Peoples' Solidarity Organisation of Nepal.
He said that the
importance of the principles of Bandung was also considered by the United
Nations as well.
He said that Asia will
rise in the immediate future and its growth will change the 5,000 years old
world order.
According to him, the
rise of China and India will define new relations in Asia so Nepal should be
prepared to get benefits in such situation.
A conference of Asian political
parties is being organised to discuss issues like Asian Union, Common currency
and development models.
