Chinese side agrees to increase trade with Nepal

RASUWA: The number of Chinese goods imported through the Rasuwagadhi transit point will be increased. An agreement was reached to increase the volume of Chinese goods imported into Nepal from the transit during 'virtual' talks between the border officials of Rasuwa and Jilung Province in Kyirong, according to the Rasuwa District Administration Office. Efforts made by Rasuwa’s Chief District Officer (CDO) Nawaraj Jaisi to meet the demand of the Nepali market to increase imports, which have been declining due to Covid 19 infection, have been fruitful. He said that it has been agreed to bring 14 containers to Rasuwagadhi daily from nine containers starting later this month. Enthusiasm among traders and businesspersons has increased as the import volume of Chinese goods has increased. Entrepreneurs have said that 28 Nepali containers are expected to get daily employment after 14 large Chinese containers started arriving in Rasuwagadhi daily. BY RSS READ ALSO:
