Kathmandu, 7 May: Though the signing of the Protocol on Implementing Agreement on Transit and Transport between Nepal and China has ensured Nepal’s access to the Chinese sea and land ports, no adequate field work has been carried out for the smooth implementation of it. Only paper work has been completed in this regard.
Nepal’s complete dependency on India for third-country trade has ended in principle but much work relating to construction of infrastructure is needed. Experts say that roads and other infrastructure at border points are imperative to start using the Chinese sea and land ports.
The Ministry of Industry, Commerce and Supply, responsible for implementation of the Protocol , is hosting a press conference this afternoon to dwell upon this matter.
