PM: Nepal-Japan friendship pure, unblemished

By A Staff Reporter,Kathmandu, March. 1 : Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli has expressed confidence that the upcoming Third Nepal-Japan Friendship Summit 2025 will further strengthen the bilateral ties between the two nations. 

Speaking with a Japanese delegation and Nepali coordinators attending the summit at the Prime Minister's Residence in Baluwatar on Friday, PM Oli highlighted the long-standing relationship between Nepal and Japan, which has now expanded to include trade and economic cooperation. “Nepalis have gone to Japan for better employment opportunities. Nepal’s paper has reached Japan, and Japan’s Golden Trout has entered Nepal. There are numerous dimensions to such strong people-to-people connections,” said PM Oli. 

According to him, the friendship between the two nations is pure and unblemished, like the blooming Sakura. This problem-free relationship and development partnership must be further elevated with the support of information technology, he maintained. 

PM Oli also noted that Japan serves as an example of how peace fosters development while war leads to destruction. He also reiterated Nepal’s strong desire and active efforts to promote global peace. The summit, organised by the IDEA Studio was held in Nepal from February 26 to 28.
