Former Federation of Nepalese Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FNCCI) President Chandra Prasad Dhakal has held talks with UAE Minister of Foreign Trade Dr Thani bin Ahmed Al Zeyoudi on expanding bilateral trade, investment and tourism cooperation.
The discussions also focused on marking the 50th anniversary of diplomatic relations between Nepal and the UAE next year, strengthening investment frameworks and promoting high-level exchanges. Dhakal invited UAE investors to explore opportunities in Nepal’s hydropower, agriculture, IT and data centre sectors.
He also urged the UAE to introduce direct flights to Bhairahawa, following Flydubai’s direct service to Pokhara, to improve connectivity with Lumbini and boost tourism.
