Addressing a programme organized by the Solidarity Monthly Publication on the occasion of the 55th anniversary of Nepal-Thailand bilateral relations here today, Minister Pandey said that the existing bilateral relations should be strengthened in the days ahead.

Minister Pandey further said that international highway linking Thailand, Myanmar and India is the symbol of cultural relations in the South Asia region and hoped it would be effective to link the regions.

Mrs Jiraporn Sudanich, Thai Minister Counselor and Deputy Chief of Mission to Nepal said that the bilateral relations should be developed as a limestone for South to South economic development centre.

On the occasion, former ambassador Hiranya Lal Shrestha said the bilateral relations between these countries should be interpreted through the perspective of Hindu and Buddha religion along with politics and culture.
