Nepal for taking the peace process to positive end: Koirala
Kathmandu: Nepal government is keen to
take the peace process to its positive conclusion through
active cooperation of all major political parties in the
country, Deputy Prime Minister Sujata Koirala has said.
Koirala, who is also Foreign Minister was speaking
at the launch of "In quest of Buddha: A journey on the Silk
Road" written by Indian writer Sunita Dwiwedi here yesterday.
The government is willing to take the peace process to
its positive conclusion through active support and cooperation
of all major political parties in the country, Koirala said.
"I firmly believe that scrupulous observance of
Buddha's teachings can play a vital role in institutionalising
peace in Nepal," she said at the function as chief guest.
"Buddha's philosophy and teachings have greater
pertinence and relevance to our country in the context of
difficult transition", she noted.
This is one of the great books that reveals Indian
interests in Chinese culture and the role played by Buddhism
in the life of Chinese people, she observed.
It seems that the concept of globalisation had been
conceived during that period through the Silk Road, Deputy
Prime Minister Koirala noted pointed out.
The book, released on October 8, 2009 in Delhi,
reveals about the facts about 'Silk Road' known as the world's
greatest international trade route that promoted trade and
cultural exchanges between the East and the West, according to
Dwivedi.
