In the second session of today’s seminar, Zhang Shubin, Deputy Director, Nepal Study Center at Heibei University of Economics and Business presented paper on the topic “A Practical Way to Achieve Nepal’s Stability and Prosperity: China-Nepal-India Economic and Cultural Corridor.”

“In terms of population and size, Nepal is no small country,” he said adding “The world should first shed this mindset.”

He said that China’s Kailash and Manasarovar, Nepal’s Lumbini, the birthplace of Buddha and India’s Bodhgaya and Sarnath can be developed into cultural corridors to bring the people of the three countries together culturally. “If India joins hands with China in helping Nepal, Nepal’s Kathmandu can be developed into Brussels of South Asia,” he viewed.  He opined that economic and cultural connectivity between three countries provide ways to achieve peace and prosperity in the South Asian region.
