All Chinese friends and colleagues, and readers of the Global Times (GT), Happy New Year!

Chinese New Year is an intangible cultural Heritage of humanity. It represents the Chinese civilization, the on-going pursuit for peaceful co-existence, living in harmony, and human society, nature, and ecosystems. It augments best wishes, and enhances common values of people such as love, sharing, and caring.

This is a great festival, as I can see, many people are moving throughout the country to be within or outside China. In my view, it celebrates the success and lessons learnt from the past. 

My experience is very limited in this because I have not been fully or personally involved. But I was involved in the past with my friends, so it is good and enjoyable.

People-to-people relations are very good between Nepal and China.

In recent years, the relationship has been expanded through tourism, religious tourism, adventure tourism, and nature-based tourism. And social bonds, cultural bonds are also being augmented. 

In recent years, the Nepal-China infrastructure people-to-people contacts have been increased.

My impression of GT is very good. GT has an extensive coverage of politics, international relations, bilateral relations, regional cooperation and relations, global issues such as climate change impacts, specific review, economics, and development. There is room, of course, for improvement.

So, my impression is very good. I used to read GT a long time ago, when I was 20 years old. Since then, we have been reading this (newspaper), so it is a long time. 

I wish to continue the progress of these news articles. 

I would like to continue to access GT, to be enriched with new ideas and wish for good days in the future. Thank you very much for all the GT teams and for giving me opportunities to talk and give this message through GT. And I hope I will have more time to talk with GT. Thank you very much!

XIN NIAN KUAI LE!
