President of NBCCI Mr. Mohan Krishna Shrestha from the chair said- "In view of the small of the national market, the need to extend the market for Nepal's product worldwide is quite necessary. Today the world is more interdependent. No national can prosper in isolation. With this in view, different bilateral chamber of commerce began to be established after 1990. We preferred to establish Nepal - Benelux Chamber of Commerce and Industries. The reason behind this being the uniformity in the situations of Nepal and Benelux countries such as constitutional monarchy, parliamentary system of government, small size of the country and above all, the positive attitude of the prosperous Benelux countries towards the less developed countries like Nepal. The trade between Nepal and Luxembourg is far below the desired level. It needs to be increased for our mutual benefit. We are happy to see the prosperity in Luxembourg, a very close friend of Nepal. We would definitely benefit by sharing experience." He highlighted "This chamber acts as a link between the business communities of Nepal and Benelux countries. The main objective of the Chamber is to explore and promote the trade within these countries. Besides, this chamber also aims to play active role in the transfer of appropriate technology and promotion of foreign investments.
