Japanese ambassador visits Oli to congratulate him on majority victory in elections

Bhaktapur, Dec 16 : CPN (UML) Chair KP Sharma Oli and Japan’s Ambassador for Nepal, Masashi Ogawa held a meeting Saturday. The Japanese Ambassador reached Oli’s Balkot-based private residence to congratulate the latter on the majority victory of the left alliance in the recently held elections to the House of Representatives and State Assemblies.
On the occasion, the UML chair said the left alliance is ready to move ahead taking support from friendly nations. He said he has expected Japan’s assistance to the areas of development, construction and social awareness in Nepal as usual in the days ahead as well.
Corruption control, development and transparency will be the priorities of the left alliance and a new government will do its best to end inequalities, social discriminations and mismanagement and alleviate poverty, according to him. “We are committed to institutionalising basic norms and values of democracy.” The Japanese Ambassador said he hoped to see the formation of a stable government in Nepal in the aftermath of the elections, pledging the continuity of Japan’s assistance to Nepal in the future, too.
