Nepalese Prime Minister Madhav Kumar Nepal has said that his country enjoys problem free relations with neighbouring China and attaches high importance to Beijing's assistance for its economic development.
Inaugurating the ultra-modern Conservation and Research Centre built with the Chinese assistance in Khumaltar in Lalitpur district, 10 km east of Kathmamndu, Prime Minister Nepal said that the centre will remain as a "symbol of friendly relations between the two countries".
"Nepal enjoys problem free relations with China," he said.
