KATHMANDU, DECEMBER 10

Stakeholders have urged Nepal and Saudi Arabia to explore their collaboration beyond the labour market and facilitate exchange of visits between the two countries to tap the benefits from their growing markets.

A video documentary portraying Saudi Arabia's efforts to diversify its economy and reduce its dependence on oil was also shown at the programme.

Some Nepali migrant workers employed in Saudi Arabia said their destination country was a good place to work as they were getting good remuneration packages.

Former President of FNCCI Bhawani Rana said Nepali business community stood in solidarity with 'Saudi Vision 2030'. 'We now need to think beyond the labour market,' she said.
