Press briefing of Cabinet Decision taken on 2017-10-24
Signing a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between the Bandaranaike International Diplomatic Training Institute (BIDTI) of Sri Lanka and the Institute of Foreign Affairs of Nepal (IFA)
- A proposal has been made to enter into a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between the Bandaranaike International Diplomatic Training Institute (BIDTI) of Sri Lanka and the Institute of Foreign Affairs of Nepal (IFA) to provide an opportunity for the officials in the diplomatic, foreign policy and international relation sectors in Sri Lanka and Nepal, and the parties interested in those fields, to exchange information, expertise and training programmes.

As such, this will pave the way to further expand the long term friendship existing between Sri Lanka and Nepal and to build up interrelations among emerging leaders, officials and students of both countries. Accordingly, the proposal made by Hon. Thilak Marapana, the Minister of Foreign Affairs, to sign the proposed MoU and thereafter, take appropriate measures to implement the Agreement effectively, was approved by the Cabinet.
