Er. Kandel Promotes Kandel Foundation on the International Stage
KATHMANDU, NEPAL, 24 NOVEMBER 2019
During the Knowledge Summit 2019, Er. Kandel spoke to H.E. Juan Carlos Varela Rodriguez, the former Foreign Minister from 2009-2011 and former President of Panama from 2014-2019.
This was a very productive discussion as Er. Kandel spoke to His Excellency about a variety of topics, especially about his NGO, the Kandel Foundation, which attempts to empower the societies it works in through the power of sport, ensuring that all children are provided with opportunities they should have but have not yet been provided.
Er. Kandel and Mr Rodriguez spoke about the project in detail and the potential of bringing the project to Panama. This would be the first country the Kandel Foundation would expand its organisation to in the region of South and Central America. Mr Rodriguez was very happy to hear about the project in detail and welcomed the opportunity of the Foundation coming to his state and empowering societies in it.
In addition to this, Er. Kandel invited Mr Rodriguez to Nepal for a personal and diplomatic visit during Nepal Tourism Year 2020. This is Nepal’s attempts to encourage at least two-million international tourists and passengers around the world to come to the state. This diplomatic visit is believed to be an excellent opportunity to promote Nepal on the world stage and improve Nepal-Panama relations, only increasing the state’s tourism.
The Office of Dipendra Kandel would like to thank H.E. Juan Carlos Varela Rodriguez for his time during the Knowledge Summit 2019 and looks forward to meeting and collaborating with the former President of Panama in the near future.
