Beijing has reopened two-way trade from the Rasuwagadhi-Kerung port in Nepal, which was shut since the start of the Covid pandemic. Rasuwagadhi is the oldest trading route between Nepal and China. The goods exported from Nepal are mainly sold in Tibetan cities like Lhasa, Shigatse and Amdo. As per sources from Rasuwagadhi Customs Office, nearly a dozen containers loaded with Nepali produce have crossed the border till Monday this last week since the reopening of two-way trade. Exports of bamboo bundles, bamboo furniture and handicraft materials including copper handicraft materials are taking place from Rasuwagadhi which is the international trade point of Nepal with China.
At present, 14 containers have been importing goods to Nepal daily via the custom point. But still, Beijing has not allowed the movement of people from the border point.
