According to statistics, Nepal remains Xizang's largest foreign trading partner. In recent years, the resumption of operations at China-Nepal border ports, the launch of the Xigaze International Land Port, and the inauguration of the South Asia freight train service have fueled rapid growth in bilateral trade. From January to May this year, Xizang's import and export volume with Nepal reached 1.795 billion yuan, marking a 14% year-on-year increase.
