India wants better cooperation with Cambodia: Ansari
Phnom Penh: Vice President Hamid Ansari on Wednesday said India wants to expand areas of cooperation with Cambodia and urged the Indian community in Cambodia “to share with him areas where more cooperation is needed”.
Ansari, who is on a three-day visit to Cambodia from September 15-17 at the invitation of Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen, addressed the Indian community at an event hosted here by the Indian Ambassador in Cambodia Navin Srivastava.
He said Cambodia has had more than its share of turmoil, adding that it has demonstrated its capability to overcome all such turmoil, a statement released here said.
He said India valued its relationship with Cambodia.
“We want to build up our relations based on the needs of government and the people. We would want to explore and expand areas of more cooperation and call upon the Indian community in Cambodia to share the areas where more cooperation is needed,” he said.
Ansari will hold talks with the leadership there to strengthen ties and shore up the “below potential” bilateral trade and investment as part of India’s push for an enduring partnership with ASEAN countries, the release said.
The RG Marathon Championship Run 2023 in Goa was a testament to inclusivity. Initially resistant to including persons with disabilities, it eventually featured wheelchair and standing categories, thanks to advocates’ efforts. Participants showed exceptional determination, emphasizing unity in diversity. Despite challenging weather, they demonstrated the power of community support, highlighting the need for accessibility and inclusion in all state-level events in Goa.
Following the marathon, a gathering of differently-abled individuals, predominantly wheelchair users, convened for a celebratory lunch at Barzilla. The event, orchestrated by Mr. Shariq Khan and Mr. Zain Aftab, proprietors of Barzilla, honored the birthday of Sadaf Fatima, who also uses a wheelchair and is Mr. Shariq Khan’s wife.
The lunch featured esteemed guests including the Tourism Minister of Goa, MLA Rohan Khaunte of Porvorim, Social Welfare Minister Subhash Phal Desai, and the State Commissioner for Persons with Disability in Goa, Guruprasad Pawaskar. The event was impeccably hosted by Ms. Falak Fatima and Mr. Adarsh Parashar, offering activities such as Karaoke and Billiards. The youth of Goa exhibited their unwavering support for the community, making the party an unequivocal success.
