Dear Mr. Shrestha,

I would like to thank you for representing Canada-Nepal Friendship and Cultural Association to the Pacific Northwest Nepali Jamghat/picnic that was held on Saturday, August 31st in Portland, Oregon. Nepali Association of Oregon is very proud to organize this year Jamghat successfully. It was not possible without your active cooperation. We had a total of 366 participants from the US states Oregon, Washington, and the Canadian states British Columbia. Also, we had few participants from other US states and Nepal. We organize this regional picnic turn by turn every year in our three cities Portland, Seattle and Vancouver consecutively, and it has been a landmark to establish a new friendship between the participants, and renew our ongoing relationships. Personally, I was fortunate to spend plenty of time with you this time, and share knowledge and experiences that we have in our journey of lives. It has opened a new avenue in our relationship to work in the future both in organizational level as well as personal level. I am confident that your broad knowledge and long experiences in diverse fields definitely helping Canada-Nepal Friendship and Cultural Association to grow and be effective in its journey. Finally, I would like to wish all the best to your organization, and look forward to working together in the future!

Sincerely,

Bharat Banskota

President

Nepali Association of Oregon
