South East Asia (SAPE) Events and Media Private Limited oraganised the two-day education fair. SAPE also hosts such fair in Sri lanka, Bhutan, Nepal, Indonesia, Myanmar, Vietnam and Cambodia.
The relationship at the political level and the people to people contact of the two countries are excellent, Shringla observed.
