In March Reiner Strauss will fly to Nepal for the 50th time, as always, at his own expense. The main objective will be the advancement of the dual training system. The interlocutors include the ambassador, the consulate general and the German Society for International Cooperation. Strauss will also speak to IHK Mittlerer Niederrhein managing director Jürgen Steinmetz to find out how German companies could be involved. The 81-year-old Strauss still has a lot planned. He hopes the recent quarrels within the Nepal Initiative won’t hurt the support of the Nepalese people.
