Vice President Ram Sahaya Prasad Yadav will embark on a visit to China prior to Prime Minister Pushpa Kamal Dahal 'Prachanda's China visit.
Vice President will leave for China to participate in the South Asian Expo to be held in Kunming of South China in the coming week.
This is the seventh edition of the Expo which the northern neighbor has been organizing every year. "The Solidary and Cooperation for Common Development" is the main topic for discussion this year.
Yunnan Province government is the organizer of this Expo this year.
"China has already sent an invitation letter to Vice President Yadav. Vice President's preparations are underway, accordingly," the source said, "However, it has yet to be announced officially."
