Addressing Closing Ceremony of the training course organized in Khusi Khusi Resort, Kathmandu, Mr. Ghimire encouraged participants to contribute their best in post-earthquake reconstruction activities and implement the knowledge and skills gained through training. He said, "The TFI training is like Commando Training as I learnt, you were the lucky ones to participate as we have less TFI graduates in Nepal and on behalf of NRA and government as well I commit to utilize the skills and knowledge you have attained during the course."
