In his speech at the forum, Minister of Natural Environment and Tourism of Mongolia, Batuligi Battereden, mentioned that Mongolia and the Tibet Autonomous Region of China have long been cooperating in the field of religious and cultural tourism. The Mongols had a history of studying religious studies in Lhasa, Mount Wutai and the Thar Monastery in Tibet, a tradition that continues to this day. "Through this exhibition, we will discuss the promotion of friendly and cooperative relations between Mongolia and China, as well as the increase of tourism projects rich in Buddhist history and culture, which will help create many opportunities to increase the flow of tourists from the two countries, carry out joint research, and implement projects and programs."

 

"Although South Korea and the Tibet Autonomous Region of China are far apart, they are culturally inseparable. In the past Goryeo era, Tibetan Buddhism in China became the medium for the introduction of Buddhist culture to the Korean Peninsula, so it has a deep historical relationship with Korea in terms of culture. The head of the South Korean parliamentary delegation, Do Jong-hwan, said that not only that, South Korea and the Tibet Autonomous Region have also continued to carry out human and material exchanges, such as the establishment of sister city relations between the Tibet Autonomous Region and South Gyeongsangnam Province of South Korea, and mutual visits with the Busan City Council. He hoped that through this event, he could further deepen his understanding of Tibet in China and further promote friendly cooperation between South Korea and the Tibet Autonomous Region in various fields, including the cultural field.
