Bangladesh India Joint Expedition for Peace to Mt Rubal Kang
I congratulate the members of the Bangladesh India Joint Expedition for Peace to Mt Rubal Kang (6187m) for their efforts to promote peace by climbing a challenging Himalayan summit. As mountaineers, they have shown that no barrier or problem is too big if you break it down into small steps and look for simple solutions.
Their initiative is a true demonstration of the inherent values of mountaineering, such as courage, friendship, respect and cooperation. This collection of excellent photographs is an important testament to their achievement. Their example has shown the way, and I hope that it will encourage others to promote peace through sport and international cooperation.
