CHICAGO - (BUSINESS WIRE) - Sujata Koirala, the Foreign Minister of Nepal, (a position comparable to that of United States Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton) is visiting Chicago prior to her appearance at the United Nations General Assembly. She is being joined by the Acting Ambassador of Nepal from Washington, D.C. and a delegation of five others which will include cabinet member, the Minister of Health, who recently decided to join her. (It should be noted that it has been suggested Foreign Minister Koirala be appointed for the additional position of Deputy Prime Minister of Nepal.)

Marvin A. Brustin, Honorary Consul General of Nepal, will host the Foreign Minister of Nepal at a luncheon to be held at the Woman's Athletic Club, 626 N. Michigan, Chicago, at noon on Tuesday, September 22nd, Expected attendance includes numerous prominent political, civic and business leaders as well as the Chicago Diplomatic Corps. The Foreign Minister is anticipated to make a major address and discuss her desire and methods of further improving American-Nepal relations. In light of Nepal recently becoming a Republic many questions may arise from the audience that she will address. The press is invited to cover this event and pose questions if they wish.

Earlier in the day the Foreign Minister will have a private meeting with Mayor Daley to discuss matters of mutual interest to Nepal and Chicago.
