The last meeting took place more than two years ago, in January 2010. Despite Gyari's desire to resign in April 2011, Kalon Tripa asked both envoys to continue their efforts to contact their Chinese counterparts.. They met and reported to the Kalon Tripa on twelve occasions since May 2011 and the current.
