Pakistan, India advised to focus on
trade
LAHORE, Dec 3: Pakistani businessmen must look at their Indian
counterparts as collaborators and not competitors and there must an effort to
chalk out plans for mutually beneficial cooperation in trade. This was said by Synthetic and Rayon Textiles Export Promotion Council (SRTEPC), India chairman Vinod Kumar Ladia at the Lahore Chamber of Commerce and Industry (LCCI) on Monday.
On the occasion, LCCI and SRTEPC inked an MoU for the promotion of mutual relations and dissemination of trade related information.
Ladia urged both the governments to expedite normalisation of trade relations.
Stressing the need for joint ventures between the two countries, he said that both sides have a lot to offer in a large number of sectors.
The SRTEPC chairman said that as many as 35 leading Indian textile companies were exhibiting their latest range of products.
“We are offering Pakistani businessmen a unique opportunity and this is ample proof that Indian businessmen are more than willing to take their Pakistani counterparts along,” he added.
He said that INTEXPO 2012 has set the stage to develop close linkages between the private sectors representatives of two countries.
LCCI President Farooq Iftikhar said in his welcome address that INTEXPO has a unique importance and significance because it was being organised at a time when both the countries were in the process of finalising various moves particularly in the context of granting MFN status.
LCCI Senior Vice-President Irfan Iqbal Sheikh said that recent productive developments between the two governments would help fortify economic and commercial relations between two countries.
LCCI Vice-President Mian Abuzar Shad said improving trade ties would help resolve larger political issues that had been obstructing friendly and cordial relations and would bring peace and prosperity in the region.
