Prime Minister (PM) Shehbaz Sharif has extended a warm invitation to companies from Saudi Arabia, encouraging them to explore exciting investment prospects in various sectors such as agriculture, mining, technology, energy, and more.
This friendly call was made during a meeting with Saudi Arabia’s Vice Minister for Foreign Affairs, Waleed Abdulkarim El Khereji, held in Islamabad.
To boost economic partnerships, PM Shehbaz highlighted the creation of a Special Investment Facilitation Council (SIFC). This council is designed to simplify and speed up potential investments from countries in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC), with a special focus on enhancing collaborations with Saudi Arabia.
PM Shehbaz also expressed heartfelt appreciation for Saudi Arabia’s timely financial support, particularly in the aftermath of natural disasters like floods. He acknowledged the Kingdom’s crucial role in helping Pakistan work towards a stable economy.
He emphasised the importance of the visit by the Saudi delegation, underscoring the shared interest and eagerness on both sides to elevate their long-standing friendly relations to a practical and mutually beneficial economic partnership.
In a significant earlier announcement, PM Shehbaz revealed plans to auction gifts from the Toshakhana. The funds generated from this auction will be directed towards the well-being of underprivileged individuals, especially those who are orphaned and vulnerable.
