He said that the Governor's House was wholeheartedly opened to assist the business community in solving their issues and concerns.
He also urged that Pakistani manufacturers and exporters to focus on producing high quality products according to the European standards so that they could not only maintain their market share but take it to new heights. Iftikhar Ali Malik thanked the Punjab Governor and assured him that business community would support the business friendly policies of the government. Pakistan is directly linked with better economy followed by politically stabled government, he said.
He said the government should offer special package of power and gas tariffs for rapid industrial growth on the pattern of China. As a result of high tariffs and taxation, cost of production is increasing and cannot compete in global market thus badly hampering export substantially, he added.
