Mian Rehman Aziz, said the FPCCI had always encouraged media and therefore he had already signed Memorandum of Understanding with Lahore Economic Journalists Association (LEJA) to pledge a closer working relationship between the two institutions and for the promotion of trade activities.

Former president of Sheikhupura Chamber of Commerce and Industry and Chairman FPCCI Standing Committee on Research and Development Manzoor ul Haq Malik said media should play energetic role in improving governance, increasing economic efficiency and stability, and creating positive social and environmental change.
