LAHORE: In post-COVID era, product diversification is key to economic success. Exports are the lifeline of countries' economy and many sectors including leather, carpets, rice and halal meat etc need to be facilitated to increase their share in the global export market.
President of the Lahore Chamber of Commerce and Industry (LCCI) Mian Tariq Misbah said this while giving his policy statement here on Friday. He said importers should not be forgotten as they are also fulfilling the demands of the country.
Speaking about the importance of ease of doing businesses, he said trivial works which should be done in no time take more time of the businessmen in order to achieve the ease in doing businesses. We have decided to bring everyone here the remaining government departments, offices, so that the average time a businessman spends on these petty doable works should be reduced.
He said the fundamental changes the industrialists demand in structure, policy making, tax system and in business environment have to be systematically rationalized, adding we need to be consulted during the process of brain storming for the formulation of policies as we are the major stakeholders and directly impacted both positively and negatively due to these policies.
