"The relationships between these to brotherly countries have been strengthening from last three to four years and it would grow further after Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan visited the flood-hit regions in Pakistan and launched aid campaigns there. "Red Crescent of Turkey played pivotal role for rehabilitation of flood affected people in Pakistan," he lauded.
"Kaya Bey", a Turkish energy ship, which anchored at Karachi port to generate electricity for Pakistan is another example of how Turkey wants to strengthen the infrastructure of Pakistan, he said, adding that under power of friendship, power of brotherhood project and in demonstration of solidarity of Turkish investors with their brothers in Pakistan, Turkey has dedicated an impressive installed capacity of a total 33OMWs to Pakistan out of its world-wide fleet of power ships, it is because of this the second power ship arrived to overcome the electricity shortage."
