The Pakistan Property Show (PPS) 2019, organised by Pakistan's largest property portal Zameen.com, has successfully concluded at the Dubai World Trade Centre in Dubai the other day.

Sharing details of the show, a spokesperson for Zameen.com told the media on Sunday that Consul General of Pakistan in UAE Amjad Ahmad Ali had graced the occasion as special guest on its second and last day. He said a total of 64 exhibitors offered property options from Pakistan's most important cities including Karachi, Lahore, Islamabad, Multan, Peshawar, Murree, Faisalabad, Gujranwala, Rahim Yar Khan and Gwadar which attracted more than 20,000 visitors.

"For the first time, the Pakistani government also participated in the PPS," he said, adding that the Privatisation Commission of Pakistan on the directions of Prime Minister has been tasked with engaging the expatriate community in an effort to find buyers for dead-weight government properties.

"Such events provide ideal opportunities to engage with the overseas Pakistanis because of their phenomenal outreach," the spokesperson said quoting the privatisation commission director general Iftikhar Hussain Naqvi. He further said that this was the third annual edition of the PPS which was arranged by the Zameen.com, adding that the previous two editions had generated a combined audience of more than 31,000.

Speaking to the media, Zameen.com chief executive officer Zeeshan Ali Khan said: "The success of Pakistan Property Show is in fact the success of UAE-based Pakistanis, whose participation generates an invaluable inflow of foreign exchange to Pakistan." Earlier, the PPS 2019 was inaugurated by His Excellency Marwan Ahmed bin Ghalita, CEO of Real Estate Regulatory Agency (RERA) Dubai.
