Andrey Demidov, Consul General of Russia in Pakistan along with Sergey L. Dolgopolsky, representative of M/s General Satellite Corporation, Russia visited Federation of Pakistan Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FPCCI) on Monday (yesterday) and met with Muhammad Mansha Churra, Acting President FPCCI and other members of FPCCI.
They discussed matters related to the Pakistan-Russia investment projects and joint venture co-operation in Direct To Home (DTH) TV satellite technology and further strengthening of the bilateral ties. Mansha Churra Acting-President FPCCI welcomed and thanked them for visiting FPCCI.
Dolgopolsky introduced their company and showed interest to invest and modernise the home TV technology of Pakistan. He said their company would like to enter into joint venture with Pakistani channels and during their current visit met with the different TV channels for introducing the DTH satellite technology in Pakistan.
He informed that they were ready to invest 50% of total cost of production. He stated that this channel would be a real information portal, provide information related to e-commerce, e-education and tele-medicines etc and will be easily accessible to every body.
He added that Pakistan is most appropriate country, because there is no DTH satellite channel in Pakistan as compared to our neighbouring country India, which has seven such channels. He requested FPCCI to introduce their company to interested Pakistani businessmen and help them in obtaining a license. He said that the average cost of these types of project in Russia is around US $20 million and in Pakistan the cost may vary according to model and services launched.-PR
