Sarhad Chamber of Commerce & Industry (SCCI) President Ghazanfar Bilour has stressed for removal of impediments in the bilateral trade between Pakistan and Afghanistan, bringing close business communities and promotion of economic and financial relations between both neighbouring countries.
Talking to senior economist of US embassy in Islamabad Anjum Akhtar here on Saturday, he said these initiatives could put the economies of both countries on the path of development and establishment of peace in the region. Sarhad Chamber of Commerce & Industry Senior vice president Inayat Khan was also present on the occasion.
