"There is imperative need to diversify Pakistan's exports to Germany since 80 percent of the trade is restricted to textiles and leather. The present trade regime of both Pakistan and Germany does not reflect the desired potential that is achievable."
This was stated by Hans-Joachim Kiderlen. Consul-General of Germany, during a meeting with Majyd Aziz, President of Karachi Chamber of Commerce and Industry (KCCI).
He said: "Individual German businessmen are very satisfied with their business partners here and prefer to do business with those with whom they have developed long-term relationships because of the high quality and reliability of Pakistan's entrepreneurs."
Kiderlen added that Germany could be an excellent source for municipal technology as Germany excels in municipal management and technical techniques. He said that Germany also has expertise in environmental technology and this could be beneficial to a city like Karachi
The German consul-general was agreeable to the idea of a business-friendly visa system in the consulate as, in his opinion, genuine businessmen and their technical people should be given due consideration. Welcoming the guests, Majyd Aziz said that efforts must be initiated to make trade and joint venture more meaningful and profitable.-PR
