The concept of Public-Private Partnership in Pakistan (PPP) has proved successful in developing the economy and we have to take further measures for strengthening this system, said Kokio Tamaki, Representative of the Japan External Trade Organisation (Jetro) and special advisor to the FPCCI here on Tuesday.
"Due to prudent and liberal economic policies of the government, the economic indicators have shown upward trends but still there is a room for improving it," Kokio said while addressing the senior executives and members of the Rawalpindi Chamber of Commerce and Industry (RCCI).
Jetro representative was of the view that active co-operation between public and private sectors was key to economic stability. Speaking on the occasion, the RCCI president Dr Hassan Sarosh Akram said that government should take measures to motivate people running poultry and CNG industries in Potohar region. These are the main job provider to youths in the region, he added.
Sarosh hailed the continuation of the government's economic policies saying that this has brought economic stability and attracted the foreign investment in different sectors of the economy.
He stressed the need for appointment of professional commercial attaches in embassies abroad saying that they would give better results in attracting costumers for Pakistani products.
Sarosh lauded the role of Jetro in bringing Pakistan and Japan closer saying that the trade volume has increased significantly with the positive efforts of both the sides. By involving and facilitating private sector both the countries would succeed in expanding import and export besides enhancing the trade volume, he added.
