G R Arshad, honorary Consul General of Somalia, Life Chairman, Action Committee, All Pakistan Textile Processing Mills Association, Life member of the Federation of Pakistan Chambers of Commerce and Industry, former President of All Pakistan Textile Processing Mills Association, former President of Karachi Chamber of Commerce and Industry has congratulated the Government on its decision to allow research and development support to textile and garments industry.
It is an open secret that the textile and garment industries are on the verge of collapse due to high cost of doing business in Pakistan as compared to its regional competitors. The decision of the government is likely to extend a helping hand to the industry at this most critical time. G R Arshad urged the government to issue the necessary notification immediately.-PR
