KARACHI: Confidence of the consumer is always proportionate to safety and reliability of a product and this confidence can only be achieved through standardisation.

In his speech he acknowledged the fact that industrialisation, standardisation and economic growth grow together as without standardisation optimum growth cannot be achieved. Moreover, International Standards especially with regards to Pakistan is one single important factor that could direct/channelise the entire outlook of business.
