Pak-China Joint Chamber of Commerce and Industry (PCJCCI) President SM Naveed, in a meeting with the Chinese Ambassador Yao Jing has proposed to restart the operations of Cathay Pacific Airlines which was ceased in 2014.
This is the only airline that caters to twenty destinations from Pakistan to China while other airlines presently operating China - Pakistan route only caters to 5 or 6 destinations, he said adding that restart of airline operation will go a long way to strengthen economic relations between the two friendly nations. PCJCCI Secretary General Salahuddin Hanif was also present on the occasion.
PCJCCI president asked the Chinese Ambassador to extend preferential treatment to his chamber on visa issuance for China. Pak- China Chamber provides one stop solution to Chinese delegates which includes but not limited to facilitating visa issuance, security provision, business to business, business to government meetings, industrial visits, SEZ, providing awareness regarding taxation policies, SECP formalities, banking network, pre-feasibility reports and market assessment report, he added.
Speaking on the occasion, the Ambassador applauded the initiatives of promoting Chinese Language and culture, video conferencing facility and especially the efforts to support the visit of business delegations coming from China and vice versa.
He hoped that the enhanced communication and frequent exchange of trade delegations between the two countries would prove to be highly beneficial in achieving the ultimate goal of mutual prosperity and economic development.
He also appreciated the forthcoming visit of PCJCCI delegation comprising executive committee members to Beijing, Guangzhou and Chengdu and offered his support to make it even more fruitful so that the visit could be utilized for business matchmaking and arranging meetings with concerned business counterparts in China.
