Malay Chamber of Commerce Malaysia (DPMM) has urged the Malaysian entrepreneurs and businessmen to explore what it sees as "vast investment opportunities" in the surgical instruments, textile and leather sectors in Pakistan.
"The Chamber foresees a huge investment potential in Pakistan for Malaysian entrepreneurs to be explored in some sectors such as textiles, surgical instruments and Halal leather goods", said DPMM Deputy President Datuk Mohammad Alayuddin Hassan in an interview with a Malaysian newspaper 'Berita Harian' after his return from Karachi where he attended the Expo Pakistan 2012 as part of a 57-member Malaysian delegation of businessmen and entrepreneurs.
Datuk Mohammad Alayuddin said Pakistani textile products seemed like a very relevant item to be brought into the Malaysian market as they were of high quality and offered at a much lower price as compared to other textile-producing countries. "It is not just limited to one type of textile, but it also includes all other products including those for home use, hotel use and can also be bought in bulk," he said. He suggested that Malaysian entrepreneurs took that opportunity to become agents for the sale of surgical instruments manufactured in Pakistan.
