September 11, 2023 (MLN): The government is making all-out efforts to make Pakistani products compete with their rivals internationally for the benefit of the country’s trading community, Minister for Commerce, Industries, and Production Dr. Gohar Ejaz stated.

The agricultural, industrial, and textile sectors will play an important role in increasing exports, and reducing imports and will achieve sustainable economic growth in the country in the coming years, as APP reported.

“It is high time that all the political parties set aside their political differences and work jointly for the economic development of the country,” Dr. Gohar Ejaz further added.

He hoped that the country is capable of meeting its economic and social needs, adding, that the government is taking various steps to take the economy forward including agriculture which is considered the backbone of our economy.

Replying to a question, he replied that continuity of policy is also very important, and new governments need to carry the policies made by the previous governments.

The government is further encouraging foreign investment in the country and has vowed to provide an enabling environment to foreign businessmen who would invest in Pakistan, he mentioned.
