November 29, 2018 (MLN): The President Dr. Arif Alvi has expressed deep appreciation for the Emir of Qatar, Sheikh Falah Bin Jassim Bin Jabor Al-Thani’s decision to import 100,000 workers from Pakistan, said in a press release on Wednesday.

According to the press release, noting the contribution of Pakistani manpower in the progress and development of Qatar, he offered the services of skilled, semi-skilled and un-skilled Pakistani workers to meet the requirements of Qatari job market.

He appreciated Qatar’s decision to choose Pakistan for setting up Qatari visa centers, to streamline the recruitment process and assured Qatari dignitary of Pakistan’s full cooperation in the matter, says the press release.

During the talks, the president expressed satisfaction on the steady growth of bilateral relations, particularly increasing volume of Pakistan’s export to Qatar following the linking of Karachi Port with Hamad Port.

Expressing deep association and affection for Pakistan and its people, the Qatari dignitary informed that Qatar was now importing 140,000 workers from Pakistan, says the report.

Underscoring the importance of leadership level contacts between the two countries, the President looked forward to the next session of Joint Ministerial Commission in Doha early next year.
