“These agreements will lead to a significant boost in the national economy, with billions of rupees expected to be added to the national treasury annually,” Tessori stated. He also highlighted the transformation these agreements will bring to Pakistan’s transport and logistics systems, laying the foundation for a robust economic future.
During the visit, CEO of AD Ports Pakistan Khurram Aziz briefed the Governor on the details of the agreements. Also present at the event were the UAE Consul General Bakheet Ateeq Al-Remeithi, CEO of AD Ports Group Mohamed Ali Tamimi, and the CEO of International Ports Asia and Africa, Abdul Aziz Balochi.

The governor also recognized the crucial role of workers in these projects, praising their dedication and hard work. “Without the tireless efforts of the laborers at the ports, development would not be possible. Their sacrifice strengthens our economy, and their welfare will always remain a top priority,” Tessori noted.
