Chairman Businessmen Group (BMG) & Former President Karachi Chamber of Commerce & Industry (KCCI) Siraj Kassam Teli has advised the newly appointed Trade & Investment Officers to carry out extensive study of their designated countries and this study must review the country’s specific needs and what Pakistani products can be promoted and marketed so that our exports to all these countries could be enhanced. Speaking at a meeting with the recently appointed Trade & Investment Officers during their visit to KCCI, Chairman BMG stressed that staying confined to typical lip service only and a few traditional emails to the Ministry of Commerce, Ministry of Foreign Affairs or TDAP will do no good hence, the Trade & Investment Officers, who were formerly known as the Commercial Counsellors, must focus on creating a vibrant system of interaction and a platform for regular communications with an only intention to promote Pakistan and enhance linkages between the trading partners from Pakistan and their designated countries. President KCCI Agha Shahab Ahmed Khan, Senior Vice President Arshad Islam, Vice President Shahid Ismail, Chairman Special Committee for My Karachi Exhibition Muhammad Idrees, Former President Majyd Aziz and KCCI Managing Committee Members along with Trade & Investment Officers who were led by Deputy Director Trade Development Authority of Pakistan Fida Hussain, were also present at the meeting.
