Talking to the former president of the Chamber of Small Traders Malik Nadeem Akhtar, he said that he has identified some villages close to the federal capital where people would be provided basic facilities free of cost to bring improvement in their lives.

Aslam Khan noted that Pakistan is a very important country which is a gateway to energy-rich Central Asian states, financially solid Gulf states and economically advanced Far Eastern countries.

There are many economic and business opportunities available in multiple sectors in Pakistan, ease of doing business has been improved and while special economic zones have everything to attract foreign investors, he said.
