Dr Shahid Hassan Saddiqui (Economist): Talking to Radio Pakistan he said international Economic Forum has great importance and it can help resolve our economic issues. Pakistan can get great benefits by participating in such activities because it has emerged as business and investor friendly country. Pakistan has become centre of attention for mainstream international business community due to close collaboration with China and rapid completion of CPEC. Pakistan rendered great sacrifices in war on terror for restoration of world peace that promoted soft image of our country. Pakistan is also making progress in fields of information technology and energy. This Pakistani delegation will achieve numerous successes.

 

Mirza Ikhtiyar Baig (Economist): This is very important and significant platform for world business leaders and investors. Gradually the US Dollar is being replaced by Chinese Yuan; that is a paradigm shift. The rapid growth in trade and investment across the globe is biggest achievement of the forum. Prime Minister Shahid Khaqan Abbasi is also participating in the annual session of WEF and he will apprise the world community about our successes in war on terror and achievement to overcome energy crises. We should also inform the international community about the sacrifices rendered by nation for restoration of world peace. Besides this PM Abbasi will highlight the importance of China-Pakistan Economic Corridor.

Dr Manzoor Khan Afridi (IR expert): This is vital opportunity for Pakistan to introduce itself as emerging economy in the world. This session of International Economic Forum will discuss the issues related to world economy and help bring significant developments in political and economic spheres. Pakistan will highlight CPEC and its benefits for the region as well as for the world. Besides this our delegation will also urge Shanghai Cooperation Organisation member states to join this game changer project. The CPEC project is not only linked to Pakistan or China but all progressive nations can reap equal benefits from it. Pakistan is playing significant role in rooting out the menace of terrorism from the world and also endeavouring to provide peaceful environment to neighbouring states including China, India and Russia.
