Islamabad: Minister for Information and Broadcasting Attaullah Tarar on Monday termed Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif's China visit as historic and highly successful saying it would have positive impact on the country's economy.
Addressing a news conference in Islamabad on Monday, he expressed the confidence that there will be progress on the agreements and projects such as ML-1, Karachi Circular Railway, provision of IT training to two hundred thousand Pakistani youth by a Chinese tech company and the second phase of CPEC in the next few weeks.
He said the upgraded version of CPEC would be mutually beneficial for the peoples of both the countries.
The Information Minister said a new era began in Pakistan-China relationship. He said this everlasting and all weather friendship stood the test of times.
The Information Minister said security of the Chinese nationals is our priority.
Attaullah Tarar said the economy is heading in the right direction with inflation and current account deficit coming down. He said our foreign exchange reserves are now sufficient for two months of imports.
