Islamabad – November 14 (Online): Federation of Pakistan Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FPCCI)’s Businessmen Panel on Sunday while showing concern over the small progress and slow pace of development on CPEC stressed the need for expediting the completion of projects associated with the multi-billion-dollar China Pakistan Economic Corridor.
FPCCI’s presidential candidate Irfan Iqbal Sheikh pointed out that the investors were not satisfied with the pace of work on CPEC and no progress on the portfolio was seen during the last three years, calling for measures to advance the CPEC projects, maintaining that the second phase will prove to be instrumental in consolidating Pakistan’s economic development.
He said the strategic cooperative partnership between the two countries has served the fundamental interests of the two allies and contributed to peace, development and stability in the region.
Terming the multi-billion-dollar China Pakistan Economic Corridor project pivotal to accelerating Pakistan’s economic development and regional prosperity, he observed that the expeditious completion of the CPEC projects should be the foremost priority of the government.
