KARACHI:
The Union of Small and Medium Enterprises (UNISAME) has insisted on redefining the role of chambers of commerce and urged modernisation on the basis of furthering businesses of its members and advocacy of their cause.
Various chambers of commerce and industries need to do more for their SME members and advocate their cause for priority and facilitation to fast track promotion to face global challenges, said UNISAME experts.
UNISAME President Zulfikar Thaver said the micro- to medium-sized entrepreneurs form the majority membership in all the chambers of commerce and industries and by virtue of their strength deserve the best attention of the committee members of the chambers, but unfortunately they are not given the best attention.
