KARACHI:

Sindh Chief Minister Syed Murad Ali Shah has said that public-private partnership (PPP) in health sector has enabled his government to reach every nook and corner of the province, particularly in the rural areas.

The Indus Hospital & Health Network is our valuable and most hardworking partners and we are planning to further strengthen this partnership. This he said while speaking at the closing ceremony of the sixth biennial ICON 2022, organised by Indus Hospital & Health Network (IHHN) at a local hotel Shah said, "Over the years, I have had a special bond with Indus and always endeavoured to contribute towards this remarkable institution."

Shah added that with the ups and downs during Covid-19, he was able to work closely with Indus and its leadership and always felt proud of the fact that we have the presence of Indus not only in Karachi but across Sindh as well as in Pakistan.

Shah said that he has been informed of the astronomical numbers that the ICON 2022 conference was able to engage over 8,000 people from across the globe.

"This success is exemplary of how Indus is recognised as a national network with international impact and outreach," he said, adding in line with its theme this year, ICON 2022 featured numerous, highly informative workshops and sessions that not only defined the future of healthcare but in fact the core problem in healthcare delivery globally.

Shah extended his sincere gratitude and acknowledged the collaborative efforts of organisers, leaders, experts and guests of ICON 2022 who were behind the success of the conference.

Looking towards the future, Shah said that he proposed to Indus and Dr. Abdul Bari Khan to further strengthen the partnership with the Sindh government for the next conference. The chief minister assured the IHHN that they would receive all the support from his government.
