A delegation of the Sindh government signed several memorandums of understanding (MoUs) worth $2 billion with different business houses in Scotland, on Tuesday. The delegation was led by Governor Dr Ishratul Ebad and comprised federal and provincial ministers.
Speaking to The Express Tribune, Minister for Youth Affairs Faisal Subzwari said the aim of the delegation was to let the world know that, “Pakistan is open for investment”. Contracts were signed between Scottish business groups, the Government and Port Qasim Authority, KPT, Karachi Metropolitan Corporation and Karachi Water & Sewerage Board. These included solid waste management, a sewerage treatment plan, and a de-salination programme which would provide 100 million gallons of water per day.
