KARACHI: Sindh Chief Minister Syed Murad Ali Shah wants to be considered a man who means business and has now assigned to himself an uphill task: he has decided to develop a system under which business activities would start in the morning and end in early evening hours.
“This habit of starting business day [late] at shops and markets would be brought to an end,” and the system of opening businesses early that operated all over the world would be enforced, he said while addressing a programme organised by the Karachi Chamber of Commerce & Industry (KCCI) at the chamber’s building on Wednesday evening.
Shah, who recently replaced Syed Qaim Ali Shah as the chief executive of the province as part of his ruling Pakistan People’s Party’s plan to prepare itself for the next general elections due in 2018, said that breaking the old habits he, as the chief minister, started his day early in the morning and then his cabinet members and bureaucracy followed suit, and now businessmen and traders had to follow it by opening their shops and markets right in the morning at 9am and then close in the evening by 6 or 7pm.“I need your support for the purpose because I know the actual resistance could come from your side,” he said addressing the office-bearers of the chamber.
