LAHORE: The Pakistan-China Joint Chamber of Commerce and Industry (PCJCCI) has planned to attract Chinese investment in the eight potential industrial sectors, including furniture, handicrafts, textile, fertilisers, cement, glasswork, energy and pharmaceuticals.
PCJCCI President Shah Faisal Afridi and other office-bearers discussed the future plans at a monthly review meeting held on Wednesday.
Addressing the meeting, Afridi emphasised to lay down a long-term strategy to maintain a sustainable process
for paving the way for joint ventures between Pakistan
