MULTAN: Foreign Minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi Sunday said the incumbent government would provide maximum facilities to traders as their role was vital to strengthen national economy.
He expressed these views in a ceremony, organised in his honour by traders here. The effective measures taken by the government were now yielding positive results and the economy was improving day by day, he said and added that when they came to power, the country was facing budget and trade deficit, and the stock market was also facing problems.
Qureshi said the government took decisions to put the economy on the right track and traders underwent some burden due to the decisions. However, he added, the government would provide facilities to them now.
He said instructions had been given to diplomats to play their role for bringing investment in the country, and added that economic diplomacy had been focus of the government lately.
Central Chairman of Tanzim-e-Tajiran Pakistan Khwaja Suleman Siddique said the government had suspended condition of computerised national identity card (CNIC) after talks between the business community and the government.
He demanded that Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) procedure should be made easier to collect maximum tax and suggested making a committee to settle issues of small traders.
