Islamabad
The Overseas Pakistanis Foundation (OPF) Board Governors (BoG), in its 128th meeting, approved establishment of One-Window Facilitation Desks at all major international airports in Pakistan, says a press release.
The facilitation desks would be established on the directives of the Grievance Commissioner for Overseas Pakistanis, Federal Ombudsman.
Addressing the meeting, the Federal Minister for Overseas Pakistanis and Human Resource Development, Pir Syed Saddarudin Shah Rashadi said that Pakistani expatriates are playing vital role in improving the economy of the country and they deserve special attention. He said that provision of more facilities and resolution of problems being faced by overseas Pakistanis is the top most priority of the government. The Minister directed the concerned quarter to gear up their ongoing projects and provide maximum facilities and assistance to Pakistani expatriates and their families.
The board accorded its formal approval to a proposal to link the OPF Housing Scheme Zone-V through the Gulburg Greens Housing and Residentia, a project of Intelligence Bureau Employees Cooperative Housing Society. This link road will not only shorten the distance by many kilometers as presently the OPF scheme is being approached via Japan road, the new link will also increase the market-value of the scheme.
The meeting was held at OPF Head Office and was chaired by Federal Minister for Overseas Pakistanis and Human Resource Development Pir Syed Saddarudin Shah Rashadi.
