ISLAMABAD: Speaker National Assembly (NA) Asad Qaiser on Monday assured that he would raise his voice at every relevant forum, including the National Assembly, for further extension in the construction package so that more investors could benefit from it.
He said that construction projects like Gulberg Green Islamabad should be started in other provinces, including Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) to provide better lifestyle to the people.
He expressed these views while addressing as chief guest at a ceremony organized by the Gulberg Green Islamabad. Islamabad Chamber of Commerce and Industry (ICCI) President Muhammad Shakeel Munir, Senior Vice President Jamshed Akhtar Sheikh and others were present on the occasion.
Speaking at the occasion, the ICCI president said that the prime minister had taken a positive step by announcing an amnesty scheme for the construction industry that had given a boost to construction activities.
He urged the government to consider extending this scheme to attract more investment and further urged the government for providing a similar package to other industries to help the industrial sector flourish and economy to improve.
He said that Gulberg Green’s construction projects had provided employment to many people besides promoting business activities.

He said that 11 per cent discount would be given to the members of ICCI in the executive blocks.
