Furthermore, he said the significance of KP has been further increased after the changing regional scenario, which is a gateway to neighboring Afghanistan and Central Asian Republics. He hoped the national economy would be boosted after enhancing mutual trade with Afghanistan and the rest of the regional countries.

Suhail Al Zarooni while speaking on the occasion that Dubai has become economic and trade hub as participation of millions of people in Dubai Expo 2020 was a clear testimony of it. He said the UAE government was taking pragmatic steps to provide facilities to local as well as foreign investors.
