"Today marks a remarkable day as the business communities in Fiji and Pakistan form a collaboration to build bilateral trade and economic relationships between the private sector, government and various stakeholders."
This was highlighted by Minister for Commerce, Trade, Tourism and Transport, Faiyaz Koya, during the signing of the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between Federation of Pakistan Chamber of Commerce (FPCCI) and Fiji Chamber of Commerce and Industry (FCCI) today (23/08/22).
“Through this MOU both, FPCCI and FCCI will combine efforts in promoting economic activities as well as identifying opportunities for trade, industry, services, investment whilst safeguarding the interest of the domestic stakeholders, such as the micro small and medium enterprises and infant industries,” Minister Koya said.
“There is potential to grow trade between Fiji and Pakistan and this MOU is establishing the business-to-business link to kick start the economic relations.”
Minister Koya said this is the first step to growing relations between the two countries and believed more can still be done to take the mutual relation to another level through focusing on various degrees of enhancing trade and commerce and exploring the way forward.
