He said that this would provide an opportunity to our members to discuss the matters of mutual interest particularly related to facilitate trade and industry with the view to enhance investment, increase production, boost exports, and curtail imports, Elaborating the rationale behind the move, Syed Mazhar Ali Nasir said, "Although a few days have remained in the upcoming election of 2018, yet none of the political parties have truly outlined its economic agenda".

It is axiomatic that the economic challenges for the next elected government will be tougher than the recently out-going democratic government, he added. Therefore, the Federation of Pakistan Chambers of Commerce & Industry (FPCCI), an apex trade body of Pakistan, consisting of 210 Trade Bodies including local Chambers of Commerce & Industry and Trade Associations across Pakistan, has initiated a programme to invite the country's top political party leaders to discuss their economic agenda and other national issues, the SVP of FPCCI concluded.
