Khan highlighted Pakistan’ strategic location, a large market and cost-effective and skilled labour.
The delegation also met minister for industry, trade, information and culture of Punjab province Mian Aslam Iqbal, who said China can help raise Pakistan’s exports by relocating export-oriented industries and initiating joint ventures in various fields, according to Pakistani media reports.
