He said political leaders, government officials from relevant institutions and representatives of stakeholders and others would be invited to the conference.
He said a joint economic roadmap would be designed during this important moot.
“Khyber Pakhtunkhwa was blessed with abundant natural resources, despite availability of oil, gas and electricity and other reserves why our province is lagging behind as compared to the other federating units in the journey of progress, Mr Ishaq added.
The chamber president said traders and industrialists are in great trouble in the prevailing circumstances whereas jobs were unavailable to our talented and highly- qualified youth. He said economic growth and prosperity would only come with flourishing business, industries and trade.
The Chamber president urged government and authorities concerned to take pragmatic steps to mitigate business community sufferings and facilitate them, because when traders and industrialists would be prosperous then business and trade could be enhanced, consequently further employment opportunities would be generated in the province and provincial economy would also be stabilized and strengthened.
