President Alvi acknowledged Karachi\u2019s significant contribution, accounting for nearly 70 percent of Pakistan\u2019s revenue.

He urged a proactive approach to address problems such as malnutrition, stunting, mental stress, and breast cancer. Emphasizing transparency in decision-making, the President stressed that the business community should not only raise concerns but also take concrete actions to resolve them. He further advocated for meritocracy as the cornerstone of the political arena. Governor Sindh, Kamran Khan Tessori, emphasized that Karachi serves as the backbone of the national economy and called for a collaborative effort among all stakeholders to transform the city into a model metropolis in the region. Mr. Faraz ur Rehman, President of KATI, expressed gratitude to President Dr. Arif Alvi for his presence at the ceremony.
