During the meeting, Zhang mentioned that the textile and garment industry chains of China and Pakistan are highly complementary, and the two countries have great potential for cooperation in the cotton industry and trade, China Economic Net (CEN) reported on Wednesday. \u201cAt present, the global supply chain pattern is undergoing significant changes. China and Pakistan can seize this opportunity to collaborate on organizing professional textile and garment exhibitions, trade and investment forums, business matchmaking activities, and entrepreneurial delegation exchanges,\u201d added Zhang. Gohar Ejaz stated that the textile industry accounts for over 60% of Pakistan\u2019s total exports and holds great significance for the country\u2019s economic development. Pakistan offers a superior investment environment and unique advantages in terms of natural resources, manpower, location, market access, infrastructure, and government incentives. \u201cThe Pakistani government places great importance on promoting cooperation and development in the textile industry between Pakistan and China. It has established a special investment promotion committee headed by the Caretaker Prime Minister to provide strong support for overseas investors looking to invest in Pakistan,\u201d said Gohar. It\u2019s notable that Pakistan\u2019s Export Advisory Council held its inaugural meeting under the chairmanship of Gohar last Friday.
