Referring to huge trade imbalance between Beijing and Islamabad, Chinese Ambassador to Pakistan Sun Weidong on Monday said that Pakistan is not producing the goods needed in China.
According to The Express Tribune, Sun Weidong expressed hope that the situation will change when Chinese companies start producing such products from Pakistani soil.
“Pakistan can enhance its exports to $35 billion for which serious efforts are needed,” Sun Weidong said during his meeting with Federation of Pakistan Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FPCCI) President Zubair Tufail and Coordination Committee Chairman Malik Sohail Hussain.
The Chinese Ambassador also clarified that contrary to media speculations, not a single Chinese company would be allowed to install used machinery in Pakistan and transfer of technology would be a prerequisite.
Sun Weidong, however, added that the security of economic zones must be ensured so that Chinese experts working in Pakistan could feel safe.
