巴基斯坦纺织服装出口额可能达到150亿美元
在本财政年度剩余期间，巴基斯坦纺织品和服装的出口可能会升至150亿美元，根据巴基斯坦纺织厂协会(APTMA)，其主席Syed Ali Ahsan最近赞赏该国政府承认出口部门并向五个零税率的部门提供区域竞争力的能源。
据巴基斯坦媒体报道，APTMA首席执行官戈哈尔•伊贾兹表示，由于能源价格具有竞争力，1月份纺织品出口同比增长8.5%。
他说，每年价值35亿美元的纱线和织物出口可能会使纺织品的总出口增加到140亿美元。
他敦促政府建立一个棉花生产工作队，以实现1500万包的目标，并确保其加强性、可持续性、取得高产棉花技术并提供农业推广服务。
他说，政府应该清算所有纺织行业退还的销售税、所得税以及政策和一揽子措施。
他补充称，应建立综合性的纺织和服装园区，迫切需要成立一个特别工作组来恢复关闭工厂的生产。
