Speaking at the opening ceremony of a four-day 2024 Taizhou International Automobile Industry Expo, he said Taizhou’s pivotal role as a trailblazer in China’s automobile industry and praised the city’s innovative achievements and its substantial contributions to the global market.
Highlighting the importance of technological collaboration, Shehzad emphasized the potential for groundbreaking advancements in automotive technology through joint efforts between Pakistani and Chinese enterprises. “Such collaboration can drive significant strides in knowledge sharing, capacity building, and sustainable practices within the industry,” he said, as reported by China Economic Net on Thursday.
He further stressed the need for a comprehensive framework of cooperation encompassing research and development, manufacturing, and market access. “By working together, we can shape a future where clean, efficient, and sustainable mobility solutions are accessible to all,” he added.
