Punjab invites Chinese to invest in sanitation

Author: APP

BEIJING: The Punjab government is planning to organise a roadshow to invite Chinese companies to participate in the restructuring of urban water and sanitation system in the province.

A high-powered delegation from Punjab government including technical and working level teams will present different projects for investment during the roadshow to be held in the last week of this month, a senior official in the Pakistan Embassy confirmed on Thursday.

According to details, Punjab is following a cleaner city policy by improving its municipal solid waste management system. The provincial government authority will invite Chinese firms to help establish a commercial-scale bio gas plant with a capacity to use more than 300 tons of cattle waste per day. The produced biogas will be supplied to SNGPL for distribution to the local community.
