The National Logistics Cell (NLC) has recorded a significant milestone in bolstering Pakistan’s regional trade ties, with the inaugural commercial consignment from a partner company successfully traversing from Kyrgyzstan via China to Pakistan under a new transit agreement.
This development underscores the efficacy of NLC’s strategic initiatives, which are now yielding tangible outcomes in fostering cross-border commerce, according to a report today.
Consequently, a number of regional nations are increasingly utilising the Khunjerab Pass and Sost Port, solidifying their reputation as a dependable commercial artery.
The newly established conduit grants Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Kazakhstan, and Uzbekistan unhindered ingress to the Karachi port, significantly streamlining their maritime trade.
Pakistan is thus emerging as an expeditious, secure, and reliable transit pathway for these land-constrained Central Asian states, reinforcing its pivotal role in regional economic integration.
