Govt will engage China to speed up projects under CPEC: Minister

Minister for Planning and Development Ahsan Iqbal says the new coalition government will actively engage China to speed up various projects under China Pakistan Economic Corridor.

Talking to media in Islamabad, he said the government’s top priority is to strengthen the country’s economy as it is the only pre-requisite for its sovereignty.

The Minister said the government will train one hundred thousand youths in the skills of artificial intelligence, automatic robotics, big data cloud, cyber security and applied mathematics in next few years, so that they can become part of the global digital intelligence.
