The new facilities and infrastructure are expected to create numerous job opportunities, boost the local economy, and improve the overall quality of life for the residents of Gwadar.
In his statement, he expressed optimism about Gwadar’s future, noting that with continuous support and development, it will become a major hub for trade and industry, attracting investments from around the world. This transformation is expected to have a positive impact on the entire region, making Gwadar a symbol of progress and development.
