  • May 18, 2020 Syed Murad Ali Shah Honourable Chief Minister Sindh
    May 18, 2020 Syed Murad Ali Shah Honourable Chief Minister Sindh CM House, Club Road Karachi Dear Shah Sahib, REOPENING OF INDUSTRIES IN SINDH The Pakistan Business Council (PBC) is a private sector business policy advocacy forum composed of the largest businesses including multinationals operating in Pakistan. Its members contribute nearly 25% of the national tax revenue, generate 40% of annual exports and contribute every 9th rupee to Pakistan’s GDP. Members operate in nearly all sectors of the formal economy and many have a strong presence in Sindh. PBC appreciates the proactive steps taken by your government to contain the spread of the Covid- 19. No doubt countless lives have been saved. We also record our appreciation of the phased and safety driven manner in which your government has allowed economic activity to resume. Many of our members in food, pharmaceutical, iron and steel and export sectors in Sindh have demonstrated a heightened sense of responsibility to safe-work practices. There are anomalies between the sectors allowed to reopen by various provinces. These are working to the detriment of those with manufacturing facilities in Sindh. As a result, the Sindh based units are losing revenue and market share, whilst continuing to pay employees and incur fixed costs. A case in point is electronic appliance manufacturers which have been allowed to reopen in Punjab, whilst those in Sindh are still locked down. PBC urges you to allow industries other than steel, cement and apparel to resume operations, conditional of course to compliance with the SOPs prescribed. Prolonged shutdown carries the risk of permanent closure of some undertakings and the consequent loss of jobs and revenue to the Government of Sindh.

  • The Empowered Women of Rural Sindh
    Note for Record By: Shoaib Sultan Khan January 12, 2018 Subject: - The Empowered Women of Rural Sindh In 2009 when Chief Minister of the province Sindh Syed Qaim Ali Shah approved launching of Union Council Based Poverty Reduction Programme (UCBPRP) for the two poorest districts of Sindh, because of my experience in India of mobilising over 10 million rural women in State of Andhra Pradesh through UNDP and World Bank assistance, I submitted to the Chief Minister that UCBPRP will only work with women. He smiled and observed you may try. The women of Kashmore and Shikarpur responded so enthusiastically and positively that UCBPRP was picked up by European Union in 2015 giving funds to implement empowerment of women in another eight districts, in addition to four districts being funded by the provincial exchequer. This brought the rural women being empowered to over one million. As EU, while initially UCBPRP, renamed Sindh Union Council and Community Economic Strengthening Support Programme (SUCCESS), conveyed to the Provincial Government a message that EU was not a substitute to government and expect remaining districts to be taken up by the provincial government, in 2017 Chief Minister Syed Murad Ali Shah made funds available to cover another six districts by UCBPRP. On January 8, 2018 the launch of the UCBPRP in six districts was organised by Sindh Rural Support Organisation (SRSO) at Sukkur, which was graced by Chairman Pakistan Peoples Party Bilawal Bhutto Zardari, Chief Minister Syed Murad Ali Shah, ex-Chief Minister Syed Qaim Ali Shah and a large number of other distinguished guests including Provincial Page 1 of 5 Ministers, Senators, MNAs, MPAs, Chairman Planning & Development Department, Commissioner Sukkur and provincial and local officials.
