Pakistan is looking to advance its automotive industry by incorporating ethanol fuel, ensuring engine compatibility for local vehicles, and boosting the use of locally produced auto parts.
These plans were discussed during a meeting between Haroon Akhtar Khan, Special Assistant to the Prime Minister (SAPM) for Industries and Production, and Hiroshi Kawamura, CEO of Pak Suzuki.
Haroon Akhtar Khan underscored Pakistan’s commitment to bio-gas and electric vehicle initiatives, and noted that Pakistan and Japan can jointly explore new industrial opportunities, particularly in the realm of green energy projects.
According to a press release, Pak Suzuki’s plan to establish a biogas plant in Manga Mandi near Lahore was commended for contributing to Pakistan’s renewable energy goals. Haroon Akhtar Khan emphasized Pakistan’s position as a sizable market for Pak Suzuki and advocated for continued collaboration in the auto sector.
The talks align with the government’s “Uraan” vision for eco-friendly vehicles and represent another step in strengthening industrial ties between Pakistan and Japan. Hiroshi Kawamura, while congratulating Haroon Akhtar Khan on his new role, conveyed optimism about further enhancing economic and technological cooperation between the two nations.
