Sindh governor urges Memon business community to boost investment in Karachi

According to Profit by Pakistan Today, Sindh Governor Syed Muhammad Nihal Hashmi asked the Memon business community to put more capital into Karachi and elsewhere in the country. He tied greater private-sector activity to job creation, economic growth and better social welfare. The remarks came at the oath-taking ceremony for newly elected office-bearers of the Upleta Memon Association.

Hashmi urged business leaders to pair commercial investment with efforts to broaden schooling, health services and vocational training. He said Karachi still offered room for expansion and described business growth and national development as closely connected. He also pointed to technology and entrepreneurship as routes for young people, encouraging them to build artificial intelligence skills and use the Prime Minister's Youth Programme.

The governor praised the association's welfare work and asked its new leadership to keep transparency and integrity. He also recalled the Memon community's role in the Pakistan Movement and acknowledged the patron, Haji Masood Parekh.
