And now, the Chairman of John Menzies (the holding company of Menzies Aviation) has just met with PM Imran Khan to discuss the scope of tourism in Pakistan.
The PM has been very appreciative of the interest shown by international firms in the establishment of tourism and aviation services in Pakistan. He believes that the country is blessed with an abundance of natural attractions that can further be developed into world-class tourism hotspots in an environmentally friendly and sustainable manner.
