Public Private Partnership model is a key mechanism slated to drive future Sri Lanka-Tajikistan economic relations Industry and Commerce Minister Rishad Bathiudeen said.
Addressing the Tajikistan Business Meeting held with the participation of Tajikistan President Emomali Rahmon at the Cinnamon Grand he said identified areas of bilateral cooperation could be strengthened through public private partnership,” the Minister added.
“Sri Lanka’s trade with Tajikistan is small, but it also shows the huge unexploited trade potential that exists for mutual benefit. “Apart from globally reputed Pure Ceylon Tea, Tajikistan companies can also explore other potential Sri Lankan products such as its world class apparel, ceramics, rubber and coconut products, footwear, Ayurveda products for the keen Tajikistan market that looks for quality global products”.
“The newly identified areas of bilateral cooperation could be strengthened through public private partnership which could greatly improve bilateral trade and investments activities in the future. I am also glad to note that Ceylon Chamber of Commerce and the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Tajikistan have already taken a pioneering initiative in that direction by the MoU signed.”
