The largest port and logistics operator in the world, DP World, has announced that it has appointed Pakistani celebrity and longtime UAE resident Fakhar-e-Alam to the position of vice chairman to oversee its multibillion-dollar investment strategy in Pakistan.
Alam’s love for Pakistan and his positive role in encouraging investment in Pakistan during these difficult times were highlighted in particular by DP Global in its news announcement.
Alam expressed his gratitude to the leadership of DP World, His Highness Sheikh Mohammed, the ruler of Dubai, His Excellency Sultan Ahmed Bin Sulayem, and others for giving him this opportunity after learning of his new position.
“I look forward to strengthening the economic ties between Pakistan and the UAE and elsewhere.”
The difficulties Pakistan faces call for unconventional solutions and a significantly more progressive attitude toward investors like DP World.
“Together, we can generate enormous wealth and value that will ultimately benefit Pakistan’s citizens and expand trade throughout the region.”
The crown jewel business of Dubai, DP World, is growing and has a current market value of about $90 billion. Sultan Ahmed Bin Sulayem, a very vivacious and passionate chairman, is in charge of running it.
