The visit of PML-N's Quaid Mian Nawaz Sharif to China and that of Punjab Chief Minister Mian Shahbaz Sharif to Turkey would facilitate new development initiatives in the country, especially in Punjab. Member Punjab Assembly and vice president PML-N Lahore division Shagufta Sheikh said this while talking to media here on Monday.

She said China and Turkey were time-tested sincere friends who always helped in times of need. The MPA said that co-operation of China in field of defence and economics was significant and the visit of Mian Nawaz Sharif would help further strengthen those ties.

She appreciated decision of Turkish government to cooperate in the installation of a 200 MW electricity plant in Punjab, saying that it would help in addressing energy crisis in the province and provide electricity in D G Khan and its adjoining areas. She appreciated that investors of Turkey had expressed their willingness to invest in Punjab on the invitation of Shahbaz Sharif.
