Last year, another Chinese company agreed to establish first intra-city bus manufacturing company of Pakistan in Karachi, paving way for availability of the buses at cheaper rates in the country.
The development was announced by Memon after he met the country manager of the bus company where it was decided that manufacturing plant will be established in next 20 months on an 18-acre land and the plant will produce 500 buses annually.
“Establishing a public transport manufacturing plant is our top priority and we wanted to begin the project as early as possible,” Memon said.
