According to Pakistan Daily Times reported on April 7th, Mirza, a consultant in Pakistan's Government textile industry (Mirza), delivered a speech at the opening ceremony of the Sixth Asian textile exhibition held in Karachi. The textile industry of the major textile exporting countries in the world has experienced a rapid expansion in recent years, and the momentum of development has obviously slowed down. This has provided an opportunity for the development of Pakistan textile industry, which has been growing at a low speed.

　　據(jù)統(tǒng)計，2005—07年期間各主要紡織生產(chǎn)國紡織業(yè)增長速度如下：孟加拉國14%、香港17%、印度19%、越南27%、中國大陸29%，而巴基斯坦僅增長2%。為促進巴紡織業(yè)進一步發(fā)展，米扎建議政府對紡織機械進口實施零關(guān)稅和引進生產(chǎn)國際知名品牌服裝。

At present, the textile industry is a pillar industry of Pakistan's economy, accounting for 60% of the total exports of Pakistan, employing 38% of the entire manufacturing industry.
