The agreement, signed at the Embassy of Pakistan in Riyadh, marks a pivotal collaboration aimed at exporting skilled Pakistani labor to contribute to Saudi Arabia’s ambitious infrastructure and development projects.
The agreement was formalized by Mr. Jawad Sohrab Malik, Special Assistant to the Prime Minister, at a ceremony attended by key representatives from both nations.
