Lahore: Pakistani and Chinese authorities this week discussed proposals to build a five-star hotel here.

China Machinery Engineering Corporation (CMEC) held high-level discussions with key stakeholders, including representatives from the Ravi Urban Development Authority (RUDA) and the Punjab Central Business District Authority.

“The proposals for prestigious 5-star hotels, with a proposed land requirement ranging from 5 to 7 acres were discussed,” said an official statement.

Both sides agreed to commitment to enhance collaboration through the exchange of detailed project information for long-term partnership and sustainable development initiatives.

A parallel dialogue was also held for collaborative endeavors at the Oriental Youhong headquarters in Beijing.

Representatives from RUDA and PCBDA engaged with Oriental Youhong – the leading Chinese corporation renowned for its expertise in solar panel manufacturing and construction solutions.

RUDA delegation comprised ADM CEO Yasir Malik, Pakistan China Commerce Alliance President Guo XiaoQi, Director BD IR Fatima Ali Khan, and Assistant Director PR Sana Iqbal.

Both sides discussed avenues for setting up an Electric Vehicle (EV) charging factory and upscale hotels within RUDA’s jurisdiction and a manufacturing plant in RUDA’s Industrial State – with a planned land requirement of 40 acres.

The Chinese side held detailed discussions on technology transfer agreements and land acquisition slated for the next meetings.

Separately, a team of technical experts also visited the Zoomlines heavy industry complex where different types of earth-moving machinery, cranes, smog busters, sprinkler vehicles, and municipal sweepers were shown to Pakistani delegates.
