Chairman KPT Syedain Raza Zaidi highlighted the evolution of Karachi Port into Pakistan’s premier maritime gateway since its establishment in 1886. He emphasized the port’s strategic importance in regional trade, facilitating 60% of the nation’s trade, and its commitment to modernizing operations to meet international standards. Chairman KPT proudly noted the recent docking of the MSC ANNA, the largest ship ever to arrive in Pakistan, as a testament to the port’s capabilities. He reaffirmed dedication to sustainability and innovation in the maritime sector, urging collaboration for a prosperous future.

Secretary-General Velasco praised Pakistan’s commitment to maritime sustainability and acknowledged the Ministry of Maritime Affairs’ initiatives to explore new avenues for cooperation. He encouraged Pakistan to actively engage in global maritime efforts, stressing the significance of protecting transboundary species, minimizing ship pollution, and addressing plastic waste. Velasco advocated for the adoption of green maritime corridors and the use of alternative fuels, such as methanol.

Recognizing the challenges faced by Pakistan’s maritime industry, including a shortage of qualified seafarers, Velasco noted the vast opportunities for growth, given that 90% of global trade is conducted via sea routes. He urged the nation to enhance efficiency, sustainability, and develop a comprehensive action plan to elevate maritime trade.

In closing, Velasco commended Pakistan’s hospitality and reiterated the importance of ongoing collaboration with the IMO to modernize ship recycling practices. He encouraged the government to bolster the maritime economy and create more growth opportunities. Subsequently, the Secretary-General of the IMO witnessed Karachi Port operations, the KPT Hospital, and the KPT Head Office, where he attended a cultural program hosted by the Karachi Port Trust.
