The visit opened avenues for Punjab to collaborate with Chinese industries, particularly in technology transfer and sustainable development.


One of the standout moments was her visit to Jinko Solar Company, a leading global solar panel manufacturer. This engagement highlighted Pakistan’s focus on renewable energy and its commitment to addressing climate challenges.
