LAHORE: The Lahore Chamber of Commerce and Industry (LCCI) has urged the Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) and anti-narcotics departments to use modern technology to check export goods at Karachi port.
In a statement issued , LCCI Vice President Syed Mahmood Ghaznavi said that the Lahore Chamber of Commerce and Industry had received a number of complains that the FBR and anti-narcotics departments are causing undue damage to the export goods in the name of checking.
He said that officials open the goods for checking but not repack properly which causes heavy damage to the merchandise while traveling and foreign buyers refuse to receive such consignments.
He said that FBR and Anti-Narcotics Department should use latest technology for scanning of exporting products or check the goods in the factories of exporters and properly sealed by the departments. It would not only save the exporters but would also save valuable time.
