China-Pak coop constructing smart city through AI tech

ISLAMABAD, 05 JUN (DNA) — Tus-Digital Sanitation Group and Imperial Group Limited Pakistan signed a strategic cooperation framework agreement to establish a long-term partnership in Pakistan’s waste treatment service sector, integrating their respective strengths to jointly develop the local solid waste and environmental sanitation market.

The agreement marks a step forward in China-Pakistan environmental cooperation, according to a China Economic Net’s report on Friday. It follows the signing of a memorandum of understanding on Karachi Technology City between TusHoldings and the Pakistani side last month during the China-Pakistan B2B Investment Summit in Hangzhou, which committed both parties to jointly build the “Two Countries, Two Parks” innovation mechanism.

Under the framework, Tus-Digital Sanitation Group provides technological expertise and project experience in environmental technology, solid waste disposal and digital operations, while Imperial Group Limited contributes its local presence and market knowledge in Pakistan.

The two sides will take this cooperation as a point of departure to explore comprehensive collaboration in sanitation operations and resource utilization across Pakistan and the wider Belt and Road markets to jointly build a model green project under CPEC. — DNA
