The decision to this effect was reached at the meeting of Sindh Cabinet chaired by Chief Minister Murad Ali Shah. The cabinet meeting was informed that the indigenous production of the edible oil would be highly beneficial for the economy of the country. Every year Pakistan spends $3.150 billion to import 4.50 million tonnes of edible oil for its cooking needs. Bringing palm oil from the Southeast Asian countries is the second highest expense for the Pakistani economy after the import of petroleum products.
