Governor Kundi assured the Ambassador of his full support in making the event a success, promising to mobilize the local business community for active participation.<\/p>\n
Governor Kundi also pledged to initiate the “Green Footprint” movement in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa to raise further awareness about climate change. He highlighted the province\u2019s strategic significance as a gateway to Asia and its vast potential for religious tourism rooted in the heritage of the Gandhara civilization.<\/p>\n
