The head of the Pakistan Leather Garments Manufacturers and Exporters Association (PLGMEA), Fawad Ijaz Khan, has invited the US Ambassador to Pakistan, Ms Wendy Chamberlin, to visit a leather garment factory in Karachi.

In a statement he said that he hoped the visit would restore the confidence of US buyers and consumers in leather garments made in Pakistan. He also backed the US government in its war against terrorism in Afghanistan. However, he pointed out that the war has seriously affected the production and export of leather garments from Pakistan - especially to the US - with fewer orders being placed and others being cancelled.
