In a groundbreaking move, Pakistan is set to ink two Memorandums of Understanding (MoUs) with Iran, aiming to foster collaboration in the realms of film, cinema, and workforce. This decision, greenlit by the federal cabinet, marks a significant stride in the bilateral relations of the two nations.
The MoUs, scheduled to be signed during the Iranian president’s forthcoming visit to Pakistan, encompass two key areas. The first focuses on the exchange and welfare of skilled workers, while the second aims to enhance cultural ties through joint film production projects.
Under the workforce cooperation MoU, both nations will undertake measures to facilitate the exchange of skilled workers. This initiative not only promises to boost the workforce capabilities of both countries but also paves the way for discussions on establishing a ‘welfare fund’ for these workers.
The second MoU, centered around cultural cooperation, will see Pakistan and Iran embarking on joint film production ventures. This collaboration extends to the exchange of delegations, aimed at gaining insights into each other’s film industries. This cultural exchange is expected to culminate in the hosting of cultural shows, further strengthening the bonds between the two nations.
This development underscores the growing ties between Pakistan and Iran, highlighting their commitment to mutual growth in the workforce sector and the film industry.
