Petroleum traders appreciated the hard work of the Afghanistan Islamic Emirates in regards to providing them with a better security situation for their economic initiatives and added “Change of the regime, stoppage in imports, high cost of currency, and blockage of Shahzada Sarae are the main reasons for high petroleum cost in the country.”
Petroleum traders said that reactivation of the Shahzada Sarae and import of the ample amount of petroleum will result in low cost of petroleum in the country. Furthermore, they shared a number of problems with ACCI and asked ACCI to help provide them with legal solutions.
Besides, welcoming the traders, Mr. Muhmand asked traders of petroleum to provide people of the country with low cost of petroleum and better services and he also asked them to establish an association which could regulate the daily cost of petroleum in cities of the country.
In close coordination with the Minister of Commerce and Industry of the Afghanistan Islamic Emirates Engineer Sayed Akbar Agha and other relevant officials of the Afghanistan Islamic Emirates, Mr. Muhmand promised to take considerable measures in eradicating the existing problems of these traders and provide them with the required facilities.
