00:00:00And God willing, this exhibition will be one of the
00:00:04best exhibitions among
00:00:07all the exhibitions that have been held. You yourself have seen
00:00:10and observed what a good exhibition
00:00:14this will be and what a good achievement it will
00:00:17have in the B2B meetings. We won't take up too much time. Thank you to all
00:00:21the friends.
00:00:23دوستان.
00:00:30Mr. Mullah Sahib Jahan, thank you. And now
00:00:34it's time for our dear journalists
00:00:37to ask questions from Mr. Ahmad
00:00:41Shakil Hazem, Deputy of Policy and
00:00:45Technical Affairs of Afghanistan Chamber of Commerce and Investment. We invite him
00:00:48to provide more information regarding the preparations
00:00:52and answer the journalists' questions.
00:00:54بدن.
00:01:39of our dear colleagues, I must mention
00:01:42that the fifth Imam Abu Hanifa
00:01:45(may Allah have mercy on him) exhibition is one of a kind and
00:01:49a national brand of ours that
00:01:52all traders,
00:01:55industrialists, and investors, in cooperation with the respected
00:01:58media,
00:02:02should help in informing the people of Afghanistan in this regard.
00:02:05As it was discussed, we
00:02:09had shared invitations
00:02:13to 50 countries,
00:02:16and we received positive responses from 20
00:02:19countries. The countries that have the most participation in this exhibition
00:02:22are, as the esteemed president said,
00:02:26Iran, which requested approximately 13350
00:02:30square meters of area from us,
00:02:33and its contract has been signed. Also, Uzbekistan
00:02:37requested 500 square meters
00:02:40of area from us. Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan, also requested
00:02:44large areas from us. India,
00:02:46Turkey, and Russia,
00:02:49in addition to showcasing their
00:02:52products in Afghanistan, will also send very
00:02:55large business delegations
00:02:59to Afghanistan for this Imam Abu Hanifa exhibition. This is an opportunity
00:03:03for Afghan traders, industrialists, and investors
00:03:07to take advantage of this opportunity and sign
00:03:10important and large trade agreements and contracts.
00:03:13Furthermore,
00:03:17political stability and security have enabled us, as
00:03:21our colleagues mentioned, to
00:03:24achieve self-sufficiency in
00:03:27domestic production in the near future.
00:03:30The current
00:03:33government, the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan, has developed
00:03:37numerous policies, all of which
00:03:40are trade-oriented, export-oriented,
00:03:43and support domestic production.
00:03:47These policies, in addition to
00:03:50that, the trips that the
00:03:54Director General of the Afghanistan Chamber of Commerce and Investment
00:03:57made to various countries, including Uzbekistan,
00:04:01Kyrgyzstan, India, and Turkey,
00:04:04all had the goal of attracting foreign investment
00:04:07to Afghanistan. You are aware that
00:04:11we have held numerous business networking
00:04:15or B2B programs during the past
00:04:18year, and
00:04:21all of these
00:04:24lead to our traders and the traders
00:04:27of regional and international countries becoming interested
00:04:31in investing in Afghanistan. Afghanistan
00:04:35is a country with immense and unique opportunities
00:04:38in the agricultural, commercial,
00:04:42industrial, mining, and electricity sectors,
00:04:46and other areas. Therefore,
00:04:48we expect that the Imam Abu Hanifa exhibition,
00:04:52based on the measures taken, the trips made,
00:04:55and the agreements signed, will be
00:04:58one
00:05:01of the unique and unprecedented exhibitions at the national
00:06:42Based on the information we have, approximately 50%
00:06:45of the contracts that have been concluded have been implemented.
00:06:48These memorandums of understanding have been converted into contracts,
00:06:52and the trade relations we have with the countries in the region
00:06:55today, a very
00:06:57good example of which
00:07:00is Uzbekistan, where our trade has grown from 350
00:07:03million dollars to over 1.8 billion dollars.
00:07:07And this also shows that today, various
00:07:10countries are interested. Although most of
00:07:14it was imports, but today,
00:07:18in addition to considering the import sector,
00:07:21Afghanistan's exports have also increased
00:07:25to various countries.
00:07:28We cannot definitively say how many
00:07:31percent. Well, over 50 percent, approximately over
00:07:3550 percent of these contracts and memorandums of understanding
00:07:38have been converted into contracts.
00:08:42It's not that we only showcase technology or medicine in this
00:08:46exhibition. All products, all the products that Afghanistan
00:08:49has today, are exhibited, both from
00:08:53construction and from manufacturing, and industrial
00:08:56and mining. Also in this exhibition, in addition
00:09:00to showcasing our industries,
00:09:04it is an opportunity for
00:09:06our traders and also international
00:09:10traders. They also showcase their products.
00:09:13This is not limited to one sector; it covers
00:09:16all sectors. Mr. Hasani gave an example regarding
00:09:20the industries that have been exhibited.
00:09:24But so far, more than 800 booths have been sold,
00:09:27and we have reached
00:09:30the point where
00:09:34we probably cannot have more booths.
00:09:37Regarding what
00:09:40product
00:09:43is specific, we do not consider
00:09:46such a thing because the Afghanistan Chamber of Commerce and Investment
00:09:49is a national institution that represents
00:09:52all sectors and does not make any distinction
00:09:56or difference between manufacturing
00:10:00and commercial sectors.
00:10:19external investment in Afghanistan. How much has it increased since last
00:10:23year until now?
00:10:37In addition to showcasing our products, we
00:10:39should be able to attract foreign investment.
00:10:43And for this reason, we showcase opportunities
00:10:46in all sectors. From the government
00:10:50agencies, we will have presentations, video
00:10:53graphics in the exhibition,
00:10:56and they will be published. Also, we will have
00:11:00a booth from each sector where they will present
00:11:03their products and their capacities
00:11:06and opportunities.
00:11:10Attracting foreign investment requires a series
00:11:13of long-term measures. For example,
00:11:17among them is a guarantee
00:11:21that when a foreign investor wants to invest in Afghanistan,
00:11:25they need a definite guarantee as to whether
00:11:28these significant changes that we have experienced
00:11:32in the last 50 are considered
00:11:34a kind of threat. For this
00:11:38reason, the exact figure is not available to us, but
00:11:42there have been joint ventures with our domestic sectors,
00:11:45a large number, especially from Uzbekistan,
00:11:49and we are not only attracting
00:11:52investment; we are also considering the transfer of technology
00:11:55and expertise through this exhibition, so that both technology
00:11:59and expertise are transferred to Afghanistan. Thank you.
00:12:55Sahib, the media of
00:12:58our country. Today, we are
00:13:01on the eve of the fifth
00:13:04Imam Abu Hanifa exhibition. It is a great
00:13:08pleasure that this
00:13:11institution of the Afghanistan International Exhibition
00:13:14is also celebrating its fifth year with the holding of this
00:13:17Imam Abu Hanifa exhibition.
00:13:20This Afghanistan International Exhibition
00:13:23is linked with the name of Imam
00:13:27Abu Hanifa (may Allah have mercy on him) and started with this name.
00:13:30And we, representing
00:13:34the Afghanistan International Exhibition, are trying
00:13:38our best to organize
00:13:41this brand of Imam Abu Hanifa in the best possible way,
00:13:45in a very good way.
00:13:48The brand of Imam Abu Hanifa is the
00:13:52international trade brand of Afghanistan. As Mr. Azam said,
00:13:56it is not limited to one sector.
00:13:59It is the only exhibition that covers
00:14:02all domestic and foreign sectors of Afghanistan.
00:14:06It is the only sector, the only brand
00:14:09that all foreign and
00:14:12domestic sectors can participate in
00:14:15and take part in this exhibition. And I
00:14:19can also say that a large number of foreigners,
00:14:22regional and supra-regional countries,
00:14:25have contacted us, and
00:14:29even, as the Afghanistan Chamber of Commerce may
00:14:32have informed you, we don't have
00:14:35any halls to give to foreign brands.
00:14:39There is so much interest in this brand.
00:14:42And we, representing the Afghanistan
00:14:46International Exhibition, are trying our best to organize
00:14:49this exhibition in such a way that its name has become extraordinary
00:14:52in Afghanistan, in a fundamental and extraordinary way.
00:16:35After the nights of three decades of democracy,
00:16:39the shining sun of the Islamic Emirate has risen
00:16:42in our land. The flowers of
00:16:46hope have bloomed again in the hearts of our people,
00:16:50and everywhere the talk is of freedom,
00:16:53happiness, and prosperity. In
00:16:57Herat province, the city of knowledge, struggle,
00:17:01soldiers, and students have gathered
00:17:04together. And with one voice,
00:17:07under one flag, they raise the call
00:17:11of Islam, independence, and progress.
00:17:14دهد.
00:17:22In this gathering, the identity of the Muslim
00:17:25soldier was introduced. A soldier
00:17:29whose historical roots are linked to the battles
00:17:32of the Prophet and other
00:17:35mujahideen
00:17:38whose moral and intellectual identity is derived
00:17:42from the Quran and the Sunnah of the Messenger
00:17:45of Allah, may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him. A soldier
00:17:49who is fully sincere and committed to his religion
00:17:52and his people. The Muslim
00:17:55soldier,
00:17:59the soldier of Islam,
00:18:00is
00:18:03not negligent, not
00:18:05enslaved.
00:20:16Today, our people have realized the truth
00:20:20and have recognized their true
00:20:23children. And they will never
00:20:27be deceived by the plots of the enemies of Islam
00:20:30and our people's security.
00:20:32خورند.
00:21:08Today, the love of the main flag
00:21:11of our land has taken root in the hearts of all our
00:21:15people from all walks of life.
00:21:18Our
00:21:20Muslim people know well that this
00:21:23flag is the flag of the Messenger
00:21:26of Allah, may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him.
00:21:29It is the flag of honor
00:21:32and dignity. It is the flag
00:21:34of true humanity. It is the flag of truth
00:21:38and justice. It is a flag under
00:21:41whose shade the happiness of this world and the hereafter
00:21:44for humans is realized.
00:21:47From you
00:22:21the pen of knowledge, and the righteousness of the Muslim soldier
00:22:25is the strong pillar of the honor
00:22:28and prosperity of our land. Whenever
00:22:32the people of knowledge and our Muslim soldiers
00:22:35join hands and move towards
00:22:38a single goal in a single direction,
00:22:42the shining of our land as a free
00:22:46and advanced country in the
00:22:49sky of culture and civilization
00:22:52is an inevitable matter.
00:23:15The scattering of flowers by a student
00:23:18upon the Muslim soldier of his land,
00:23:22the tying of a book to the hands of the
00:23:25Muslim soldier, on the back of the student,
00:23:29and the donation of educational materials to him
00:23:32demonstrates the strong commitment that these
00:23:36two make for the preservation of Afghanistan's
00:23:39independence and progress.
00:23:41بندند.
00:26:02I have no sorrow,
00:26:06this was my desire.
00:26:09May I be a mourner for the enemy,
00:26:13may I be a mourner for the enemy.
00:26:15My Takbir is the revolution,
00:26:19the enemy is left with no way
00:26:21forward or backward.
00:26:25By the blessing of our faith,
00:26:28by the blessing of our faith.
00:26:32I am also a fist of steel,
00:26:35I am the adornment of religion.
00:26:38My life is sacrificed in the way
00:26:40of truth. I am in the way
00:26:44of this religion. This is my way as long as
00:26:47I have life and body. This
00:26:51is my way as long as
00:26:55I have life and body.
00:26:56باشمها
00:28:32The enemy of Islam should be prepared in such a way that they are afraid of our
00:28:35strength, determination, and resources. These are also the
00:28:39Aryans, meaning they should be afraid
00:28:40of the enemy
00:28:43attacking Islam or Muslims. But it is a pity that many
00:28:47Muslims, due to the neglect
00:28:50of infidels, to Muslims while
00:28:54ک
