“We are going to start this service in the larger national interest and are working with ministries to make this possible,” he added. Mr Michael said the Ministry of Ports and Shipping would provide all possible help to Federal Investigation Agency (FIA), Anti-Narcotics Force (ANF), Federal Board of Revenue (FBR), Ministry of Foreign Affairs and other departments concerned at Karachi and Gwadar ports. Regarding requirements of Iranian side, the minister said that it would be better for the governments of the two countries to sign a document for executing the project. “It was the priority of the government to provide maximum security to Zaireen and it would be discussed thoroughly.”
