She disclosed that the Government is planning to set up a national education council where the industrialists from every district will be given a representation. She made it clear that the government is determined to set up five separate centers of technical education for boys and girls at every district level. It will result in an improvement of the products at the national level besides keeping the prices at a moderate level. She acknowledged the fact, without reserve, that a common skilled worker of the country is doing a great job and if he is provided with the advanced technology in accordance with the modern demands, he can work wonders and boost the image of Pakistan over here as well as abroad.

After concluding her visit to the 4th Industrial Exhibition, Mrs. Zubaida Jalal along with the Members of GCCI proceeded to the Shelton Hotel where she was offered shields for gracing the occasion. Later, she was served HI-TEA by the GCCI Members.
