Islamabad, February 27 (INP): Jamal Abdul Qahir has emerged as pioneer of China Pakistan Economic Cooridor (CPEC) due to his outstanding performance, says a report published by Gwadar Pro on Sunday.

Destiny brought Jamal Abdul Qahir and MRDL together from then on.
Graduated from university in 1999, Jamal Abdul Qahir joined MRDL on 26th June, 2003, and worked for MRDL since then. “I decided to join this company because it was the first multinational company to work in Dalbandin District, Chagai, Balochistan.
