AMMAN — Chairman of the Amman Chamber of Commerce Khalil Haj Tawfiq on Friday stressed the need to boost pan-Arab economic cooperation and integration, according to the Jordan News agency, Petra. This effort should be led by the private sector with support from the governments of the Arab countries, he noted as he was speaking at the conclusion of the 17th Turkish-Arab Economic Cooperation Summit that was held in Istanbul.

He noted that the Arab private sector is "professionally and morally obliged" to achieve pan-Arab economic integration, especially under the difficult circumstances facing the situation of food security. He called for a "special meeting" to be held in the Kingdom for representatives of the Arab private sectors to unify efforts and achieve integration, where each country should identify investment opportunities and benefits within clear plans to be adopted by all states.
