Following Tuesday's announcement on the strike in Pakistan, representatives of the Air Cargo Agents Association of Pakistan (ACAAP) and Pakistan International Freight Forwarders Association (PIFFA) met up with government representatives and both sides have reached an agreement.

In the agreed arrangement, a committee headed by Mr Haroon Akhtar, Special Assistant to Prime Minister, comprising PIFFA and ACAAP representatives and chartered accounts will be formed to resolve the dispute over Turnover Tax within the next week.

In view of the Government's assurance, both PIFFA and ACAAP have called off the strike. Normal business operations will resume with immediate effect.
