Saudi Ambassador to Pakistan Highlights the visit of King Abdullah to Pakistan
Published in Saudi Press Agency on 02 - 02 - 2007


The Custodian of the Two Holy
Mosques, King Abdullah bin Abdul Aziz, left today for Islamabad from Malaysia to pay a two-day state visit to Pakistan at the invitation of President Pervez Musharraf.
Saudi Ambassador Ali Awadh Asseri told the reporters that during King Abdullah's visit Saudi Arabia and Pakistan would sign five agreements on avoidance of double taxation, vocational training, higher education, science and technology and political consultations.
Pakistan has made massive preparations to receive the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques in a royal manner. President General Pervez Musharraf and Prime Minister Shaukat Aziz will be at the Pakistan Air Force Base Chaklala to receive the king.
Asseri said the visit would greatly contribute to further strengthening of Saudi-Pak fraternal relations, which are going strong with every passing day for the last sixty years.
He said that ministers accompanying the king would discuss with their
Pakistani counterparts a host of issues relating to them to cement cooperation.
The ambassador said that the visit would produce tangible results because Saudi-Pakistan relations are very profound and deep, which cannot be matched with the ties of any two countries of the world.
King Abdullah would hold talks with Musharraf and Shaukat Aziz and grace the state banquet and lunched hosted by them respectively in his honor.
Asseri said he was very much impressed with the huge preparations made by the government and people of Pakistan to accord a historic reception to King Abdullah.
"The visit would be a reaffirmation of the long, historical and fraternal
relations that have existed between the two brotherly countries for almost
six decades now," the ambassador said in a statement he distributed to the
reporters.
He said that this was King Abdullah's second visit to Pakistan in a short span of just over two years, which signifies the importance that he attaches to the relations with brotherly Pakistan. Indeed, it is a special
relationship that does not exist between any other two countries in this
world.
"It is unique, profound and special. It is an extraordinary relationship
that encompasses the parameters of religious, social and cultural domains.
It dates back to the times when Pakistan came into being in 1947 and each
day since then has witnessed a gradual strengthening of this special bond
between our two brotherly countries," Asseri said.
