Saudi Crown Prince Mohammad bin Salman bin Abdulaziz on Tuesday telephoned Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf Chairman Imran Khan and congratulated him on his party's victory in the general election.

During the telephonic conversation, the Saudi crown prince said Pakistan had vast trade and economic opportunities and the kingdom was keen to make investments in the country and strengthen the bilateral trade relations, read a statement issued by the PTI's media department.

Imran Khan mentioned the effective anti-corruption drive carried out in the kingdom under the supervision of Crown Prince Salman and said that true and effective governance was possible only through the elimination of corruption.

The PTI's government would benefit from the experiences of the Saudi crown prince in this regard, Imran Khan was quoted as saying.

Imran Khan also expressed his determination to further strengthen the brotherly relations between Pakistan and Saudi Arabia.

The leaders from the two countries will also visit each other's country soon, the statement concluded.
