KARACHI, Feb 20: The Korean firm, Daewoo, will start plying its modern bus service on Karachi – Hyderabad route from June 1. A written undertaking has been given by the company in this regard to the Sindh government.

A five-member delegation led by the chief executive of the company, Chang Il Kim, on Tuesday held a meeting with Sindh Transport Minister Adil Siddiqui and gave the assurance to ply Daewoo buses on Karachi-Hyderabad within next three months.

The city government has agreed to provide a three acre plot near Sohrab Goth to set up its bus terminal to facilitate the company to start its bus service.

The transport minister welcomed the Daewoo’s interest in Sindh and said the need for changing transport culture in Sindh was being felt since long and for this purpose the government would provide all possible facilities to this sector.

He asked the company to also chalk out a plan to ply its buses within the city.
