This was stated by the wind farm project director Korea Electric Power Company (KEPCO) Lee Jin Hee during a meeting which discussed the preparation of feasibility report and allotment of land at Sindh Board of Investment (SBI) here on Thursday.

Secretary Investment Sindh and DG SBI Yonus Dagha presided over the meeting which was attended by CEO Alternate Energy Development Board Arif Alauddin, Choi Soo Young of KEPCO and Korean diplomat Seo Ho Jin.
