PM vows to establish Jinnah Medical Complex of global standards

ISLAMABAD: Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif said that Jinnah Medical Complex would be developed as a tertiary care hospital meeting international standards.

During a review meeting on Jinnah Medical Complex and Research Center, he directed that all the measures related to the construction of the complex should be completed within the stipulated period of time.

The meeting was presented with the concept design of the complex prepared by the Chinese company Hongkong-AOHUA.

The company which has over 30 years of experience in designing more than 1,000 hospitals, prepared the concept design of the hospital free of cost.

The participants were given a detailed overview of the hospital’s design.

The prime minister observed that a Chinese company prepared a world-class concept design for a hospital in Pakistan without any compensation which was a clear testament to the strong Pak-China friendship and growing people-to-people ties.

“We are deeply grateful to the leadership of the Chinese company and every individual involved in the design process,” he said, adding this gift from the Chinese company would always be remembered by the government, the people of Pakistan, and those who would get treatment in this hospital.

The prime minister desired that a technical review of the design prepared by the Chinese company be conducted. He further directed that the complex should be digitized and artificial intelligence should be incorporated.

The prime minister opined that it was encouraging that the concept design included comprehensive planning to deal with any future epidemics or emergencies.

“Environmental protection, water conservation, and efficient resource usage must be prioritized in the project,” he stressed.

The prime minister also expressed satisfaction over the inclusion of solar energy, effective use of natural light, water recycling, and greenery in the design.

Instructions were also issued, during the meeting, to digitally connect the Jinnah Medical Complex with other hospitals in Islamabad.
