LAHORE: Several Turkish investors have agreed to invest in radio-cabs in the Punjab at a meeting with Chief Minister Shehbaz Sharif on Wednesday.

The delegation of Turkish investors briefed chief minister about features of the radio-cab and said it would greatly benefit the transport sector in the province.

Addressing to the delegation, the chief minister said several Turkish companies had already invested in infrastructure, energy and waste management projects in the Punjab.

He said waste management had improved across the province due to the cooperation of Turkish companies. He said brotherly relations between the two countries had resulted in an economic partnership.

He said the people of the Punjab welcomed Turkish investment, adding that the provincial government would facilitate the projects.

He said the Metro Bus was a good example of successful projects launched with Turkish cooperation.

The Turkish delegation, led by Mustafa Albarak, also discussed energy projects and waste management ventures. The Lahore commissioner was also present at the meeting.

A word "Radio" for booking a cab over a phone call i suppose.

As they dont offer anything else other than pick//drop at you desired location after booking it through phone call.

Yeah but Radio Taxis are losing market share heavily and steadily to Ola and Uber in India.

From running all over the city, they are now mostly limited to Airports and Railway stations.
I'd wager in another 5 years, Radio Taxis would be gone.
