Zahid Iqbal Chaudhry further stated that this forum — which featured Muslim countries’ intellectuals, experts, government officials, and representatives from the business community discussing topics such as medical tourism, heritage management, halal tourism, the use of technology, and environmental impacts — would serve as an important milestone in fostering stronger ties among the 57 member countries of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) and in establishing Pakistan as a prominent tourism destination.
