ISLAMABAD: UAE Ambassador Hamad Obaid Ibrahim Al-Zaabi on Thursday met with Pakistan’s Chief of Army Staff Gen. Qamar Javed Bajwa in Rawalpindi.
“Matters of mutual interest and UAE-Pakistan Assistance Programme (UPAP) projects under execution in Pakistan were discussed,” the media wing of Pakistan’s military said in a statement.
A memorandum of understanding was signed to continue UPAP projects for social development in remote areas of Pakistan. Al-Zaabi said the Emirati leadership will continue to assist Pakistan in all possible fields.
Last week, with the support of the UAE’s Red Crescent Society, Pakistan’s first hospital to treat diabetes was inaugurated.
In March, Bajwa laid the foundation stone of the desalination plant in the port city of Gwadar, which is supported by the Emirati and Swiss governments.

Saudi-backed Wafi Energy partners with Pakistan’s MG to launch motor oil range
- Deal expands Saudi-owned firm’s footprint in Pakistan’s lubricants market
- Advanced synthetic oils to be distributed through nationwide fuel network
ISLAMABAD: MG JW Automobile Pakistan Pvt. Ltd. has signed a memorandum of understanding with Wafi Energy Pakistan Limited, a subsidiary of Saudi Arabia-based Wafi Energy Holding, to introduce MG Motor Oil in Pakistan, the company said in a statement this month.
The agreement marks another step in the expansion of Saudi private investment in Pakistan’s downstream energy and automotive servicing sectors, following Wafi Energy’s acquisition of Shell Pakistan last year.
“Introducing Advanced Synthetic Technology motor oils 0W-20 SP C5 and 5W-30 SP C3, engineered to meet the demands of modern engines,” the MG statement said.
The company added the products were aimed at “redefining engine performance and ensuring the highest standards of engine protection, efficiency, and reliability for customers.”
Wafi Energy Pakistan Limited, formerly Shell Pakistan Limited, operates one of the country’s largest fuel retail and lubricants networks. Shell plc divested its majority stake in 2024, after which the company was rebranded under Saudi ownership while continuing to market fuels and lubricants under the Shell brand.
The MG partnership allows the Saudi-owned firm to deepen its integration into Pakistan’s automotive after-sales market, leveraging its nationwide infrastructure to distribute synthetic motor oils tailored to modern vehicle engines.
