Keeping up with a Growing City

Najaf Iqbal Syed, Chief Metropolitan Officer, Islamabad, Pakistan

December 2018 | Interview

 

 

“Islamabad is one of the best, liveable cities in Pakistan because of its environment
- peaceful, calm and comparatively cleaner.”

 

While it was beautifully planned by a Greek architect-town planner, weak enforcement
in Islamabad led to the creation of private residential colonies and slums. But in light of
a rapidly growing population, the city is rethinking its future development.
