PESHAWAR: The NWFP government in collaboration with donor agencies will establish a Women Industrial Area in Swat, said Awami National Party (ANP) Working Committee Member Gul Mina Bilal Ahmed in a press statement on Sunday. She said a process would be started by the end of this month to send 500 skilled women of Malakand division abroad.
