How can technology help to improve the economy of Gilgit Baltistan?

We all are well known about the first ever e-Commerce website of GilgitBaltistan ehunza.com is performing since last few years in a limited resources e.g bad internet and power. But we encourages us is the emerging technology world the developments in tech sciences so we want to survival for long term. What we do right now is selling the handmade products to empower women in Hunza valley. we have sold huge products from small medium women enterprises.

Whats our next plans for coming 2 years.

We want to make a marketplace for all those house hold women who are making handmade products we want to enable them to sell their own products through our website. we want to make their business globally with the help of technology therefore we are burning our mid night oil to create a perfect platform.

Whats are new opportunities ahead?

By the grace of God the people of Hunza are self dependents and well educated so we will easily able to make a them convince to sell online and how to get trust from customers. Although e-Commerce have captured whole world but unfortunately in Pakistan people don't have much believe on internet and they think internet business are fake and how can we trust others products without touch feel. 

This is bigger challenge for us to create a great trust of customers and consumers so far we have done our best we build a great culture among the customers and sellers we also helping the sellers how to build trust by providing quality, efficient, quick delivery and have return policy for products, this is basic of e-Commerce success business model. When you delivering quality products beyond the customers imagination they will bring you 10 more customers by word of mouth marketing. 

Optic Fiber.

We all have a great expectation from optic fiber which have already crossed from china border to Pakistan and working progress is effective in coming 2 years the internet will be common for each consumer. so when internet will be easily in the hand of consumer they will need to use it in positive way instead of wasting time of social media sites. With a big resource there are also challenges come which may effect the cultural and moral values so to take care of these moral and cultural values we are building a platform of all the consumers in a better way to do businesses globally, we are working on creating awareness of e-commerce to house hold women if we can success they can success. Most of people still thinking in a traditional way and they are waiting on the tourist and other traditional businesses by investing huge amount of money e.g hotels, big markets, which are better but they cannot help as people think on other hand the cultural look of Hunza valley gradually become a urban look. If what people start online businesses where they don't need to invest even one dollar and there shop can see to whole world 24/7 open no light issue in shop no other stuff like doing in traditional shop for waiting a customers and risk of expiring thing as well as spending a time in one place this is wisdom which we are fully trying to create in the sense of awareness to people of Hunza valley. We have a great human resources which we can use for various technical development in field of e-commerce. 

CPEC:

CPEC project will surely impact on the economy of Gilgit Baltistan. Although we have no idea what will be advantages for the Gilgit Baltistan but we can say that the if the Goverment of pakistan and china Government will help any logistic company with efficient services in Gilgit Baltistan that would be great kind because people can able do business at their homes by using efficient services. Although TCS and Pakistan post are great services in Gilgit Baltistan which we used so far they deliver on time. We are using tcs for local shipments which are great  we use pakistan post for international shipments which is great in real sense as customer i experienced so far with these two couriers services. Most of people don't aware particularly with Pakistan post which delivers products through out 180 countries across the world on less price so what if there will be a lot of sellers will use Pakistan post for international shipment they can also provides us great tracking system and great customers services for tracking of shipments status.
