Even during his last tenure Naidu played the role of a CEO but what is new is that he has hired leading consultant PricewaterhouseCoopers Pvt Ltd (PwC) to sell 'Brand Andhra Pradesh' to the governments and investors in China, Japan and South Korea when he visits these countries in November-December.READ ALSO: Japan to invest in Andhra Pradesh Hired at a cost of Rs 47 lakh, excluding applicable service taxes, PwC will in its capacity as Content Developer and Investment Facilitator prepare the ground for the CM's visit, fix the appointments and sell the state in order to mop up investments. As per the GO issued on Saturday, PwC will bring out an attractive investment booklet for the AP government and prepare an infrastructure opportunities profile of the state. "The Knowledge Consultant Provider will also extend all support for the delegation planning. PwC team members will also accompany the Naidu's delegation comprising ministers, state government officials and representatives of the industry from the state," sources in the Naidu government told STOI. Naidu, who has prepared a massive plan to bring in investments to his proposed industrial hubs and corridors, wants to conduct negotiations with the government and corporate bosses in these countries not like a chief minister of a small state in India but like head of a global corporate brand. "Naidu does not want to depend wholly on bureaucrats, who are known for quoting rules and introducing impediments. The Far East visit is on a business mission, not a diplomatic one which is why Naidu wants to project himself as a corporate personality rather than the political head of a south Indian province," remarked sources in the government. A PwC team will shortly be placed at the disposal of the Chief Minister's Office, the sources added. Given the success of his business delegation to Naya Raipur in Chhattisgarh last month, officials here are hopeful that Naidu's visit will be fruitful. Naidu during his first tenure had successfully sold Hyderabad and secured investments from top IT companies like Microsoft that gave a new meaning to the erstwhile Nizam's city and created a new image. In fact he was the first chief minister to take advantage of liberalization in the 1990s. Other chief ministers - including now Prime Minister Narendra Modi followed in the footsteps of Naidu.
timmy Posted October 26, 2014 Report Posted October 26, 2014 ప్రైస్ వాటర్ హౌస్ కూపర్స్ కు ‘బ్రాండ్ ఏపీ’ ప్రచార బాధ్యతలు! 01:19 PM ఏపీ సీఎం చంద్రబాబునాయుడు మరోమారు ఏపీ సీఈఓగా వ్యవహరించేందుకు రంగం సిద్ధమైంది. నవంబర్, డిసెంబర్ మాసాల్లో జపాన్, చైనా, దక్షిణ కొరియా దేశాల్లో జరపనున్న పర్యటనను ఆయన ఇందుకు వేదికగా మలచుకుంటున్నారు. ఆ దేశాల్లో తన పర్యటన సందర్భంగా ప్రముఖ పారిశ్రామిక వేత్తలతో సమావేశాల ఏర్పాటు, ఏపీలోని అవకాశాలను అక్కడి పారిశ్రామిక వేత్తలకు వివరించడం, తద్వారా రాష్ట్రానికి భారీ పెట్టుబడులను సాధించే బృహత్తర బాధ్యతను చంద్రబాబు, గతంలో మాదిరే ప్రముఖ కన్సల్టింగ్ సంస్థ ప్రైస్ వాటర్ హౌస్ కూపర్స్ కు అప్పజెప్పారు. ఇందుకోసం ఏపీ సర్కారు ఆ సంస్థకు రూ.47 లక్షలను కన్సల్టింగ్ ఫీజుగా చెల్లించనుంది. ఈ మేరకు ఆ సంస్థతో చంద్రబాబు ప్రభుత్వం ఒప్పందం కుదుర్చుకుంది. ఇప్పటికే ప్రైస్ వాటర్ రంగంలోకి దిగింది. రాష్ట్రంలో అందుబాటులోకి వచ్చిన నిరంతర విద్యుత్, ప్రభుత్వం అందిస్తున్న పన్ను రాయితీలు, ప్రోత్సాహకాల నేపథ్యంలో దేశీయ పారిశ్రామిక దిగ్గజాలను చంద్రబాబు విశేషంగా ఆకట్టుకున్నారు. ఈ దిశగా ఆయన చర్యలు కొంతమేర ఫలితాలను కూడా ఇచ్చాయి. ఇక సీఎం హోదాలో చైనా, జపాన్, దక్షిణ కొరియాల్లో చంద్రబాబు జరపనున్న పర్యటన భారీ ఎత్తున పెట్టుబడులను ఆకర్షించడం ఖాయంగానే కనిపిస్తోంది.
