PESHAWAR, March 4 (Gwadar Pro) – Minister for State and Chairman Board of Investment (BOI) Pakistan Chairman Atif Bokhari said that a “world of opportunities” is just a step away and the only thing needed is to set the fundamentals of Industrial Cooperation under the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC).
He made the remarks when addressing CPEC Industrial Cooperation Business to Business (B2B) Investment Conference held here on Thursday.
According to Atif Bokhari, the second phase of CPEC has commenced and BOI would continue to take lead on investment promotion, facilitation and industrial cooperation.
He added that the Government still has an arduous task of devising effective policies, laws, and efficient infrastructure, to facilitate B2B and people to people linkages.
According to Atif Bokhari the Government had already launched conducive policies such as Electric vehicle policy, Mobile Manufacturing, Construction sector policies, Sole Enterprise Special Economic Zone, Regulations 2020, and SEZ Zone Enterprise Admin and Sale/Lease/Sub-lease of Plot Regulations 2021, to increase investment in Pakistan.
Pakistan follows a liberal investment regime, and facilitation is its foremost cornerstone for instilling confidence in investors and creating a conducive environment to attract local and foreign investment.
