Prominent business figure of the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Suhail M Al-Zarooni, has said UAE businessmen and tourists spend millions of dollars on trips to Switzerland and other countries for tourism but if the law and order situation improves and security is provided, they could surely be diverted to Pakistan.
“The country is blessed with beautiful landscapes but the lack of importance given by government departments to providing security to foreign guests is having a negative impact on foreign direct investment and tourism in Pakistan.”
Al-Zarooni, who is also the Chairman of Al-Zarooni Foundation, appealed to the federal and provincial governments to especially provide security for foreign investors, businessmen and prominent dignitaries so that they could fearlessly tour Pakistan.
“This will help restore global confidence, besides promoting the positive image of Pakistan all over the world.”
