Minister of Planning, Development and Reform Ahsan Iqbal on Thursday said Pakistan’s profile has improved enormously in terms of being an investment destination because of the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) coupled with improved economic indicators and law and order situation.
“Under Vision-2025, we are restructuring the portfolio of our productive sectors through a cluster-based approach to transform agriculture, industry and mineral sectors,” he said in a meeting with a delegation of the Abraaj Group, which called on him at the ministry’s office.
He described Pakistan as an attractive investment destination with the launch of CPEC and said that Pakistan’s perception has changed drastically. “The world now recognises Pakistan as the next emerging success story,” he added. Iqbal said the country now needs to capitalise on the changed perception.
