Investment Potential: Canadian envoy explores Karachi

KARACHI: High Commissioner of Canada Ms Heather Cruden has said that Canadian companies were being encouraged to visit Karachi in order to explore trade and investment opportunities in this region. Exchanging views during her visit to Karachi Chamber of Commerce and Industry (KCCI), Canadian High Commissioner sounded fairly optimistic about the security situation of Karachi city which has been improving and is much better when compared to other areas of the country. “We encourage Canadian companies and numerous business delegations have been visiting Pakistan but we cannot force them to invest here”, she said, adding that the perception about Pakistan was still an issue which refrains Canadian investors.
