ISLAMABAD, Oct 23 (APP): Pakistan’s Caretaker Minister Shahid Ashraf Tarar met with French Ambassador Nicolas Galey on Monday to discuss issues of mutual interest, including investment opportunities in key sectors such as railways, motorways, and shipping.
Tarar highlighted the country’s democratic stability and bright future, while Galey expressed confidence in the Pakistani market and pledged to attract more French investment.
Shahid Ashraf Tarar further said that the democratic stability in Pakistan has continued since 2008 and its future is bright.
Some of the specific investment opportunities discussed include:
A new railway line from Kohat to Kharlachi to connect with Afghanistan, the Sukkur-Hyderabad motorway M-6, and the expansion of the Pakistan National Shipping Corporation.
