Pakistan right now has various emerging fields and areas available for good investment opportunities for foreigners. These areas include Information Technology, Construction, e-commerce, the automotive industry, and the food and agricultural industry.
Recently Pakistan has started the manufacturing of electronic cars, thus creating more opportunities for foreign companies either big or small to invest in Pakistan.
The Consul General of Pakistan even gave a book called ‘The Craft Traditions of Pakistan’ to Mayor Patrick Brown. This book was written by Noorjhan Bilgrami. The book talks about the different traditional crafts of Pakistan such as clay, wood, metal, cloth and stone. The gesture of presenting the book to the Mayor shows the promotion of Pakistan’s craftsmanship at an international level.
