  • Comments Off on Pakistan among top five PPI countries
It is heartening to note that Pakistan has ranked No. 1 in South Asia in private infrastructure investment with $ 5.9 billion of investments in 2017, thus becoming one of the world's top five private participation in infrastructure (PPI) investment destinations, states a new World Bank report. According to media reports, for the first time ever, infrastructure investments in Pakistan surpassed that of India, which has traditionally been the heavyweight in the region.

The China Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) has certainly defined Pakistan's future infrastructure landscape. The Pakistani governments, however, will be required to work harder towards creating an environment which is strongly characterised by hard work, commitment, transparency and fairness.
