BEIJING : President Pervez Musharraf lauded China’s assistance on mega projects in Pakistan and said his government encourages Chinese entrepreneurs to invest more in his country to achieve win-win results. President Musharraf said this in an interview to Xinhua news agency ahead of his upcoming state visit to China from April 10 to 15. He appreciated China’s assistance on mega projects, including the Karakoram Highway, a link between Pakistan and China which is under expansion, and the Gwadar Port.
The President asked for more Chinese entrepreneurs to invest in his country to achieve win-win results.
“There is a big market, then we have created an investor- friendly environment here in Pakistan where any investor gets a lot of benefits, advantages and has a scope to make money,” he said.
President Musharraf said that Pakistan has also created special industrial zones in the Gwadar Port and other areas which are favorable for Chinese investors.
He said that the two countries also have close cooperation in fighting terrorism, adding that Pakistan would give full support to China’s action against the “Eastern Turkistan” terrorist group.
“In the future, I see very bright and very strong relations,” Musharraf said.
He said that Pakistan-China relationship is broad-based and it would witness further development in the future.
President Musharraf spoke highly of the all-weather and time-tested friendship between Pakistan and China, saying that “the base for this relationship is broad, not uni-focused”.
Besides strong diplomatic relations between the two countries, Musharraf said, Pakistan and China have also maintained good cooperation education, defense production, trade and international affairs.
