Significant progress has been made in the Pakistan–China economic partnership, opening new investment opportunities in Pakistan’s solar energy and high-tech sectors. With effective facilitation by the Special Investment Facilitation Council (SIFC), efforts to promote foreign investment in the country continue to gain momentum.
In this regard, Federal Minister for the Board of Investment, Qaiser Ahmed Sheikh, held an important meeting with a delegation of China’s Hebei Johang Energy Technology Group. The Chinese delegation expressed strong interest in investing billions of dollars in Pakistan’s solar energy and high-tech industries.
The delegation also proposed setting up large-scale solar panel manufacturing plants in Pakistan. During the meeting, both sides reviewed the outcomes of the Pakistan–China B2B Investment Conference held in Beijing in September 2025, where agreements and joint ventures worth $8.5 billion were finalized across several priority sectors.
Pakistan was highlighted as a safe, attractive, and fast-growing investment destination for Chinese investors. The government has decided to allocate 6,000 acres of land for investment projects.
Minister Qaiser Ahmed Sheikh stated that Pakistan is moving toward economic stability, noting that the stock market index has improved four to five times compared to last year.
Both countries expect increased employment, exports, and industrial growth through enhanced cooperation, with SIFC playing a key role in strengthening Pakistan’s economic outlook.
