Quetta: The Balochistan Board of Investment and Trade (BBOIT), under the leadership of Chief Minister Mir Sarfraz Bugti, has announced significant initiatives to attract domestic and foreign investment. A meeting chaired by the Chief Minister focused on fully activating the board, launching facilitation centers, and hosting a high-profile “Balochistan Business Summit.”
The facilitation centers aim to provide streamlined support to investors, ensuring the availability of essential services such as gas, water, and infrastructure. Chief Minister Bugti emphasized the province’s untapped potential, citing its rich mineral resources, expansive coastline, and strategic location as ideal for industrial and business ventures.
“The provincial government is committed to providing a secure and business-friendly environment for investors,” said Bugti. “Foolproof security measures will ensure that investors can operate without fear while contributing to Balochistan’s economic self-sufficiency.”
A committee led by Chief Secretary Balochistan has been tasked with implementing these initiatives. The provincial government also plans to facilitate private industrial estates and enhance investor confidence by addressing key infrastructure needs.
With these steps, Balochistan aims to boost its economic growth, attract long-term investments, and drive prosperity across the province.
Prominent figures, including OIT Major (Retired) Kabir Zirkoon, attended the meeting, highlighting the government’s dedication to fostering sustainable economic development.
