Speaking on the occasion, NWFP Minister for Finance Mohammad Hamayun Khan said the government was making efforts for bringing investment to arrest the growing problem of employment.
He said that the provincial government had constituted a committee, headed by the Chief Minister, to give incentives to private sector for promotion of private investment in the province.
The minister said that the provincial government was also making arrangements for the establishment of Reconstruction Opportunity Zones (ROZs), and added the US Congress was likely to give approval to the product by November.
