It is not just the barriers to foreign investment that need to be removed, but also the barriers to local investment. It would be interesting to know what obstacles are in the process of being removed

Instead of making policies and laws that benefit for setting up local industries so that the domestic investors can invest easily instead of real estate. Fix the basics first before FX

Give a chance to local investors on a preferred basis. They can also accept their returns in Rupees even. But our whole focus is on dollars and then we end up paying back in dollars. remember IPP's!!!

Courts will not allow fixing the biggest barrier: PTI's politics of disruption, instability, chaos, & destruction.
