Dzhalal Hasan from the Investments and Trade Council of the Pundzhab province invited the Bulgarian investors in Pakistan to participate in the developing energy sector of the country and for investments in the construction of infra-structural projects.

I hope our commercial relations with Pakistan will achieve a balance in the next years – said BCCI President Tsvetan Simeonov and recalled that the delegation with Pakistani business representatives was shortened at the last moment for the reason of Bulgaria’s applying a system complying with the Shengen convention clauses.
