ISLAMABAD: Caretaker Prime Minister Anwaar-ul-Haq said on Saturday that important decisions have been taken for an ‘open Pakistan’ from the platform of SIFC through the new visa regime.

After the second consecutive day of apex committee of Special Investment Facilitation Council (SIFC), in a televised statement, the caretaker prime minister said that under new visa regime overseas business community and businessmen would be issued visa by all the missions for coming to Pakistan on provision of one document issued to them by their country of residence or international business organisations.

SIFC apex body lays focus on economic revival efforts

Additionally, he said along with that, on the basis of issuance of any document by Pakistani entities of chambers and business people to anybody living abroad, on the basis that visa would be facilitated.

He said visa regime facilities would not only be available to business people but also to those associated with midsize and big business organisations. The caretaker prime minister expressed the hope that under this regime, Pakistan would be entering in a new era of business and economy.

The second consecutive meeting of the apex committee of the SIFC reviewed the opportunities of local and foreign investment and strategy to remove hurdles in this regard.

Mr Interim Prime Minister please discuss elections and not policy matters. Your primary role is to hold elections, by hanging on to power beyond the election period will amount to high treason.

Liberalising visas won’t solve the problem of nobody wanting to visit Pakistan. Pakistan is not a desirable location for international investors or tourists. A country who is always in the news for the wrong reasons, with photos of angry mullahs burning American/Danish/Swedish/French/Israeli flags is not a country anyone feels comfortable to visit.

Now SIFC is another drum they have been beating because they have nothing else to show for. Now everything is SIFC. How low can you sink and how stupid do you think this nation is.

Who in their right mind would want to visit this mullah frothing at the mouth country. Make it visa free and you might get some adventure seeking tourism.
