A Chinese investor has announced plans to inject tens of millions of dollars into the mining, tourism, and broader economic sectors of Panjshir province.
Provincial Police Chief Qari Ahmadullah Badr recently held discussions with the visiting Chinese investor and tourist, focusing on expanding investment opportunities, advancing mining operations, boosting tourism, and fostering economic cooperation.
Welcoming the initiative, Chief Badr assured the investor that a safe and conducive environment for business has been firmly established in the province. He further emphasized that local authorities are fully prepared to support both domestic and foreign investors in strict compliance with existing laws.
The Chinese investor lauded Panjshir’s current security climate, citing it as the primary motivation behind his readiness to commit substantial funds to develop the province’s gold, emerald, and mica reserves.
He added that additional Chinese firms are expected to arrive in the near future, aligning with the Islamic Emirate’s economic policies, to participate in mining ventures, develop tourist destinations, and undertake other infrastructural projects.
According to the investor, the implementation of these ventures is projected to generate employment for approximately 5,000 young Afghans across the mining, tourism, and commercial sectors.
