Chinese investments in Pakistan have seen significant growth in the first half of the fiscal year 2024-25. Investments from mainland China increased by 48.2%, reaching $535.5 million, making up over 40% of Pakistan’s total foreign direct investment (FDI).
Hong Kong also contributed $134.3 million during this period, further strengthening Pakistan’s economy. These investments are helping improve infrastructure, particularly in roads, railways, and energy projects. They are also creating job opportunities and introducing advanced technology to local industries.
Phase II of the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) is expected to bring even more investments, especially in agriculture and food production. This will further boost economic growth and strengthen trade relations between the two countries.
