ISLAMABAD: Around $130 million worth of investment would be made in the Rashakai Special Economic Zone (SEZ) in the first phase, disclosed Special Assistant to K-P Chief Minister on Industry, Commerce and Labour Abdul Karim Khan.
Talking to APP, he said 9% of the investment in the SEZ would be made by the K-P government while the remaining 91% would come from foreign sources, mainly Chinese investment.
Rashakai SEZ, the first of the nine identified SEZs under the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC), is likely to be inaugurated next month. The special assistant voiced hope that China would soon give its approval for the Rashakai SEZ, which would pave the way for investment of $128 million in the zone.

“We are preparing to inaugurate the project on April 4 in Mardan,” an official says.
PESHAWAR: After a yearlong delay, the women-only pink bus service will hit the roads in Mardan district on Thursday (April 4).
Officials in the TransPeshawar Company, operator of the Peshawar’s Bus Rapid Transit project which has been tasked to run the pink buses, confirmed that they had awarded a contract to a company and all details had been finalised in that regard.
“We are preparing to inaugurate the project on April 4 in Mardan,” an official said.
He said that process to select operator for Abbottabad was also in final stages and that they were optimistic that the same company which had been awarded contract for pink buses in Mardan would get the contract.
Another source told Dawn that launch of Abbottabad bus service was also in the process and was likely to be finalised by the end of the current month.
The source said that the launch of the project in the Mardan district would be a milestone towards facilitating the female population, which lacked decent transportation facilities.
He said that Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Chief Minister Mahmood Khan should take ownership of the project and inaugurate it, which will highlight the provincial government’s seriousness toward women empowerment.
In May last year, the United Nations Office on Project Services had handed over 14 pink buses worth Rs 100 million to the KP government to operate as women-only transport service in Mardan and Abbottabad districts.
However, the launch of the service was delayed for about a year due to disinterest of the transport companies.
