In a significant move to boost Pakistan’s economy, the federal government, under the leadership of Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, has approved the creation of a dedicated division for the Special Investment Facilitation Council (SIFC). This decision aims to strengthen institutional capabilities and foster investment in the country. As a result, Pakistan has seen a surge in investments, with more expected in the near future.
At the forefront of this investment drive is Sunwalk Group, an international investment company committed to building a new Pakistani backbone in telecom infrastructure, optical fiber cable (OFC). The company’s efforts have been instrumental in laying optical cables along railway lines, connecting major population cities and ensuring line stability. This development holds great significance for the growth of Pakistan’s telecommunications industry.
The success of Sunwalk Group’s endeavors can be attributed to the collaborative efforts of Pakistan’s Ministry of IT, PTA, SIFC, and the Ministry of Railways. The new government’s swift issuance of a right-of-way policy for railway telecommunications operators has further facilitated this progress.
With Sunwalk Group’s investment, Pakistan is poised to witness a significant transformation in its telecom infrastructure, paving the way for enhanced connectivity, economic growth, and development. As the country continues to attract investments, the future looks promising for Pakistan’s telecommunications sector.
Sunwalk Group, a leading international investment company, has been actively investing in Pakistan’s telecom infrastructure, with a focus on optical fiber cable (OFC) deployment. Their investments aim to strengthen Pakistan’s digital backbone, connecting major cities and towns, and enhancing the country’s overall connectivity through 10,000 km of optical fiber cable along railway lines and other Highways, establishment of a state-of-the-art network operations center in Islamabad to monitor and maintain the optical fiber network, collaboration with local telecom operators to provide high-speed internet services to underserved areas, promoting digital inclusion, investment in research and development to enhance Pakistan’s telecom infrastructure, including the adoption of 5G technology, creation of employment opportunities for local talent, contributing to Pakistan’s economic growth.
