United States has assured international investment for the construction of Diamer Basha Dam, today, declaring that solution to the energy crisis is imperative to democracy in Pakistan.
Workshop had two separate sessions and dozens of American investors participated in the workshop conducted by the American government and reviewed the Diamer Bhasha Dam project.
Head of United States Agency for International Development (USAID) Rajiv Shah and American Ambassador Richard Olson said America does not intend to put Pakistan’s democracy at stake merely because of the energy crisis. So America would not only be providing investment for Diamer Bhasha Dam but other power projects as well.
They also assured the American investors that their investment would be safe as Pakistan has guaranteed the safety of the investments and has never in the past been a defaulter in the payments of the international loans.
