Overseas Pakistanis urged to invest in tax-free zones
Geo News attributed the appeal to the High Commissioner while APP cited J7 Group chairman.

The Associated Press of Pakistan carried a similar appeal, attributing it to the chairman of J7 Group. The two reports were brief: neither outlet's headline and standfirst named the High Commissioner, specified where the remarks were made, or described the zones beyond calling them modern and tax-free.
Skardu Times could not retrieve the full text of either report at the time of filing. No further details were available.
