GARDIZ (Pajhwok): Investors and traders in southern Paktia province have said lack of electricity and place for an industrial park created problems for them.
They say they use power generators on personal cost and residential areas for their factories, but if provided with facilities, their production and investment can increase by manifold.
Abdullah Khan, owner of a soap making factory in Gardiz, the capital of Paktia province, told Pajhwok Afghan News he invested around $150,000 and hired 30 people in his factory.
