“The executive director of TNA, who had a meeting with the Deputy Minister of Food and Drug Authority, showed interest in investing $10 million in Afghanistan,” said Mohammad Javid Hazheer, a spokesman for NFDA.
“Their demand was to ensure their security and give them the land.”
In addition, members of the Drug Manufacturing Companies Union in the country say investment in the sector has increased under the Islamic Emirate.
“If foreign investors invest in Afghanistan, one good thing is that we will become self-sufficient, secondly, the quality of treatment will increase, and thirdly, it will affect the prices,” said a member of the union, adding that “the Islamic Emirate has provided a good environment for both Afghans and foreigners. If they come and invest, the result will be good.”
According to reports, $300 million has been invested in the pharmaceutical production sector in Afghanistan, but the IEA is hoping to make Afghanistan self-sufficient in this sector by attracting foreign investment.
