He said that the Portuguese investors could benefit from the conducive investment environment in the country.

The envoy informed the governor that one could learn from the Portuguese experience for the promotion of tourism.

He was of the view that because of GPS Plus status accorded to Pakistan by the European Union, the access of Pakistani textile products to the European markets would be easier.

The envoy pointed out that Portugal meets 62 percent of its energy requirement from the wind energy and was ready to assist Pakistan in this field.
