With the plans of the 13th government, a total investment of about $19 billion – the largest industrial investment – will start by using the resources of profitable domestic factories in coming days.
According to IRNA, one of the special measures of the 13th government is to restore investment in the country’s economy with the aim of raising GDP, boosting production and increasing employment.
During the eight years of the previous government which ended in August 2021, the amount of investment in the country’s economy fell sharply.
Iran’s average economic growth rate in the previous government was the lowest among recent governments and it has caused fundamental damages to people’s livelihoods.
The awful state of investment in the country during the eight years to August 2021, especially in the field of infrastructure, has been showing its effects since two years ago with the return of power outages in summer and winter and gas cuts, which people fully felt the results of the weakness of 11th and 12th governments.
The 13th government, which inherited the critical investment situation in the country from the previous government, in the first months of its activity, formed a taskforce of economic experts, to solve this crisis.
Accordingly, the taskforce announced a list of 49 projects ready to start operations in February this year with a value of about $19 billion, which is the largest industrial investment in the history of Iran.
