UAE's Abu Dhabi Group and Pakistani real estate tycoon Malik Riaz signed a deal to invest US$ 45 billion in Pakistan including building the world's tallest building in Karachi.
Under the agreement US$45 billion would be invested in Pakistan for various construction projects. Out of the total investment, US$ 10 billion would be invested in Islamabad and Lahore whereas the remaining sum would be invested in Sindh. These projects also include the construction of tallest building of the world (taller than BurjKhalifa, Dubai) in Karachi. Moreover, the project encompasses Sports city, Educational and Medical City, International City and Media City. The project also includes the construction of miniatures of Seven Wonders of the World. These projects will employ more than 2.5 million people and will boost more than 55 industries like cement, bricks, iron, steel and glass. These projects also are expected to represent all the social classes of the society and middle-class and lower-middle class will have equal representation.
A distinguished feature of this project is the utilization of seawater to produce electricity. The projects will have their own grid stations. Moreover, a separate modern water treatment plant will be established to convert seawater into drinking water. The proposals for the 1000-meter Kingdom Tower in Jeddah, for the 1050 meters tall Azerbaijan Tower and for the 838-meter SkyCity in Changsha have also claimed the distinction of the world's next tallest building.
