Potential dangers in Pakistan

Pakistan enjoys significant foreign investment in key sectors including mining, fuel extraction, manufacturing, automotive, technology and construction, but it is not without its challenges.

The security situation in many parts of Pakistan is often precarious and swiftly changeable and there is a high incidence of terrorist and kidnap threat for foreign nationals throughout the country.

Medical facilities are limited in many places and malaria, dengue fever and other waterborne diseases can be a problem.
