The Pakistani leader said his country would introduce favourable investment policies for Chinese businessmen in the country.

Pakistani officials said Chinese investments are needed in the country's agriculture, hydropower and energy sectors. The infrastructure alone will require an initial investment of $110 billion.

They said Chinese fruit preservers can also play a crucial role in Pakistan as about 40 percent of the fruits cannot be transported due to the lack of freezing vehicles.

Zardari was paying his fourth visit to China since taking office last September.
