Alongside this, the steps taken for reform and digitalization of procedures to reduce bureaucracy and expedite project approvals were highly praised.
It was stressed that the Kurdistan Regional Government fully supports the private sector and offers all legal, administrative, and logistical facilitations to investors who wish to participate in rebuilding the capital's infrastructure and elevating Erbil's new position on the global tourism and economic map.
