BEIJING: President Asif Ali Zardari on Thursday called for greater Chinese investment in infrastructure development, particularly in mega energy projects, and proposed setting up of an Energy Fund for mega projects, including hydro-power projects.

President Zardari, in his meeting with President Hu Jintao on the sidelines of the SCO summit, called upon the Joint Energy Working Group of the two countries that held its second meeting last month in Islamabad, to find new ways in that regard.

The two leaders discussed the whole gamut of bilateral relations to the recent developments taking place at the regional and international level. (APP)
