Planning Minister A H M Mustafa Kamal Wednesday said the government is going to prepare the seventh Five-year plan (SFYP) to shift country’s economy to investment- driven from the factor-driven development.
“We want a change in production, and the Seventh Five-year Plan would focus both on internal and external investment to achieve GDP growth 8-10 per cent. The targets which are yet to be achieved, will be fulfilled through the SFYP,” he added.
