Xinhua, Damascus :
At a time when the official Syrian delegation is holding negotiations with the opposition coalition to reach a political solution to the crunching crisis in the country, the government works to prepare suitable climates for Syrian businessmen to return to the country to perk up the devastating economy.
The local Syria Steps economic website said that a positive atmosphere has been clearly shown by the Syrian private sector’s businessmen, who have shown increasing desire to return to their facilities and factories either for reconstructing or re-opening them.
These positive indicators emerged during the recent meeting that combined more than 600 industrialists from the northern city of Aleppo, Syria’s economic capital, which was held in Lebanon and drew investments worth tens of billions of U.S. dollars.
Syrian Prime Minister Wael al-Halqi said on Monday that the government gives priority to the investment and industrial sectors to carry out a genuine reform project.
