Pakistan’s ambassador to the United States, Husain Haqqani, touted his country Friday as a promising arena for Utah business owners eager to expand internationally.

Haqqani, who was named Pakistan’s ambassador in May, told Utah business leaders gathered at a luncheon sponsored by The World Trade Center of Utah there are many opportunities in his country, particularly in the areas of energy and agricultural development.
