声明说：“巴基斯坦在地理和经济上都是独特的地位，以成为数据中心的全球枢纽。作为亚洲，欧洲和中东之间的数字桥梁，巴基斯坦为数据流和数字基础设施提供了世界上最具战略意义的地理位置。”

Since the inception of the PCC, there has been tremendous interest from global Bitcoin miners and data infrastructure companies. Several international firms have already visited the country for exploratory discussions, and following this landmark announcement, more global players are expected to visit in the coming weeks.
