I also think it will have to be real estate but you'll have to make sure that you are paying a fair price for your plot. Not sure about Karachi but in Lahore, during the last boom, prices for some phases in DHA shot upto to nearly Rs 20m per kanal and many investors would have taken their positions. Now those prices are down by upto 50-60%. People who would have bought their plots then are in big time loses and in loses which they may never be able to recover.

I think the best value plots or indeed files would be in the developing phases of schemes such as DHA.

Gold is also a hedge against inflation, like real estate. However, it's difficult to buy and store. Moreover, given the current level where gold is trading in the international markets, I don't forsee a more than 20-30% increase. Real estate, specially in develping areas, has probably potential to rise by 10% p.a. for the next few years.

Since rupee gets weaker every year, I wouldn't hold significant investments in government securities.

Securities markets are not very efficient in Pakistan so wouldn't take much rish there too.
