According to local businessmen, Palestinians have long been hesitant about investing in Arab East Jerusalem, governed by Israel since it occupied the West Bank in 1967 but a small growing number are rising to the challenge, seeing the chance to make a decent return while helping to revive the city's decaying Palestinian economy.
