Published August 22, 2002 at 12:00 AM EDT

Refugees are returning to Afghanistan in record numbers and many of them hope to start businesses. On Morning Edition, guest host Renee Montagne reports on one factory owner who hopes to help rebuild his homeland -- and on the many obstacles he must overcome before his dream is realized. It's the latest part of NPR's series "Re-Creating Afghanistan."
