 No quick - fix solutions.

It will take some time to set the economy on the right path in the face of gigantic financial problems, said by finance minister Ishaq Dar.

" There's no quick fix, and it will take time as we had faced such challenges in 1998 and 2013; but all of those challenges were efficiently tackled in due course of time," said by finance minister Ishaq Dar on Saturday while talking to a delegation of Karachi Chamber of commerce & Industry.

Finance minister Ishaq Dar claimed," The stock markets were the best performing markets of the region." The political instability destroyed everything while Pakistan was going in the right direction, Finance minister Ishaq Dar added.

" I reassure you that we will come out of economic crisis and come up with new ideas and initiatives which the country actually deserves through agricultural revolution and a special focus on IT." Finance minister Ishaq Dar said.

" The most difficult reforms have been done and the bleeding is over. Pakistan will survive and we will collectively face all the challenges to put the country back on track, leading to progress and prosperity," Finance minister Ishaq Dar said.

" The government will put forward a business - and people- friendly budget for the fiscal year 2023-24," Finance minister Ishaq Dar announced.

" What happened in the past has badly affected Pakistan's reputation. However, the government is doing it's best . We are well aware of the burden being put on the business community and the common men," Finance minister Ishaq Dar said.

" They should be ashamed. You should be well - wisher of your country and you should be loyal to your soil," A visibly angry finance minister Ishaq Dar said.

" I assure you Pakistan is a sovereign country. Pakistan has trillions of dollars of assets. If we have external debt of 100 billion dollars then we have assets as well. We don't need to worry. This shall too pass," finance minister Ishaq Dar added.

Finance minister Ishaq Dar said," Our recommendations are mostly pertaining to efficiently dealing with those hurdles which are hindering trade and economic growth and paving way for corruption."

Finance minister Ishaq Dar said," Three per cent further tax on supplies to unregistered buyer should not be charged, if the CNIC number is provided by registered seller in Sales Tax returns. This issue has been pending for many years and should be resolved in this year's budget."

The Chairman BMG added," The recession in the UK and the US was unlikely to have any impact on our exports as, being low- end suppliers , we do not fall in that recession bracket, but the core reason for losing exports in these important markets can only be attributed to high cost of doing business which must be brought down at par with Bangladesh and I assure you that we are capable enough to export even more than what Bangladesh exports".
