Prime Minister Muhammad Shehbaz Sharif on Tuesday commended his economic team for the effective implementation of the government\u2019s reform agenda, following the International Monetary Fund\u2019s (IMF) approval of a $1.2 billion tranche under the ongoing programme.
\nThe prime minister, in a statement, lauded the supportive and pivotal role played by Chief of Army Staff and Chief of Defence Forces Field Marshal Syed Asim Munir, in implementation of reforms which paved the way for Pakistan\u2019s economic growth.
\nHe also praised Finance Minister Senator Muhammad Aurangzeb and his team for their tireless efforts, noting that the IMF\u2019s expression of satisfaction with Pakistan\u2019s performance was a testament to their competence and dedication.
\n\u201cThe disbursement of this tranche proves that Pakistan is steadfastly implementing the structural reforms essential for economic stability and sustainable growth. Steering the country away from the brink of default and placing it firmly on the path of stability and progress has been an extraordinarily challenging journey which was overcome consequent to efforts by political parties which sacrificed their politics and the economic difficulties endured by the nation,\u201d he remarked.
\nThe prime minister viewed that Pakistan\u2019s economic reforms and digitization had become a successful case study and an example for the world. \u201cInsha Allah, the dream of Pakistan\u2019s economic prosperity will soon come true,\u201d he commented.
\nPrime Minister Shehbaz said that after achieving stability, the economy was moving toward growth which required even more hard work.
\n\u201cAs Khadim-e-Pakistan, I will continue working until Pakistan achieves prosperity and gets deliverance from foreign debts. The time is not far when Pakistan will achieve complete riddance from debts and become economically self-sufficient,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
