\nDue to the tireless efforts and timely decisions of the current government, he said that Pakistan is rapidly moving on the path of development.
\nUnder the leadership of CDF and COAS Field Marshal General Syed Asim Munir, the Pakistan Armed Forces achieved historic victories in the Battle of Truth and frustrated nefarious designs of the enemy.
\nIn the Battle of Truth, he said that Pakistan Armed Forces inflicted a humiliating defeat on an enemy arrogant in its weaponry and raised the pride of the entire nation.
\n\u201cAfter Indian aggression, overseas Pakistanis stood firm in defending Pakistan\u2019s interests abroad,\u201d he said.
\nEngr Amir Muqam said this war was fought by the entire Pakistani nation with unity, sending a clear message to the world that we are all one for Pakistan. \u201cIf Pakistan is attacked in any form, every patriotic Pakistani will respond decisively, as in the Battle of Truth,\u201d said Amir Muqam.
\nHe said record remittances sent by overseas Pakistanis are practical proof of their love for and trust in Pakistan, adding that remittances amounting to USD 3.59 billion in December provided strong support to the national economy. He said overseas Pakistanis are in fact Pakistan\u2019s true ambassadors, who have established their place in host countries through hard work, sacrifice, and determination.
\nEngr Amir Muqam said a conducive environment for investment has been provided in Pakistan, adding through the SIFC, a one-window facility for investment has been established so that overseas Pakistanis can invest with confidence.
\nGranting the Kashmiri people the right to self-determination in accordance with United Nations resolutions is inevitable, said Amir Muqam and added that lasting peace in the region is not possible without resolving the Kashmir issue strictly in line with UN resolutions.
