Made in Pakistan?

November 21, 2020

I recently visited Urdu Bazar, Karachi, to buy a skeleton model. I was appalled when I came to know that Pakistan is not manufacturing such items any more. Other stationery items like a sticker set with countries flag also had a Made in China tag. This is the state of our manufacturing sector. Unless Pakistan becomes a self-sufficient country and starts manufacturing such goods, it cannot have a strong economy. It is time the authorities paid attention to this issue and took steps to revive the manufacturing sector if they want to uplift the economy of Pakistan.
