Fixing the economy

May 08, 2021

The fragile economy of Pakistan was just moving towards some stability when the country got hit by the Covid-19 outbreak. The disastrous pandemic halted the economy’s recovery process. The economy is now shirinking, and the rate of unemployment is increasing rapidly. Pakistan lost almost one-third of its revenue. Its exports also dropped by 50 percent due to lockdowns.

The country needs creative and bold policies to come out of the economic crisis.
