IMF programs are meant to provide space for adjustment & reform They do so by providing money & catalyzing other inflows that build a country’s FX reserves & help them repay their external debtors But Pakistan’s debt repayment needs are now so high that this won’t work … 1/4
I paid for X premium because I thought it would help the articles I posted getting viewed on twitter, but it honestly didn't help I stopped paying after 2 months. X discourages external links and it's so hard to hack it now. So much easier to just tweet info rather than pay.

In 2020, when the pandemic hit- Eid didn’t feel like Eid, because of so many people dying It’s 2024, and it doesn’t feel like Eid because so many of our brothers and sisters in Gaza are either starving or dying Sending thoughts, prayers and strength their way.
Reminder:
The date of Eid Al Fitr is……1st Shawwal 1445
I fail to realise why Pakistan brands no longer sell reasonably priced three piece suits. Why are everything separates? Why can’t one get a decent traditional outfit without looking like a grandmother and without selling a kidney? Everyone failed this year, like the year before
