For all the uninitiated, and sour trolls and detractors, Pakistan may have the world's fourth-largest oil and gas reserves. Of course, much needs to be done, and extraction requires a huge investment, but their presence was verified after a 3-year extensive survey. Let's make.

@AwaisY_ @NajamAli2020 Imran was against any lockdown. Period. Khakis took the lead & pushed sensible policies in consultation with experts. The first expression of smart lockdown, based on data, came from @umarsaif. The work he'd done in Dengue prevention was the base. Imran had ZERO input.

Don't drop out of college to start or work for a startup. There will be other (and probably better) startup opportunities, but you can't get your college years back.

For the year 2024/25, total IT exports of Pakistan stood at $4.5 billion that is 28% increase from the previous year. I used to mock our interim IT minister when the used to claim that he will take the IT services to $10 billion per year. Let’s hope we meet that target and my

When I accepted the position to serve as the Federal Minister for IT & Telecom in the interim government, our top priority was to grow Pakistan's IT exports by making banking/foreign currency policy changes to incentive IT exports and facilitate online freelancers, and to help

All Ph.D. programs in the US are fully funded programs by the university. Apparently, whoever has conceived this program has not been to a graduate school in the US. Not sure why we keep wasting money like this in the name of higher education . Pakistan needs to learn from

پی ٹی آئی کی کامیابی یہ تھی کہ اُس نے بے شرمی اور روانی سے جھوٹ بولنے والوں کی روزی روٹی کو پی ٹی آئی کے بیانئیے کے ساتھ منسلک کر دیا۔ ان جھوٹوں کی یو ٹیوب ویڈیوز پی ٹی آئی کے وٹس ایپ اور سوشل میڈیا گروپس میں شئیر کی جاتیں جن سے انہیں ویوز اور ڈالرز ملتے، جتنا زیادہ جھوٹ اُتنے.

@umarsaif We would have reached a long way towards paperless govt if you had stayed in office. I remeber doubling of revenue through E stamp papers in 1 years. Only solution to good management is E-Govt.
