Yeah...he didnt know.
He reduced the current account deficit by 70% without even going to the IMF, but he had no solution.
He stood like a wall in front of IMF when they tried to bulldoze him with pre-conditions. Yeah, he had no solution.
He was brutally honest in whatever was going on on the financial front. Never gave fudged figures, or made false promises. Yeah, he had no solution.

If Pakistan today, is out of the default zone, it is because of Asad Umar. Hafeez Sheikh so far has just given in to IMFs terms, hook line and sinker. So far we havent seen any wizardry from him.


Hafeez Shaikh Has Come To Ruin Pakistan's Economy And He Has Already Started By Withdrawing Zero Rating From Our Export Industry

AU is very humble, educated and noble man. Whatever you say, he tried very hard while the economy is so screwed up by both mega corrupt parties unfortunately ruling the country for decades. In addition to the economic woes he had to face dumb and stupid malicious campaign against him and PTI government. I have great faith in him that he would have achieved big success only if he was left alone from the media onslaught on him despite the messed up economic challenges.

? % correct and agreed, He is a big helping hand in PTI and he believes in IK and his ideology, IK need people like AU. May Allah keep him in PTI.
