Thus, Pakistan is one of the first three countries around the world which has got the right to produce and export the medicine. It also gives an immense boost to the country’s economy. Pakistan’s economy is facing harsh outcome after closure of business and semi lock-down in the country.
The latest reports also claim that the remittance is also decreasing in the country. Thus, it required a strong support to its economy to deal with its high debts, declining employment rates and increasing poverty. This may serve as a strong breather.
