KARACHI: The business community has said that the recent pledges for the restoration of the flood victims will not resolve the economic crisis in the country, a statement said on Saturday.
The Federation of Pakistan Chambers of Commerce and Industry’s Businessmen Panel (BMP) has said the multilateral donors and friendly countries’ huge aid pledges might not bring any significant influence on the struggling economy, as the sustainable solution to Pakistan’s economic issues lies in the structural reforms and consistent policies.
FPCCI former president and BMP Chairman Mian Anjum Nisar said that it is high time that the government should start thinking about debt rearrangement, including foreign and domestic.
The verdict to take more loans will keep confusing the problems in the long term, as the government needs $23 billion in foreign debt repayments for this fiscal year, which is the direct result of such decisions of taking loans from foreign nations.
For Nisar, the country’s economy is plunging into an ever-deepening ravine with plummeting foreign exchange reserves, with the continuation of the flawed policy of keeping the interbank dollar rate artificially low that is increasingly being attributed to the government rather than the State Bank of Pakistan (SBP) irrespective of the autonomy granted to it.
Meezan Bank, Pakistan’s leading Islamic bank, has recently signed an agreement with Sui Northern Gas Pipelines Limited (SNGPL), the largest combined gas company in North Central Pakistan, to enable digitalization of consumer bill collection via the bank’s state-of-the-art transaction banking solution (eBiz+), a statement said on Tuesday.
Irfan Siddiqui, founding president and CEO of Meezan Bank, and Ali J Hamdani, managing director and CEO of SNGPL, signed the agreement in the presence of other key management members, including Ariful Islam, deputy chief executive officer; Abdullah Ahmed, group head corporate and official banking; M Saqib Ashraf, head transaction banking; and M Munir, head payments and cash management from Meezan Bank; and Faisal Iqbal, the chief financial officer of SNGPL.
As per the pact, Meezan Bank will provide transaction banking services (eBiz+) to SNGPL, enabling the payment of gas bills by the residents of Punjab, Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa and Azad Jammu and Kashmir (AJ&K) via e-channels and branch banking avenues offered by the bank.
On the instance, Hamdani shared SNGPL’s ambition to become a leader in sourcing energy across Pakistan, while providing ease of access to its consumers via eBiz+ collection services. Siddiqui said: “The agreement between Meezan Bank and SNGPL will not only strengthen the bank’s transaction banking portfolio but will also improve the bill collection process by making it more accessible to millions. SNGPL is already a trusted corporate client for the bank and this agreement further fortifies our relationship.”

Talent is highly prized around the world, and youthful talent is even more so. It’s incredible to be young and achieve significantly more than folks twice your age. Not everyone is meant to reach a certain level of fulfilment in their lives, but if you are ambitious and determined, you can attain your goals with hard work and devotion. Success is never easy, but it appears significantly more difficult and dangerous when you are young. When it comes to young people making a difference in society or introducing new ideas, the name of Subtain Zahid, a young man from Islamabad, Pakistan, must be mentioned. Being ambitious and beginning to work for your objectives at an early age might be a blessing in disguise,Despite this, many people only realise the worth of time after it has passed. Because they are afraid of the problems they will confront, most young people choose to daydream rather than move out of their comfort zone and work on their goals. Subtain Zahid, on the other hand, holds a different viewpoint. Once you’ve started down the road to success, he believes there’s no turning back. Falling and rising are natural parts of the process, and those who maintain their momentum are lucky. Subtain Zahid is a good example of this.
Who is Subtain Zahid?
Subtain Zahid is a 19-year-old young man. His born in 16th march,2003 in Sheikhupura Punjab. He currently resides in Islamabad, Pakistan’s capital. He is now pursuing his bachelor’s degree in Economics at Bahria University Islamabad. His father works for the government. Since he was in fifth grade, he has wanted to become famous on social media. It was a significant risk, but it provided him the motivation he needed to work hard and try new things. He began blogging in 2019 and has over 200k Instagram followers (Subtain blogs). He also works as an influencer and content provider in addition to writing. He collaborated with a lot of Pakistani companies. He has also worked with global brands and campaigns. Finally, he got his big break when he became renowned on Instagram, Tiktok, and other social media platforms.
What does Subtain Zahid have to say about his success?
It wasn’t always sunshine and rainbows. Subtain experienced his first taste of disappointment at a young age, owing to his early achievement. He tells us of a period when he was on the verge of losing a year. He was 33 percent burned by high voltage current in 2016, spent a month in the ICU, and had to redo grade 9 because he wasn’t prepared for the tests. He understands the value of time and believes that if he didn’t waste it, he would be more senior in the class in which he is currently enrolled. However, everything happens for a reason. If he does not lose his one year, he would never see his helpful and loving friends again. He stated that he had received backing from family and friends is a blessing.
Advice to young Creators.
Subtain learned by trial and error when he first started working in social media and had no one to look up to in Pakistan. But now that he’s settled into his niche, he’s ready to offer some advise to those who are just getting started with social media.
If you want to do something in life, you must be determined. There will be many challenges ahead, and you must be bold enough to tackle them all. Just keep in mind that the path to your dream is not easy. So, even if there are no immediate benefits, staying on task and working hard is crucial.
Creating a strong team while creating content. Trusting the proper people will take you a long way, and in order to do so, you must carefully select your team. That does not include everyone you know, but only those who are qualified, hardworking, and skilled in their respective industries.
Time management, time management is very important. If you say, “I can’t give time to this social media for content creation,” then you are a very lazy person in my opinion, because it is impossible to be busy 24/7. If you look around the world, you will notice that people who are always on top manage their time and work hard.
