Dar predicts economic growth

Finance Minister Ishaq Dar declared Saturday that Pakistan will not default despite opposition propaganda.

"Pakistan won't default on opposition propaganda" (Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf). Mr. Dar told businessmen that the government isn't headed for default.

Imran Khan and other PTI officials anticipate Pakistan will default due to PML-"bad N's policies." Mr. Khan believes the economy can only be stabilized with new elections and a stable government.

Mr. Dar said the opposition hurts the country's economy. The opposition also spreads corruption rumors to deter foreign investment. The PTI should not meddle with the economy, he said.

The minister lamented his treatment during the past PML administration. "I was a terrorist." My transgression was improving the country's economy. Mr. Dar spent five years in self-exile in the UK.

He criticized the PTI and PML-N for devaluing the currency. Rupee devaluation During Shahid Khaqan Abbasi's tenure, I said the government couldn't stop currency depreciation if a devaluation policy was followed, he said.

Ishaq Dar criticized Miftah Ismail's policies. Mr Dar replaced Mr Ismail after returning from London in September and getting bail in a NAB corruption reference.

During his first weeks in government, the rupee rose, but now it's struggling. Its value versus the US dollar is over Rs230, and foreign cash, notably the USD and EUR, is scarce.

Mr. Dar pledged no more national economy experiments. "We're attempting to stabilize the economy," he said, adding that the administration has decided to ban wheat smuggling.

He said Pakistan should have been in the G-20 when the PML-N government ended based on its growth. Our economy is 46th in the world, he bemoaned.

When the PML-N took office in 2013, many feared the country was about to fail, but they avoided it.

Mr. Dar said the PDM government must work hard to improve macroeconomic indices.

“Here, the wealthiest get their loans cancelled off, but a few thousand impoverished widows' properties are seized,” he remarked.

Gohar Ijaz, a participant businessman, proposed a fee cut. He inquired why Turkey maintained interest rates low despite inflation.

The economy of Malaysia is expected to slow down in 2023.

According to statements made by analysts on Thursday, the economy of Malaysia will slow down in 2023 as a result of adverse external conditions and a slowdown in internal demand. According to Xinhua news agency, the Maybank Investment Bank Research said in a research that it anticipates Malaysia's full-year growth to drop to 4 percent in 2023 from the growth prediction of 8 percent in 2022. This is mostly reflective of a moderation in domestic demand. As pent-up spending from the complete economic re-opening evaporates next year, the research house anticipates slower growth in private consumption. This will be compounded by the effects of high inflation and high interest rates on the cost of living and real disposable income. It also forecasts a slowdown in the expansion of private consumption, which is expected to be in line with the reduced allocation for government operating expenses in Budget 2023. In addition, it was said that the forecast for slower global economic developmen...
