ISLAMABAD: The Pakistan Economy Watch (PEW) only way to end dependence over IMF and pave way for national development is to improve the external sector.
Pakistan can never be a prosperous country unless its exports and more than the imports for which concrete steps are needed, it said.
The government should facilitate export sector while review all the free trade and preferential trade agreements, said Dr. Murtaza Mughal, President PEW.
He said that FTA with China is the single most damaging deal finalized by the government as interests of the country were compromised to benefit the business community of the friendly country.
Dr. Murtaza Mughal said that widening export-import gap has become a threat, therefore, the government should immediately re-examine its strategy to reduce the cost of doing business.
