The present bad state of Pakistan’s economy calls for deft handling of the issue

KARACHI: The present bad state of Pakistan’s economy calls for deft handling of the issue. Now the country needs to either go to the International Monetary Fund for a bailout package or manage things on its own. Either way, the economy will likely experience more of inflation and currency depreciation.

The new finance minister will indeed have a tough task at hand to perform better than his predecessor.
