@Asad_Ashah Fully supported. The solution is to fix the image, not the mirror. Exempting State-Owned Enterprises from implementing IFRS is the wrong decision—technically, professionally, and morally.

Transparency and accountability cannot be achieved by lowering reporting standards.

@StateBank_Pak And yet the appetite for temporary deposits from friendly countries and endless IMF borrowings shows no sign of fading. Borrowing has become such a habit that charting a path toward genuine economic sovereignty seems to have been forgotten altogether.

[Ghazanfar Azzam @gazzam39]

@Asad_Ashah Absolutely, and they hold on tightly to the existing system because it serves their interests. They wouldn't let go...

@Asad_Ashah This reminds me of Aslam Beg's theory of Strategic Defiance that didn't work then but now seems to have worked well in Iran's case.

[Ghazanfar Azzam @gazzam39]

@Asad_Ashah Completely agree 👍

@aamir_ibrahim01 @WorldBankGroup @IMFNews @jazz_worldpk @JazzCash @MobilinkBank @VEONGroup One can’t help but ask what a telecom operator is doing in sovereign negotiations between the Government of Pakistan and the IMF.

It appears less about relevance and more about inserting oneself into the frame—an exercise in visibility and self-importance rather than substance

@Asad_Ashah Our 78-year existence stands in stark contradiction to the governance principles this country was meant to uphold. It is a profoundly sad story and a wasted opportunity—whether we choose to call it a nation, a country, or anything else.
