Prime Minister Imran Khan said on Saturday that Pakistan’s overseas Pakistanis were its most valuable asset and that the government was making unprecedented efforts to assist their relocation.
He stated at a Roshan Digital Accounts meeting in Islamabad that the government’s actions, such as allowing Pakistanis living abroad to vote and allowing the online issuance of power of attorney and inheritance certificates, will have a far-reaching impact on their welfare and convenience.
The prime minister was told that over $3 billion has been sent through Roshan Digital Accounts so far.
He asked the State Bank of Pakistan to make it easy for foreign Pakistanis to send money to Pakistan through the internet in real time.
He also told the right people to start an effective marketing campaign to get Pakistanis living outside of Pakistan to use Roshan Digital Accounts.
Imran Khan said on January 21 that the Pakistan Tehreek e Insaf (PTI) administration has assisted overseas Pakistanis through the Roshan Digital Account.
He remarked this during a meeting with Ayoob Afridi, the Prime Minister’s Advisor on Overseas Pakistani Affairs, who paid the prime minister a visit in Islamabad.
Additionally, the prime minister said that for the first time in Pakistan’s history, a site was built to address the problems of foreign Pakistanis.
