Can Pakistan Be Fixed? Economy, Governance and the Road Ahead | Ft. Shabbar Zaidi

Why has Pakistan remained trapped in recurring cycles of economic instability, political uncertainty, and institutional weakness? Why do crises keep returning despite repeated promises of reform? And, perhaps most importantly, what would it take to place the country on a path toward long-term stability and prosperity? This conversation brings together Shabbar Zaidi, former Chairman of the Federal Board of Revenue (FBR), renowned chartered accountant, author, and one of Pakistan’s most outspoken public intellectuals, and Umair Javed, entrepreneur and industrialist, for a candid discussion on the country’s economic and governance challenges.
