LAHORE, (UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 3rd Mar, 2024) Kyrgyzstan Trade House in Pakistan (KTH) Chairman Meher Kashif Younis here Sunday greeted Shehbaz Sharif on becoming Prime Minister for the second timed.

He hoped that under his dynamic leadership, Pakistan would emerge as one of the leading economies in the world.

By promoting an environment of inclusivity and transparency, the government can build trust and confidence among the public and key decision-makers, he concluded.
