What an awesome host (knowledgeable, well articulated, courageous, and gives ample time to the guest) what an honest conversation and what fun to watch!!!
Certainly better than the podcast that Muzamil Hasan, Junaid Akram and the guy from TCM did with Imran Khan who were too scared to ask tough questions and who only talked of vision and ideologies. I'm glad you guys at least addressed some practicalities.
Muzamil also did a podcast with Mifta Ismail, You might want to listen to that. Imran Khan has this aura it's really tough with him. Have you come across this big of a personality I bet not.
What makes you think I haven't watched it? Watched it when PTI was in power and Mifta wasn't even finance minister yet. Alhamdulillah have met many PTI members which is exactly why I believe IK is all vision, fudging with numbers, string social media marketing and no practicality
The knowledge of this man combined with his honesty with the country that led him to make decisions that were opposed to his party, really is a strong evidence of his true patriotism.
Nah, i don't want him to do that. Because after that you have more pressure from media house and pemra. He can talk freely here without any hesitation. So keep up the content. Best of luck, Shehzad.
This is the first time I came across your channel and I am seriously hooked to it !! Samjh Nahi arahi kun kun se podcasts dekho !! Brilliant Stuff Man !! Keep it Up and hopefully the channel grows !
@The Pakistan Experience Pakistani is an azeem kaum, Pakistani have jazba, Pakistani have iman as Muslims have iman, ISI No 1 in world, Pak Army no 1 in world. Pakistan is made for kalma. Even Saudi Arabia is not made for kalma.Insha Pakistan will rule the world. Islam will rule the world. Allah o akbar and boommm is not fascism, killing non muslims in Pakistan is not facist, Pakistan made for Muslims is not fascism. A party whose name is Muslims league is not fascist. BJP( Bharatiya Janta Party) is a facist. Good joke by madsara chap jihadis of Pakistan. Pakistanis can have a country for Muslims, but Hindus can not have Hindustan for Hindus. Islamic terrorists are preaching on fascism.
Absolutely love your content. I've stayed away from Pakistani media for so long because of 'reasons' and the only content I actually enjoy is you and syed muzammil. You're a damn gem. Also, please get him back on the show soon!
Just finished listening to all of it, my perception of the major issues of Pakistan has been significantly altered. It was so refreshing hearing about an actual plan on tackling the balance of payment deficit from a former finance minister, not to mention his emphasis on bettering education and health in Pakistan. Despite all the backlash he faced from others and within the party, he stood by what he deemed correct, and that did ultimately prevent Pakistan from defaulting. 👏👏 I've also always been on edge as to whether I should declare Pakistan a hopeless state or attempt to reform the system by working within it with whatever capacity I can; Miftah sahab's entire talk made me consider the latter. Absolutely enlightening 1 hr 40 mins, where I was hooked on every word of this discussion. Shehzad thank you for moderating it so well, especially giving Miftah sahab space to derail the convo for a bit so that he could say what he wanted. Excellent content as always, keep going dude, can't wait to see this sort of gem reach more and more people ♥♥
The best guest one could've had in current circumstances. I'm your follower since the start and it's very refreshing to see you finally getting the recognition you always deserved. This podcast was a great one, you asked many confrontational yet justified questions, always a treat to watch it. Homeopathic conversations don't cut it no more. Keep doing the great work bro.

Miftah you legend ! Great podcast. Fills me with hope, also with a bit of rage as again a karachite is not utilized for the betterment of pak. We have so much to give, just give us a shot and a free hand
Best strategy, sab politicians ko bulao, yehi sawal pocho chun chun key … key bhai what was your thinking behind your decision, phir awaam can decide better to elect or not elect them next time. I think this provided clarity and would elect Mifta next time bcs you can resonate with them
Good to listen to Miftah Ismael's side of the story. Thank you for inviting him. I wasn't able to follow technical parts of the conversation, but got a good idea nevertheless. I was hoping you would talk about the shrinking middle class in this country. Not too long ago, people in white collar 9 to 5 jobs had enough savings to buy a small house, but now 90% of people doing 9 to 5 jobs cannot have such savings with that sort of purchasing power. So many engineering graduates have no jobs, and those who do, are barely able to cover their expenses.
Too good! U need huge applause to put up this wonderful podcast! I think, if Miftah is given 4-5 years with powerful backing, we can see real change here in Pakistan.. but that's not happening 😑
Ah yes, that ‘powerful backing’ of those fascist who brought the Importeds to power and crushed public opinion - poor Miftah doing his best to save us all while minting millions through corruption :)
I am an Indian, and I can tell you one thing which actually surprises me is the low tax rate and I am not saying coverage it's the rate. Highest bracket is too low municipal taxes are almost none on top of it there are no special economic zones that can boost exports. But I really appreciate the honesty of former minister and host did a great job to keep the discussion light thoroughly enjoyed it.

Excellent interview 👍🌟❤️ Thank you Miftah Ismail and super thank you to Shehzad for being present on the social media. God bless you with greater success and more opportunities to inform,educate and inspire people 👍🌟❤️
I am Indian watching Pakistani media closely, very intelligent conversation, I think Pakistani politicians army don’t want to take country’s responsibility, Miftah Ismael is a intelligent guy, in ppp hina rabani khar.Both are die hart party workers Party uses Miftah Ismael as a pawn, even though he still satisfy.
I was and am still totally in support of Miftah's fiscal and monetary policy. Pakistan is at the point where the sour pill must be swallowed in order to see a better economic tomorrow. Unfortunately the associated political suicide is not palatable to ANY Pakistani politician. I don't think Ishaq Dar will do anything other than implement a politically convenient yet economically debilitating policy. Good podcast nonetheless! I'm glad he was straightforward and shrewd in his responses at the same time.
He might have made some mistakes, but he served the country sincerely like a true patriot. We are all susceptible to making mistakes, but Miftah genuinely did what he thought was the right thing to do for the country. He'll be remembered with good words.
Miftah says that when he spoke about importing tomatoes and onions from India, India did not give a favourable response. What favourable response was he expecting? His own Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif had already said that there would be no trade with India until article 370 was reinstated. Did you think that India should say that now that you are willing to import tomatoes in onions he will reinstate article 370. Indian never said it is unwilling to export to Pakistan but when Pakistani politicians keep saying no you cannot import from India why should India jump into this debate as though it somehow benefits India. The notion that Pakistani politicians have that somehow if they agree to trade with India they are doing India a favour and India should respond to the favour by giving some concessions on Kashmir is bizarre. You should trade if it benefits your own citizens - you are not doing India a favour by importing vegetables which reduce your own inflation. Separately he says he does not follow BJP much. Fine that is his choice. But without knowing BJP policies how can he blindly dub its government fascist? You run a great VLOG but you also make sweeping statements about Modi being a fascist. If you have a basis for your opinion, you have never shared it. Under PM Modi, there has been universaluzation of households having bank accounts, toilets, electrucity, cooking gas, health insurance, piped water. All schemes are means tested and no discrimination against anyone based on religion, language or caste. Under his government there has been huge empowerment of women and reduction in female foeticide. Miftah says PM Modi's politics is based on Muslim hatred so difficult to imrove relations with such a government. Can he explain why Nawaz waa invited to his swearing in ceremony in 2014 and he visited Lahore in 2015 to attend Maryam's daughter's wedding Why has his government resolved boundary disputes with Bangladesh? If he is as anti-Muslim as Mftah says, why did he give wheat, medicines and vaccines to Afghanistan? Why doea his government have excellent relations with Bangladesh and Maldives and Iran and Afghanistan and.GCC nations and central asian nations and Indonesia - all mualim majority nations? BJP wins some state elections and loses others. Is that fascism? There were 6 IITs until 2014. Now there are 23. Same thing with IIMs and AIIMs. Nor has he invested simply in tertiary education which benefits few. He has invested big time in skills develipment. Modi haa invested big time in public education and healrh. Also in financial inclusion, last mile delivery of service, e-governance (to reduce corruption for access to government services), in improving ease of doung business and in dramatically improving the startup ecosystem. Thousands of Indian kids from lower middle class background have become dollar millionaires through startups. Major reforms in taxation (not just in tax rates but also simplifying administratuon) has meant much greater formalization and higher tax collwction without punitive rates. Huge investments in renewable energy and reforms in policies surrounding foreign direct investments. There were 33 million retail accounts investing in Indian stock exchange in 2014 when Modi came to power which has tripled to over 100 million by improving regulations and reducing insider trading and manipulation. By contrast barely 0.25 million retail accounts exist in Pakiatani stock exchange. There have also been major real estate reforms in India making housing more affordable and reducing the speculative bubble. People investing in stock market instead of real estate makes the economy competitive. It also broadens beneficiaries of corporate profits. Please explain why not learning from India is a matter of pride for Miftah and something that you endorse?
Hats off...! Miftah Ismail is an asset not only of PML-N but of out country! And as usual, superbly carried out the whole podcast Shehzad bhai... Wish TPE more success
Again thanks for bringing him. He would have changed the economic course of Pakistan in five years. I wish k ap Prime minister ko invite kren, ya foreign minister ko.
I wish we have the politicians like miftah ismail. Even with the difference of opinion from other parties he delivers facts and not just the hate and emotional politics.
Both Host and Guest were outstanding. I enjoyed this interview in its entirety. Pakistan economy is totally linked on our quality training and productivity.

Amazing yar. Miftah Ismail, as usual, threw straight facts. TPE is becoming the trendsetter of how to conduct podcasts. Brilliant work Shahzad, thank you very much.
Thank you for the excellent and informative interview. Miftah Sahib is indeed a rarity among politicians who calls the spade a spade and does not try to pull the wool over the eyes of people. Well said and well done. We wish you all that is best.
Was waiting for this for a while. Excellent interview and very nicely hosted, Shehzad. I will say that the 1.5 hrs of conversation gives both speakers a nice, calm, relaxed space to speak their piece at length and dissect issues without going for quick sound bytes and talking over each other (which I despise coz its so rude). You also speak to your guests thoughtfully, and you care about their answers which makes it so good to listen to. Keep up the great work!
One thing I like about your podcast is that you didn't throw just googly and Yorkers like those TCM and junaid akram etc did with imran khan unlike you literally asked miftah ismail some tough and straight forward questions.
The only issue is that he uses the word fascist for an elected Prime Minister, and, I think that the Pakistanis were under the impression that only they had the monopoly on being difficult to deal with, I think they need a reality check with the thought you can fool some people some times not all people all......
@@babkamath true. Their subsequent governments have been more or less fascist in nature. Shehzad has himself made on video on how previous imran khan govt satisfies the criteria of a fascist govt
Bilkul sahi kaha ha. Government job is not to run businesses, its inly duty is to create laws, ecosystem level playing field, provide security and justice
I can't bring myself to hate on miftah bhai. I might hated him for his policies regarding the situation but from his perspective it was his best course of action. But he's a genuine dude
Podcast is really worthy. Mr. Miftah is a well deserving economist and justified his position as a FM. Besides he is enlightened and very progressive in nature with clean soul. Pakistan should utilized and materialized this level brain and policy makers for the sake of revival of economy in Pakistan. Superb Mr.Miftah
Shahzad, it was a very insightful light podcast. Its been more than year now and things have changed, would request u to invite Sir Miftah once again and make podcast with him.
Pakistan should focus on creating more and more Madrasas and increase population. Once there are 1 billion muslims in Pakistan, they can do jihad against kafirs and do Gajwa-e-Hind. This is the shortest way to become superrich and developed as India would be a developed nation in next 20 years and including India would make Pakistan developed and super rich.
Brilliant episode and well done by host for asking good questions (and throwing in jokes here and there) - Please do more episodes with Dr Miftah . He is such a smart and humble person to listen to
Good job done Miftah!!! You really delivered and performed with grace. Your name is brighter to shine in part of Pakistan history. But please Cocomo ko thora sa tou sasta ker dein.
He said modi govt is neo fascist,😂😂😂😂😂 Jab tak ye bat na sun lu ,yakin hu nhi hota ki samne wala pakistani h 😝😝🤣🤣 Great guys (pakistani) keep it up . Proud of your knowledge about India 😂😂
@@abhaypatel4292 We never claimed to be secular states. The states which are secular on paper are killing their minorities every single day, but you are andh-bakht Modi Neo-Fascist BJP supporter, of course you are blind and can't see that.
Love your content, bcz some of podcasters are wasting out precious time. As they bring someone and not talking efficiently just they make conversation on their selves who are they what are they how's their journey started, means who cares about ?
I have great respect and support for this guy in my heart and I belive everybody who understands the situation he became finance minister would appreciate him too...though the party did what they have to for political reasons
The unpopular decision taken by him was tough for him and for his performance but he took it for the sack of the country. It symbolizes his intentions and his love to our country. Every politicians take decision in favour of self interest but he did it contrarily. Appreciate Thanks for good content
This is the first time I'm watching your UA-cam channel bcz of Sir Mifta Ismail and I'm impressed with the way you have carried out the whole podcast amazingly. This shows you are a well-educated person, I request you to make more informative videos with such amazing personalities as Miftah Sir.
I have been waiting for this tell morning. finally watched it completely. although i am marxist and don't belive in his solutions but yes i like him. he is a honest man
A candid and thought provoking discussion. My request to the content developers of this channel, if they can cover following topics, it can be uplift the overall knowledge of a common man: - Rights of Citizens - Taxation and current state - How much important is education and how to make it more accessible. Curriculum and modern day requirements - Making things simple to understand with respect to Business and Finance for a common man - What's a government machinery - Government Institutes - Role of an individual
What an enlighten discussion ! Miftah Ismail has shown his true pragmatic side which is exactly what Pakistan needed. Thoroughly enjoyed it. Just one thing I don't know about the Host's name but he needs to be a little formal. I mean there were instances in this podcast where Miftah Ismail showed class and the host was losing it left and right. Also, dress up dude. Don't buy expensive clothes but at least buy clothes that look good on you. All the best 👍🏼
@@ThePakistanExperience Hello, great job I must say ! Bhai I apologize if my statement has offended you. I just felt that when you are in a room with a man of this intellect who has served Pakistan, I guess Walima na b ho, dressing properly wouldn't hurt that much ! And why do we have to be dressed up for walima only ? Anyways, keep up the good work 👏 🙌
Hi shazad, He had the bitter pill ,but his government didn't want the patient to get better. Hope sanity prevails and things change on the otherside of border .

Bring Shahbaz, Maryam, Bilawal, Zardari, and Nawaz on any podcast and than compare. Miftah is just a random guy.
Khan’s was better!
He'd have done the same in Khan's podcast.
The knowledge of this man combined with his honesty with the country that led him to make decisions that were opposed to his party, really is a strong evidence of his true patriotism.
Is that why he continues to collect a pay cheque from the Importeds by staying on as a minister in a grossly bloated and criminal filled cabinet?
Shehzad deserves to have a Last Week Tonight type show on TV, would absolutely kill it. You're on a roll brother 👏
If he gets that kind of show then he will picked up by our boys.
For that you need to be funny

Separately he says he does not follow BJP much. Fine that is his choice. But without knowing BJP policies how can he blindly dub its government fascist?
You run a great VLOG but you also make sweeping statements about Modi being a fascist. If you have a basis for your opinion, you have never shared it. Under PM Modi, there has been universaluzation of households having bank accounts, toilets, electrucity, cooking gas, health insurance, piped water. All schemes are means tested and no discrimination against anyone based on religion, language or caste. Under his government there has been huge empowerment of women and reduction in female foeticide. Miftah says PM Modi's politics is based on Muslim hatred so difficult to imrove relations with such a government. Can he explain why Nawaz waa invited to his swearing in ceremony in 2014 and he visited Lahore in 2015 to attend Maryam's daughter's wedding Why has his government resolved boundary disputes with Bangladesh? If he is as anti-Muslim as Mftah says, why did he give wheat, medicines and vaccines to Afghanistan? Why doea his government have excellent relations with Bangladesh and Maldives and Iran and Afghanistan and.GCC nations and central asian nations and Indonesia - all mualim majority nations?
BJP wins some state elections and loses others. Is that fascism?
There were 6 IITs until 2014. Now there are 23. Same thing with IIMs and AIIMs. Nor has he invested simply in tertiary education which benefits few. He has invested big time in skills develipment. Modi haa invested big time in public education and healrh. Also in financial inclusion, last mile delivery of service, e-governance (to reduce corruption for access to government services), in improving ease of doung business and in dramatically improving the startup ecosystem. Thousands of Indian kids from lower middle class background have become dollar millionaires through startups. Major reforms in taxation (not just in tax rates but also simplifying administratuon) has meant much greater formalization and higher tax collwction without punitive rates. Huge investments in renewable energy and reforms in policies surrounding foreign direct investments. There were 33 million retail accounts investing in Indian stock exchange in 2014 when Modi came to power which has tripled to over 100 million by improving regulations and reducing insider trading and manipulation. By contrast barely 0.25 million retail accounts exist in Pakiatani stock exchange. There have also been major real estate reforms in India making housing more affordable and reducing the speculative bubble. People investing in stock market instead of real estate makes the economy competitive. It also broadens beneficiaries of corporate profits.
Please explain why not learning from India is a matter of pride for Miftah and something that you endorse?
Summary bhej, bc itna lamba kon parhega
Hats off...! Miftah Ismail is an asset not only of PML-N but of out country!
And as usual, superbly carried out the whole podcast Shehzad bhai...
Wish TPE more success
Apart from the politics and differences this has been a very mature interview.
Again thanks for bringing him. He would have changed the economic course of Pakistan in five years.
I wish k ap Prime minister ko invite kren, ya foreign minister ko.
Comment for algorithm. Brilliant content, as always!
@@ThePakistanExperience 😂😂
I wish we have the politicians like miftah ismail. Even with the difference of opinion from other parties he delivers facts and not just the hate and emotional politics.
Both Host and Guest were outstanding. I enjoyed this interview in its entirety. Pakistan economy is totally linked on our quality training and productivity.

Amazing yar.
Miftah Ismail, as usual, threw straight facts.
TPE is becoming the trendsetter of how to conduct podcasts.
Brilliant work Shahzad, thank you very much.
MUFTAH ISMAIEL IK MOHIBBAY WATAN PAKISTANI,REGARDS❤
Thank you for the excellent and informative interview. Miftah Sahib is indeed a rarity among politicians who calls the spade a spade and does not try to pull the wool over the eyes of people. Well said and well done. We wish you all that is best.
Was waiting for this for a while. Excellent interview and very nicely hosted, Shehzad. I will say that the 1.5 hrs of conversation gives both speakers a nice, calm, relaxed space to speak their piece at length and dissect issues without going for quick sound bytes and talking over each other (which I despise coz its so rude).
You also speak to your guests thoughtfully, and you care about their answers which makes it so good to listen to. Keep up the great work!
One thing I like about your podcast is that you didn't throw just googly and Yorkers like those TCM and junaid akram etc did with imran khan unlike you literally asked miftah ismail some tough and straight forward questions.
Miftah is not the current sitting PM
I am starting to like your podcasts. I came to watch syed muzammil but staying here for the quality of your work. Keep it up
Very good podcast. Miftah Ismail minces no words, a trait missing in Pak pol-army leadership.
The only issue is that he uses the word fascist for an elected Prime Minister, and, I think that the Pakistanis were under the impression that only they had the monopoly on being difficult to deal with, I think they need a reality check with the thought you can fool some people some times not all people all......
@@babkamath true. Their subsequent governments have been more or less fascist in nature. Shehzad has himself made on video on how previous imran khan govt satisfies the criteria of a fascist govt
Great video! But too many ads!! Please do something about it. Getting ads after every few minutes.
Bilkul sahi kaha ha. Government job is not to run businesses, its inly duty is to create laws, ecosystem level playing field, provide security and justice
Miftah is such a lovely guy. He seems to be honest. Thank you so much for bringing him on the show
I can't bring myself to hate on miftah bhai. I might hated him for his policies regarding the situation but from his perspective it was his best course of action. But he's a genuine dude
Miftah Sb's and your laugh is sooooo contagious 😂
Podcast is really worthy.
Mr. Miftah is a well deserving economist and justified his position as a FM.
Besides he is enlightened and very progressive in nature with clean soul.
Pakistan should utilized and materialized this level brain and policy makers for the sake of revival of economy in Pakistan.
Superb Mr.Miftah
You made so much assessment on basis of one interview
This is one of the best podcasts I've ever listened to! It was pleasure listening to Miftah sb. I'm not a PML-N supporter but I admire him.
Shahzad, it was a very insightful light podcast. Its been more than year now and things have changed, would request u to invite Sir Miftah once again and make podcast with him.
🙌
The first time, I agreed with a PMLN leader!
Genuine suggestion, pls bring uzair as a co-host in these type of podcasts. He'll bring much more to the conversation.
@@ThePakistanExperience well that sucks but kya hi kar sakte he fir
Great content!. Long live Miftah sb and Shehzad bhai
Don't ignore unheard voice of consumers . Think from consumer perspective that consume your podcasts. Thankyou Sir. You are doing great job.
This will entirely change how masses know Miftah sir. In this polarized society, this podcast is doing the work of enlightenment. ❤️❤️
@@ThePakistanExperience this will entirely change your profile my brother and I'm so proud of you Sindhi supremacists hahaha
Kindly bring him again and also Asad umer side by side
No need for political debate just question answer session a timer given to both of them
Pakistan should focus on creating more and more Madrasas and increase population. Once there are 1 billion muslims in Pakistan, they can do jihad against kafirs and do Gajwa-e-Hind. This is the shortest way to become superrich and developed as India would be a developed nation in next 20 years and including India would make Pakistan developed and super rich.
Minister Ismail seems to be an honest and patriotic person. Very hard to find in Pakistani politics.
One of the most sane voices in the current political spectrum of Pakistan
Brilliant episode and well done by host for asking good questions (and throwing in jokes here and there) - Please do more episodes with Dr Miftah . He is such a smart and humble person to listen to
🙌
Best podcast I've ever watched mifta's views are outstanding
Meri life ka pehla podcast hai jo complete sunaa aur Samjh b ayi
🙌
Big round of applause for this candid podcast.
Good job done Miftah!!! You really delivered and performed with grace. Your name is brighter to shine in part of Pakistan history. But please Cocomo ko thora sa tou sasta ker dein.
in 2018 PTI was saying the same about PMLNs gov. same BS different characters (definite Default!!)
everyone with a modicum of knowledge of economics appreciated what miftah ismail did during his tenure
He said modi govt is neo fascist,😂😂😂😂😂
Jab tak ye bat na sun lu ,yakin hu nhi hota ki samne wala pakistani h 😝😝🤣🤣
Great guys (pakistani) keep it up . Proud of your knowledge about India 😂😂
A country with total about 31 temple and gurudwara operational definitely should shut it's mouth talking about others
@@abhaypatel4292 We never claimed to be secular states. The states which are secular on paper are killing their minorities every single day, but you are andh-bakht Modi Neo-Fascist BJP supporter, of course you are blind and can't see that.
Pakistanis need much needed education
Love your content, bcz some of podcasters are wasting out precious time. As they bring someone and not talking efficiently just they make conversation on their selves who are they what are they how's their journey started, means who cares about ?
I have great respect and support for this guy in my heart and I belive everybody who understands the situation he became finance minister would appreciate him too...though the party did what they have to for political reasons
Muftah Sahib I do not know you personally, but I can say you are a honest man.
Miftah Sahab... you really did well... Respect for you Sir..💐
The unpopular decision taken by him was tough for him and for his performance but he took it for the sack of the country. It symbolizes his intentions and his love to our country. Every politicians take decision in favour of self interest but he did it contrarily. Appreciate
Thanks for good content
This is the first time I'm watching your UA-cam channel bcz of Sir Mifta Ismail and I'm impressed with the way you have carried out the whole podcast amazingly. This shows you are a well-educated person, I request you to make more informative videos with such amazing personalities as Miftah Sir.
@@ThePakistanExperience For sure, keep working. Stay Blessed🏵️
I have been waiting for this tell morning. finally watched it completely. although i am marxist and don't belive in his solutions but yes i like him. he is a honest man
A candid and thought provoking discussion. My request to the content developers of this channel, if they can cover following topics, it can be uplift the overall knowledge of a common man:
- Rights of Citizens
- Taxation and current state
- How much important is education and how to make it more accessible. Curriculum and modern day requirements
- Making things simple to understand with respect to Business and Finance for a common man
- What's a government machinery
- Government Institutes
- Role of an individual
I am very anti Muslim League (N), but i 'll say with all my heart that Mr. Miftah Ismail is a Gem, May Allah bless him.
Shahzad bhai cocomo zyada karwalete yaar, missed opportunity 🤣 Jokes aside, great to se you and this podcast progressing so far!
Just heard you first time . I am from India . Punjab .
Miftah is such a cool guy!!!
Appreciate his style of convincing ..explaininng economics concepts in very simple way ...
Loved this podcast.. ❤
What an enlighten discussion ! Miftah Ismail has shown his true pragmatic side which is exactly what Pakistan needed. Thoroughly enjoyed it. Just one thing I don't know about the Host's name but he needs to be a little formal. I mean there were instances in this podcast where Miftah Ismail showed class and the host was losing it left and right. Also, dress up dude. Don't buy expensive clothes but at least buy clothes that look good on you.
All the best 👍🏼
@@ThePakistanExperience Hello, great job I must say ! Bhai I apologize if my statement has offended you. I just felt that when you are in a room with a man of this intellect who has served Pakistan, I guess Walima na b ho, dressing properly wouldn't hurt that much ! And why do we have to be dressed up for walima only ?
Anyways, keep up the good work 👏 🙌
Mufta Ismail is true gentlman with golden heart
The best interview I listened to , after a long time
Thank you for your service
Hi shazad,
He had the bitter pill ,but his government didn't want the patient to get better.
Hope sanity prevails and things change on the otherside of border .
Miftah is really a fine finance minister
I am also from India
He literally saved pakistan from going bankrupt
@@AmanSingh-cc2ci hahaja😂 chor hai sala
Great. At 39:28 He was talking about the Forward Rate Agreements.
Miftah, you will be remembered in history for the work you've done in your tenure.
Miftah is the hero. Like in Sholay movie there was Saambah. He had the best shot but minded his business 😂
I am happy for sehzad. You are doing Wonderful work.
❤️❤️
Excellent, and thought-provoking. Tha k you!
One of my questions about land reforms got asked! Yayyyy
