The financial management team, including Dar, is focusing on US$ only. Surprisingly, PKR is strong against USD only and is losing against every other currency. Isn’t it against global economic laws? Does it happen anywhere in the world? Should we convert USD to EUR/GBP before sending to Pakistan to get the real exchange rate? The guy managing these exchange rates has no idea about market dynamics. His “Task” is reducing the USD value by a few paisa only. It is a controlled exchange rate rather than a free market.
