Healthcare in Islamabad: A Prime Reason in Islamabad for a Living

City also has a good health care infrastructure for the public. Public and private sector health facilities are available. In government hospitals, there is a lack of health facilities. Treatment at government hospitals is less expensive that’s why more people prefer to visit government hospitals. In private hospitals, like Shifa International Hospital, and Quaid–e-Azam International Hospital, world standard health facilities are provided. But treatment in these hospitals is very expensive and not possible for everyone to avail. It is therefore paramount to provide all the citizens with health facilities without any class difference.

Global Changes

Though Pakistani culture is rich we were lacing in terms of technology. After years of this lag now there is an improvement in the Pakistani technology ecosystem. Startup boom seen in the year 2021 and more money raised than previous years. Huge invest came from across Asia and Middle East investors. This rapid increase in the technology sector is not accidental but due to the shifting of ground dynamics and results of a pandemic. The certain increase in Pakistan’s tech ecosystem is due to the following three reasons:-

Improvement in the security situation

Investment and international business remain away from Pakistan during the last decade because of the participation war against terror with America as a front-line partner. However, due to improved security situation and continued fencing on Pak Afghan border, encourage foreign investors to invest in the country, especially from China. Moreover, improving mobile connectivity has brought a technology revolution in the region. The number of mobile users jump from 114 m to 180 million and have access to 3G and 4G data.

Legal changes are also improve Pakistani Technology Ecosystem

A major contribution that enables the tech ecosystem in Pakistan is legal and regularity changes. Previously, Pakistani law does not permit foreign companies to own local companies. Now in the year 2020, state banks issue regulations in which foreign investors can support the local startups. Now Pakistani startups can hold foreign companies with ownership stake in the country. These changes in regulation help to open doors for a flood of investment in the country.

Improve mobile connectivity

Pakistan is still on the list of those countries which is under development in the tech sector. However rise in the use of mobile apps like Easypaisa, JazzCash account, and online hotel booking apps shows great progress and interest of the government on this side. This also gives rise to the Pakistani technology ecosystem.

Agricultural Sector

The agriculture sector included growing crops, raising animals, harvesting fish, and other natural habitats. This sector considers the Pakistani economy’s backbone. It provides not only food to the population but raw material to leather, textile, oil, and sugar industry as well. Presently developed countries once heavenly dependent on their agriculture. They gradually transform their industry from agriculture to industry-based.

Pakistan is an agricultural country and considers the largest sector of the economy. It has great potential for a variety of crops. Two major crops season is Kharif and Rabi. Kharif season started in April and lasted till June. Major crops of this season included Moong, Mash, Rice, Sugarcane, and Bajra. Rabi season started from October to December. It included Tobacco, Barley, Lentil wheat, and Gram.

Industrial Sector: Another Booster to the Economy of Pakistan

This sector includes all the manufacturing industries that make finished goods or products used further by other industries. This sector mostly depends upon the primary sector that either provides a product or raw material for final product production. Major industries of Pakistan are as under:

• Textile Industry
• Cement Industry
• Chemical industry
• Sugar industry

• Sports Industry
• Defense Industry
• Oil and Gas industry
• Surgical industry

Apart from the above, the hotel industry also plays a vital role in contributing economy of Pakistan. Famous hotels like Bella Hotel, Marriot, etc. all play a major contribution in generating revenue and building a good image around the world. Developed countries focus on their industry sector more than the agriculture sector. Countries with more industries have more opportunities for job employment.

Services Sector

This sector is better defined as it does not provide any tangible product but deliver services. This sector included warehouse, transportation, Software house, Professional services, and health care services. At present time, the Services sector consider healthier compared to agriculture and industrial. It is a very important sector because it is the backbone of both the above sectors.
