OUT OF THE BOX STRUCTURAL REFORMS FOR PAKISTAN

“Zafar represents the dawn of a new era. Perhaps we are coming out of medieval times of silent policymaking by the well-connected to putting out ideas and developing conversations on important issues. I commend Zafar for contributing to a conversation on national policymaking.”

“These articles not only analyze Pakistan’s economic challenges but also offer valuable insights and evidence-based recommendations for policymakers and stakeholders alike, making them essential reading for anyone interested in the country’s economic future.”

Vice Chancellor
Beaconhouse National University

“Out of the Box” is more than a compilation of economic opinions; it is a mosaic of experiences, ideas, and resilience. Zafar Masud’s miraculous survival serves as a metaphorical lens through which readers, without negating the challenges facing Pakistan’s economy, are encouraged to adopt an OOTB approach to rescue the economy and strengthen Pakistan’s societal fabric.”
