The positive and most spectacular podcast. Having such a Positivity and discussing a lot of topics especially the Green climate economy. The brain drain game will have always been happening but we have to struggle to make our country proud and focus on economic growth so we can enhance the world economyy. One of the Best podcasts.

These podcasts are one of its kind. REAL CONVERSATIONS THAT MATTER. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK. Hope this podcast series grows bigger 👍🏻

[@jrs2002]

I am an an Indian and watching this in 2023 and laughing as every prediction and comment about India that was done in the show about economy and all completely reversed.....'economically not sound"? They didn't imagine India would become the 5th largest GDP in the world and Indian diplomacy and foreign policies would be so strong to sway the West in a situation like Russia Ukraine war.....and Pakistan at the same time gripping with financial crisis with it's 'strong diplomacy'. Then comes the economic manipulation news. Why only search India? A simple googling of the question can show you numerous articles written by foreign media about China manipulating it's economic numbers as well ( domestic ones cannot do that because of the authoritative regime, unlike India). There's always such type of criticisms happening for these countries by various outlets. But does it affect the countries in anyway? No. Even IMF and WB statistics have shown Indian economy to be almost the same as that of the govt. numbers. And Pakistan won't buy any such news against China but would happily do so for India. Anyway, one thing he told right was to 'stay positive' as that's the only thing Pakistan can do now.

[@noobanimation8503]
