Next finance minister will have to take ‘difficult decisions’: Asad Umar

ISLAMABAD: Finance Minister Asad Umar has said that the next person to see the finance ministry will have to take ‘difficult decisions’.

“I have firm belief that New Pakistan will emerge and Imran Khan will lead it,” said Asad Umar, while commencing addressing a press conference in Islamabad.
