The program loans support the Government\u2019s reform agenda, Balance of Payment (BOP), and contribute to the macroeconomic stability of the country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dr. Kazim Niaz stated that the program would go a long way in realization of the Prime Minister\u2019s vision of greater involvement of the private sector in the development process. Mr. Yong Ye underscored the importance of a conducive enabling environment to foster strategic and fiscally affordable PPPs in Pakistan.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Islamabad : Dr. Kazim Niaz, Secretary Ministry of Economic Affairs and Mr. Yong Ye, Country Director, ADB signed the US$ 250 Million Promoting Sustainable Public\u2013Private Partnerships Program Loan to help&hellip; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":14569,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6,13],"tags":[350,103],"class_list":["post-14568","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-economy","category-main-stories","tag-asian-development-bank-adb","tag-federal-minister-for-finance"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/theasiantelegraph.global\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14568","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/theasiantelegraph.global\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/theasiantelegraph.global\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theasiantelegraph.global\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/8"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theasiantelegraph.global\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=14568"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/theasiantelegraph.global\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14568\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":14570,"href":"https:\/\/theasiantelegraph.global\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14568\/revisions\/14570"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theasiantelegraph.global\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/14569"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/theasiantelegraph.global\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=14568"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theasiantelegraph.global\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=14568"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theasiantelegraph.global\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=14568"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
