Due to Brain drain Pakistan Suffers a lot. Experts in their respective fields are migrating from Pakistan to secure their future. The outflow of human capital spells gloom for the long-term growth of the country in near future.

One reason of Brain drain is that Pakistani companies have been hiring foreign experts for consulting their problems they are facing during their businesses, productions and other issues which causing huge loss of foreign exchange as the foreign consultants send back the money to their native countries.

Although the country has been receiving millions of dollars in shape of remittance which these experts send back to Pakistan every year, these remittance are not a substitute of the expertise of educated and expert people, he remarked.

The expatriate Pakistanis just visit the country to meet their relatives which is very disappointing for the future growth of the country, he observed. Four million Pakistani are settled in Europe, USA and Canada and not sending money back to the country. On the other hand a large number of Pakistani experts have been working in Middle East and Saudi Arabia, he said adding that due to strict nationality and citizenship procedures rate of remittances from these countries were higher than those from Europe, USA and Canada.

The non availability of good options is also a big reason for Brain drain. Our youth is feels disappointed about their future and many young people are thinking and planning to go abroad and get settled there. Govt. has to give attractive packages to the highly qualified Pakistanis to control the migration of such experts.
