Punjab Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz has congratulated Pakistanis in Japan on the country’s victory against India. She said good news is now beginning to emerge from Pakistan, and more will follow soon.

She was speaking at a gathering of the Pakistani community in Tokyo. Maryam said overseas Pakistanis play a big role in improving Pakistan’s economy. She reminded them that only a few months ago inflation had reached 38 percent. Now, under the PML-N government, it has fallen to 3 percent.

Maryam promised that Punjab’s infrastructure will soon reach Japanese standards. She said medicines are now available in government hospitals. She also announced the launch of the world’s largest sanitation project in the province under the name “Clean Punjab.”

According to her, 150,000 jobs have been created in Punjab to make the sanitation system effective. She added that Punjab will also adopt Japanese technology to improve cleanliness and the environment. “By building roads, Nawaz Sharif strengthened Pakistan’s economy,” she said.

The chief minister noted that people from across Pakistan now travel to Punjab for medical treatment. She revealed that South Asia’s largest cancer hospital, named the Nawaz Sharif Cancer Hospital, is under construction.

Maryam praised prime minister Shehbaz Sharif for his dedication to work. She said he starts his day at 7 a.m. and continues until midnight to solve the country’s problems. She further promised that five million houses will be built for the poor in the next five years. Out of these, 100,000 houses will be completed by December this year.

She also announced that by December, 1,100 electric buses will be on the roads of Punjab. The fare will be only Rs20. In addition, 50,000 educational scholarships will be awarded, and 100,000 laptops will be distributed to deserving students.
