Pakistan has successfully raised $3 billion through a dual-tranche Eurobond, marking the country’s largest-ever international bond transaction in a single issuance. The deal attracted nearly $6 billion in orders from global institutional investors, almost twice the amount Pakistan sought to raise.

The issuance consists of $1.75 billion through a 5.5-year bond at a 7.5% coupon and $1.25 billion through a 10-year bond at 7.9%.

Finance Minister Muhammad Aurangzeb called the transaction a major milestone and said strong international demand reflects renewed investor confidence in Pakistan’s economic direction. The government says the funds are part of a broader strategy to diversify financing, extend debt maturities and reduce refinancing risks.

The development comes amid a renewed debate in Pakistan over the creation of new provinces and administrative units.

Pakistan is considering replacing fingerprint verification for SIM card issuance with facial and iris recognition technology to tackle growing identity theft and financial fraud.

Officials say the current biometric system is outdated and vulnerable to misuse, despite authorities blocking over 18.2 million illegal SIMs in the past two and a half years.

The PTA, NCCIA, SBP, and Interior Ministry are exploring new security measures, including SIM issuance through NADRA’s PAKID system and stronger monitoring mechanisms. Authorities believe advanced verification methods could help curb illegal SIMs, cybercrime, and digital scams across the country.

The Punjab government has made fire safety training compulsory for staff working at all WASA disposal stations across the province.

Under the new directive, WASA officials will coordinate with Rescue 1122 to conduct hands-on training sessions covering fire prevention, hazard identification, and emergency response procedures. The move aims to improve preparedness and ensure a faster response during emergencies.

Authorities have also ordered video recordings and photographic documentation of all training sessions, with compliance reports to be submitted for centralised monitoring.

The initiative has been approved by the Housing, Urban Development & Public Health Engineering Department (HUD & PHED) to strengthen safety standards across Punjab's water and sanitation infrastructure.
