In the past three years, nearly 2.9 million Pakistanis have moved abroad, according to data from the Protector & Migrants Department.
Rising inflation, lawlessness, unemployment, and chall_enges in starting businesses have driven people from all walks of life, including doctors, engineers, IT experts, teachers, bankers, and skilled workers, to seek better opportunities overseas.
The migrants paid over Rs. 26.6 billion in protector fees to the government while leaving. Many reported that local salaries no longer meet the cost of living, making it increasingly difficult to sustain livelihoods in Pakistan.
