He also asked the envoys to work hard to bring FDI to Pakistan and it must be evaluated that which embassy facilitated how much FDI to Pakistan.
"Feedback that I have received from Saudi Arabia shows as if the staff is not working. The staff in Kuwait's NADRA office take bribes instead of guiding people and an official is involved in making wrong documents. I was shocked to learn all this," Khan said.Â
