Pakistan pension reforms — who they will affect and how
Nukta Correspondent Sheraz Ahmed breaks down the changes
Pakistan is finally taking concrete steps to address its burgeoning pension problem, and it's starting with a ban on double pensions.

However, the government has now changed the rules. Nukta Correspondent Sheraz Ahmed breaks down the changes.
