Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Senator Ishaq Dar chaired a meeting on Friday, November 13, to review the restructuring of the Pakistan National Shipping Corporation (PNSC). During the session, Senator Dar emphasized that the restructuring process must be anchored in professionalism and aligned with global standards.
