Millions of Pakistani workers in Saudi Arabia contribute significantly through remittances, which bolster foreign exchange reserves and uplift countless households.
The enduring partnership between the two nations spans various sectors, including trade, energy, defense, and culture. Beyond economic collaboration, the shared cultural and religious bonds further deepen their ties, with Saudi Arabia being a key destination for Pakistani pilgrims.
The unchanged exchange rate ensures stability for remittance senders and receivers, protecting their hard-earned income from market fluctuations.
