Economics
Pakistan was working to pay back an $11 billion loan from the IMF that was helping the nation cope with the global economic crisis. In return for the loan, Pakistan had promised to tighten economic policies and cut expenses.
The director of the IMF's Middle East and Central Asia Department, Masood Ahmed, says flood damage is hurting Pakistan's tax revenue, just as relief efforts are drastically raising expenses and the nation faces "massive" reconstruction costs.
