Happy Birthday, Ishrat Hussain! From crunching numbers at the State Bank of Pakistan to steering economic reforms with unmatched finesse, you've always known how to balance a budget—and perhaps even more impressively—balance seriousness and humor. Your insightful leadership has left an indelible mark on our economy; rumor has it that inflation rates tremble just hearing your name!May this birthday bring you as much joy as when you successfully navigated complex financial crises or delivered those legendary speeches filled with wit and wisdom. Here's hoping today’s celebrations are recession-proof: abundant cake slices without any deficit spending worries! Cheers!
