Good photographs of an excellent visit of MBS to Pakistan, it will be remembered for a long time. Credit of this visit goes to both PM Imran Khan and COAS Gen Bajwa for restoring trust that was badly damaged by the previous corrupt governments. (ACP - Garib Awam ki Awaz).

This was a great show of respect, hospitality and power to the most honored guest.
Pakistan just needed a leader and team like this to pull it all off. We have what it needs to be a great country and signs have started to show it.

Incredible confidence displayed for the leadership of Pakistan by not only visiting Pakistan but historic investments by government of Saudi Arabia has boosted the image of Pakistan and PM Imran Khan who is known being an honest leader. The best part of the visit was that three requests made by IK all in public interest being reduction in visa fee, immigration of Hajis in Pakistan and release of Pakistan Prisoners in jails in Saudi Arabia were all accepted by the Crown Prince wholeheartedly and the decisions implemented with in hours. Following those decisions there is a wave of euphoria amongst the affected people

It was not like a friend or guest coming to visit, more like Rich relative visiting and everyone trying to impress hoping that you will get something from the guy. Well, good luck.

He wants stability and peace for this region.
