Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif and COAS Gen Raheel Sharif are bailing out country from the worst crisis of its history which has awakened hopes of the masses and business community, a business leader said Thursday.

The resolve of the PM, COAS, top judiciary and leaders of the major political parties has a positive impact on the sentiments of the business community, said SM Muneer, Chairman of TDAP and patron-in-chief of United Business Group.

Speaking to the business community, he said: “We fully back the decision to establish military courts and the decision of the chief justice to give preference to the terrorism-related cases.”

The veteran business leader said that tough decisions had boosted the rating of PM and COAS, adding that masses will never forget those who remained steadfast and those who demonstrated laxity at this critical juncture.

SM Muneer said the US had termed capital punishments as internal matter of Pakistan while the EU had expressed reservations which should be discounted as it was a matter of survival.
