March 25, 2022 (MLN): The government package announced for IT companies and freelancers should be implemented as soon as possible so that the economy can reap its benefits, Federal Minister for Information Technology and Telecommunication Syed Aminul Haq said while attending a meeting of the board of directors of Pakistan Software Export Board (PSEB) on Friday.
