The new resolution headed by MPA Ziaullah Bangash of the Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf advised the provincial government to demand the federal government to do something about this missed opportunity and urge them to take steps to turn on Facebook’s monetization. It was also revealed that the Speaker of the National Assembly had already met with Facebook officials to discuss the matter.
Govt to take Steps for Turning on Facebook Monetization for 50mn Pakistani Users
No doubt, if this resolution turns into an action plan, Facebook users in the country could benefit from the positive usage of this social media platform and can earn a handsome amount of money. This is extremely important especially in days when most of us are stuck at home and many have lost their jobs due to the pandemic. While the Covid-19 affected our physical and mental health, it also opened new opportunities for us. During the pandemic, Pakistan witnessed a dynamic digitalization growth. While most of the counties were making innovative policies and regulations to support the sudden shift, Pakistan was also moving at the same pace.

Now, the government needs to be extra resilient to cover the gaps in terms of digital adoption in Pakistan. Also Read: Facebook Announces Social Audio Features for Users
