Only 6 years of PTI in KPK, already seen massive reforms specially free health for all.

as a gamer, i think this is great news. it would really improve Pakistan's exposure in this whole region, and the world. we already have gone great esports players that are among the best in the world especially in DOTA 2. esports industry is closely linked to IT industry as a whole, and it will be a boost for our entire IT sector which is very important for any powerful country. imagine if Pakistan one day has our own companies that makes our own computers, hardware, and be at the cutting edge of research and innovation in IT.
