Political and economic chaos behind the move Former President recalls lost opportunity — ArifAlvi (@ArifAlvi) Live Events You Might Also Like: Consumer group slams Microsoft for leaving Windows 10 users stuck without options A legacy that transformed Pakistan's tech scene India-Pakistan trade tensions worsen the environment (You can now subscribe to our (You can now subscribe to our Economic Times WhatsApp channel Microsoft has officially exited Pakistan after 25 years of operations, according to the CEO who launched the tech giant's presence in the country in 2000. The company, which entered Pakistan on March 7, 2000, ended its operations without a formal announcement. 'Today, I learned that Microsoft is officially closing its operations in Pakistan. The last few remaining employees were formally informed and just like that, an era ends...' said Jawwad Rehman , Microsoft's founding country head in Microsoft has not issued a public explanation, the company's exit is widely linked to Pakistan's unstable economy, shifting political landscape, and weakening trade conditions. Frequent changes in government, high taxes, a fluctuating currency, and difficulties in importing technology have made the environment challenging for multinational trade deficit for FY2024 reached USD 24.4 billion. By June 2025, foreign exchange reserves had fallen to just USD 11.5 billion, directly affecting tech imports and overall investor President of Pakistan Dr. Arif Alvi also responded to the development, linking the exit to missed opportunities caused by political instability.'Microsoft's decision to shut down operations in Pakistan is a troubling sign for our economic future. I vividly recall February 2022, when Bill Gates visited my office. On behalf of the people of Pakistan, I had the honor of conferring the Hilal-e-Imtiaz on him for his remarkable contributions to polio eradication in our we sat in the lawn outside my office, our conversation spanned fascinating topics like AI, Quantum computing, gut microbiomes, longevity, and more. During our discussion, I asked him directly, 'Why isn't Microsoft investing in Pakistan?' He leaned in, sharing in confidence that he had just spoken with PM Imran Khan and arranged a call between the PM and Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella. In a hushed tone, he asked me to keep it quiet, revealing that 'all is set and within two months, the PM and I will announce a major Microsoft investment in Pakistan.'But then, everything went rapidly downhill. Regime change upended those plans, and the promise of investment slipped away. By October 2022, Microsoft chose Vietnam for its expansion, a decision in which they had initially favored Pakistan. The opportunity was now spirals in a whirlpool of uncertainty. There is increasing joblessness, our talent is migrating abroad, purchasing power has reduced, economic recovery in the 'awami' context feels like a distant & elusive business, Microsoft played a leading role in Pakistan's digital journey. It launched computer labs in rural schools, supported digital adoption among small businesses, and worked with educational institutions. 'We tried to give Pakistani youth a real shot at opportunity,' said Jawwad relations with India have also deteriorated. Bilateral trade dropped from USD 3 billion in 2018 to USD 1.2 billion in 2024. Essential imports such as medicines are now routed through third countries, increasing delays and costs. This growing geopolitical tension has further weakened Pakistan's investment climate.(Disclaimer: This article is based on LinkedIn and social media post on X. has not independently verified the claims made in the post and does not vouch for their accuracy.
