For countries like Pakistan, crisis management is not merely a technical exercise; it is a test of governance, leadership and public trust. Similarly, economic crises repeatedly highlight overreliance on imports, a narrow tax base and unsustainable debt cycles. Effective crisis management begins with leadership that communicates clearly and acts decisively. That means investing in early warning systems for floods and heatwaves, data-driven economic planning, emergency health infrastructure and strategic reserves of essential commodities. Crisis management can no longer be improvised, it must be institutionalized.
