IMPORTANT:
          Whenever you change foreign exchange in Pakistan,
          I request you to kindly, always insist for issuence
          of an enchashment certificate/receipt from the
          the authorities. This helps you, your family and
          above all-----our common homeland------PAKISTAN.

NOTE:
      Rates of major currencies like US Dollar,UK Pound-stg.,
      etc.,are aired each friday. Other currencies are randomly
      chosen and rates of all of them are not aired each week.
      Therefore, rates of some of these currencies can be one
      to two weeks old.
