Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan shared his vision for the country's future cities on Saturday.
Taking to Twitter, the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf leader tweeted a picture of a Pakistani city in the future, featuring tall buildings that will serve as 'vertical cities', allowing for more green spaces.
Khan added that as being one of the most environmentally-threatened countries in the world, Pakistan's arable land is being eaten up by housing societies, which will have grave consequences on the country's food security.

He even mentioned that the government was in the process of making laws to allow building to 'go as high' according to international safety standards.
