1. Bangladesh: $227,000,000

Article from 2012:

Around five million illegal immigrants have been residing in different cities of Pakistan for more than three decades.

The illegal immigrants, around two million Bangladeshis, 2.5 million Afghanis and 0.5 million other nationals including Africans, Iranians, Iraqis and Myanmars, are currently living in Quetta, Peshawar, Lahore, Islamabad, Rawalpindi and other cities, an official said on Monday.

3. Myanmar: $15,000,000

Article from 2003:

... there are some 200,000 more Rohingyas living in Pakistan.

4. Algeria: <$1,000,000

The website rounds remittances to a million dollars.

This means that the remittances to Algeria could be everything below a million dollars.

So it could be $ 900.000 but also $ 900.

In both cases it will be listed as < $1,000.000.

So it might not be many Algerians who remit a lot of money back to their country.

It could just be a few.

5. Iran: <$1,000,000

Algeria seems like a sounding error. The $125 million for Afghanistan seems low for the number of Afghans in Pakistan
