Bill Revoking Overseas Pakistanis Voting Rights Presented in National Assembly by Imported Government

[Norwegian]

Don't justify tyranny.

Overseas Pakistanis are building block of our economy. If they stop remittances, Pakistan will default and go bankrupt.

He says it's okay to take remittances from western Pakistanis but not their votes

Tax collection more than doubled from 2018 to 2021 to 6000+ billion so IK was able to subsidize fuel! Also he was going to get 30% cheaper fuel from Russia. He wasn't borrowing more just to subsidize. People like you would claim that Sehat Card, affordable housing, mortgage schemes, etc everything was for political gains!

Tell that to IMF, they suspended their program. Here is another user explained very well:

I'll informed cult worshippers jumping up and down. IK started this faisco with petrol subsidy derailing the entire economy and IMF program.

This government only made it worse by not passing on price hikes to public. PTI propagandist are already blaming the 1 month government for inflation lol. When petrol touches 200rs lol it will be a celebratory day for PTI followers cause government couldn't control inflation. Petty politics is now unfortunately above the state benefit now.

Aik **** akar bolay ga PTI was financing petrol subsidy through extra tax. Lol

Patwari logic.

 

[Norwegian]

cause they have foreign passports while gcc ones do not?

So? What's the problem in that? They can only keep one passport by law but they are still Pakistani origins and should be able to vote like other Pakistani origins in GCC countries

See this Lota snatching the rights of Pakistanis,

The whole country right now is being run from London, planes full of imported government officials, journalist doing Umra on taxpayers money. Frequent trips to UK to ask for directions to run govt.. But overseas Pakistanis cant vote? The overseas Pakistanis send remittances which help lowering current account deficit, improving rupee value, they invest in Pakistan, bring their expertise to build institutions (Sania Nishtar, Moeed Yusuf, Raza Baqir). Kin jahilon ka hath mein mulk de diya

This cannot go for long.

Everything is kind of falling in places, before a revolution and a rebellion there is always chaos and mayhem, and when status quo is breaking or a failed system is falling, after the darkness cometh the light.

Without the trials and tribulations there won't be any change, the whole system is now upside down and close to being reduntant.

The hope and passion of the people for the real change is already a victory for the people, the awareness and energy was never there and all stopped being Apolitical and now they are political and not neutral.

Change comes initially to hearts and minds...this has happened en masse. Change in the system is just a matter of time.

Are western Pakistanis second class citizens?

You can vote in Uk! Why you want to vote in Pakistan?

 

[Norwegian]

Or you just take flight to Pakistan and vote for the next election to install PTI. Both can work

New law if passed will take away my voting rights only because I am allowed to have one passport that is Norwegian despite having being born and grown up in Pakistan

Tax collection can be proportional to inflation. The demand for fuel could have also risen (which could contribute to larger indirect tax). Has the tax to GDP ratio really doubled in 3 years? This will be a more accurate measure.

Give up passport if you really love Pakistan?

 

[Norwegian]

we send it to our families

So? Doesn't matter whether it is sent to families or to govt bonds. Foreign money coming to Pakistan doesn't get used inside the country anyway because of transactions being in Rupees. It's only used by state bank and govt to pay for imports and external debt repayments.

Give up passport if you really love Pakistan?

Give up your Mafroor leader in London if you really love Pakistan?

You are exaggerating the original news to fit your narrative. There is no talk of stripping dual nationality law.

Because many countries allow expats to vote. Why can't Pakistani expats do the same?

Direct tax collection has risen more and with it the number of tax filers.

The thing is people will be cajoled to pay tax when the govt. is not splurging the money on extravagance and useless projects.

ex PM IK actually did this.

17 percent revenue increase & 40 percent increase in returns filers - Federal Board Of Revenue Government Of Pakistan

 

[P@kistan]

Do we even have money for elections?
