Dar announces 35-rupee hike in petrol price

[Salza]

One option I see is no petrol days in a week. Say 2 days in a week after every 3rd or 4th day. This will save some petrol for us. Most of the goods and public transport run on diesel especially the big trucks. Diesel can remain available 7 days a week but we really need to cut down petrol usage. Lesser the consumption, lesser the need of importing oil.

no public will protest even petrolmhit to 300 or 400

pakistanis are super hidden rich and they kept their money hidden

Those who can afford the new prices will go on using it. Those who cannot afford them will have to find alternatives, or learn to do without. That is as simple as it gets, on both the domestic, and international, levels.

Inflation never makes anyone rich. It just makes the number bigger for the same real values, that is all.

If I had the powers, I would ban selling fuel to private vehicles outright, except for cases like doctor. Everybody else should use public transport, bicycle or walk. Or even bring animal drawn vehicles in an emergency. All available foreign currency should be reserved for food, medicines, fuel for public transport and other essentials plus export generating inputs. This is the time to hunker down to prevent greater tragedy.

Now I have my relatives calling me for financial support. So I told the ones who supported PDM I'm going to leave you hungry and send some to the others.

Pakistanis might be okay with paying for global oil prices like everyone else but what they won’t be okay with paying for onions, pulses, flour double that of neighboring countries.

But even then, Pakistanis won’t complain. Not just yet.

Part of that is Pakistan's own making. Many or most of the imported foods likely come from India travelling from Bombay to Dubai and shipped back to Karachi. Some middleman in Dubai makes money just faxing his orders to Bombay and sending his invoices to Karachi. All that does is, it burns precious diesel fuel for shipping and double or triple the food prices for Pakistani consumers.
