And now we will have threads on Dr Shahid Masood, an ABCD and rumors :)

WHENEVER I begin to think that hitting the barricades against corruption by high and mighty politicians is a great idea, I think back to the example of Malik Qayyum. Remember him? In case you don’t, here’s a sketch. Qayyum was the judge of the lower courts who heard the case of Hudaibya...

Pakistan's export problem is multifaceted marred by a host of issues. An appreciating PKR only adds to those vows. https://defence.pk/pdf/threads/half-a-million-jobs-lost-as-textile-crisis-hits-pakistans-economy.450577/#post-8715768...

The power projects are productive infrastructure and to be honest, Pakistani Financial sector doesn't have sufficient funding available for financing the CPEC projects domestically. Pakistan and China do have bi-lateral currency swap (Dysfunctional to great extent) line in place. With trade and...

That's a geopolitical risk which can technically occur as well but given that Russia has been very keen on projecting her soft economic power due to resurgence in Foreign Exchange Reserves (thanks to Oil Exports) the is a strong case of interaction between political and economic risks. As oil...

:lol::lol::lol: That actually shows your understanding of thing you're trying to call economics. So here's the simple thing for you 1-The countries like Russia, Venezuela, Saudia, Iraq,Iran,Norwegian Krone etc's exports and fiscal account are behave as a function of International Oil Prices...

Well if you're not able to recover the fixed costs (because of large-sized buses on Main BRT), despite charging higher fair, there is a good chance that you end up making even more loss than the system which operates at lower fair but achieves higher passenger occupancy per bus. There's no...

That's what we call a feeder route. These 9 meters will be feeders to the main route. However, including the feeder commuting fair in BRT's fair rather than collecting it separately would keep the passengers using specifically feeder routes, away from it. CNG is much more economical than HSD in...

Of course each person has a specific limit of paying upto an amount. But not everyone riding a bus would be willing to pay the amount that you're willing to pay. That's why most of the BRT systems work on "Consumer Surplus Capturing" method. I.e. recover the fixed operational costs by luring as...

Most importantly it will be self-sustainable and no subsidy would be provided by provincial gov't at all like other BRT's in Pakistan And how do they exactly plan to achieve it without pricing the ticket at 50-60 Rs?

They were suicide bombers, three blasts and then they said that they "killed the attackers".

Really? Is that's why we have the Foreign Exchange regimes across the world? And perhaps thats why almost all of the middle east and Singapore have pegged their currencies to mimic the movements in USD? And perhaps that's why the Hong Kong maintains a hard peg to USD? And perhaps thats why...

Level doesn't mean undervaluation or overvaluation. If that is so then Japanese Yen and Korean Won are one of the most undervalued currencies and Kuweti Dinar would be one of the most overvalued currency. Cost of manufacturing requires investment in business technology and R&D for innovation...

The paper picked up the news from an Indian News Agency (ANI) Head Office: ANI Building, Plot No. 15, Sector-9, R K Puram, New Delhi - 110 022 https://www.aniin.com/contact.html

I can see that from your picture.... That's nothing new. Dumping problems on US,India,Israel has always been our national excuse. But long live the ideology of bombing and killing others in the name of religion!

That's exactly why stable PKR despite a widening CA deficit is undervalued. The exchange rate has always been used as a tool to achieve the export competitiveness and managing current and trade account. PKR should be somewhere 120-125 looking at the peers. Indian Rupee, Chinese Yuan, Bangladesh...

The problem isn't just production but horrible collection in interior-Sindh. The primary reason why they're building transmission lines for dispatching Thar's power output to Punjab and Karachi. No power producer would like to operate with low collection Dispatch companies since sluggish...

How can you be so sure of that? KPK's large diaspora in other parts of the country is primarily because of lack of opportunities in the province. KPK administration's interest in acquiring FATA owes a lot to the fact that if FATA merges in KPK, it would enhance the part of KPK in federal pool of...

Did they arrest the missing person with some authority? Army act gives them the authority to detain any person they see as risk to security.

What is NAP BTW? What magical wand does it carry which would solve all the problems. So let me ask you that if all the terrorists are sitting in south Punjab then why are Afghanis and FATA residents are linked to each suicide attack? The terrorists in South Punjab are the Good terrorists I.e...
