Post-Revolution-Iran or PRI has never been an ally and will always be an enemy of Pakistan. This will not change no matter how much "brotherhood" Pakistan feels it has with its neighbor or even if it literally hands over Balochistan. Accepting their demands or engaging in CBMs is pointless...

Things are changing. There is a nascent startup culture forming in Pakistan. If universities or training courses can impart better skills used in today's industry, it could be synergistic. I think OSP can help out to by sharing industrial expertise or even be angel investors. PTI had a good...

Exactly, the only thing people here know how to do well is run or not do anything at all. Other countries with similar problems managed to solve their issues. India & Bangladesh have similar cultural problems, corruption, nepotism, poor governance, lack of opportunities, etc. Yet these...

So it seems the way to change to presidential form of governance is to use 2/3 parliament majority to scrap the constitution itself? If not, then this is problematic as a judge can override the mandate of the entire population. I feel the easier way to do this is to not explicitly change to...

Regarding this topic, what do you think would happen if Imran Khan held a public referendum to change Pakistan into a presidential government? I've heard someone say it could be struck down because it's unconstitutional? If so, what are the procedures, if any, to abrogate and nullify the...

If the Chinese can build a base in Djibouti or even Antarctica, I'm sure they would have built it in Pakistan by now if given permission. Which probably is the case, they never got permission. I suspect establishment seems to be firmly within the US camp. Bajwa called into question China not...

Most useless pact. Not a single country in the pact would bother defending the other. China won't even help Russia if it really cane down to it. Why should they? Russia still occupies Chinese land. Who the hell is Kyrgyzstan going to defend lol?

Gwadar was nothing more than another real estate scam. Too many people in the country are lazy and like to earn money without working. Sometimes that is done through asking bribes or commissions, stealing, and at other times, speculative real estate market. How do you hold land and drive up...

Isn't Kasur the same city famous for child molestation? I'm sure they would want PMLN back in power.

Just shows you how much of the judiciary is controlled by PMLN or at least biased in their favor. When PTI was in power, these judges had no problem operating at midnight, weekends, and every law passed by PTI sounded like a violation of the constitution. They would call Imran to court...

Lol, for what? They were hyped up to be the second most powerful military, near peer to the US. Now they are the biggest joke on the planet. Their military has no chance of victory in Ukraine after failed assault on Bakhmut. When they can't beat a lightly armed Ukraine, how the hell are they...

Ironically, this may help PTI and Pakistan in the long run. Judicial activism in Pakistan was destructive, even managing private enterprise like hospitals, blocking privatization of PSM, etc. The judiciary was untouchable, you couldn't even question judgements without being slapped with contempt...

The issue here is that plan has already been tried before. The results were a bit mixed. OSP did not bring investment to Pakistan, at least not as much as hoped. We did see some promise in remittances growth and the Pakistan bonds. But it's not like gold was falling out of the sky. Expatriates...

If only the establishment spent this much time focusing on dividing & fighting India, it might have had some success. The only war they seem capable of winning is against their own people, the bloody civilians.

The event is an attempt at Imran Khan's life. That would be incredibly stupid, short-sighted. KPK will be set on fire and the army will be dealing with something a hundred times worse than TTP. Total anarchy, complete chaos. Chain of command has failed and patriots in the army should no longer...

Be a stakeholder in the world's largest toilet? Pakistan's issues, like all economic ones, will eventually be resolved. But it's better to live in Pakistan under freedom than fear under Hindu crackpots. We've seen how Muslims have to suck up to Hindus, go through extra efforts to show...

When the people running the establishment are FA matric pass, including DG-ISI, what do you expect? They are not the brightest people in the room. Their mentality for the last forty years has been to smash components with a hammer and all else will be fine. Tell me, do you think a matric pass...

This makes sense. I see remittances increasing to previous levels due to change and crackdown on illegal channels. However, Imran's trust in OSP is misplaced. Overseas Indians did not immediately invest back into their country until the environment had changed significantly and there was already...

As predicted, the IMF and Saudi will have a bigger impact on the establishment than PTI. This is definitely going to make the nights for COAS more difficult. The establishment has no other way out, Imran must be brought back into power. It's clear to the Saudis (and others) that PDM does not...

Impressive showing. If only these jalsas happened outside GHQ & Corp Commander houses throughout the country. Then the establishment could be cut down to size.
