by the time they are exposed, we might turn into skeletons !
@Jazzbot yeah she is right..... mubashir luqman will soon be doing a whole episode on this issue in khara sach.... they might be fabricating to make people believe its difficult or near to impossible to resolve but then they will overcome it giving people the signals look we did wat was a damn hectic task.... dont rule out arabs ....may be we see oil supplies to their frnd nawaz
iran Pakistan gas pipeline is also in swing ...... US was against it so was saudi but PPP govt has histrionically been good with iran also it was the ending time for their tenure so to give nation something to cheer about and gain votes they did so .....nawaz may change it in the favor of his allies .....this can be done by either direct cancellation or deliberate delays ......
What they did was, they didn't add any Magawatts to power grid in Punjab placing complete blames on Central Govt for creating all electricity mess and cashed it in elections.
The other thing they did, which Mubashir Lucman is going to expose was, they paid IPP's in Punjab to stop producing electricity at full capacity so the situation gets worse, people will become more angry at PPP and thus will eventually vote for N-League.
On the ground, the electricity crisis does exist, we didn't build any major dam in past 2 decades, didn't start any alternative power generation project (coal or nuclear etc) so there is major shortfall today. What they can do is force the IPP's to start producing electricity which was not deliberately working at their full potential. It will decrease the shortfall but it won't resolve electricity crisis, we'll see just a couple of hours difference in load shedding which is not sufficient.
Our main problem is the energy source for power generation, i.e. furn-is oil, the most expansive way of producing electricity in the world. On top of it, the oil we use for this purpose is imported oil which we buy in $$$ from other countries. PSO recently stopped oil supply to IPP's because they didn't pay PSO for Oil for several months and PSO is about to become bankrupt.. Even if NS is able to get Oil from KSA on soft loans or free of cost, it won't resolve the issue. It will be a temporary solution.
Unless we move to power generation using coal, or civil nuclear energy, this mess is not going to resolve. Money is problem for Coal projects and above all political will is required. And I am not sure NS will be able to beg and convince USA for civil nuclear energy tech.. So hard to believe they'll resolve this issue in 5 years, unless they do something drastic..
Just my 2 cents, lets see.. I'm a newbie in these stuff, I'm just replying on my general knowledge so pardon me if I've written something wrong here. May be someone with better understanding can shed some light on it..
@Leader @Aeronaut @nuclearpak @Awesome
Consider them politically dead if they won't fix electricity issue in 5 years..
I...........
We are in a huge mess. Had Kalabagh been made, we wouldn't be seeing 18 hour loadshedding in Lahore. Musharraf should have done that, and had he done it, I would have praised him. He could have used his dictatorial powers. Now Sindh and PPP will create hurdles.
any comment @Tiger Awan?
Understatement of the year: "We are in a huge mess." Oh yeah!
