It wasn't the maoism it was the capitalism that turned China around. If maoism is the distictive factor then who turned around India,Bangladesh,Vietnam and Indonesia?Hope so. 2,000 years ago Buddhism travelled from Pakistan along the same route north into China. So if Maoism travelled south that might a be a good thing. Look what it did to China?

If you watch the unlicensed cable in 200-300 you can afford to call TV fee being able to watch that on your TV.Actually there was a time when every house who had a tv needed to purchase a licence. People stopped doing that so the government instead put a Rs35 tax as PTV fees in the electricity bill which is absolute nonsense and BS. Why should the people bear the burden of a state owned mouth piece?
Btw you can get it removed by informing the collection office about not having a TV.
Q 8. I have been charged TV-License fee. How can I get the exemption from it?
Collection of TV license fee through electricity bills was introduced by Government of Pakisan through Finance Act 2005. Pursuant to this, KE is acting as a collecting agent of PTV for collection of TV License Fee since May 2008 through an Agreement dated May 24, 2008 between PTV and KE.
Under this agreement, there is a simple procedure already in place for elimination of TV License Fee through submission of a self-declaration form at KE Integrated Business Centers (IBCs) for the purpose of verification by PTV and the said form shall be collected by PTV designated representative from KE designated offices.

This is a normal practice in most of the countries
You need to be covered by a TV Licence to
- watch or record live TV programmes on any channel (including BBC)
- download or watch any BBC programmes on iPlayer – live, catch up or on demand.
It costs £145.50 for a colour and £49.00 for a black and white TV Licence. In some cases, you may be entitled to a reduced fee TV Licence (see table below).
