Gwadar- turn it into a liberal city.

[qamar1990]

so i have was thinking that the government of pakistan should turn gawadar into a liberal city.
what do i mean by this?:

1.have a defined boundary for gawadar
2.have its own laws
- complete freedom of speech
- alcohol is legal
- gambling is legal
-complete freedom of religion
- have its own special police force
- completely independent of balochistan
3. pakistanis from rest of pakistan would have to get special permission to work and live there.
4. the whole citys prices of goods and wages should be completely different from pakistan
- pick any european country ( follow its wages and prices for goods)
- if a bottle of pepsi costs a dollar then in gawadar it should be 100 rupees
- if minimum wage is 8 dollars an hour then in gawadar we should make it 800 rupees an hr
- and so on.
basically gawadar will become the hong kong of of pakistan.

what do you guys think?

I agree with everything but gambling should not be legal. Coming to Alcohol, it should be only sold to non-Muslims and tourists from abroad who carry permits for purchasing.

I think we should make Gwadar a tourist attraction by planting a lot of palm trees and other exotic tropical plants along with construction of modern buildings with a Islamic Architectural design, it would go nice, kind of like a Oases.

But this is just my wishful thinking.

why is all this necessary?

We dont need another Macau or Las Vegas

And I think alcohol should only be allowed with permits...banning it would be stupid but regulating it would be wise because we dont want drunkards with the million and 1 accidents and crimes they cause...like we dont already have a million and one other problems to deal with!

Complete freedom of religion should be for the whole of Pakistan not just Gwadar!

Discriminating it by separating it from the rest of Pakistan by making Pakistanis getting permit is a little ridiculous do you have to show a permit to enter NYC from Texas?

 

[ranjeet]

Sin city in Pakistan !!!

Where does Allah say in Quran that drinking and gambling are punishable crimes ??

Do you really want to take it down that road?

This is what i would like Gwadar to look like:

There is no concept of "state" in Quran ... So the concept of "Islamic sate" is "unIslamic" basically...

Well, not to sound harsh or anything but we wouldn't want a brand new city to be flooded with loud rickshaws, motorcycles, donkeys and horse drawn carts, paan chewers spitting everywhere, etc lol you get what i mean. Neither should we allow the city to turn into some kinda territory for a specific political party as has been done to Karachi.

I want Gwadar to be kinda like the Islamabad of the south if you know what i mean.

1st did I say the Quran asked to punish?

The concept of country, land and territory can be interchangeably used as state country land territory...your point being?

As for where it says about punishing such people...well, hello such people are punishable by morals not the Quran!

esp when you are going to steal to get the money to bet

esp when you are going to rape when you are drunk

esp when you are going to be ram your car into a tree or a person when you are intoxicated!

Oh did I forget sell your daughter to pay back the bet?

I think its more on morals and common sense than on needing the Quran here!

Fair enough but it would be sad to cut it off...knowing how our people behave to being cut off or having something cut off from them

Maybe only allow passes as in people who work there and live there but not something like security shutting it down!

I mean even Chinese people were free to go into HK!

Good points!

Gambling is really unproductive TBQH. And i've seen people become addicted to that sh!t where they keep wasting money until they almost have nothing left.


If Pakistan were to ever have Casinos this is how i'd want them to be dealt with :

Coming to Alcohol, a sensible stance would be not to illegalize it but to control and restrict its distribution to non-Muslims and foreigners only.

Well, China is almost a whole different story compared to Pakistan. Gwadar is a brand new city and to allow it to be flooded and overcrowded will burden the infrastructure and will be harmful in the long run. A better thing would be to develop Gwadar and try to bring the rest of the country up to its standards and then slowly make it easily accessible to the common man.

Well it would be rather sad if Pakistanis themselves cant enjoy Pakistan
