No foreign direct investment in KP since PTI took over

[Menace2Society]

PTI is pathetic. No business sense. Equals to PPP. If you can't drive in investment then f**k off.

Sir please tell me how will an investor invest in a place that was a hotbed for terrorists until 3 years ago?

Also the FDI for the entire nation is decreasing. Last report said it decreased 45% year-on-year. That is also PTI's fault?


Hard to expect sanity and logic from people who support Nawaz and his darbaris.

 

[somebozo]

So anti nawaz means anti everything?

Its better vs worst...opposing nawaz has to be done by showing better management skills than nawaz...Imran Khan has no sense of financial management..he treats the budget as a big chanda to be spent on schools hospital and blah blah...with no productive income..

A chanda jama krna wala cannot be expected to have productive financial sense...

FDI is decreasing year on year relatively because many hot sectors have already been financed..it mean the opportunities to invest are decreasing..FDI is relational to available opportunities...no opportunities..no FDI..

Secondly PTI is sympathetic to terrorist so hot bed of terrorism and remains the same..!

PR, PSM, PIA among other state-run institutions are loosing billions of dollars every year, and decreasing export and FDI in country is good management? What good management are you talking? Where are police reforms, environmental reforms, educational reforms, tax reforms etc etc. To say FDI is decreasing because no opportunities is nothing but dumb. Pakistan is not a developed nation, far from it and there are plenty opportunities. Its is up to the government to look for new growth sectors and provide reforms and incentives so that these sectors can grow. Current government has done shit in that regard rather they have overtaxed the current industry making exports fall even more.
Building schools when well over 30 % of population is illiterate is bad? Building hospitals to provide medical treatment is bad? A healthy and educated society is a productive society.

instead industrial units in KP are shutting down.

My friend U need to look forward,not back. Many sick industrial units had already been revived and many more are being revived.

I heard about it. It also happened in 2014 where the investors defected from KPK after dealing with reality check later. Given Imran Khan policy during dharna year that took Pakistan's economy under hostage, forcibly close down local businesses against their wills and cost Pakistan economy more than 500 billion rupees and more.

That is the risk no investor would invest under the leadership after what the leader did.

This has got to be the biggest bullcrap i have ever read.

As per your logic, building schools and hospitals are unproductive. So educated and healthy people will ruin the productivity of this nation.......sounds like a typical baboon nonsense.

Edhi sahib was also a chanda jama krna wala and he built Pakistan largest charity organization. Also not everyone has to be a financial expert, you have a team and each team members have their own expertise. A good leader uses the capabilities of each member to successfully achieve the desired outcome as a untied team.

As per your logic of decreasing FDI, then all hot sectors in Pakistan should be performing at historical high as they have been fully financed. Also going by your logic no one should ever invest in countries like China, US or Europe because every sector has been financed many folds compared to the total FDI that has ever entered Pakistan.

Finally you claim that PTI is sympathetic to terrorists.............sounds like you have a few loose screws in your head to be claiming such a thing. Do you have any proof for your claim?

In the beginning there were no schools no hospitals and humans were cave men..economic prosperity creates sense for higher quality of life..generating employment is the first priority..when people have work and money..they will automatically be motivated to avail higher facilities and quality of life..point in case is kids being pulled out of school to work and earn a living for household..poverty is the biggest disease on mankind..!

I may have a dislike for PMLN but I appreciate they policy of putting nation to work first...power plants, roads, railways, ports, steel are basic economic infrastructure...without these there can be no prosperity and without prosperity there will be no higher quality of life and the tax base to sustain schools and hospitals...corruption will be rampant..

My rebuttal to your post above is a simple one. Even the prophet said go and educate yourself even if you have to go to china for it. He didn't say go and build roads or start business.

Education provides skills that are required for any organization to operate and medical facilities make sure that the human capital is healthy so they keep working . No country has ever achieved economic prosperity without a proper education and health sector.

Bingo. You can check my post history where I was asking people in this forum to help me bridge a relationship into the PTI Government in order to facilitate a consortium of investors from Jiangsu. But Pakistani's are inherently arrogant and the door was slammed in my face. Why should I as a British Pakistani waste my time helping a bunch of ungrateful people.

mate what makes you think that people on PDF are experts in doing business in Pakistan let alone KPK, i appretiate that you motivated yourself to invest in KPK but you gotta understand its not UK. This country has been run by thugs from the last few decades every institution here is fkd up.

is he not?
last time i checked KPK government was awarded bonus by federal government for better financial management.
https://defence.pk/threads/kp-gets-rs1-5-bn-bonus-for-best-financial-management.317690/
the same PTI government has shown better performance in Education, Health and Police department but if management skill means how to spend money on underpasses, metros and roads yeah i have to agree to you he has zero management skills when it comes down to those.
And my God i am baffled by this statement of yours "A chanda jama krna wala cannot be expected to have productive financial sense..." this guy built two state of the art hospitals and SKCH could now be called as the most professionaly managed hospital in this country. And here you are mocking him coz he built it with CHANDA???

KPK province cannot obviously be categorized in the same class as the UK, however, under no circumstances should it be exempt from criticism. In my opinion they have failed spectacularly on the economic front and haven't improvised. Pakistan is a nuclear powered state and it doesn't even have a bloody sovereign fund or even a energy fund that could attract investment. Why should countries risk their capital when the host country themselves are reluctant to put any seed capital.

In the last three years PTI has failed to achieve any FDI in the province...why is this the case? I will concede to the point that many big projects are on hold due to the Federal Government's dirty tricks in delaying them with funds. However, investment under $50 million comes under the jurisdiction of the provincial government. Therefore, why hasn't PTI attracted investment on smaller projects? Please don't respond back and say the security situation has made this difficult. Like I said previously a consortium of investors from Jiangsu province were interested to invest in KPK when the threat level was close to its peak. PTI were so incompetent that the investment cell website wasn't updated at all in the first two years. Seriously if you don't advertise your projects properly then how do you expect to bring confidence in investors.

If those dickheads from the investment cell had did there work, then I would have had the opportunity to link a sister city deal between Peshawar and Kunming. Trade would have increased between these cities and local businessmen could have invested. Chinese culture revolves around Guanxi and if you break this trust then it's impossible to regain it back. Anyway its happened now and the only reason why I have mentioned this is because people need to accept the reality that PTI have failed in KPK. I can criticize Ganja Sharif and Zardari all day and the lists is long....trust me Imran Khan is a million times better than them. But I never had high hopes for those corrupt cockroaches in which I had for Imran Khan.

Ask IK who interview few days back that Pakistan FDI is decline and if he is in power more investment will come. Ask KPK Govt to contact him and it is he who say that previous Govt didn't did much in past and we will change it and after 3 1/2 years they still blaming them. What majors KPK Govt take improve this trend?

I understand your frustration, try once more may be? See if there has been any change of attitude in 3 years?

Investment above $50 million dollars in the energy sector needs the requirement of the Federal Government to give the go ahead on hydropower projects. PTI in KPK has dozens of projects on hold due to Noon League playing this pathetic dirty trick. On the day of judgement Ganja Sharif will have to answer to Allah for the suffering of the common man. His thirsts for power is more greater than his desire to see a prosperous Pakistan. Pakistan's biggest problem is it's bureaucracy and how you have to bribe every dickhead in Government to see a project through. They have no vision and don't know how to move the country forward.

How did the Chinese bring in FDI from the Japanese at the early stage of the open door policy when they were at odds with each other? The answer was the signing of sister-city agreements between the two nations where local investors with the support of the local Government invested in joint partnership projects. Dalian is a greater example where the second language spoken is Japanese. Peshawar has a sister relationship agreement with Urumqi, however, apart from the Xinjiang Production and Construction Corp their aren't many companies who are big enough to invest in big projects to my knowledge. Still the incompetent fools in PTI should increase trade between the cities and hold regular meetings to foster more cooperation.

The chances of me bringing a successful project to an investor from a State Owned Enterprise or the Private sector is virtually zilch unless they come directly from China's central government through the Ministry of Development and Reform. Once Ganja Sharif leaves office and the bureaucracy is changed where red tape is reduced then I will definitely try my hardest to convince Chinese businessman to relocate their factories to Pakistan. Every single Pakistani should strive to do this for the betterment of our country so that the future generation doesn't curse us for being incompetent.

Pakistan has so many different opportunities and has the potential to become a Asian Tiger. For example did you know that in Pakistan we export $200 million worth of gems. What a pathetic figure, when Pakistan has the fourth largest precious stone deposits in the world and the industry is worth billions of dollars. Just across the border in the city of Surat the local Government is educating their workforce in how to extract, cut, facet gems to an international standard where they hope to create 50,000 jobs in the next two years. What the hell has PTI done in KPK in regards to this industry..nothing. Oh, yeah they are auctioning some mines, but have no clue that our mining techniques are primitive. The labour in Pakistan is cheap and we can overtake both Surat and Bangkok as the gems capital of Asia.
