Over 40pc Pak textile units relocate to Bangladesh

How serious is the load shedding problem in PAK. I mean we also have load shedding here at least 3 times a day in my
area, each for 1 hr at least, and that's the case of one of the most affluent area of Dhaka. The situation in the rest of the
country is much worse. PAK must be going through hell, if they are worse than BD.

by that logic the whole europe/usa is going through hell and doing worse than china for over a decade now..
didnt they transfer their industries to china?

We employ female workforce. Thats where the difference is.

So does Pakistan but your laborers will work for much cheaper than the ones in Pakistan, hence it would more sense economically for industries to employ workers from bangladesh.

There is some differences btn Tirpur and Bangladesh. Tirpur industries are small industry with very limited financial capacity to manage pollution whereas in BD all are big industries who have their own ETP. But saying so there are crooks who is contaminating alll around the places.

No, we dont want to discharge contaminated water in river. Thats a big NO.

Discharing the dying waste in to the river is the easiest way to make them reach the sea and you do not have to discharge them at the being of the river you just need to do it at the mouth of the river where it reachs the sea.
The Basic nature of the sea has the ability to nutralize any thing that is acidic in nature and most industrial waste from textile indusctries are acidic in nature.

ZEP(Zero Effuluent Plants) or treatment plants are not effective as they themself leave behind a concentrated sludge which is not easy to dispose off.

Any way good luck with your textile boom

Main reason is electricity crisis and Gas crisis and nothing else.

Think 22 hours in a city like Lahore..

I do not wish to sound offensive..
but just as entrepreneurs from this side went to east Pakistan to manage tea plantations and Jute farms.
Their successors have returned again..to form a give and take Partnership with the Bengalis.
Working as one..

In the most unusual reunion of sorts.

 

[SamranAli]

its only because of power shortage. Once ppp is out and if better govt come these type of news articles will be automaticaly dimissed..

 

[BATMAN]

Well, there are power problems in Bangladesh as well.

In Pakistan, it is near impossible to have permission for a self power generation.

Women workers comprise an average of 20% of the workforce in the garment sector. Karachi has the highest proportion of female workers followed by Faisalabad while Lahore came out as the least ‘woman-friendly’ city.

Cant you have generator? 100% of the industry have their own generator. The mammoth ones do not even connect to the national grid. National grids are too unreliable even when you have electricity.

Never mind...

Many textile units from central India have also shifted bases to Bangladesh.. One of my own uncle shifted his garment factory to BD citing high labor cost, exemplary high taxes and the callus attitude of our babus in getting any thing done from the govts side.!! He was so frustrated and disappointed with the current system... Said he cant survive doing business in India, better to move to Bangladesh.. And his business is booming there.. He has opened an export oriented unit... Earning 4-5 times what he used to earn here..!! This news is absolutely true..!! Well done Bangladesh..!! Garment units shifting bases to B'desh - Times Of India

Well as long as the owner is Pakistani - The money would eventually come back to Pakistan but unemployment would obviously rise.We obviously can't compete with Bangladesh as they have quit cheap labor available compared to us.Next Government will take concrete steps to fix this ( Specially if PTI comes to power) But I am just waiting for the day when PPP packs it's bags and leave Islamabad.

kohinoor industries near Rawalpindi .. those producing tibet snow cream and tibet soap....
had their own heavy oil generator since many of us were even born and they had been uneffected by power shortage..

textile owners made the wrong decision to first switch to gas powerwd generators...causing gas shortage..
if they had opted for heavy oil generators..that wouldnt have been a burden on national grid......as consumers at home dont use heavy oil..they use gas and diesel..
those who invested in gas or diesel generators found themselves in trouble.

Even inverters require 8 - 10 hrs of charging so even you cant keep a inverter in lahore ...this is unacceptable. We here in tamil nadu have been going through hell with 9-10 hrs powercuts...only this week the powercut duration has dropped to 3-4 hrs which is manageable.
