You have raised valid points, I will attempt to address some:
Broaden tax base - Actually there needs to be a decrease in flat taxation, like sales tax. At the same time an increase in business, and corporates who are either sitting outside the tax net or paying pittance.
Local Manufacturing of Smart Phones - GoP needs to incentivize major manufacturers to set shop in Pak, and make good quality products at a reasonable price, as is being done in India and Bangladesh.
Our import policy needs more than a visit, our car manufacturing sector, which after years of protectionism should have been exporting, is producing over priced junks.
Electricity - The poor pay through their nose, will suffering load shedding, while the rich......? This hasn't changed, and needs a massive overhaul.
Just as an e.g. KESC is still owned indirectly by ZAA, due to GoP not having given the nod to Shanghai Electric to take over. At the same time, the hurdles KESC face from local & federal depts has forced it to put all future power plants on hold. At the same time the nuke plant that is coming up in Karachi will not share any power generation capacity with KESC, and will send it up north to Wapda.
Remittance - Our remittance base needs to be strengthened by increasing vocational and technical schools, but that is not happening.
Min of Overseas Pakistanis and Human Resource Development - What this ministry actually does under the new GoP, is no different then previous govt's. just ask any semi skilled laborer in GCC. There is no focus, or urgency on how to increase remittances except lip service.
Issues which are critical, and do not need a lot in depth analysis, and should have been addressed on a war footing, are as usual being dealt with in an "all is well" manner. There is no urgency. If they will actually be addressed at all, is the most worrying part.
Due to a corrupt judicial system this cannot be fixed.
SO I Agree with everything you wrote above however everything below I don’t.
Sir, actually having served in law enforcement, I can tell you that this is a myth. THE issue lies with OUR courts, they are either too corrupt, or too incompetent. I can assure you, if International Red Warrants are issued, or official explanations sought from Foreign jurisdictions, about public officials, with the exception of India, and a few African countries, most do comply with Foreign court orders.
Yes and no. First of all the money that is stuffed in suit cases and sent through hawala system outside the country in cash is simply untraceable. Dubai is the number one destination of cash transactions. How do I know ? Some in my family have done that.
You can pay in Pakistan and pick up money in Dubai. Heck the guy who sold our factory for nine caror got five in Pakistan and four in Dubai. How do we know because his partner told us under oath in front of DC . Dubai by far is the biggest money laundry destination after London. Iranians pass their money through Dubai and so does Iraqis .
We have complained to the Canadian government that people are bringing in millions from Pakistan claiming that they sold business or houses in Pakistan and for them to properly vet the source of this money . We have seen absolutely zero interest in investigating and making laws against illegal money coming in. They want this money in... it creates jobs when these people buy luxury homes and luxury cars etc .
People coming in as immigrants are allowed to bring anything they own inc Jewellery. Now this may shock you but any item that is not in the raw form can be brought in unlimited quantity. So they make Gold Jewellery and bring it here and sell it!!!! its that easy!
Red warrant? Haram corruption money paid in cash usually has no paper trail. I don’t care what Pakistani authorities do I care what our government is doing to stop money coming in.
You will one day realize that he is neither a good leader, nor a good business man. In Business 101, you are taught, the first thing you should know, is when to cut your losses and get out. I didn't even go to oxford, and I know this.
Not true .... he is a greatest leader we have available today .... once we have a better leader I will jump the ship and support the next better one . Until then he is the best we have and deserving of all our support.
I studied economics 303 and I can assure you this is a win win situation and no way in hell his decisions are wrong. We may not like them but they are necessary and will give us results in due time.
NS is enjoying his life in London, and AAZ is king of Sindh. The End.
correct.
Bhai Sahab, this is the problem with civilians. You bankrupt our motherland, then when we step in, everybody goes ape shit.
If it were upto me, all I need is just 7 days. Thats it, and then you would see how these corrupt ba$tards would pay. Inka baap bhi kabar main sya nikalkay paisay wapis karta.
As to the Iranians, we are slowly building capacity to put them in their place. Enough of thier back stabbbing.
They way they threw, poor afghanis into the river, is not an example enough for blinded folks, to realize what the regime thinks of us.
