Indians with all their NANO hype still came far below..we may not be a country which produces NANO...but our engineers fare off better.

Pakistan ZIndabad!

But when are you guys gonna translate these concept designs for commercial use like the Nano? That's the crunch point!

There's even a concept car that runs on water invented by an American! But what's the use? It remains as just a concept design that has yet to be commercialized even after 5 years!!

Produce something that gives even 25km a litre and then we'll talk!

Cheers!

Look Post #5.

Pakistan's problem is the world's most corrupt system, unfortunately Pakistan have no honest leadership othwise the land is gifted with everything.

 

[MM_Haider]

agreed with OrionHunter.. I believe our industrialist giants must come in front to do funding for such cocept cars.. otherwise when these engineers will graduate will go abroad..

Congratulations to Pakistan!

But making an absurd assumptions like 'Pakistani engineers are better than Indian engineers' is idiotic and that too based on one petty race.

an Indian has to be the first one to comment and start everything on a negative note and change every topic's positive vibe. When will you guys grow up?

This highlights one important issue, that in Pakistan we have innovation and talent, but no ventures to bring such products to market. I think, we will use this as a learning opportunity, and who knows when these concepts actually become reality.
