Pakistan doesn't handover any money to Government of Kabul, in this case $1 Billion. Every year Pakistani government starts projects, such as Hospitals, Universities, roads & bridges in Afghanistan.

And this includes 35-40 high profile projects and many grants/gifts (such as coaster buses, investing in human capital/training etc)

Pakistan and Afghanistan should get on. Pakistan has done a lot to help Afghanistan but Afghanistan Gov is idolising India. Pakistan isn't asking for Afghanistan to stop its relations with India, but rather not cause Pakistan damage and remain neutral the very least. It is better for long term peace and brotherhood in Faith.

Instead of sending 500M across the border Pakistan should oblige the status of Afghan refugees in Pakistan with their enrollment in Universities and spend the money in house on grants to increase absorption of Afghan students....this will bring three benefits.

1. Money preserved inside Pakistan and facilities built or upgraded inside Pakistan
2. Long term social impact on Afghans by attaining education in Pakistan
3. Projection of soft power via graduates of Pakistani universities..
4. Softening down of anti-Pakistan sentiments in Afghan politics..

On face of it these all suggestions are no doubt very good but somehow this does not do well when these students go back as they get absorbed in the society. Here are the number of scholarships awarded to Afghan students in 2015 and 2016.

On the contrary India has awarded only 1000 scholarships to Afghan students last year. But U see the difference.

Its all about how much money U shuff in the mouths of top echelon and warlords there. The moment U stop funding them then U are their worst enemy as was case with Karzai who started blaming USA for many things but only in his last days in office.

And who is funding Pakistan for that? US, Saudi or China?

Pakistan is funding the projects on its own. Google is your friend

& in return, they train TTP scumbags against us.

Elements of their government does, as they are in cohorts with the eastern unruly neighbor. We'll sort them out one by one
