Bhai Musharraf gaya, samajhlo development gai. It was all due to Musharraf, alot lot of development work was in progress & new proposals were in place, his dream was to make Pakistan developed country & he was in pursuit of his dreams. Pakistan was predicted as developed country just like any European country till 2026 but than the people of Pakistan voted world biggest corruption figure who is now president of Pakistan, all funds for development, education, health etc all kind of aid/donations goes directly to the swiss bank accounts of zardari.

Here My Friend Have patience.Tallest Skyscraper In South Asia if Competed in before 2016.
(Future Aspects)
The tower would provide world class office space with residential, conference, performance, retail, restaurant, and support facilities.
President General Pervez Musharraf performed ground-breaking of Rs 20 billion(€ 280 million) Port Tower project in June, considered to be amongst 10-tallest buildings of the world.
"Our preparations are in full swing and it is hoped that the President will perform the ground-breaking of the tower in June," an official in the ministry of ports and shipping told Business Recorder.
He said it would be a landmark project in Karachi with world class recreational facilities and the 1,947 feet (593 m) high Port Tower with commercial-cum-recreational centre will rise at the skyline on the Clifton beach, he added.
The official said the main features of the venture would be a commercial complex, residential estate, recreational facilities and a viewing gallery offering a panoramic view of the coastline and the city.
The monument would be completed in a period of six years.
The complex would have speedy lifts for the visitors to have a bird's-eye view of the city from a revolving restaurant at its top.
The total 90-acre (360,000 m2) land required for the project would be made available through reclamation of the sea, the official said.
It is learnt that the Karachi Port Trust would contribute Rs 3.16 billion(€ 44.2 million) in the shape of 30-acre (120,000 m2) land for the tower and the Expo Centre, 30.5-acre (123,000 m2) land for low-rise residential complex, 21.5 acres (87,000 m2) for high-rise complex and 15.8 acres (64,000 m2) for shopping area and hotel.
The low-rise residential complex would comprise 75 units of 4,500 sq ft (420 m2) each, while the high-rise complex would have A and B categories of apartments.
The authorities believe the mega project would generate huge employment opportunities, as some 40,000 workers, along with 137 industries would remain associated with the project for six years

It was not a sand tower which could be created in one night. Nearly 9k posts under your belt & you don't know how does this all work. There is alot of work & planning need to be done before any big mega projects get started. Also new govt came shortly after, so this proposal maybe cancelled by zardari regime.

Nope.

Zardari happened and a lot of investors took out the money for this project and other projects.
