Indeed we heard the term 'high speed train' from Zardari's recent South Korea visit. But its getting more complicated to understand in what it would be used for. :shout:

We can have a High speed Rail between Islamabad and Lahore. It will require new tracks and electrified rails since these tracks are very old, business comunity and families which usually go by planes will benefit.

Its the most expensive project to undertake. What about first uplifting PR ? Are you sure that he signed for HSR or simple trains ?

Kindly provide proof.

While the Dawoo Yellow cabs were imported wholesale (along with rumors of corruption in the imports), the High Speed Bullet trains project was shelved by the PPP government that followed.

Modernization of Railways: Pakistan, under the agreement will seek:

I am very happy seeing all the development happening in punjab specially lahore. Not only that, I personally know two people that are investing a lot of money in punjab thatll create 5,000 jobs in the starting and 4,000 more within 2 years.

Also, once again I am going to say this, these projects started by punjab govt have created thousands of jobs. Labours from all over pakistan are working on these projects 24/7 without a single break. Than we have hardware and materials being manufactured all over pakistan that is supporting our economy, than these projects have also brought a massive boom in our engineering sector and created thousands of jobs specially for young graduates who have recently graduated from engineering colleges and universities. BRAVO!

We look at a flyover and we dont think about all these things, we dont think about how many people got their "Rozi" from building this flyover.
