I think the only way we're going to help is if the entire establishment is swept out of office and straight into jail or permanent exile. Strip them of their Pakistani citizenship, I'm sure there are plenty of countries that would let them buy citizenship somewhere else. We've already shown...

$200 million? With fuel prices where they're at in PK? Aramco could literally sell its fuel to a Pakistani subsidiary with limited margins and make hundreds of millions off the spread.

My understanding is that the real estate sector is worth around $400 billion. If so and if they were to tax it at a 2.5% millage rate, you'd be looking at a straightforward $10 billion a year in tax revenue. That would be 20% of the federal 23 budget. Seeing as Pakistanis love hard assets...

You want to fix the IPP problem? Send in regulators to conduct safety inspections, if they don't pass fine the plant as far back as possible. Make it as unprofitable as possible for them to keep that agreement. If they don't comply put the plant up for auction.

Really? Is he going to change all of his funds to dollar accounts in Pakistan and close his Swiss and Panamanian bank accounts?

The timing of this is certainly convenient. But don't just blame this on the government, even though most likely they caused it. Everyone who decided to participate is guilty,no matter how they rationalize it. Pakistan needs to repent and turn to Jesus now. All who allows these sins and...

I'm sure the US would do a much better job managing Karachi, but the truth is that without being able to mooch off Karachi the Bhutto/Zardari crime family wouldn't exist.

It wasn't just aid. Japan sat up and said, "How can we make money and fix our system?" I won't say that they got it perfectly right. They went into manufacturing and exploited that to grow their economy until the 80s. Their weakness is birth rates and an inability to figure out entrepreneurship...

There are actually viable Pakistani exports to Japan, if marketed properly. They need IT services and I've seen demand for good fruit as it's very expensive to grow fruit in Japan. The right mind could make a ton of money exporting to Japan.

It's a government contract so you can't reasonably expect they're going to pay retail rates, particularly for a hotel that hasn't been occupied in three years. I'm frankly amazed PIA still owns the hotel despite the economic disruptions and repeated attempts by Indian investors to try to grab it...

Imran did call elections in 2022. He had Arif Alvi dissolve the Parliament which would have resulted in elections within 90 days. He may have been declining in population leading up to that, but if we're to be honest he's been the biggest benefactor of PDM's terrible timing as the entire...

You don't want to give a man like that even the hint of the moral high ground. Best way to get rid of such a man is by stripping him of his wealth and influence.

Maxine waters? That irrelevant communist? For those of you throwing a tantrum she contacted him. He didn't go running to her.

There's a ton of evidence. 1. There were multiple eyewitnesses. The Romans sticking the spear in his side was evidence to prove that He died. The fact that blood and water came mixed out proved that Jesus was already dead. 2. The 12 disciples, including Paul who was not a disciple at the time...

They may live on it, but it's still important to share the message of eternal life. If he chooses to reject it, he will not be able to stand in front of God on judgment day and say that no one told him about Jesus.

Who corrupted the Bible? Can you show me who did it? Have you read and studied the whole Bible, to make such claims? I've watched some of Naik. He doesn't have much of a ground to stand on. He's following in the steps of unsuccessful polemists such as Deedat who God indeed struck dumb at...

I'm happy to take this to private message but you are immensely wrong. Jesus stated several times that He is God in the Gospels. The Islamic narrative literally misses the mark in several places.

Such arrogance is unbecoming. Pakistan is bankrupt, the corrupt and fools are in power, and you reject the help of those outside Islam because you believe us less than you? I'll be praying to Jesus for you my friend.

To be honest IMF hasn't failed Pakistan, but their methods of collections could use some work. I would have rather put the efforts on strong economic documentation, boosting exports, and getting a real picture of what the Pakistani economy is like. By immediately putting the priority on making...

It is beyond me how Pakistan can't recruit investors to engage in a public-private partnership to rebuild the transmission lines to modern standards and have theft control programs. The energy sector would be solvent if they just recovered that.
