Massive flour smuggling to Afghanistan

[HAIDER]

Imagine this is only one point, where this smuggling going on. There are hundreds of points along Pak-Afghan border, which are un-escorted ..

Tough issue. No doubt food is smuggled out of Pakistan into Afghanistan contributing to food inflation....but these kids are poor and don't have much choices. Afghans need to stop growing opium and start growing more food.

We need to make this formalize arrangement. Pakistan wheat planning should include needs of afghanistan as well this will not only reduce smuggling but will help to earn export proceeds as well...

We need to play smart ... A formal arrangement to sell wheat to afghanistan and establishing a common authority to determine need of afghanistan and plan accordingly can be really helpful both tactically and startegically not only in food security but getting leverage on afghanistan

 

[El Sidd]

This is not a major concern.

Afghans suffer from inhumane conditions and must be given rights of neighbour in our surplus food factory free of charge.

Humanitarian grounds aside, shouldn't fencing Afghan border address smuggling. I remember this was one of the reasons besides restricting movement of terrorists
