Great podcast: pace, simple language, no fudging, fewer buzz words, lucid and sane guest. Looking forward to more of this quality. Going forward, include numbers and arithmetical breakdown of costs interst, debt etc on whiteboard

Attracting local investments in upgradation of local grid through issuance of sukuk like we did for the IPPs shows that foreign investment is not necessary.secondly privatizing all distribution companies ASAP on basis of performance based mangement contracts.Thirdly converting all plants gradually on local fuel like Thar coal and renewables will solve 80% of our problems.
