Why can't Pakistan understand one simple fact of life !!! That there is nothing called a free lunch. You pay for every action whether its borrowing or subsidising or even recieving grants. And so long as you don't learn that lesson your economy will never do well...

First it's Shabbar Zaidi. Second it's not about "Pakistanis" digesting. It's about the Army and the corrupt government officials. Just because they have made wrong decisions that doesn't mean that's the analysis for the entire population. Just as Modi's views are not the views of the entire population of India. Third Shabbar Zaidi is a mix bag of right and wrong ideas, unfortunately there are fools here who are going to stay in this country but are going to wag their tongue for other nations just for a few dollars!

[@dourbeen]

Shabbar zaidi is incredibly pro india and anti china to the point that he is against cpec but pro gulf Pakistan india pipeline.He uses concern of security with regards to chinese investment but forgets same would be an issue in the pipeline thing.. In 2018 he jumped up the property tax transaction from nothing to 20%.. a sane mind would gradually increment it but his actions sabotaged the whole idea regardless how sincere he was.. Similarly the smuggling thing needs time and cant go away overnight.his action were radical and even imran couldnt back him. I dont know what was he thinking when he thought smugglers would just start enrolling themselves in tax net. Smugglers only understand language of gun(operation azm e istehkam is against them), he should have kept bajwa in loop. Not just IR his sense of history is also skewed.Since he is from india he thinks rest of Pakistanis would think along his lines.. Pakistan aur india ka khana /gana aik nahin hai shabbar bro...both are diverse countries with different cultures. Regardless of all he gives an exceptional account of Pakistans economy he has identified several real issues.. and I will always give him credit for the track and trace thing approved under him..

In coming 5 yrs India will be laying undersea oil and gas pipelines connecting KSA and Iran to meet its needs as they will be more safer and reliable compared to oil and gas pipelines coming over land from Pakistan. Moreover, it is perceived that Pakistan could play mischief by blocking pipeline supplies in the event of hostilities. It will be in the best interest for Pakistan to vacate occupied territories of India and normalize relations for long term peace and prosperity.

Ego, yes the ego is the biggest hindrance... The way Pakistan is being run economically shows that the country has no future. Economy does well while the focus is on wealth creation. But here the whole lots of energies are being spent on how to borrow money, and how to tax people to make arrangements for repayments. This is insane..... Neither they're focusing on exports to meet current account deficit nor on industry to increase wealth creation. And without these two, Pakistan can't survive, let alone economic development.

With all due respect sir, for you to revamp your economy you’ll need first and foremost strategic autonomy. Your remote control is with China and US, they prescribe to you what you need to do, otherwise they’re calling in the debt. In pursuit of ghazwa hind you guys have sold your soul to the US and China and now, they’re the ones calling the shots. You have your army to thank for this, which dug a hole so deep that you can never get out of. India is trying to have an independent foreign policy so we can choose who we can partner with and who to pause ties with, and we’ve been paying a heavy price for this. But since we haven’t taken loans from the imf etc left and right , we have made some progress here. With almost next to nothing to exports and pretty worthless currency, you have no chance of being independent. You know what to do to fix things, independence stop being a security state etc etc, but these things aren’t realistic. The foundation itself is wrong so all you can do it patch jobs.

Anyone having 1000cc plus plus car must pay 1 lakh per month as surcharge. 1500cc 2 lakh per month as surcharge. 2000cc 5 lakh per month surcharge. 3000cc 15 lakh per month surcharge. House owners having greater than 1000 sq ft must pay 1 lakh per month as surcharge. 1500sq ft 2 lakh per month as surcharge. 2000ft 5 lakh per month surcharge. 3000ft 15 lakh per month surcharge. Flat 50% surcharge on land transaction above 1000 sq ft. This is how you tax the rich Also anyone having more than 5 hectare Agriculture must pay 1 lakh per month as surcharge. 10 hectare 2 lakh per month as surcharge. 15 hectare 5 lakh per month surcharge. 20 hectare 15 lakh per month surcharge. if they are not paying, govt should confiscate excess hectare. it looks like communism but this the current solution right now Also reduce concessions to army. reduce salary of army staff by 25%.
