Must read thread 🧵: Especially to understand issues with the mega projects. 1. In Pakistan, the government often borrows extensively from domestic banks & international institutions to finance large-scale infrastructure projects like motorways.

GDP growth of 3.7% is nowhere to celebrate with 2.6% population growth! Unemployment increased, 7.1% claimed but seems like way more & exports decreased.... More Pakistanis left the country, also illegally, tired of the system & economy.

Stupidity or Elite Capture or Both! Tax: EV, Exempt: PHEV/HEV Hybrid cars including Tank, HAVAL, Jaeco are all used by Elite... PHEV users are not charging them even, using as petrol cars, with worse average. However, there is a need for EVs, to save petrol but interests.....

For higher education commission research initiatives: Rs10 billion
ابھی کچھ میڈیا ہاوسز کہتے ہیں وہ کنگال ہورہے ہیں اور ان کے پاس تنخواہوں کے پیسے نہیں اور ورکرز کو نوکریوں سے نکالا جارہا ہے۔ وزیر اطلاعات عطا اللہ تارڑ صاحب نے آج قومی اسمبلی میں تحریری طور پر انکشاف کیا ہے کہ پاکستانی اخبارات، ٹی وی چینلز اور ڈیجیٹل میڈیا کو صرف تین سالوں میں تقریبا 15 ارب روپے اشتہارات کی شکل میں دیے گئے ہیں۔ یہ پندرہ ارب صرف شہباز شریف صاحب کی وفاقی حکومت نے دیے ہیں۔ چاروں صوبائی حکومتوں نے الگ اربوں روپے دیے ہیں جن کا ڈیٹا میسر نہیں ہے۔ اکثر میڈیا ہاوسز کے تینوں پرنٹ، ٹی وی چینلز اور ڈیجیٹل فورم ہیں۔۔ یوں ایک ایک میڈیا ہاوس کو تینوں فورمز پر اشتہارات مل رہے ہیں۔ ہر سال پانچ ارب روپیہ دیا جارہا ہے۔ @TararAttaullah @CMShehbaz

$1900 per Capita! This translates to Rs 44,500/Month If your job is paying you below this, you really need to change the job.

A company with total revenue of $20 Billion and making a loss of $5 Billion definitely doesn''t worth $1.75 trillion. It's the biggest hype based marketing gemic to make the world richest person more rich! Also, Index funds rules are changed so retail investors will get in it..
The biggest stockmarket debut in history will take place on Friday, when SpaceX, Elon Musk’s rocketry firm, lists on the Nasdaq exchange. The company reportedly hopes to raise $75bn, which would give it a value of $1.8trn. #Economist

Home remittances at record high $4.25 bn in May 33% growth from UAE - reaching $1 bn - people are sending back money from UAE in the form of NPC (in PKR) and otherwise. The question is will it sustain.

EV charging stations are becoming crowded. In Lahore, you have to wait in queue for your turn. There is a serious need for this infrastructure....

Loved the article, however 2000 EV charging stations now is not true!!!
I have exclusive photos of the greatest bet a Pakistani has taken on Pakistan this century. A massive $200 Million investment initially. A total of $1 BILLION allocated to this and related value chain investments. BYD by my namesake Habibullah Khan. This plant is 73 acres. It will produce 25,000 units initially and expand to 50,000 units seamlessly in Phase 2. Why is this being done. Because his competition was so satisfied with their monopoly and the billions of rupees they raked in while giving Pakistanis older, unsafe cars with minimal features, they didn’t think of Pakistan. Habibullah Khan did. He estimates that with a 30% EV penetration Pakistan will not only save almost $3 billion dollars a year on fuel, and it will also reduce GHG emissions by over 1 million tons MTCO2e helping Pakistan meet its SDG commitments to the Paris agreement. EV value chain investments by him and others will have an immediate impact of a further $3.75 billion dollars to the GDP. If you’re gonna dream. Dream big. This plant is an example of how Pakistan’s future can look. Good incentives by government result in unlocking local and international capital. Investment brings in LATEST ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY with knowledge transfer (Suzuki is still selling cars with hand rolled windows 😭). Plant is geared for export as well allowing you to earn dollars as you indigenise value chains in mining, batteries, auto…. The oil guzzling local companies know they are beat. There were 100 EV charging stations a year ago. Today there are over 2000. The EV Revolution is irreversible. So they’re trying the only route they know how. Using powerful advisors and ministers to put pressure on government to double the duty on EV CBU’s so as to kill this massive dream in the womb. Not just Pakistan’s mystery billionaire, Habibullah Khan is Pakistan First.

Replying to @inspirdanalyst
I am an Inspector with four years of service, but my salary is still less than 100k. On the other hand, there are inspectors, such as FIA inspectors, who earn more than Rs. 200k in addition to other perks and privileges. There is huge wage differences among different departments.

Minimum wage setting is a scam!
Congrats! new min wage in Pakistan is a massive 165 USD! Cherry on top? no one will follow! Labor works at 800-1000/day, teaching jobs START at 35-40k, internships still unpaid! BONUS: You pay more than US for fuel, while having one of the worst Tax-to-GDP ratios in the world!

Fines should be 0.1% of car price! For the same violation: It would be Rs10,000 for Jaeco J7, 1Cr vehicle vs Rs500 for 5 lac rickshaw. Impact both and change their future habits...
issuing a Rs 2000 fine to a rickshaw driver for a lane violation is equivalent to depriving his family of two days meal. To say that the law is equal for everyone and that all should comply is an insensitive argument. For a person driving 4×4 this amount is like peanuts.

Then why doesn't this standard apply when someone talks about Professors at the University? Govt. claims low salaries of Professors at the University is okay as quality stays the same!!!
I am one of the biggest critics of government policies, but some people are objecting to the post below. My point is that everything should be judged through fair comparison and with perspective. Below is an article posted a few years back by @ProPakistaniPK. You can see the salaries of CEOs/presidents of other private banks at that time, and you can easily imagine what they must be earning now. Without offering a competitive salary, how can you expect better performance or attract a competent professional in the same industry, especially when other banks are offering many times higher salaries for the same position? propakistani.pk/2022/05/01/t…

It would be the only good thing by this unpopular government & establishment. However, highly doubt they would be doing it seriously. Only amendments for one's own extension, making government & changing power were necessary ones & passed quickly.

Islamophobic attack killed 3 in San Diego, USA mosque! Attackers were brainwashed haters of the Muslims... Uncontrolled hate against Muslims by the extreme right wing is the main reason for this kind of brainwashing.
