Please read the link, that is not what the bill is for. The bill is for strictly punishing people who make false blasphemy accusations (a common occurrence in Pakistan, likely the case for most if not all the blasphemy accused convicts), and the PTI is trying to withdraw it due to it's bending to extremists.

Journos Grill Asad Over IMF Deal

Finance minister trashes talk of discord with PM
Dawn
Oct 14, 2018
KARACHI: Minister of Finance Asad Umar on Saturday strongly denied all reports about a possible rift between him and Prime Minister Imran Khan.
Speaking to Dawn upon his return from Bali — where he submitted a formal request for balance of payments support from the International Monetary Fund (IMF) — the finance minister said, “I heard these reports on the way back from Bali.” He added that these reports were false and those outlets that have run this report, as per his information, will be deleting the content from their website. PEMRA taking action :roll:
The next IMF mission will visit Pakistan on Nov 7 and consultations will continue for another 10 days, the minister said. When asked about the size of the facility Pakistan will be asking for, he said that decision has not yet been made.
Some media reports have speculated that it could be as high as $ 15 Billion !
When asked whether he has met with the prime minister since his return from Bali, he said no, adding that he is scheduled to meet on Sunday morning, but there has been ample contact via messaging services. “We interact ten times a day” he said, “and the contact is constant”.
Immy and Asad both Tech Savvy :roll:
“He knew Pakistan was going to land up with the IMF all along,” he said. “He knew the writing was on the wall, and most likely we will land up with the IMF.”
Public memory is short ! Until just a few weeks ago, they discounted going to IMF . They wanted Cheen, Saudia to help . Plus they were "depending" on the recovery of the mythical $ 200 Billion "Stolen Wealth" being recovered :mrgreen:
He said the clips being shown on TV where Mr Khan was heard saying that the country should not go to the IMF are at least four years old. “There was only one day where Imran Khan said during a rally that we will not go to the IMF and I messaged him right away after that speech,” he said. Imran Khan was sure all along that Pakistan will go to the IMF during the campaign, the finance minister said.
Quite a comedown !
He said the government communicated nothing more than an in-principle decision to approach the IMF for balance of support in Bali. “I had three meetings with the IMF,” he said. “The first one was with Jaffar Mojarrad. ummah supporters ! The second was with Jihad Azhour and then finally with Christine Lagarde and David Lipton. So there were multiple meetings. The Lagarde meeting lasted about half an hour,” he told Dawn, adding that the other two meetings were the same duration.
He emphasised that whatever agreement Pakistan eventually has with the IMF must be built around structural reforms. When asked what exactly the structural reforms might consist of, he said privatisation was not on the menu and “there has been no discussion about any Value Added Tax” either, but reduction of the losses of the state owned enterprises was a key part of the envisaged reforms. He added that this is what the government team communicated as a priority. “This is our priority” he underlined, “what they will ask for as their priority we will wait to see once we meet.”
The IMF will have its own menu . And Asad will have no choice but to "eat" from this menu . And of course, "privatisation" will be served whether Asad likes it or not :mrgreen:

Please note that I read the link . And that is what I was precisely trying to convey ! That even some "relief" for "false blashphemy" as in this case, will be not acceptable to the extremist like the Khadim Rizvi types.
The second story in my posting clear shows that . Sorry, if it created an misinterpretation on your side .

I doubt that Umer would meet with female RAA agent Gita !( doubling as a IMF Chief Economist on the side !) Asad is already married . ! He likes to deal with the Mard Types , like the two he met in Bali :mrgreen:

Per Asad :

“I had three meetings with the IMF,” he said. “The first one was with Jaffar Mojarrad. The second was with Jihad Azhour and then finally with Christine Lagarde and David Lipton.

Anyway I am not sure if Maurice (Maury) Obstfeld has transitioned out of his role as Chief Economist and Gita Gopinath has transitioned in.

"Penniless Pakistan" Now Courting "Muslim" Azerbaijan For Its Oil Needs !

Azerbaijan Offers an Open Credit Line for Pakistan’s Oil Needs
Oct 12, 2018
Azerbaijan has extended an offer to set up an open credit line worth $100 million with Pakistan for the purchase of petroleum goods without any sovereign guarantees.
According to a government official, the offer, despite being small, is an immense relieve amid the increasing deficit in the balance of payments and diminishing foreign currency reserves.
When $ 15 Billion is required ASAP, even $ 100 Million is "very welcome" for this almost bankrupt, but nuclear ( Takat) nation :mrgreen:
In the present scenario, Pakistan is mainly reliant on the Gulf states like the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, and Kuwait, which will not be the case once a deal is signed between the Azerbaijan and Pakistan.
Pakis should grab this " offer" ( If it is as reported ) as beggars cannot be choosers :mrgreen:
As for signing a commercial deal, the governments have assigned the task to the state-run Socar of Azerbaijan and Pakistan State Oil (PSO).Notably, the proposal has not materialized into a working plan because of the bureaucratic impediments. In order to have a government-to-government deal, the Petroleum Division is required to get the approval of cabinet to waive the rules of Public Procurement Regulatory Authority (PPRA).
Scrap the red tape . Ummah nations have a habit of reneging on their promises. ( Saudia is a good example !) Strike while the "iron is hot " ( at least IMO) :mrgreen:
The energy ministries of both countries signed an inter-governmental agreement in 2017, but no progress could be made till then as the documents of the deal keep circulating between the PSO offices and the Petroleum Division.
Did the( Shia ) Azeris grease some palms in both the offices, if they are serious in helping their ( Sunni ) Ummah "friend" Pakistan :mrgreen:
Apart from the open credit line worth $100 million without sovereign guarantees, Azerbaijan has also offered favorable commercial terms and uninterrupted oil supply.
( BS walks, but money talks )
The presence of long-term government-to-government contracts between the state-owned companies shall make the oil imports more efficient and transparent.As per the government official, hopes are high that the Petroleum Division, working with PSO, will complete the legal requirements and reach a concrete agreement with a number of foreign state-owned enterprises.
Wonder, why this sudden Azerbaijani love for Pakiland . What is the quid pro quo. Solid Paki support against "Christian" Armenia in UN. "Scientist " Abdul Qadir Khan flying to Baku next week , to help set up an nuclear "lab" under his "Walmart" franchise :mrgreen:

Don’t be afraid, stay calm, says Imran
Yes! Finally! Leader with a crisp message for all pakis. (Logic be damned!). From the mind of a delusional idiot:
Prime Minister Imran Khan on Wednesday vowed to steer the country out of the prevailing crisis and get the affairs in order as he cajoled the nation not to get worried and be composed.
"We want loans so that we can pay off the loans" ( :roll: )
He reminded the people to have courage; there is nothing to worry about since the turbulence in the economy won't last long.
he would guide the nation on weekly basis
"as if the sky is going to fall (or) the day of judgment is upon us"
the economic reforms and austerity measures initiated by his government "will take six months to show results"
“The available options show that ours is a wealthy country. The only misfortune of this country has been facing lack of management,” Imran said.
five million affordable houses will be constructed in five years
He said the scheme will bring long-due prosperity in the country.
'Naya Pakistan Housing Authority' (NPHA)
Imran said that boosting the construction industry would directly solve the country’s unemployment problem.

Pakis Expect Further Liberalization Of Canadian Vijja Rules As Canadian ( But Somali Muslim :D ) Immigration Minister Lands In Isloo Next Month !

Canadian immigration minister to visit Pakistan next month
Daily Times
Oct 14, 2018
Canadian Minister for Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Ahmed Hussen is expected to undertake his first-ever official visit to Pakistan next month.
Pakistan High commissioner to Canada Tariq Azeem confirmed to Daily Times on phone that dates for the visit of the Canadian minister were being worked out by both governments. :roll:
So, obviously it is not confirmed . Maybe, it is just "hot air" ( AKA Fake News !)
This would be the first-ever visit by any Canadian immigration minister to Pakistan...
Pakistan is on the radar of Canadian Immigration for a different reason than what the Hon High Commissioner is taunting for in this interview !
“There is over 300,000 Pakistanis living across Canada and they are contributing to the development of Canada and also act as a bridge between Ottawa and Islamabad,” Pakistan high commissioner told Daily Times from Ottawa.
Just a few months ago ,a Canadian of Pakistani origin went on a shooting rampage in downtown Toronto for supposedly no apparent reasons and killed a few persons, before killing himself ! Talk about "contributing to the development of Canada" :evil:
A diplomatic source in the Pakistani Foreign Office told Daily Times that Pakistan would take up the issue of tight visa rules for Pakistani citizens, particularly for students, patients, businessmen and family visas with the immigration minister.
The Minister will probably listen and promise nothing . The fact that the Minister is originally from a Ummah country ( Somalia ) is NOT going to sway his decision one way or the other !
The Canadian government has extraordinarily tightened visa rules for Pakistani citizens, and original time duration of six weeks sometimes goes to six months, while passports of applicants are also kept by the High Commission in Islamabad. Furthermore, visa processing system has been moved out of Pakistan, which is yet another reason for the delay.
The Pakistaniyat factor is very much on the minds of the Govt of Canada !
Pakistani citizens working in different private and public sector organisations even media persons, who have been invited by various Canadian organisations with complete documents, are facing difficulties and delays in getting Canadian visa timely.”I had an official invitation from Canadian Foreign Office in Ottawa for an officially sponsored short-term course in Montreal by the Canadian government, but was refused the visa by the High Commission in Islamabad with the reason that the applicant did not have a strong linkage to his home country,” a Pakistani citizen employed with a foreign NGO told Daily Times on the condition of anonymity.
Pakis have been known to enter Canadian cities as "tourists" then magically disappear once their tourist visas are over. The latest incident involved a PIA Air Hostess who landed in Toronto Airport a few months ago . But missed her return flight back to Isloo or LaWhore or Karachi . Ended up disappearing underground in Toronto ! Missing Person Report filed for her with Police. Turned out that the Khattoon had planned this all along !!!

Dark And Hidden Secrets Of A "Famous La-Whori Jail" ! Read And Enjoy :mrgreen:

The dark side of Lahore Fort
Daily Times -Tania Qureshi
Oct 14, 2018
The cell which was once used by the British to imprison freedom fighters was later used to house disorienting voice during the brutal Zia regime
Former prime minister Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto, political party leader Wali Khan, former Punjab chief minister Hanif Ramay, journalist Agha Shorash Kashmiri, Baloch leader Akbar Bugti and many political workers of PPP were imprisoned here
Will Imran carry on this "tradition" by putting Ganja and Dar "secure" here :twisted:
The first prime minister of India, Jawahar Lal Nehru and a few members of his cabinet were also imprisoned in this jail. Finally Pakistan became an independent state in 1947, but the use of jail did not end with the British Raj.
For many years this place was used for torturing people because of personal vendettas by the various political parties.
It is said that the cell was closed for torture by Benazir Bhutto in 1988. She declared that no prisoner would be tortured here and thus a time of tranquility touched this cell. The watchmen of Lahore Fort, Liaqat Ali and Sanober, said that they were unaware of whom the police brought in the cell. At present this room is locked and not in use. It is not opened for tourists. The Walled City of Lahore Authority would soon be conserving this place and opening it up for tourists as well as placing plaques that narrate the place’s history and names of those imprisoned here.It is also said that this place was once connected with the Royal Kitchen which are now restored. When the British took over the fort, they converted the Royal Kitchens of Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan’s era into prisons and offices of the soldiers. Later when the structure collapsed most of the cells vanished except the Special Jail. Maybe it stayed intact in order to narrate its stories to the visitors.
Are monies going to be "allocated" once the IMF Moolah is received, for "necessary renovations" , so the place can be "updated" with the latest (torture) equipment from Massaland for possible future use :twisted:

The Khanate Of Imran Or Imran Of The Khanate :roll:

Khanate takes shape
Express Tribune
Fahd Hussein
Oct 14, 2018
You don’t sit easy on the Iron Throne.
Is it not made of sand :roll:
Ask Junejo. Chucked out. Ask Nawaz. Ousted, overthrown, jailed. Ask Benazir. Assassinated. Ask Gilani. Disqualified.
And ask Imran. Already in dire straits.
A trend? A curse? Or a systemic malfunction? Something haunts the crown. Could it be an acute deficiency of competence? Imran is a hands off PM. He "orders" and his minions obey !
Seven weeks into the Khanate of Imran, the lay of the land paints an eerily familiar picture. The lush green rolling lawns of unbridled optimism are slowly sliding into the descent to despondency. You can smell the fear of inflation and the stench of stagnation. Our threshold of pain is about to be tested.
But the ( empty ) "promise" of an Malsic Farewell State is still "powerful" with the unwashed Abduls :mrgreen:
But here’s the funny thing: Imran of the Khanate continues to say the right things. He’s got the issues identified correctly; he’s got the problems aligned precisely; and he’s got the ailments diagnosed properly. He is oozing passion and exuding determination. He should be on top of things.
And yet, contradictions are sweeping across the Khanate like a raging storm. Imran of the Khanate is saying the right things but not doing the right things. He has his heart in the right place, but doesn’t have his team in the right place. He is talking the big talk but not painting the big picture.
In short, the captain is playing with a cross bat on a leg break delivery.
Cricket analogy !
As a comparison, “the average inflation in the first quarter of this fiscal year was 5.86 per cent.” And you thought stuff was expensive then. Buckle up.Prices are about to go through the roof. Gas has spiked, electricity is primed to do so as is petrol. The rupee will suffer yet another devaluation, and that trip to the grocery store will make you weep tears of financial blood.
Farewell to the Islamic Welfare State :roll:
The story continues: “Once the inflation hits the roof, it would be impossible for the State Bank of Pakistan to keep the real interest rates negative. In such a scenario, the IMF would push Pakistan to hike the key interest rates to a level which should be slightly higher than the inflation levels…” (14 per cent projected).As a comparison, the interest rates at the start of the year were six per cent approximately.
But Imran and his Finance Minister have said that they will not take "dictation" from IMF :mrgreen:
The Khanate is barren for details. By going to the IMF, the government has lost face and gained time. What will it do with this time? The Khanate is barren for details. We restructure and reform the economy once we get fiscal space through the IMF loan, says the government. Brave words. But what kind of restructuring and what sort of reform? The Khanate is barren for details. We will turn around Public Sector Enterprises and thereby stop the bleeding of billions of rupees, claims the government. ( Asad has ruled out privatization ! Zardari Junior will rile up the awaam if "jewels" like PIA are privatized !) But will they turn around these white elephants through privatisation? Through massive reduction in employees’ strength? Through some ingenious sleight of financial hand? The Khanate is barren for details.
When people are being told to brave the economic storm about to hit our shores, they deserve to be told how the captain will navigate them out of it. Remember that $200 billion of looted wealth that the PTI was supposed to bring back? Remember the avalanche of money that the overseas Pakistanis were expected to hand over to the captain once he was in power? Remember the towering claims and mighty boasts? Not happening.The PTI has had to eat its words. Sadly the people cannot live on words alone. So where is Plan B, Prime Minister? What happens to the Khanate after the IMF?
You don’t sit easy on the Iron Throne.
It will be a Throne Made of Sand :mrgreen:

Massa Based PAYPAL Does Not Want To Touch "Terror Infested" Pakistan :mrgreen:

Asad Umar says ready to meet Paypal CEO and ask, ‘why are you ignoring such a big market’
ARY
Web Desk
Oct 14, 2018
ISLAMABAD: Expressing surprise over online payment giant Paypal’s’ cold shoulder’ to Pakistani market, Finance Minister Asad Umar says he is ready to catch the next flight and meet the Paypal CEO to invite him to come to Pakistan.
In an interview with PTI social media, Umar said if Paypal didn’t come to Pakistan, then there must be some alternative of it.“Either Paypal or any other alternate online payment system but in the next four months or so we should have an internationally acceptable payment gateway for the increasing number of startups in the country,” the minister added.
Paypal wants to be in the good books of CIA, FBI and NSA . It does not want to "touch" Pakistan with a 10 foot pole :mrgreen:
Regarding closure of spectrum sales in Pakistan, Umar stated: “Spectrum sale has been shut down. Only 124 megahertz spectrum has been opened by Pakistan while even Myanmar has a higher number than 400 megahertz. Why are we still sticking to that? This is not a finite resource that could vanish.” :roll:
Before flying for the World Bank and IMF meetings, he said, “I had three meetings on this subject because this is the future,” stressed the minister.“I have met Prime Minister Imran Khan and IT minister in the past few days just to make sure we are moving in the right direction in this regard,” the minister said.
:(( The "dream" of competing with Dushman India- in the IT sector - is still on !

Immy Govt "Clueless" About Money Laundering And So-Called Stolen Monies . They Are Now Seeking Chini Help !

Govt plans to sign agreements with China, UAE to check money laundering: PM’s assistant
ARY News- Web Desk
Oct 14, 2018
ISLAMABAD: Special Assistant to the Prime Minister on Accountability Shahzad Akbar on Sunday said that the government would sign agreements with China ( more Chinification in the works :mrgreen: ) and the UAE ( HQ of shady deals :mrgreen: ) for the exchange of information and joint investigation to check the money laundering.
“Nine to ten billion dollars of money laundering was annually taking place from Pakistan. Since the relevant institutions such as the FIA have been activated and being fully supported, therefore, cases of corruption and those of fake accounts are being unearthed,” he said while addressing a press conference in Islamabad.
Where action is lacking, buzz words ( relevant institutions , been activated and being fully supported ) will hopefully fill the gap :mrgreen:
The special assistant said the system had been streamlined. He said a special asset recovery unit had been established in the PM office which was working under his supervision.
Where action is lacking, buzz words ( relevant institutions , been activated and being fully supported ) will hopefully fill the gap, Part II :mrgreen:
He said that the previous governments were responsible for current economic situation of the country. He said besides huge debt burden, the losses of public sector enterprises stood over one trillion rupees.
Only "one trillion" ! The other day, some other Minister quoted 3 trillion :mrgreen:
Shahzad Akbar said the government had finalized a broad based mutual legal assistance law to obtain evidence from foreign jurisdictions about financial crimes and mega corruption cases involving Pakistanis.
Switzerland and Bartania have already thrown "cold water" on the Paki proposals !
The PM’s assistant said that a bilateral treaty was again being ratified with the Swiss authorities which would enable the country to get the details of the bank accounts opened by Pakistani nationals. He said that Pakistan had already signed a treaty with Britain which would help speed up the investigations into different high profile asset cases.
Hope is always eternal :mrgreen:
The special assistant said he was also visiting Britain next week where he would meet with his counterpart of National Crime Agency and also hold discussions on the pending requests for extradition including that of former finance minister Ishaq Dar.
The "crore commanders" are already there in London, discussing this very subject at British GHQ ! There is no need for "The Special Assistant" to make this - all expense paid - trip again . He should remember the Kaptaan's AUSTERITY !!
Shahzad Akbar said that over the last decade or so no effort was made for the asset recovery despite the fact that countries such as China and India achieved great success in the asset recovery.
India is ready to "divulge" its "trade secrets" on this subject , if asked in writing !

Uncertainty wipes $41b off PSX capitalisation - Salman Siddiqui

KARACHI: From an uncertain political climate, Pakistan has transitioned to what can be called a relatively stable environment. However, this 180-degree shift has come at a hefty cost as the country and its stock market have suffered heavily.

The real economy has taken a massive hit from the political developments. Resultantly, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) has anticipated that Pakistan’s economic growth will be below 3% in the current fiscal year 2018-19 compared to a 13-year high growth of 5.8% in fiscal year 2017-18.

The Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX), a barometer to gauge the country’s economic performance, has continued to reflect sad stories of economic stress since the political drama took centre stage, beginning with the Panama Papers leaks.

The bourse has suffered a massive reduction of $41 billion in market capitalisation to $58 billion on Friday (October 12, 2018) compared to $99 billion on May 24, 2017 when the benchmark KSE-100 index hit an all-time high at 52,876 points. WOW! PSE has LOST 41.4% of its Value!"

The historic level was achieved on expectation of Pakistan’s reclassification into the MSCI Emerging Markets index from the Frontier Markets index.

“Panama leaks-led political instability, which later on converted into economic instability…and rupee depreciation, has caused a wipe-off (of $41 billion) in market capitalisation,” Topline Securities Chief Executive Officer Muhammad Sohail told The Express Tribune.

In rupee terms, the market capitalisation dropped 26% to Rs7,705 billion by Friday compared to Rs10,446 billion on the day the PSX hit the historic high. The PSX benchmark KSE-100 index has suffered a loss of 29% to 37,515.93 points on Friday compared to the historic high of 52,876.46 points in May last year. 29% is in Index Points. In Monetary Terms it has lost 41.4%

The health of the economy continued to deteriorate as then premiers Nawaz Sharif and Shahid Khaqan Abbasi and several ministers including finance and commerce ministers failed to find time to look into the matter because they faced graft cases.

PSX expected to maintain uptrend as major sectors benefit

The political instability gave birth to tough economic challenges. Exports fell while imports surged. At the same time, oil prices recovered in world markets and put more burden on Pakistan’s economy, which relies heavily on imported oil.

Lack of focus on economic developments led to rapid depletion of the country’s foreign currency reserves, widening of current account and fiscal deficits, mounting foreign debt to historic high and balance of payments crisis.

The current government has formally approached the IMF to acquire a bailout programme to deal with economic challenges as foreign currency reserves have dropped to less than one and a half month of import cover at $8.3 billion. It is a case of Double Accounting. The True Amount of Forex held by SBP is US$ 2.5 Billion

To deal with these issues, the State Bank of Pakistan (SBP) has let the currency depreciate by a massive 25% to Rs131.93 against the US dollar since December 2017 and revised up the benchmark interest rate by 275 basis points to a 44-month high of 8.5% since January 2018. The IMF has suggested further depreciation and rate hike.

PSX outlook

“Going forward, the PSX would perform in line with cues that will come out of Pakistan-IMF talks for a new bailout…as to how stringent the terms and conditions for the bailout would be. Moreover, the duration of the downward spell in global stock markets would also indicate the direction of the local bourse,” Sohail said.

PSX lifts moratorium on purchase of its shares

Arif Habib Limited Head of Research Samiullah Tariq appeared quite optimistic and anticipated that “the PSX benchmark KSE-100 index will rebound to 42,000 points in six to eight months.”

He said the current government had identified root causes of the prevailing economic problems and was expected to take corrective measures soon.

“Prevailing oil prices at world markets and downturn at global stock markets may also cue PSX in short to medium run,” he added.

Linkages with China in textile discussed - Our Correspondent

From the above Article :
Participants were of the view that it was a relatively low energy consuming industry and had immense job creation potential. In that regard, exploring linkages with China, especially with the industry on China’s west coast, which is closer to Pakistan, in the form of contract manufacturing of garments could be an interesting avenue to explore.
Humble Request : Oh ”Wise Members of this Forum kindly let me know the Major Port(s) located on China’s west coast, which is closer to Pakistan. - Thanks in Advance :mrgreen:

People have lost faith in PM Imran, says Khaqan Abbasi - News Desk

Former prime minister Shahid Khaqan Abbasi said on Sunday the people have lost faith in Prime Minister Imran Khan as was evident from the results of today’s by-elections.

Abbasi, who won the NA-124 seat with a margin of over 45,000 votes against Ghulam Mohiuddin of the ruling PTI, was speaking to supporters and party workers in Lahore, Express News reported.

He secured 75,012 votes while Mohiuddin managed to get 30,115, according to unofficial results.

PML-N, PTI in neck and neck after 80% unofficial results

“Today’s by-election have proved wrong all tall claims made against our party … by the grace of Almighty we have achieved a historic win by bagging double votes as compared to PTI,” he said.

However, the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) leader claimed that today’s by-polls had been rigged just like the July 25 general elections in some constituencies.

The former prime minister said that, “I want to ask the Chief Election Commissioner who is in charge of the polling stations? It has become abundantly clear to me from everywhere [polling stations] I went to that the presiding officer is not incharge”.

‘By-polls won’t be fair either’ says senior politician

He said that if the ECP chief is unable to answer this question then he must step down.

Abbasi said that the opposition’s voice was being muzzled while the PTI could do anything with impunity.

He claimed that the public’s mandate was being stolen through this ‘rigging’.

Comments : It is apparent that all the incidents of "rigging" have been carried out under the auspices of the Terroristani Army.

- Yes, you can say that he is extremely Pro- Pakjabi and loathes Non - Pakjabis. But that does not mean that he is "anti-women

This is a perfectly "wise question"!

I was thinking of having my Gujarati and Sindhi Friends to Export Indian Textile and other Goods via the Port of Gwadiwadiyaar to the West Coast of China which is much nearer by transporting through CPEC - BOAR Highway System.

KSE-100 plunges over 1,000 points in intra-day trading - Our Correspondent

KARACHI: Stocks once again came under pressure as the KSE-100 index nose-dived over 1,000 points in intra-day trading falling below the significant psychological barrier of 36,600.

Despite the government’s announcement of returning to the International Monetary Fund (IMF) for a bailout, confidence of the investors could not be restored as the selling spree continued.

Fuelling the bearish trend, was the IMF’s projection that the average inflation rate in Pakistan might hit 14 per cent by June next year – a level that if reached could result in interest rates peaking to 15 per cent and economy drastically slowing down.

Market watch: Stocks hammered as KSE-100 dives 861 points

At 12:38pm, the KSE-100 Index, a benchmark for market performance, was down 1,016.35 points or 2.71 per cent to hover around 36,501.58. The current level was last seen in June 2016.

Commenting on the situation, Topline Securities’ analyst Nabeel Khursheed said IMF’s latest forecasts on Pakistan’s economy have painted a very bleak picture.

“The forecast is driving the market down. The higher inflation means exorbitant increase in the benchmark interest,” he added.

The higher inflation along with interest rate would put the economy severely under pressure, Khursheed remarked.

Other analysts said foreign selling and redemption calls to mutual fund managers to sell part of their holdings at current low prices, also contributed negatively to the index.

Market watch: KSE-100 drops 473 points on tough measures suggested by IMF

The bourse has suffered a massive reduction of $41 billion in market capitalisation to $58 billion on Friday (October 12, 2018) compared to $99 billion on May 24, 2017 when the benchmark KSE-100 index hit an all-time high at 52,876 points.

The unfolding political drama and the deteriorating macroeconomic indicators have hit the stock market hard.

Immy Minion Asad : 1. Pakistan Will Only Share "Normal" Debt Related Info With IMF 2. Will Not Reduce Military Budget

Pakistan to share CPEC debt details with IMF: Asad Umar :roll:
Express Tribune
Oct 13, 2018
ISLAMABAD: Pakistan is ready to share details of the debt related to the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) with the International Monetary Fund (IMF), and the decision to approach the Fund was taken after consultations with friendly countries, said Finance Minister Asad Umar on Saturday.
Umar, however, rejected the US State Department’s statement, suggesting that the debt accrued on CPEC projects was to blame for the country’s current economic crisis.
Burying head in sand, will not make the problem go away !
The IMF, he said, had asked for details of loans, including ones secured in relation to the CPEC projects, for analysing the debt sustainability. Pakistan, the minister said, would share “normal debt-related information about CPEC ( implying that there are other "secret" agreements, which they will not divulge :roll: ) with the IMF”.
The IMF team, Umar said, was scheduled to arrive in Pakistan on November 7 to negotiate the programme, likely to span over a three-year period.
Will the IMF "respect" Paki sensitivity and not send any "RAA agents" into the delegation ( Obama had sent Rajiv Shah AID Chief to Isloo which irked them !)
He said that Pakistan was facing a financing gap of $12 billion this year, adding that this gap would not be bridged by IMF alone.
“We will turn to friendly countries again if the IMF terms are unacceptable to Pakistan during talks on the programme,” he asserted.
Hence, the "begging" from the Saudis !
The minister also said that Saudi Arabia, China and the United Arab Emirates had not placed tough conditions for bailing Pakistan out.But he declined to cite specific reasons why these countries had not provided any financial assistance to Pakistan.
The Taqqiya factor is very much alive !
Umar said that the matter of obtaining oil on deferred payment from Saudi Arabia was still “on agenda and no final decision has been taken yet”.
The Saudis, being their nature, have not decided yet. The Saudis have more important matters to encounter, the Kashoggi thing :twisted:
According to the finance minister, the US had only 16.5 per cent voting rights and the decision on Pakistan’s request would be taken by the IMF’s executive board with a 51 per cent majority vote.“I hope that the IMF charter will prevail” while deciding on Pakistan’s request, he said.
Massa will extract their price. But will also take the Echendee factor into account :mrgreen:
Categorically rejecting the US assertion that the country was in an economic mess because of the CPEC-related debt repayments, Umar said that over the next three years, such repayments amounted to just $300 million a year, which “is very nominal against $9 billion of total debt repayments payable during this fiscal year alone”.
He said that this situation had also been explained to IMF Managing Director Christine Lagarde and the US undersecretary of state.
Burying head in sand, will not make problem go away . !
The minister said that he had been contending for quite some time that economic conditions could lead to national security issues and the government would not compromise on matters of national security.
Military Budget CANNOT be touched !
“I was clear that we need a bailout package either from our friends or from the IMF,” he said.Without disclosing exact numbers, Umar said that Pakistan’s net foreign currency reserves were far below than the current gross level of $8.3 billion.
The minister agreed that the IMF programme would carry adverse implications for lower and middle-income groups.When asked to comment on IMF’s assessment about a double-digit inflation and lower than three per cent economic growth, Umar said that it was just an IMF hypothesis and it would be discussed once formal programme talks began.“Pakistan cannot afford to bear huge economic losses and privatisation is not a solution to these economic ills,” he said.
Farewell to the Islamic Welfare State :roll:

Scared Kammandu Refuses To Testify Via Video Link. Says He Is Too Ill :roll: ( Just Last Month He Was Seen Watching A Kirket Match !)

Judicial commission to record Musharraf's statement in treason case
Dawn
Oct 15, 2018
After former military dictator retired Gen Pervez Musharraf ─ who has been out of the country since March 2016 ─ declined to record his statement in a treason case via video link, a special court on Monday ordered the formation of a judicial commission that will go abroad to record his statement in accordance with Section 342 of the Code of Criminal Procedure.
The former president's lawyer told a special court bench comprising Justice Yawar Ali, Justice Tahira Safdar and Justice Nazar Akbar seized with a high treason case initiated against Musharraf for suspending the Constitution on Nov 3, 2007 ─ an offence for which he was indicted on March 31, 2014 ─ that his client was was unable to record his statement via video link since he is indisposed.
He can still wear sunglasses when testifying , as he did watching the match against India :mrgreen:
Justice Ali asked the lawyer whether Musharraf had been diagnosed with cancer, to which the counsel responded that the former military ruler had been diagnosed with heart problems.
Then nothing has changed . This is the same old wine sherbet in a new bottle :mrgreen:
"He says he is not a coward. He wishes to appear before the court himself and present the evidence in his defence," the lawyer added. :lol:
"The accused is in a foreign country right now. According to his lawyer, he is very ill," Justice Ali noted.
Dubai cannot be called a "foreign" country. Pakis awaam and elite fly there to spend the weekend . And "looted" wealth is also stored there :mrgreen:
"We are told that Pervez Musharraf cannot appear in court due to his illness," the bench observed. "He wishes to record his statement in the treason case."
Subsequently, the court decided to order the formation of a judicial commission that will travel abroad in order to record Musharraf's statement in the case.
When the commission lands in Dubai, Mush will fly to London on the pretext that he has an appointment with his Hakim :mrgreen:
This is also Justice Ali's last hearing of the case, as he will be retiring soon. Future case proceedings will either be heard by a new special court bench or by the high court, DawnNewsTV reported.The case was adjourned until Nov 14.
Hope, Mush does not "go upstairs" before Nov 14, :mrgreen:

By-elections prove future is PML-N’s: Nawaz

ISLAMABAD: Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) lifetime supremo Nawaz Sharif on Monday thanked the public for supporting his party during the by-elections 2018, saying that the polls are an indicator of Nawaz league’s soaring popularity.

Speaking to the media outside the accountability court, the former prime minister lauded the public for supporting PML-N in by-elections. “I want to thank the public for supporting us through thick and thin. Our victory in Punjab and performance across country is evidence that the future is PML-N’s. People are already tired of PTI in just 50 days.

“The public came out and voted for the PML-N despite sanctions on party leadership. I was jailed, Shehbaz Sharif is in NAB’s custody and we all know how Khawaja Saad Rafique is being treated. All of this has only made the connection between the party and public stronger,” Nawaz continued.

He also criticised the PTI government for failing to fulfill its promises saying that PML-N government had produced tangible results in comparison. “In our 5-year tenure, the value of dollar did not rise above Rs104. The public was happy and we were working continuously to improve things, but the current government has broken all records. The dollar now stands at Rs135,” the former premier said.

According to the unofficial results from 11 National Assembly constituencies, both PML-N and Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) managed to win 4 seats each, while PML-Quaid won 2 and Muttahida Majlis-e-Amal won 1 seat.

The results for provincial assembly seats across the country saw the ruling PTI lead by 11. In Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa, PTI bagged 6 seats, PML-N claimed 1, while Awami National Party (ANP) secured 2 seats. In Punjab, PML-N beat PTI marginally with 6 seats to 5 respectively. Both the parties, however, failed to win any seats in Sindh and Balochistan.

CPEC loans not responsible for Pakistan’s economic crisis: China
While rejecting the impression that the loans under China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) were the cause of current financial situation of Pakistan, he said, the Chinese side had explained many times that the CPEC was undertaken by the two governments under the principle of consultations and contributions for shared benefits.
“All the projects and financing arrangements are made by the two sides on equal consultations,” he added.
the debt incurred from the CPEC accounted for low proportion. So, it was not the reason for Pakistan’s financial difficulties.
In other words, "humble cheena is not responsible for the financial dire straights pakhanistan is in now. Pakhanistan is itself responsible for that unholy mess. Pakis knew what they were getting into (read" "equal consultations"). Keep us out of this hole".

PTI suffers big electoral upset
Prime Minister Imran Khan’s Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) suffered a severe blow in Sunday’s by-polls, as the opposition alliance gained five more seats in delicately balanced National Assembly, further reducing the ruling party’s margin for formation of the federal government.
The PTI had a major upset, as voters in two constituencies – NA-131 Lahore and NA-35 Bannu – changed their mind and elected members of the opposition parties.

Economy cannot be fixed by hurling expletives: Khursheed Shah
PPP leader Syed Khursheed Shah has said that Pakistan’s ailing economy cannot be fixed by hurling expletives.
“The government has announced a failed economic policy. Our national debt has increased owing to the rise in dollar's value," Shah told media persons at Sukkur on Monday.
Fear and uncertainty have gripped the nation regarding the dismal state of economy.
Taking a jibe at Prime Minister Imran Khan's Naya Pakistan Housing Programme, Shah said, "It is a drama and beyond understanding. It will be a bigger mistake than the Ashiana Housing scheme."
"How will a man who earns Rs3,000 pay back a loan of Rs1.5 million?"

Pakistan "Dare Not Condemn" Saudia If It Knows Where It's Bread Naan Is Buttered :twisted:

Pakistan Foreign Office calculated response over Turkey Saudi Arabia spat
Oct 15, 2018

This is like the Iran - Saudia Tiff, where, a few months ago, the Pakis wanted to play their role as "honest broker" , which was not taken seriously by the Iranis in the first place. Then the Saudis promised concessional oil (but no cash !) to the Pakis , when Imran went there for "begging" . No less than Trade Advisor Razzak Dawood lamented about this . So, the Pakis are firmly parked in the Saudi camp . Now, the same scenario is repeated again . The Pakis do not have the "guts" to confront and condemn Saudi Arabia for the heinous act of "murdering" a Green Card Holding Saudi Citizen ( Jamal Khashoggi ) . Turkee does! . It has sided with Qatar in the Saudi - Qatar inter Ummah civil war . Pakistan does not have the "luxury" of such independence. It need Saudia for Moolah . IMO, cannot rule out Raheel Sharif's hand in this disappearance . He is a close advisor to MBS . And Massa politicos and establishments are clearly blaming MBS for this mess. And it needs Turkee also for moral support on the "core issue" plus it needs second fauji maal from Turkey because the "tap " from Massa has shut down now . Hence :
ISLAMABAD - Pakistan Foreign Office (FO) on Monday has responded over the spat between two brotherly and friendly counties Saudi Arabia and Turkey.
Pakistan hopes that both Turkey and Saudi Arabia will jointly probe the disappearance of journalist Jamal Khashoggi.
FO Spokesperson Dr Muhammad Faisal, while responding to a question about the journalist's disappearance, said: "We understand that the investigation is ongoing and it would therefore be appropriate to await its outcome." :((
Another example of Pakis punching their weight above their stature as world player .

PS: But they are still the one and only "Islami Atomi Takat" . And that counts even if they are almost bankrupt! ( they just made it to the recently published "most powerful nations list" based on this dubious achievement . All their other determining parameters were in the "basement league") :mrgreen:
