Ladies & Gentlemen of the Jury - Here is Dr. Farrukh Saleem's take on "GDP" Growth Figures :

Reverse Robin Hood - Capital suggestion

First the good news: GDP growth at 5.28 percent is at a 10-year record. The rate of inflation hovers at around 4 percent compared to a high of 25 percent during the PPP government, eight years ago. And we are in a low interest rate environment. Alas, that’s about it.

For the first time in Pakistan’s history, our annual budget exercise has allocated an amount of Rs2.1 trillion to a totally discretionary component of the budget – euphemistically the Public Sector Development Programme (PSDP). Budget 2017-18 is truly an election-year budget. Yes, the PML-N government at the federal level now has an election purse of over Rs1 trillion plus the PML-N government in Punjab has Rs500 billion.

Imagine: a Rs2.1 trillion election purse means Rs40,000 for each and every Pakistani voter. Imagine: a Rs2.1 trillion election purse means Rs150,000 for each and every Pakistani voter who voted for PML-N in 2013. Imagine: a Rs2.1 trillion election purse means Rs75,000 for each and every family that lives in Pakistan. Who can beat that?

The single largest expense item in Budget 2017-18 is the Rs2.1 trillion PSDP. Of the Rs2.1 trillion, 70 percent goes into ‘steel and cement’ projects, 20 percent into the buying of vehicles and a mere 6 percent into human capital (other: 4 percent). Of the Rs2.1 trillion, estimates on how much leaks out in the form of corrupt practices ranges from a low of Rs200 billion to a high of Rs600 billion.

Budget 2017-18 has absolutely nothing for the most deserving segments of our population. Imagine: around 30 percent of our population or 60 million Pakistanis are managing to survive below the level of poverty – at or below Rs200 per day. Imagine: around 25 percent of our population or around 50 million Pakistanis are mentioned. There’s nothing in the budget for all the people that are below the poverty line or suffer from malnutrition.

On the GDP growth front there’s an anomaly that I am trying to understand: The Economic Survey 2016-17 states that the electricity and gas sectors expanded by a mere 3.5 percent. How come the GDP expanded by 5.3 percent? Isn’t there always a correlation between economic growth and the amount of electricity produced?

Here’s the hard reality about the energy sector: The Economic Survey states that the installed capacity has gone up from 22.9 million MW last year to 25.1 million MW in 2017. But power generation has gone down from 101,970GW/h (July-March) last year to 85,206 GW/h (July-March). In essence, there is a lot of generation capacity out there, but the government is not being able to generate electricity out of it. That’s really serious.

A budget ought to be visionary. Our budgets are just numbers. A budget ought to have objectives. Our budgets are all about numerical targets. A budget has to be qualitative. Our budgets are all quantitative.

Budget 2017-18 is another in a series of ‘reverse Robin Hood’ operations – ‘stealing from the poor and distributing among the rich’. Around 60 percent of all taxes in the budget are regressive in nature (a regressive tax is a ‘tax that takes a larger percentage of income from low-income earners than from high-income earners’). In essence, the poorest of the poor Pakistanis are being burdened more and more as the government fails to collect taxes from the rich. That’s a classic case of ‘reverse Robin Hood’.

Being able to generate power is one side of the story. Being able to evacuate that power through creaky state discom infra is quite another.

We are already power surplus but states still have power cuts. Defies logic ? Not really. State discoms infra modernisation has not happened in lock step with increase in power generation.

A better way to benchmark power in India would be a slogan that says ' Our industries and shops are DG set and homes inverter free' by say 2020. It would take a very bold NaMo to make that kind of commitment. We are not there yet.

For now, let's celebrate supply side achievements.

The Economic Survey of 2016-2017 established that Pakistan’s population is roughly 19 crores out of which 10 crore were men while 9 crore were women. …………………………..

In the "constant fertility" variant of the UN population projection for Pakistan, Pakistan reaches 214 million by 2020. So these estimates suggest Pakistan is growing in population faster than that!!!!

2kg of heroin recoevered from passenger at Islamabad Airport .

The Anti-Narcotics Force (ANF) on Sunday recovered two kilogrammes of heroin ( only 2 kg ? ) from a passenger at the Benazir Bhutto International Airport, officials said.

ANF officials said the passenger, Ghulam Abbas, was due to travel on a Qatar Airlines flight to Italy via Doha on Saturday night when the drugs were recovered from his handbag during checking at the immigration counter.Abbas, a resident of Chakwal, denied he had any knowledge ( just like Nawaz Sharif is denying siphoning Paki money abroad , and just like Imran Khan is denying fathering a child out of wedlock!) about the presence of heroin in his bag, officials said.

The suspect was arrested and shifted to ANF headquarters. A First Information Report (FIR) was later registered against him under the Control of Narcotics Substances Act, 1997. ( If he is "influential with powerful sifarish" or grease the palm of corrupt officials, he can go scot-free !)

The incident comes as several cases have emerged of narcotics being recovered from flights originating from Pakistan.Earlier this week, 20kg of heroin were recovered from a Pakistan International Airlines (PIA) flight at Islamabad airport. Maybe, this was his way of financing his round trip to Italy and also make a profit out of it

Departments spending billions more than allocated
Now, that's a paki trait!

A number of government departments have dramatically exceeded the amounts allocated to them in the budget for FY2016-17, with certain divisions spending as much as four to eight times the amount allocated to them

Human Rights Division overshot its budget by Rs 432m

“Money is moved from one pocket to another, this process is known as re-appropriation”

The interior ministry, for example, ended up spending far more than the budgeted amount on account of Rangers and civil armed forces. The ministry actually ended up spending Rs115.5bn against an allocation of Rs86.6bn, a 33pc increase.

Interesting. It is either that the pakis don't know how to budget or or stay within the allocated budget or don't care about where/what they spend. After all SeePack will solve all their problems one day.

World Bank approves $61 m to fight stunting in Sindh children
Foreign credits to solve self-created problems.

...particularly in some districts in Sindh where children are shorter than the average heights

stunting rates are more than 40 per cent.

Sindh, with an estimated population of 51m comprises about a quarter of the country’s population; it is the second most populous province of the country and is nearly 50pc urban. The most recent data shows that 48pc of children under five suffered from stunting and 15pc from wasting.

“Stunting is a serious problem in Pakistan and remains unchanged for 50 years. It severely impacts the learning of children”

Significant cut in atomic energy development budget

The budget for the development of nuclear energy in the country for 2017-18 has declined by almost 47 per cent against the expenditure incurred in the outgoing fiscal year

The development budget for the PAEC in the coming year is Rs15.08 billion, whereas the commission has spent Rs28.6bn in the outgoing fiscal. However, of the spending, foreign loans accounted for Rs17.56bn, mainly from China for setting up the Chashma Nuclear Power Plants III and IV.

So budgeting has been outsourced, hainji? Let that be the problem for future generations of stunted pakis.

Paki Ayesha Takes Issues With So-Called Ehtram- E- Ramzan ( B.S.) Law [*][/url]

[*] Safely ensconced in Amsterdam !
[/color]
Why should minorities suffer in Ramazan?

The holy month of Ramazan is here once again in all its glory and our hypocrisy. Yes, you read me right. Come Ramazan and all of us put our pious cloaks on just like all the female anchors adorn dupattas on their heads in Ramazan, sidelining all the Bollywood numbers they shook their rears to, in their morning shows with na-mehram (men who do not have an Islamic legal relationship with the woman) guests. Haw. It is safe and sound to make such observations from the safe distance of Aamsterdaam

The hypocrisy isn’t just evident on the television shows during the holy month; it is also further propagated by laws like Ehtram-e-Ramazan that makes eating, smoking, and drinking in public places illegal for Muslims before sunset in the reverence of Islam. Public spaces include restaurants, canteens, bridges, lanes, and even the confines of your own house, according to a clause of the Ehtram-e-Ramazan Ordinance. Only hospital canteens – because they feed patients – and primary school canteens are exempt from this law. Ehtram-e-Ramazan law has been operational since Zia’s regime, the regime also infamous for the enforcement of discriminatory blasphemy laws. Ever since that , the Mullahs have not looked back and have intruded in all aspects of Paki life and till date no one has been able to challenge them , lest they become Wajib-ul- cutlet. Countless examples abound !

My driver, who is a Christian, recently told me that he hadn’t had lunch because all the restaurants were closed. Since he is always on the roads driving, especially during the daytime, it’s very difficult for him to be able to go home, eat and resume his work. As a consequence of the enforcement of the Ehtram-e-Ramazan law, not only my driver, but several other non-Muslim and even Muslim (who chose not to fast because of health or other reasons) labourers have to face the difficulty of finding a place to eat at during this month. Hope she is not among those" Oversees Muslims" who start "demanding" this and that once they cannot get their "Islamic Ways" in Amsterdam or Holland or Europe !/quote]
Similarly, non-Muslim students and teachers in secondary schools, colleges and universities also suffer since these institutions’ canteens remain closed in reverence of Ramazan. Kainat*, a Christian student, at a well-reputed school comments on the Ehtram-e-Ramazan law saying, I respect the fact that Muslims fast, but it’s slightly ridiculous to shut the school canteen down altogether without making arrangements for non-Muslim students.
Even though non-Muslims are exempt from this law, there have been incidents when they have paid a price for eating in public. In August 2009, two Christians, Gull Masih and Ashir Sohail, were arrested for snacking at Bismillah Hotel on their way to Lahore by bus. Despite having acknowledged their faith as non-Muslims, the police took them to Silanwali police station and registered a case, nonetheless, for desecrating Ramazan.

Despite having acknowledged their faith as non-Muslims, the police took them to Silanwali police station and registered a case, nonetheless, for desecrating Ramazan. Hope that she is "liberal" enough not to "demand" that her Dutch citizens " accommodate their Muslim guests" in Holland by closing all restaurants, canteens, liquor shops etc
Having said that, I do believe it is an extremely thoughtful and respectful gesture to avoid eating in front of people who are fasting, but that I think is a personal choice and must not be preached. Nowhere in the Holy Quran or Hadith, does it say that the state is responsible for making sure that all its citizens fast and, that nobody be permitted to eat in front of those who are fasting. The concept of a "State" did not exist in the Golden Age Of Malsi !
It is about time we change our bigoted approach towards Islam and respect the fact that religion is personal and cannot be shoved down anyone else’s throat by the implications of such laws. How would she like if the Dutch law force her and her fellow Muslims not to observe Ramzan fast. She should return back to Pakiland and take part in changing the laws to curb "Mullah Power" !

Raheel's "Riyadh Rumours " : Had Enough Of Saudi Arabia ?

American intervention: General (retd) Raheel Sharif mulls to leave Saudi-led Islamic Military Alliance’s command

by Muhammad Irfan | Published on May 28, 2017

ISLAMABAD – Due to American intervention in 41 Islamic countries’ alliance, former army chief general (retd) Raheel Sharif is mulling to leave the Saudi-led Islamic Military Alliance’s command and come back to Pakistan, a private Tv news channel has claimed. Just this past week, the Paki media showed The Muslim NATO Head "sitting" at the table with the The Prince, (son of the King !) who holds "real" power, happily chewing down on the "special salad" flown in from Paris or London, in honour of Trump ! So what happened

.The news channel further reported that general (retd) Raheel Sharif is very unhappy with the American intervention in the Saudi-led Islamic Military Alliance’s affairs, as well as his role is being limited by the Saudi government. Therefore, Raheel Sharif is considering seriously to leave the command of the military alliance and come back to Pakistan, the news channel added. The Saudis just wanted a "experienced Abdul" (ie "servant" in Arabic ) . And Raheel fitted the bill . As a bonus, he was promised $1,000,000+. Now, his imminent return to Pakiland, will surely prove a headache for "The Good Sharif"

. Pakistan’s former army chief General Raheel Sharif remained the centre of attention at US-Arab Islamic summit in Saudi Arabia.

General Raheel Sharif, attended the conference where the heads of states including US President Donald Trump and Prime Minister of Pakistan expressed their views on terrorism and extremism. In a photo being circulated on twitter, General Raheel is seen sitting ( and chewing on his "expensive salad" !) with US President’s son-in-law Jared Kushner Saudi Crown Prince and Defence Minister Muhammad Bin Salman, where they also dined together.
IMO, in spite of the above rumour, and the BIG DENT in his "Echendee" ( he had vowed not to play second fiddle to anyone

) Raheel will tough it out in Saudia. The $1,000,000 PA is too tempting ! But - at least to outside observers - it confirms again and again that all Paki Abduls (ie servants ) from Top to Bottom are for sale to the highest bidder

PTI Pathans "Go Wild" In Peshawar !

PTI workers set on fire another grid station in Peshawar

PESHAWAR – A large number of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) workers protesting against regular power breakdowns and prolonged loadshedding stormed the Sakhi Chasma grid station on Saturday night and ransacked guard room and boundary wall of the grid station. The protesters also forcefully restarted the supply of electricity to their areas. After negotiations between the protesters and officials from the police and PESCO, the demonstrators pulled out of the grid station and went home, Geo TV reported. Whatever happened to the Central Govt earlier promise that "load shedding in the Holy Month of Ramzan will not be tolerated !.

Earlier on Saturday, for the second day in running, PTI workers led by the party’s MPA from Peshawar, Fazal Elahi, surrounded several grid stations in Peshawar and demanded the resumption of electricity to their areas.

Also on Saturday, PTI workers led by several elected representatives ransacked the WAPDA office in Batkhela, Malakand and damaged furniture and other equipment. They were dispersed after the intervention of law enforcement officials. Tempers always run high in "The Holy Month Of Ramzan" !

In a statement, Water and Power Minister Khwaja Asif condemned the PTI workers’ assault. He claimed the grid stations being attacked are the same areas from where over 70% of electricity is stolen through the use of kundas. He added that residents of these areas also do not pay their bills. It is easier for the "boasting minister" to make this and other irresponsible statements against the suffering Aam Abduls , while safely enjoying the air -conditioned comfort of his home, the electricity being generated by imported generators fueled by imported oil

Pakistan Cricketer ( Mr. Sanya Mirza!) Gives Certificate Of Best Bowler To - An Indian Muslim

'Not because he's a Muslim guy'? Pakistani cricketer Shoaib Malik's gaffe while picking favourite Indian bowler

Malik, who is married to star Indian tennis player Sania Mirza, put his foot in his mouth while revealing who he thought was the best Indian bowler.

Shoaib Malik created a controversy of sorts while answering a fan question on Friday in the build up to the Champions Trophy. The Pakistani cricketer was replying to questions on ICC's official Twitter handle when he seemed to put his foot in his mouth while revealing who he thought was the best Indian bowler.

"The best bowler in the Indian team is Mohammed Shami. Not because he's a Muslim guy. I've seen his bowling, played against him also. For me, I find him tough. That's why," said Malik. Paki Muslims have been indoctrinated to think of themselves as "guardians of Indian Muslims". Shoaib is no exception !

Although it'll be safe to say that Malik didn't have any malice in his heart while giving this answer, there wasn't really any need to drag religion into the conversation. Twitter users were miffed with his response, arguing that he didn't need to mention religion to validate his choice. In Pakistan, a person's religion is an important identity. Many Christians and Hindu cricketers have converted to Malsi to further their own career . And they have been "amply rewarded" for this

Malik, who is married to star Indian tennis player Sania Mirza, will be participating in his sixth Champions Trophy - the most by any Pakistani.

And that is why he is trumpeting Ostrich meat as a (healthy) substitute . And that is the reason for import of ostrich without any import duty. One IMPORTANT question left out in all this decision making . What is the "opinion" of the Mullah Brigade vis-a-vis the consumption of ostrich meat in the on-going debate between halal and haram food items. Is a fatwa already in place . Is there a hadith covering this specific situation .

"Paki Abduls Fall in Love With Indian Muslim Girls" .Decided To Over Stay Their Visas. Now Arrested !

Three Pakistani nationals arrested in Bengaluru for living under false identities

BENGALURU: An Indian and three Pakistani nationals were arrested in Bengaluru, for allegedly staying in India under fake identities. They were living in South Bengaluru's Kumaraswamy Layout for the past nine months. Besides their Pakistani passports, the trio was found to be in possession of Indian voter identity and Aadhar cards

The suspects in custody are Kirhon Ghulam Ali, 26, Khasif Shamshuddin, 30 and Samira Abdul Rehman, 25, natives of Karachi, Pakistan. The fourth individual who was apprehended, Muhammad Shihab, is an Indian hailing from Kerala. Shihab is married to Samira and Khasif married to Kirhon. During the interrogation, Shihab told cops he met Samira in Muscat, Oman while he was employed there over a year ago. They fell in love and wanted to marry. However Samira's family in Karachi was opposed the marriage. Is there a "hidden Paki Ayesha" in the wings, as in the Uzma case

Interestingly, Samira's cousin Kirhon was in a relationship with Khasif. It was opposition to their marriage from their respective families that drove the two away from Pakistan, the duo told cops. Sometime last year, they decided to come to India. The couples flew from Muscat to Katmandu in September 2016. They subsequently crossed the Indian border in Bihat by road, and travelled to Patna, before arriving in Bengaluru.

Senior cops were mum on the details of what led to the arrest. "CCB got a tipoff regarding them while investigating another case," police said.Police have charged the three Pakistanis under the Foreigners Act, Passport Act and provisions of the Indian Penal Code for forging official documents. "Central agencies and the Pakistan Embassy have been informed of their arrests. We are verifying the information that the accused have given us," said Praveen Sood, Commissioner of Police. This inter-border "falling in love happenings" need to be nipped in the bud and discouraged in order to avoid repeating the Uzma like headache !

Falijee, that's a five year old article.

Here's a new one by a Paki adakaara

https://images.dawn.com/news/1177682/ac ... in-ramazan

"For some, this is a holy month of prayer, discipline and ablution. For others, it's the month of selling Islam and being a shameless hypocrite."

Actor Ushna Shah has penned down an open letter on Facebook, in which she calls out her fellow members of Pakistani showbiz for cashing in on Ramazan transmissions on Pakistani television while failing to embody the values preached by Islam for the rest of the year.

Without naming any names, Shah writes, "Many people will pretend to be someone they are not for a mere 30 days to cash in on this holy month, I may not keep all my fasts or say all my prayers, but I sure as hell won't disrespect Islam and the millions of people fasting and truly abiding by the faith by pretending to do so just to gain the respect and the money I do not deserve."

The Bashar Momin star says that she has observed these double standards in "the same directors who have hit on me and not given me work because some other actress gave in" and other people who have deliberately tried to hurt her or damage her career.

Writing about her women contemporaries in particular, she says, "I have zero respect for the veil [donning] Virgin Marys who make millions off [Ramazan] transmission by preaching the word of God on Iftar shows and become tutti fruitties a month later."

Pakistan terror groups pose threat to our interests in India, Afghanistan: US spy chiefs

NEW DELHI: The US intelligence community is believed to have informed Congress that Pakistan has failed to stop terror activities operating from its soil, a Pakistan-based newspaper Dawn reported.

"...And because of its failure, these (terror) groups will (continue to) present a sustained threat to American interests in the region, and continue to plan and conduct attacks in India and Afghanistan," the report citing US intelligence said.

"During a Congressional hearing on Afghanistan and the ongoing war against terror elements there, the intelligence chiefs reportedly gave a candid assessment of the situation in war-torn Afghanistan to the Senate Armed Services Committee," the newspaper said.

A transcript, released this weekend, shows that though much of the debate focused on Pakistan, there was a concern expressed that despite increased military efforts to defeat the Taliban, these militants would continue to make gains, especially in the rural areas of Afghanistan.

"Afghan security forces' performance will probably worsen due to a combination of Taliban operations, combat casualties, desertions, poor logistics support and weak leadership," warned National Intelligence Director Dan Coats.

Coats leads a team of more than a dozen spy agencies, including the CIA and FBI.
Illinois Republican Senator Joni Kay Ernst asked the intelligence chiefs to spell out the measures that Washington would like Kabul's neighbours to take to help stabilise the region.

"I think certainly an evaluation of how we work with Pakistan to address the situation of the harbouring of terrorist groups would be essential to a strategy that affects Afghanistan," Coats replied.

"Because that is potentially a very disrupting situation, putting our own troops at risk and undermining the strategy of dealing with the Taliban and local groups that are trying to undermine the (Afghan) government. So it's a very clear link that I think would have to be addressed in conjunction with whatever's done in Afghanistan."

"Besides more troops, which I anticipate might be part of the plan that we see, we need to implement a different strategy on the ground in Afghanistan?" Senator Ernst asked Defence Intelligence director Lt General Vincent Stewart.

"We've got to get a couple of things. One, very clear that Afghanistan's security and stability is in the interest of all of the parties in the region and does not pose a risk to Pakistan,"Stewart replied.

"We've got to convince Pakistan that if they're harbouring any of the Haqqani network members that it is not in their interest to continue to host the Haqqani network."

Stewart also urged the Trump administration to work with Afghanistan's neighbours to go after the 20 terrorist organisations that were still active in the region.

"They undermine not just Afghanistan, not just Pakistan, but all of the region," he added.
Stewart also suggested "pushing" Pakistan to do more against the Haqqani network and urged US policymakers to "separate the Taliban from the Pashtun", because Pakistan wanted a Pashtun-dominated Afghanistan.

"So we've got to get the conversation going again with Pakistan about their role in not harbouring any of these terrorists, helping to stabilise Afghanistan and, I think, maybe, we'll have some progress," he said.

Stewart said he believed Pakistan still had some influence in bringing Taliban to the table. "So we've got to get them to think about reconciliation, that the status quo is not in their best interest," he said.

The intelligence chiefs also flagged the issue of Pakistan's concern over India's influence in Afghanistan, and cautioned that the latter could look to China to offset this perceived imbalance in regional geo-politics and end its so-called global isolation.

"They view all of the challenges through the lens of an Indian threat to the state of Pakistan. So they hold in reserve terrorist organisations... so that -- if Afghanistan leans towards India, they will no longer be supportive of an idea of a stable and secure Afghanistan that could undermine Pakistan interests," he said

40% decline in US visas for Pakistanis; 28% increase for Indians: Report

ISLAMABAD: Pakistan has had a significant 40 per cent drop in the number of American visas granted to its nationals under the new Trump administration despite not being on the list of the US President's travel ban countries.

Interestingly, the number of non-immigrant US visas to Indians has increased by 28 per cent in March and April this year as compared to the monthly average of the previous year, according to the newly-released monthly official data.

Non-immigrant visas granted to Pakistanis are down by 40 per cent in March and April this year compared to the 2016 monthly average, a Pakistani media report said quoting data released by the US State Department.

Pakistanis were issued 3,925 non-immigrant visas in April and 3,973 visas in March 2017 under the Trump administration.

The Obama administration last year issued a total of 78,637 non-immigrant visas to Pakistanis with a monthly average of 6,553, which was 40 per cent higher than the current average.

Before March this year, the State Department did not release monthly breakdowns of visas and only annual figures were available.

The report compared the March and April 2017 figures with monthly averages for 2016. Even in 2015, monthly average remained 6,179 as a total of 74,150 Pakistanis had been granted visas.

A spokesperson of the State Department told the the News International: "Visa demand is cyclical, not uniform throughout the year and affected by various factors at the local and international level. Visa issuance numbers tend to increase during peak travel seasons, such as during the summer and the winter holidays, though there may be different trends at the country, nationality, or visa-category level".

The data showed that Indian nationals received 87,049 visas in April and 97,925 visas in March this year. Last year, people from India received 72,082 non-immigrant visas each month on average with an annual total of 864,987 visas. I O W Average of Indians getting Visas is nearly the same as the Average ANNUAL Visa issued to the Clapistanis

Pakistan is not the only Muslim-majority country experiencing decline in non-immigrant US visas. A similar analysis of 50 Muslim majority countries reveals that number of visas issued to their nationals has also declined by 20 per cent in April as compared to their monthly country average last year, the report said.

The six countries targeted by President Donald Trump's revised travel ban — Iran, Syria, Sudan, Somalia, Libya and Yemen — experienced a 55 per cent decline in non-immigrant visas compared with last year's monthly average.

Experts believe that drop in visas may indicate that more visa applicants are now subject to excessive scrutiny.

In January, Trump signed an executive order temporarily barring people from seven Muslim-majority countries — Iraq, Syria, Sudan, Iran, Somalia, Libya, and Yemen.

In March, he signed the revised travel ban excluding Iraq from the list. The order was challenged in a court and a judge had halted the travel ban.

^^^ The US sharply cutting back issue of non-immigrant visas to citizens of the Mohammadden Terrorism Fomenting Islamic Republic of Pakistan even as they very generously increase issue of non-immigrant visas to citizens of our country must certainly be a major blow to the H&D aka Honour and Dignity of the Islamic Republic.

Let us wait and see if the Mohammadden Terrorism Fomenting Islamic Republic of Pakistan will call this a cordinated US/Israel/India plot by Nasaras/Yahudis/Hanoods via CIA/Mossad/RAW to malign Pakistan and Mohammaddenism.

Same story but from a source within the Islamic Republic, The News:

40pc decline in US visas for Pakistanis

Yaa
They have been blaming RAA & NDS for all problems these days.
Now they will again start saying CIA, RAA, MOSSAD, NDS.

I think just before it is time to them to receive their annual dole out from the US, they take the CIA & Mossad off the list, and then gradually restart over a few months or so.

I kind of feel bad for this paki-origin doc who was only trying to give his best in times of extreme stress. It is clearly hard to clearly distinguish between islamofacists and euro-fascists. This racial incident could have been with an Indian-origin doc as well.

PIA officials arrested for abetting human trafficking

PIA IT system 'malfunction' brings operations to a standstill

IMO, I do not think that this is the proverbial " last nail in the coffin" for this discredited Paki career ( sometimes used as a "personal taxi" by Ganja Sharif !). It will continue to provided " rich raw material" for the 24/7 news media ( and BRF readers !), until it completely shuts down or undergoes a 400% makeover

PIA officials arrested for abetting human trafficking

Two Pakistan International Airlines (PIA) officials have been arrested and formally charged by the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) for their involvement in the illegal trafficking of three Afghan women, who were caught using fake boarding passes to board a UK-bound flight from Islamabad's Benazir Bhutto International Airport.

FIA sources further revealed that three British passports were used to issue the fake boarding passes.

Pakistan is a key route for global human trafficking networks.

Chinese footprint on the Pakistani budget [*]

[/url]

[*] Euphemism for Chinese takeover of Pakistan ( as per Chini plan !)

The Nawaz Sharif government’s last budget is more or less an extension of the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor initiative.

“Accumulation of foreign debt in the midst of ever falling exports is but a risky strategy and the way the current account has widened this year to $8.3bn from $2.5bn last year shows that even rising Chinese investment and lending does not guarantee external sector stability.”

Pakistaniyat Of (My Laard ) Khawar Quraishi Comes Out !

Jadhav will not be released nor acquitted: Khawar Quraishi

[quote]ISLAMABAD: Khawar Qureshi, the lawyer representing Pakistan at the International Court of Justice (ICJ) in Indian spy Kulbushan Jadhav case, said that ICJ will neither acquit the spy nor release him.While speaking to the journalists he said, “Jadhav case is a very clear case. Kulbushan Jadhav can never be released or acquitted.”Khawar Qureshi also advised the media men to “behave responsibly and give Pakistani officials the respect they deserve.”. Just a few days ago, he was painted by the "Deep State" as a RAA agent, because his London based firm had once asked him to represent India. So what happened?. Is he back in favour with the powers to be in Isloo and hence came out with this "aggressive remarks" about Jadhav ; the Paki media has been baying for his head for " not winning this case". Is this his way for "lecturing" the Paki media to go easy on him , as he can still do something about this.

PS: So eager was he to "show his Pakistanayat", that he defended his huge fees in a TV forum ; Pakistanis were shocked to learn that the person representing India charged a token one rupee for his services
