Pakistan's national interests should be our only concern. Xinjiang is next door to Pakistan. Thus, if we want CPEC to be successful then the entire region needs to be stable. This is called common sense, but people on this forum aren't pragmatic enough to understand such a simple concept...

Under no circumstances should the Pakistani military join this war. We must focus on our own economy instead of wasting resources on a pointless war which has no strategic value toward Pakistan. The situation would be different if the Houthis were invading Saudi Arabia. But obviously, such an...

Your assessment is fair.

I agree:) There are many armchair politicians on PDF.

I agree brother. Mao was a very controversial figure and even in China people do criticize some of his actions but they don't tend to broadcast it. But like with all historical people of power there were good and bad elements to there rule. Mao as a revolutionary fighter was inspirational, but...

I guess my opinion was taken on by the Pakistani Govt and those who were criticizing me for supporting China seem irrelevant. Will they now claim the Pakistani Govt is worshiping the Chinese? I don't support PTI, however, pragmatic policies which are in the national interests of Pakistan will...

The problem with Chairman Mao was his belief of following the Stalin economic model of collectivization. When the CPC first came to power they did land reform which benefited the masses. This policy was excellent, as for the first time in Chinese history the poor were allowed to grow there own...

Pakistani people have one major problem. If you have a different opinion they will slander you. Such slander under sharia law will get you lashes if not proven.

That doesn't work in the real world. People will always look for an alternative rather than paying for something expensive. This is called common sense. In this case, the airline industry would be affected. But you didn't explain what the alternative arrangements are? There is no alternative and...

What alternative arrangements can Indian airlines make? You do know the airline industry works on tight margins. Furthermore, you can't maneuver to an optimal position if the current state of the industry is facing a financial crisis.

I agree. The intention should always be there. This will be a long term process, we have to remain patient. But it's nice to know you believe in the Islamic financial system. In today's era, people would ridicule you for proposing such ideas.

The western economic system is flawed. However, we can't implement an Islamic financial system unless we have a strong economic, political and social block within the Muslim states. Pakistan would be ruined if we decided to act as a lone wolf. Furthermore, the current Islamic Banking system...

Great news:) I hope Pakistani businessman learn to diversify. The Govt's job is to introduce good policy, but the business community must take that initiative and increase our exports leading to larger monetary gain for themselves. Pakistan needs to develop its mineral resources, we have a...

I agree Pakistan must forge its own destiny and create its own system suited to the environment of our people. However, there is no harm in emulating the success story of others. The best example in the last 50 years was China. Socialism with Chinese characteristics takes its influence from Lee...

When did I mention someone was forced to take a train. Who is responsible for public transport safety? The Govt or the average joe on the street? Obviously, its the Govt and this incident falls on the shoulder of PTI. They have the power and if the railway system is too dangerous, then close the...

If the current railway system is too dangerous to use, then stop using it until the system is replaced. Public safety trumps money in every single case.

We shouldn't forget the crimes of those cockroaches. However, they aren't in charge of the railway, and somebody must pay for negligence. Someone's, father, mother, sister, brother or cousin must have died today, and what justice will their family receive? This will be another forgotten story in...

Where is Pakistan in comparison to China on accountability? This mentality explains why Pakistan has never progressed. Those at fault should receive the death penalty. I don't know why you need to bring Ganja Sharif and Zardari into the equation. They also need to be hanged for their crimes, but...

When I was in China back in 2011, I had the pleasure of taking the Beijing-Shanghai HSR when it opened for the first time. However, the previous week before my departure, the train service to Guangdong to another city collided with another train. The public demanded accountability. Those at...
