Honestly Pakistan does not even need tariffs and quotas for this (these can be abused later and create inefficiencies and dependencies). They can just make industrial zones and export zones etc for electronics assembly (and make them tax and excise free). Pakistan labour is cheaper than Chinese labour by enough amount now.....even considering what is available and trained sufficiently in Pakistan's labour pool. With enough tax holiday, the capacity is generated automatically to propel it past that holiday (and earnings can be reinvested in more training and moving up the chain as feasible by the free market dynamics)...because the ROI for the investor is largely guaranteed and shielded...but the assets are more inelastically entrenched (i.e a long term benefit capture). Its the basic tiger economy model.
This all will upset the vested interests and karachi-cabal we talked about earlier though. Pakistan needs to focus its govt/bureaucracy on a few focused things like rule of law, standards etc (things that are equally accessible to every citizen)...rather than partitioning and micro managing every economic related thing it can (because then it just becomes the tool of the vested interests that line their pockets). As few govt levers in the market is the best policy for both jobs and growth.
