After Metro Bus, Lahore to get Metro Train: Punjab CM

[WishLivePak]

You already had long debate on this with me, now again came with same west thing...

So in the East, are public transport not subsidized?

If you start charging people the actual amount of money, they would not take the transit. It is common sense. They'd rather use the private transport service, which are cheaper since they did not need special roads, safety or any other service offered by public transport.

Lovey Bhai my point was that with the amount of mismanagement of funds going on....any mega project that gives the perception that Lahore is being developed ought to be put on hold. It would've been better if Noora Jr. had begged the Chinese to invest in small-scale hydro-electric dams all over Punjab so that at the very least nearby towns and villages could receive 1 MW of electricity from them.....enough to sustain them.

Having a mega project in Lahore while there isn't anything of the sort going on elsewhere in the province will continue to reinforce the perception that Punjab is Lahore and Lahore is Punjab - In that case no one is going to bother with whether it were the Chinese or someone else who was funding the project. They'd simply ask if Noora Jr. can bring Chinese/Turkish etc investment to Lahore...he could've done the same with other cities of Punjab; no one would be bothered with understanding that the investors have a mind of their own and they decide when and where they'd invest their money.

Perception is all I'm talking about !

You need to realize that it is Lahore that also provides jobs to many people who come from rural areas. It is Lahore that faces smogs (which means flight cancellations), traffic jams, pollution and whatnot. We needed this train back in the 90s, it is long overdue now.

Kindly read other threads about developments in other parts of Punjab (They could have built a new airport/heavily renovate Lahore one, but instead they worked on Sialkot). They are expanding metro bus projects as well. Of course Shahbaz is doing this to win elections (finishing just before elections). A metro train is going to wow majority of Lahore residents and so they will give PML plenty of seats.

India too has many problems and surely they would rather use the money to build smaller projects rather than mega project like trains. But cities need such transit system. You may say "but look, the cost! corruption!" Well, there will still be high combined costs for dams and corruption.

There lives some 6 million people in Lahore, so it not only needs one metro train line, but many more. If it were to me, I'd build this train for elections (who doesn't want to win) and then after being re-elected allocate more funds towards other major, but smaller, cities. Like Sialkot etc.

Failed state was when the previous government was leaving. That was my whole point genius. Sometimes, you should read the post carefully. The current government came in and turned the tides. In fact, it is a LOT more than turning the tides, its turning the entire country's position in the world and future of 200 million people.

Because of these guys, you are at a place today that you had the ability to say NO to KSA on troop deployment and call UAE out saying their comments were "insulting" to the nation. Guess what? The KSA's king sent his minister to kiss Pakistan and apologize for the comments. THIS right here is where these guys have brought Pakistan to where it was headed three years ago. NO leader in Pakistan has ever been able to say no to KSA. Whether they eventually do it or not, is a matter of civilian - military policy. But the fact is, this one step, put Pakistan WAY above where it was. Tells you how confident the government is and where they want Pakistan to go!

.
No matter how long n Valid arguments u give to these Goons ....they will remain blunt n immune to any logic .....One of such goon stated this during a conversation " illiterate kpk person is far better n more patriot than S**ty PHds of PU cuz he voted for IK" those r the kind of argument u will get..always ...
if thats not pity thn i dont wot is ..!!!

What about the money they steal from the rest by not paying their bills? When KPK cant even spend what is allocated to them through NFC, the question of increased funds come way after.

Nope.

It's a public forum. You may not like my response, but others will learn from it. Im offering the other side.

But yeah since you won't debate further, I will leave the readers to decide what is right.

First imran was like oooooo lets make train and metro bus project is failure and no one should make it.

Then he said they'll get buses in KPK.

Now no sign of buses either. I guess they'll just buy like 5 buses and say "we delivered!"

Please visit a village near you. Spend a few hours. Talk to people. Will help a lot.

Brother,

No country ever able to build the complete infra structure in every rural Area,
I just visited dubai, and when i visited few areas out side dubai, i was surprised to saw the difference between the living standards in urban and rural areas.
I visited Jaddah, Madina and Makkah, and i saw local people bagging on the streets.
My friend living in Houston USA , told me that hundreds of people living on roads, (Remember Houston is Developed city of USA)

My point is no country in the world, where u will not find poor class,or labour class ,etc
