Government isn't doing a good or a bad job here. The government is trying to solve MUCH bigger issues right now, like terrorism, operations across Pakistan to capture terrorists, ensuring safety plans and all across the country, supporting critical projects to produce electricity and all and dealing with fools like IK (this is such a bad time for political bullshiit).

So when Pakistan has electricity, stability and all, then the less priroity items take place. Japan has been selling and assembling bikes and cars for decades, its also the 3rd or the 4th largest economy. Do you want to piss them off by telling them they've been selling crap? When as a country, Pakistan knows it can use every dollar in investments she can get? So a better way is, to build the infrastructure, finish CPEC, provide 24*7 electricity to businesses and reduce the electric outage issue as promised by 2018, either all the way or even 80%. That would then bring in Volvo and WV from Germany as they have already shown interest to sell and assemble cars in Pakistan. By doing this, your brought in billions of investments to manufacture cars inside Pakistan and pushed the envelop for the Suzuki's and Honda's that they now have to compete. Guess what? The Japanese, if they want to sell their cars, will have to start selling real cars, not this junk being sold in Pakistan for the same price you pay in the US. But minus all the qualities and standards!!

When you can bring in more investment and diplomatically achieve your goals, why do the government has to go to war with others on everything? It doesn't make sense. Not everything needs to be super intense, specially when its being done for the past 30-40 years. Change comes slowly and a system ensures it comes for sure. Let the system do its job. The days of selling crappy vehicles to Pakistanis due to Japanese monopoly are numbered. The second VW or Volvole or others sign even an MOU (by 2018), trust me, you'd already be seeing the nice Japanese cars driving around with newer tech. Its inevitable.

sorry if it offended you actually i read on previous pages when some of pakistani members were saying tht govt isnt doing anything in this sector(i have tagged them in my rev post)

ok ur some points make sense but sill cost of these old models is still pretty high(i'm keeping in mind currency gap too)

No, not at all offended. Sorry if I came across like that. Unfortunately, there are some "conspiracy theory" creators who are our dear members on here. So I wanted to respond in detail before one of them got to your post and ran a conspiracy theory model on Bikes and Car manufacturing in Pakistan, and how it was the current governments fault even though it's a mess coming from the past 70 years of lack of focus on everything.

Yup, broken system allows others to take advantage of you where they can. Both Toyota and Suzuki are doing that very well in Pakistan. Specially Suzuki. They are making a shiit load of money without even putting decent electronics and other amenities in cars. The designs are obsolete as well. You'd hope they'd introduce something nicer but why do that if you are one of the monopoly powers? You know there is a set number of cars to go between you and the other two guys. And there isn't much competition so why show new stuff and add more to the cost, thus losing a little profit when you can continue to make profit but don't have increase the cost a dime. This is where the idea of competition comes in.

Either in the next two years, or when any MOU's is signed between Volvo and WV and the government of Pakistan (or someone else for that matter), the Japanese, to get a stronger foothold and loyal customer base, will start to offer many additional features and designs. And then it'll get into a real open market situation where consumer gets to pick what they want and have options. The monopoly will be broken and the Japanese will have to show higher quality to retain their customer base.

I don't know, but 5 years after a model is discontinued in India, it still continues to sell in Pakistan
When a new model is launched by a Global manufacturer , it takes 2 years to enter India, and by the time it enters Pakistan, its replacement is already launched in home market
