Gas consumers to face up to 200% price hike

Those looted money is never going to come back. At least anything meaningful. We tried that, the Chinese have tried and failed at stopping their corrupt money from leaving China. FFS they couldn't even get the corrupt money back to China from Hong Kong or Macau.

But you can take actions against them in Pakistan. Or go the Chinese way of arresting families back home. Which I don't think is possible. But it works in some cases.

In India petroleum averages 1.02$/ltr.
In Pakistan petroleum averages 0.64$/ltr.

Are gulf providing Pakistan cheap oil? I don't think so.

Nope. They dont. Its Pakistan's tax payers money. Simple.

Can you believe they are paying PKR 285 for cylinder? In India people will celebrate on the streets if such an scenario comes :lol:

Imran khan is failing badly in recovering money from corrupt politicians.
Either bring looted money back or hang corrupt politicans why burdening awaam by increase tax day by day this will make public go against him.
Imran khan do not hace capability to rule govt he has to understand that all burden of corruot people he cannot transfer on public he has only one cure for all issues

Yeah, Natural gas is cheaper compared to LPG cylinders. There are few houses in my place with LNG, I don't know the price but it's cheaper than Rs600 LPG.

Sorry sir but awaam is equally responsible in this economic mess. We have 220 million awaam yet we import even daal from outside. Why no Pakistani companies manufacturing made in Pakistan stuff? Why awaam is buying imported stuff? Stop buying it and see how PKR value goes up. No need to blame govt, due to rupee depreciation the operating and other costs for gas and petrol companies too have gone up. The root cause is enormous imbalance of imports vs exports.

Why dont govt just banned the import business then?? Why asking awam not to buy but keep allowing import products to come in Pakistan??

Ask govt banned those who business who import these things. This will force local to manufacture and buy made in Pakistan?

285 pnr is way too cheap if you dont produce gas locally.

Indian ordinary people pay 650 inr i.e around 1000 pnr...

In UK i pay 60 pounds for gas per month..i.e 5400 inr which is considered as cheapest souce of energy in uk

They are not bringing back money to pakistan.looks like they will recover money from taxes and price hikes.if things will not change within a year,I will not vote for pti in next election.basically no middle class person will vote for pti.
Bringing the money back is pipedream of 3rd world countries. It can me Modi or Imran or anyone else .. they are lying to people. first, thing most of the money is no stored as hard currency those are invested in properties and other non-movable assets. Most of the corruption money comebacks to the country and get invested by various means. Even to get single $ government needs to prove that it is earned via criminal means (most of our 3rd work countries don't have rules and regulation to tackle modern-day corruption). Even with rule, it will take years or decade to prove if there is the intention. After it, one needs government-level agreement between countries which may take years to get signed.
Countries like the USA, Canada and UK, and few European countries have thriving real estate market due to this money. They won't let it go so easily. so leave it... I am tired of hiring it.
That money is water under a bridge ... move on and build your respective countries by electing good candidates, be vocal on any possible platform against bad governance. Don't worship personality but principles. to the main point of price increase.. IMF deal is right but at the wrong time. The previous government has artificially controlled inflation... it will behave like spring and will jump before setting down .. go through pain once or go in phases but it has to go.

I thought Pakistan is a democracy? So how can govt dictate people what to do and what not? The businesses are importing because there is demand by people. It is people of Pakistan who have to use brain and stop buying these imported stuff.

It is simple mathematics, if you buying items worth approx 50 billion paying about 5 billion in your loan repayments and selling your items worth approx 20 billion and your father/son send you another 22 billion are you not at loss?

In Pakistan people want everything for free or blame govt. This is destructive mentality.

A sales tax is a regressive tax. The rich get away with paying much less than the poor.

The retailers cheat and keep the sales tax and dont pay into the coffers.b

Pay you taxes and stop being corrupt.
