I think land restribution - remove all the military mafia from all spheres of economic domain. Let them do what they are paid to do not to make business from.

Why will they harass?

 

[maithil]

His economic plans make sense. And that's why these will never be allowed to be implemented in true spirit. Any permanent solution will erode prominence of one organization.

With the military loosing the sympathy and love from the general public, this is now relatively not a far fetched idea.

First you loose the respect in hearts and minds of people, then the unbridled power and pelf.

Before that very strong civilian govt. and with stronger institutions are needed, idea is not to weaken the military, but they need to abide by the constitution and supremacy of law of land. IK has said many times a strong civilian govt. and a strong military complements each another.

The 10 point economic plan was long due by IK. Political rhetoric had to backed by solid proposals.

But over time, the plan needs to be laid out in a greater detail.

The process of improving Pakistan's economy will be a long one. Suffice to say, there needs to be a lot of difficult steps starting with reigning the establishment and reducing the defence budget by a considerable amount.

The damage Bajwa and PDM has done to Pakistan, will atleast take a decade to fix.

Just the announcement of a free and fair elections in KPK and Punjab will help in reducing the despondency, despair and there would be positive sentiments overall in the country.

Current uncertainty is more dangerous than any terror acts and law and order situation.

And just the hope and aspiration in the IK's PTI govt. can make the country turn around the corner, the initiatives and the plans are a value addition later.

I dont think anyone can solve the issues, he needs for first see the lay of the land. And what limits his powers to execute. Unless he's able to address the terrain,any maps he makes are useless. And quite frankly, its a hopeless situation. The nation is destined to be a banana republic with no bananas to export.

 

[S.Y.A]

end sardari/wadera/zameendari system. forcefully if need be. redistribute land and advertise and market this reform (shamelessly like showbaaz) especially to the poor sindhis who are suppressed by waderas and peers, so that they can break out of the spell of bhutto.

this should be followed by weakening of provincial govts and strengthening of local govts and bodies.

No one, because no one has the Abrams tanks, the JF 17's. Civilians are useless in terms of overpowering a well funded fighting force lol.

This makes sense. I see remittances increasing to previous levels due to change and crackdown on illegal channels. However, Imran's trust in OSP is misplaced. Overseas Indians did not immediately invest back into their country until the environment had changed significantly and there was already tremendous FDI.

Pakistan would literally need to be a different country before OSP decide to invest big. PTI should focus on:
1. widening tax net by digitizing undocumented economy
2. Restrict real estate and divert local investment into more productive sectors. This will help increase manufacturing, agriculture, exports.
3. Help startups by providing loans, management advice, etc.
4. Create new courts solely for business, enforcement of contracts, resolving business, patent, property disputes. Regular courts should be banned from hearing such cases.
5. Restart city development projects like RUDA, Bundal Island, etc. But only allow foreign companies to invest & build - to prevent the usual locals from wasting money on real estate like they always do and to ensure quality standards remain high. If modern looking cities are built in Pakistan with skylines, you will not only bring OSP investment, but their residence as well.

I think it's stupid how almost every other country in Asia has better city skylines than Pakistan. Karachi is just an endless zone of illegal housing as far as eye can see. Meanwhile, no one knows why Lahore even needs a metro. Housing societies should be restricted for the next decade, allowing only high-rises. Make sure all landowners are documented & brought into tax net. Limit their holdings.

The issue here is that plan has already been tried before. The results were a bit mixed. OSP did not bring investment to Pakistan, at least not as much as hoped. We did see some promise in remittances growth and the Pakistan bonds. But it's not like gold was falling out of the sky. Expatriates will not invest in a system where the PM Imran Khan himself cannot stop courts from releasing Sharif, Zardari. Rule of law was a joke before with kangaroo courts operating at midnight, stopping investigations into businessmen, etc. Now it's even worse with constitution torn apart.

Real estate is literally the problem with the country. It has corrupted the army, made feudal lords politically powerful, destroyed agricultural land, prevented urban planning, ruined the cities, and redirects investment from productive sectors like manufacturing.

Laws need to be passed to limit & tax people from holding too much real estate. For example, if you are a businessman you can invest wealth into real estate at 40% tax rate of value or you can invest into building factory at little to no tax. You need to force investment into more productive sectors using taxation.

every country from China to USA to India has a real estate sector and a speculative one
