Infrastructure Development in Pakistan

[U-571]

no mega project has been announced for the city of Karachi since 10 years

only churan of one little line of metrobus which is bound to fail badly due to lack of planning unban transport system of karachi

while china is building brand new metro train system for Lahore, Karachi is only getting its age old KCR system revived

KCR is not owned by city government, or sindh government, but the federal govt and its officially a railway land, why federal govt doesnt develop KCR despite laying all blames of ills of karachi on sindh govt is beyond anyone

no master plan for karachi since 10 years as well has been announced

K-4 water supply project which is a joint responsibility of sindh and federal govt remains unfinished since ten years as well, S-3 sewage project also not started since 10 years despite being proposed and this is the reason why all waste of karachi is dumped on clifton beach.

in a city of 30 million how a metrobus will cater to a giant city population needs is beyond anyone's understanding

metrobuses can carry limited number of people and also have big operating costs and their fares are much expensive than train transport

i live in Kuala lumpur and its main public transport are the trains and mono rails, they only make metrobus on select locations which dont have a high number of commuters, the amount of people a train carries cannot be carried by a metrobus. Why is metrobus prefered as main means of public transport in Karachi is beyond logic.

ohh i forgot, Karachi only has population size of Lahore so that might be it.

the only development karachi is getting is the real estate business of defence housing, behriya housing and fizaiya housing schemes.

how such gigantic housing schemes are viable when karachi has failing transport, education, water, electricity system to begin with is beyond anyone

Why is Pakistan using road signs with Russian language in region of FATA?

The Central Asian nations still use or have in recent times used the Cyrillic alphabet. The Cyrillic addition will have been made to assist C. Asian truck drivers. Kazakhstan is currently in the process of switching over to the Latin alphabet http://www.aljazeera.com/news/2017/10/kazakhstan-switch-cyrillic-latin-alphabet-171028013156380.html

Project comes on line with start of second LNG terminal

Prime Minister Shahid Khaqan Abbasi inspects Pakistan GasPort floating storage regasification unit in Karachi on Monday.

KARACHI: Prime Minister Shahid Khaqan Abbasi inaugurated on Monday the second liquefied natural gas (LNG) terminal at Port Qasim, which was built by Pakistan GasPort Limited with an investment of $500 million to pump gas into three LNG-based power plants in energy-starved Punjab.

He emphasised that electricity shortages had been largely overcome with the import of LNG – the cheapest energy source at present, adding the government was currently working on several power projects.

Pakistan is importing 600 million cubic feet of LNG per day (mmcfd) through its first terminal at Port Qasim which has been operating at 100% capacity over the past two years.

The second terminal will handle another 600 mmcfd, taking total imports to 1.2 billion cubic feet per day (bcfd).

The premier congratulated Pakistan GasPort Chairman Iqbal Z Ahmed on achieving the milestone and said he still had two more to cross.

Terming the LNG terminal a success story, he said the government’s work was not to engage in business, instead it would facilitate the private sector in setting up all new terminals and provide a regulatory framework. He saw a huge potential for investment in the LNG sector because the country had a big market for natural gas.

Abbasi revealed that 1 bcfd of LNG would be required to meet the needs of industries, compressed natural gas (CNG) filling stations, captive power plants of industrial units and power producers.

He pointed out that Pakistan had now become a fertiliser exporter due to gas imports and LNG was the cheapest source of energy at present despite media criticism.

Pakistan is expected to be importing 30 million tons of LNG per year in the next three years as more terminals are coming up. Speaking on the occasion, Ahmed said Pakistan GasPort had completed the terminal despite encountering several challenges.

The company has planned to set up another LNG terminal with a joint investment of $500 million which is expected to start running before the end of next year.

He revealed that they had also planned to set up a liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) import terminal with an investment of $50 million to meet consumer demand.

There had been ups and downs in LPG prices and the establishment of the terminal would help stablise gas rates in the country, he said, while pointing out that the government was also working on setting up LPG air-mix plants.

“The LPG terminal will also help to meet gas demand in remote areas of the country,” he said.

Can you create a separate thread for LNG??? Where we can discuss spot purchase, terminals and shipment tenders??
