Nawaz wants energy, not aid, from China

Pakistan's energy problem, is it due to a lack of power plants and power infrastructure, or is it due to an inability to get the resources to power these plants?


It's all about money -- the power plants can produce the energy but they want to be paid -- in Pakistan, the govt came up with the idea odf what it calls "circular debt" - It is become fashion, it is good and just to live beyond your means - so not only do huge chunks of the population, especially politicians and bureaucrats, pay no or little taxes, they do not pay bills like electricity bills -- the power plants have to pay for their oil and gas imports, but they must get paid as well -- So the govt came up with the idea of "circular debt" basically it's "kicking the can down the lane", the govt ministries and the state enterprises instead of paying these power producers, circulate the debt amongst each other, that is to say they carry it on their books, over and over and over again - the net result is that the power producers don't get paid what they are owed - so they do not produce what they can, and everyday the demand grows more and more --

So since Pakistan refuse to follow proper economics and grow the economy, they instead grow the private fortunes of politicians, bureaucrats and their friends and family.

That's unfortunate. We can build power plants and power infrastructure very quickly, but there is not much we can do about lack of management or unpaid bills within Pakistan's energy sector.

Actually if you know China doesnot give Aid, it has always assisted Pakistan.

Pakistan doesn't need aid , trade and investment is what needed to develop the economy,the more aid you get the poorer the country will become just look at the west huge aid to Africa it didtnt help Africa does it, and when china went into Africa with trade and investment now they are talking Africa is going to be the next rising economy star

Pakistan also dont need any aid it needs assistance and technical help in combating the energy crises. China is helping Pakistan in more civil nuclear power, on top of all these things first the corrupt management and corruption in the power companies should be eliminated.
