ISLAMABAD -

On this occasion, Economist Kashif Mustafa said that it is in the interest of Pakistan and India to make trade dialogues positive and conclusive.

Because 2.5 billion/yr trade between these 2 is a joke it should be lot bigger number
It will rise as soon as Pakistan phases out the negative list.
It has already risen just on account of change from a positive list to a negative list.
 
it will b much more after the indian election is done ... anti pakistanism was on high during indian and bangaldeshi election ....
 
And how exactly will this become bigger with the prevailing attitude on both sides?

At one time you couldn't come near french and Germans border without few 1000 holes in your body and now you can dance on the border and just look like nut job without the fear of every getting shot.

For every nut job on both side who wants to fight the other side, i bet you there are 1000s who want peace and prosperity and rather trade flowers and goods every day then bullets.

Every billion dollars investment creates 4500 good paying and 100s other support jobs.Because of the trade when jobs are created most people will rather work then pick up a gun.
 
Real Numbers are multiple times this . But Since it is done via Dubai etc official figures does not show . That way Pakistan/India is loosing tax revenue and consumers are paying extra amount to cover the costs . I would not be surprised if the "Real" trade amount comes to 6-10 billion .
