Pakistan And IMF At Loggerheads Over CPEC Data : Global : Business Times

[VCheng]

only 70000 seventy thousand tax payers out of 20 crore is very low .

That is a falsehood being intentionally propagated.

There is a low number of direct income tax payers, yes, but a vast majority of the population pays a high rate of indirect taxes, and those too in a perversely regressive manner.

 

[Sliver]

IMF can not force any country to divulge details of its dealings with other countries .

if IMF has to issue a bailout, it would need to know the extent of exposure that Pakistan has towards external Debt that includes, but not limited to, debt form China towards CPEC. it is not a regulation for Pakistan to share such information with any third party - including IMF - but before a loan/bailout package is given out, it is a good practice the check the health of the economy and its risk with debt exposures.

those eligible to pay direct taxes are not paying , poor people are paying indirect taxes on their behalf .

So why does the government not change the taxation system, bringing all income under the net, specially agricultural income?

If that were the case it would had already been done. But staging Hollywood type action scenes with the support of corrupt governments and actually doing it when their is a new government and an honest one in place is one hell of an another ball game.

CPEC carries the secrets to OBOR!!!! The US folks are dead apprehensive about what's going on behind the doors!!!! Either they'll take OBOR, or OBOR will take them....

The change of guards, as a part of unchangeable Divine Rules, is occurring before our very own eyes!!! And, the center is carrying the burden of change!!! Pak is one such major fulcrum.....

the CIA found out where Bin Laden was hiding and sent him where he belonged

They're all inside the minds!!!! And, these are crafty folks....

Please do not underestimate the almost infinite patience of the Pakistani people. Hope is good, hope is great, while we all wait. And wait. And wait.

IK's honesty has never been in doubt. His ability to actually achieve even a fraction of what he has promised to the nation, however, remains to be seen.
