What's new

Pakistanis own assets worth $150bn in UAE, SC told, estimated foreign accounts over $350bn

.
Rupee would be ok..acceptable
150 Billion Rupee would be about 1.2 Billion USD
This figure may be believable


I was likely expecting figures around 200-450 Million Dollar

 
. . .
If I'm not wrong the top 3 foreign countries (as of 2016) to hold properties in Dubai are;

1. Pakistan
2. England
3. India

The reason why England is at the second spot is because of British Pakistani Nationals that have invested heavily in the city of Dubai. I don't know if the 150 Billion $ figure is from Pakistan alone or British Pakistanis combined but there's very little Supreme Court could do to investigate the properties owned by British Pakistanis.

Why is this hard to believe? There are over a million Pakistanis living in the UAE - some of whom are incredibly rich! Their businesses, properties and cash probably equals 10s of billions easily.

Then we have corruption money (politicians, civil servants, military) + Pakistani businessmen stashing their cash there.

$150 billion is very plausible.

To put it bluntly

If the state of Pakistan Claims the lands owned by these people. Pakistan would be the size of a major Empire and the strongest country in the region.

But........

Imagine the possibilities if even 10% of this 150b was paid in tax.
 
.
The entire economic model of Dubai is based off black money laundered, financial smuggling, and slave labour.

If you expect justice from Dubai then you are greatly mistaken.


Here is Dubai for you...

Not able to believe the story Pakistanis don't own a Oil field overseas to be able to generate 150 Billion dollars , it is a massive amount of cash

Saudia's biggest rich guy prince Talal at his prime had only 4-5 Billion net worth

Interesting points made by Barister Shahzad Akbar: how to trace and bring back looted wealth of Pakistan:

 
.
Pakistanis own this much property in UAE. But much of the money has been earned and invested here..

I know quite a few people who bought properties in UAE in the last ten years.. but they earned here.. and paid off the home loans from their salaries.. They are still Pakistani passport holders, so yes, I think they aren't segregated in this list.

But imagine if out of 150 Billion Dollars, half of it belongs of Pakistani citizens who earned the money in Pakistan.. and laundered it to UAE to buy properties.. wow..

"As for the wall, it belonged to two youths, orphans, in the Town; there was, beneath it, a buried treasure, to which they were entitled: their father had been a righteous man: So thy Lord desired that they should attain their age of full strength and get out their treasure - a mercy (and favour) from thy Lord. I did it not of my own accord. Such is the interpretation of (those things) over which thou wast unable to hold patience." -Kuran-i Kerim (18:82)

Looks like this laundered money has turned into a Hazine stored for the Pak folks as described in Sura El-Kahf....
