Almost 100,000 vehicles are in use of bureaucracy ..... the biggest curse... Billions of dollars govt spends on their foreign visits and other luxury items.What is your opinion about it? Can the Pakistan government afford this?

You are on par with India with respect to petrol ️.View attachment 850355
Miftah the commissioned eunuch to destroy Pakistan just raised petrol prices by 30 and electricity tariffs by 7.
May this MFer and his abba's burn in fucking hell.
In Sri Lanka they did for same reason and look where they ended up. Once you hook them with subsidy it is unlikely you can undo it with out a fall-out.Because the lowering of fuel prices has always been used by an incumbent government to showcase it's economic prowess, while an increase in fuel prices is always used by the opposition to criticize economic policies of the government.
IK did do one somewhat sensible thing, reduced the taxes on fuel so that the govt pockets less money. There was a school of thought at that time, and one which is scientifically backed, that you will lose more from other sources by increasing fuel prices (in the form of inflation and reduced industrial output) than you will by giving out a certain subsidy for the fuel.
This subsidy amount has to be calculated by looking at data to ascertain the exact amount at which you lose more from other sources than from the subsidy.
Exactly! What could have been a pin prick in their right times now comes as a macheteWhy is any of this a surprise?
Can the country afford subsidies to keep these prices artificially low? No way!
This was coming for a long time. Each government played its own games knowing that we had no money to pay for softening the blow. IMF clearly told both the PTI and the PML governments that given the global increase in the price of oil, Pakistan had no fiscal cushion to give. These blows were just kicked down the line.
