Regional trade: Kabul wants Delhi to join Pak-Afghan trade pact

[OrionHunter]

Pakistan is not interested in free trade with India.

As though we're interested!!

What's your trade with China, your so called 'all weather' friend? A measly $14 billion!

What's the Sino-Indian trade worth? A whopping $70 billion, $100 billion by next year and $500 billion by 2020-21!

And what's India - Pak trade worth? A laughable less than $3 billion?

As you can see, we couldn't care less about Pakistan. You're just a little drop in the economic ocean. You guys are not even on our radar! But Pakistan needs to care about opening trade with India if it wants to move ahead on the economic front.

Please make a special appointment to the nearest available hospital, so that a doctor can diagnosis whether your moronic brain is schizophrenic. Clearly you were interested in such a hypothetical scenario because you advocated the idea of trade increasing to $50 billion and how it would benefit both Pakistan and India. Now Chai Wala go and serve some tea and make it quick.

What's your trade with China, your so called 'all weather' friend? A measly $14 billion!

Actually trade between China and Pakistan is expected to cross $15 billion this year and will rise significantly in the near future now that Pakistan has become politically stabilized as the threat of TTP has dwindled, so please go and buy some glasses from specsavers and stop embarrassing your self cockroach.

What's the Sino-Indian trade worth? A whopping $70 billion, $100 billion by next year and $500 billion by 2020-21!

Personally I don't see how this relates to Pakistan, however its common sense that two large neighbors with similar demographics and land mass would have a tremendous amount of trade being exchanged.

And what's India - Pak trade worth? A laughable less than $3 billion?

Pakistani's in general don't want to trade with India, so your amusement and pathetic attempt of becoming the clown jester is extremely lame. Now go and dance like a transvestite and play with your little plastic dolls.

Seems like a good idea .
@SrNair , your thoughts ?

Of course it is a good idea, it may even lead to Peace, Stability and Economic Growth in the Region.

But the question is: will it eventually come through? Witness the move to give MFN Status to India, ithat has'nt happened for so long..... I'm not optimistic on this one too.

What a joke ! Afghanistan Pakistan Transit Trade Agreement (APTTA) is a bilateral trade agreement that USA helped to negotiate. If Afghanistan does not like this bilateral trade agreement then they can terminate it unilateral. Afghanistan will lose the cheapest trade corridor to rest of the world through Karachi.

What about Chah Bahar?
Cheaper and more secure..... plus the Iranians now have to use it ......... and send some signals to some people.

We are discussing ATTA a bilateral trade agreement between Pakistan and Afghanistan. The cheapest way for Afghanistan to export and import is still through Pakistan. India can use Chah Bahar for trade with Afghanistan.

Qayamat post hai!!

 

[K M Cariappa]

I will not object as long as we can have Bajaj Pulsar and Duke here in Pakistan.

And of course the Royal Enfield Thunderbird 500.

Oh Mama!

OFF topic:
What sort of Bikes are available in Pakistan(NOT TROLLING)... I recently got to know that Maruti 800 and Alto also ply on Pakistani roads albeit as a product of Suzuki, so is their any same bike too that plies on road of both the countries ..??

 

[Dalit]

The Indians are free to approach Pakistan about it. Trade will help bridge gaps and lower tensions, so why not?

True, but India will have to resolve all outstanding conflicts including Kashmir. Something they are reluctant to do. Pak isn't crazy to present their ace on a silver platter...

I can eat a whole bowl of alphabet soup and shit out a much better argument than that Chai Wala, so please take a deep breath before your high blood pressure rises and try to use your limited imaginative brain cells to respond back to me in a much better way. I find you amusing because you should be sent to the zoo, where scientists should study your DNA in analyzing why a human being resembles and thinks like a baboon. Furthermore, you insipid little ball of sphincters puss write full English sentences because you look and sound like a typical jibroni.

 

[Shamain]

Wow Rasengan got some immense verbal fire power. Fear that indians.

 

[OrionHunter]

Rubbish
bull shit

The Pakistan-Afghanistan trade pact should be independent


If Afghanistan wants trade with india then go for it but DO NOT involve Pakistan


Pakistan should facilitate afghan trade to india but we should block anything indian from passing through Pakistan

The indians can either air lift to Afghanistan or go through Iran

You'll make a fantastic finance minister.

 

[Levina]

By the way, it has been calculated that if trade opens up between India and Pakistan, it would be to the tune of more than $50 billion by 2020, that's four times more trade than what Pakistan has with China at present!

It would be a win-win situation for both countries, especially Pakistan. But the million dollar question is: Would the Pak Army allow it?

Not likely ever! And that's Pakistan's loss.

Going by the recent turn of events, Pakistan is sure running out of friends (and options). Soon the money that was being pumped into Pak (by GCC countries) would come to a halt and then Pakistan (be it their govt or army) would be forced to reconsider their relationship with India. A fractious relationship would not work in Pak's favor.

Hey im not saying it doesn't make financial sense

The reality is the entire sub continent should be one big power block, economically integrated, militarily integrated and politically united atleast on some basics


I even concede that we are basically the same people sharing immense cultural and historic bonds and racially of the same back ground


BUT


You occupied Kashmir, and now were gonna have to get nasty

 

[Menace2Society]

Afghans can push Indians on Kashmir. When India make genuine and friendly steps to address the issue and make peace with Pakistan then this trade can happen.

Otherwise not interested.

These countries around Pakistan always think of me me me me and ignore Pakistanis. I say go f**k yourselves.
