Oh please! Just take a gander around endless threads on PDF touting the great progress made during PMIK's tenure, just like those touting endless progress made before his time. We will see soon the glorious progress being made now, as we will see endless threads touting the great progress yet to be made by the next setup brought into power.
But he has recorded a video (that will never been shown) and he is ready for a Great March for True Freedom (that will never happen).
I have been in my family's business that deals with real estate, financial markets, insurance industry both inside and outside the US, mainly in Pakistan, for the last decade and a half, and to date, Imran Khan's was the best by far. So now you might think, what did he do differently? First, he created trust, and with him, people had no fear, unlike with Mr. 10% and the Nawaz family; we all know the Punjab Bank fiasco and how investors got back nothing but pennies and fled. What Bajwa did showed new money handlers that the establishment can change things in the blink of an eye; this uncertainty doesn't allow a business environment to flourish among the newer generation of business people.
One other factor you have to take into consideration is the old money handlers. Our parents and uncles are dying; they've been burnt in this country and have no desire to invest. The new money the current generation that's taking over has seen the effects of Pakistan's mismanagement and corruption and does not want anything to do with this country and wouldn't even think of putting anything down to invest for the long term. You'll still see doctors fresh off the boat building houses in posh areas in Islamabad and Pindi, but that's about it; it's not enough to drive growth and innovation in this country. I mean, even Pakistan's Aviation City is being drained of talent because of incompetence; several executives and manufacturers of drones are moving to the State of Indiana due to the state of affairs in that country.
While there will be idiots to praise the situation and talk about the glorious economic progress Shahbaz and Bilawal are making, the actual money handlers will not be impressed. It'll be putting lipstick on a pig, and it will remain a pig. So let them play the Scottish bagpipe and sing praise without a crowd to cheer them on.
