SBP RELEASES DATA ON PAKISTAN’S EXTERNAL, DOMESTIC DEBTS

[Aesterix]

Thier are Pashtun tribes in Punjab should we name Punjab "border" just to appease those people and not name the province after majority of it's inhabitants

The hindko being "repressed" I don't buy it as I have seen hindko people thriving in every diaspora cammunity,.who are educated - unlike a lot of genuinely oppressed people...

tbf it's better if a native KP guy answer this @ziaulislam

But I personally call bs and rona dhona as they seemed the farthest off from what it means.to be oppressed

Because hindko people struggle and help themselves.
There are few to no job opportunities in Hazara . All top brass in Police is Pushtoon .

Ethnic supremacy of Pushtoons over Hindko is a ground reality, but oppressed? I never said that.

Hazara had to campaign for own university for decades and was only created in 2001 by General Musharraf.
Before that all boys and girls wanting to study engineering or many other subjects had to go to Peshawar.

Instead of CPEC, imagine we asked China to consolidate all this debt (and our internal debts) in return for (1) interest-frozen annual payments and (2) automatically winning every infrastructure and power, telecom, etc contract for the next 50 years. We'll even let China tell us where we need infrastructure and how much. @SQ8 @JamD

Consolidated debt programs to pay off your credit cards generally aren’t good in the long run.

The terms would saddle Pakistan with sub-standard equipment because a guaranteed win puts no onus on supplier to deliver the best bid.
