Seems to me to be Mr Ansar Abassi's own views especially with lines like these:
"He was lucky to have been promoted while being in the World Bank, and when returned to Islamabad, was appointed as special secretary finance."

To meet his daughter in London.
How can he be an absconder when no one is looking for him? He is still giving interviews and is still arguing good things about Pakistan.
You mean he transferred all his money to foreign accounts?
Proof?
No one is raising a finger on SA. Only some PML-Q members.
Q and SA are different entities
There is no indication he personally tried to sell it to Arif Habib. There is no indication that it was a lesser bid either.
A move towards privatization was ongoing long before Steel mills came into the picture.
2)Why did he export so much wheat that we didnt have any thing to eat.
Which wheat shortage are you talking about? Pakistan had a wheat shortage again in Jan, of a much higher degree long when SA was out of the picture.
3)Stock exchange crash
Correct me if I'm wrong but the crash happened when Geo TV (an Anti-Government media) announced that Musharraf has been couped out during the Emergency.
So Geo TV caused the crash, not SA.
4)Sugar crisis
Again senators of various parties were involved in this. What was the role of SA in this?
5)Atta crisis.
Atta/wheat you mentioned this twice.
For getting the country out of debt.
New Recruit

i think you should read newspaperNo one is raising a finger on SA. Only some PML-Q members.

Can someone explain what exactly did musharaff/aziz do that tripled the pakisan economy? I read parts of "In the line of fire" but there was no clue in there in fact mushy said he did not know much about economics at all and left everything to Shaukat Aziz(who gave up a chance for presidency of citibank to serve his country). But no details were given.
If someone has a magic wand that they wave and suddenly the economy triples in 8 years well why don't they provide a few details as to how it was done? Also why did mushy never start Kalabagh...being a dictator he could have easily forced it. Now pakistan has brownouts all the time.
I think you should quote newspapers.i think you should read newspaper
Hey man, what r u talking about. Pakistan has now over $44bn foreign debt. And what he done to get rid off the debt of Pakistan. Now give me proof.
In 1999 Pakistans total debt as percentage of GDP was the highest in South Asia 99.3 percent of its GDP and 629 percent of its revenue receipts, compared to Sri Lanka (91.1% & 528.3% respectively in 1998) and India (47.2% & 384.9% respectively in 1998). Internal Debt of Pakistan in 1999 was 45.6 per cent of GDP and 289.1 per cent of its revenue receipts, as compared to Sri Lanka (45.7% & 264.8% respectively in 1998) and India (44.0% & 358.4% respectively in 1998).
Most recent figures in 2007 indicate that Pakistan's total debt stands at 56% of GDP, significantly lower than the 99% of GDP in 1999

Absconder suggests that someone has actually made an effort to find him or he has refused to show up in court for any of his proceedings.an absconder doesn't mean that it can't give interview or comments. But it is easy to comment because he is sitting outside the country
He might also be looking for a job, you know.Dawn Economic Review(feb11-18), Letter from London
in the last, Taillpiece: What is former Pakistan Prime minister Shaukat Aziz doing lunching with Brithish Billionaire and TV inverstment admisor James caan at one of the swankiest London restaurants?
He and caan were spotted at the restaurant on monday by a daily telegraph columnist. Shaukat was not available for comment. But the columnist in his gossipy write-up on wednesday hinted that the two were perhaps negotiating a 100million Euros investment fund.
Wherever it is, show me where a crime has been committed in all this?He is making 100million euros deal and you now think that his money is in our (Pakistan) Banks.
Alright, show me how? Maybe some signed minutes of meetings that were attended by the two?yeh, he is personally involved
So? Dude after privatization Pakistani organizations have only improved.but become very fast in his govt.
If you are not talking about the past then why is there a wheat shortage right now? Show me there has been a record production of wheat.we are not talking of Past. After production of Record wheat what will you think.
Why are you deviating from the issue?If geo is anti-Govt than All the News channels are anti govt, that's why all the channels remained close and after there was two Ary and geo and then Geo left, after hitting 1bn+ Rs loss the Geo is opened. And further this "Afwah" was not from the Outside (from channels) this was inside Drama.
Can you show me where the government has stopped the NAB investigation?Can you tell me why the govt. stopped the Interrogation of The NAB. Has you any answer
Everything is pointless.I think you lose this point, remaining point is four.
