Talk of the town: Caretaker setup and Financial Emergency in progress

I dont think so. Unless IKs popularity goes down, they will not announce elections.

However, Shabbar Sahab has a point. A technocratic set up approved by US and IMF might be installed.
The whole purpose of such a setup would be to restore the image of the army generals and their US masters, nothing else.. US always wants Pak to be on a drip and generals willingly oblige for their own self interests..
 
.
Caretaker setup is to find creative ways to delay elections.

Delay elections why? Imran Khan will win simple or even 2/3 majority, so no can do.

So, caretaker setup for a good 2-3 years, get the duffers reputation back, they quietly go about their corrupt ways.

Meanwhile make deals with the 2 corrupt families to bring them in while the establishment goes to BAU mode of pulverizing and interfering in everything except their job description.

Imran Khan, will be disqualified, exiled, assassinated based on threat perception.

Only wild card here in this equation, is the public.
 
.
Seems in the next few weeks technocratic govt is coming. The economy is beyond PDM control. Shabber Zaidi is giving signals something is cooking behind the scene.


Something is seriously wrong, Caretaker cannot negotiate with IMF because of mandate. On the other hand IMF has given 3 weeks for reforms that takes months if not years.

The economy is beyond repair. Even the IMF is now unwilling to provide the 13th/14th installment to an imported government that has zero credibility. When Imran Khan was in power the economy also took hits, but other indicators were much more stable. Just have a look at all the indicators now. Not a single indicator is stable at this moment. It is pure panic and people are waiting for only one news. When is Pakistan defaulting.
 
. .
After the imported imbecile govt. ruined the country economy and political process, another imported technocrat govt. of 2-2.5 years are in the offing, planned by none other than the Establishment, coerced by US??.

So the Establishment is still dilly-dallying and not giving any importance to the will of the people and not listening to the voices coming.

Considering the conditions the IMF is asking of the PDM government, it will only cost them politically.

They would be smart to allow early elections to not take the blame for the hard choices that have to be made.

So who will make the hard choices that need to be made without paying for it politically?

The main point-of-sale of the technocrat govt. will be they can negotiate with the IMF on new tariff or taxes on petrol, diesel, electricity, gas, others and implement it as there is no electorate or political affinity with them to loose or gain.

And deal with IMF for a new tranche of loan and roll over of older loans. As all the financial dealing with other lenders like ADB, WB, other fin. institutes, China, Saudia are pegged against an approval by the IMF and going into the IMF program.

Comes with caveat. In the longer run this would be another disaster.

What sort of imbeciles do we have sitting at GHQ?

Ullu kay pathay.

So this will make the economy better? So an investor will think keh wow, aglay 2 saal kay liay hakoomat agayi hai, things will be better? What will happen after those 2 years?

I wonder if they teach this stuff during a war course.

Alright, and then what will happen when a new government comes?

Then what?

And the more important question is, to phir N league ko kis nay kaha tha hakoomat main anay ko? Kyun fauj unhain hakoomat main layi thi? Kis kuttay na in sab ko kata tha?

Political capital hi bachana tha to phir bahir bethe rehte aur baad main atay, cases bachanay kay liay itni mehnat na kartay.

The irony, had they let IK finish his term it's likely he would not have been re elected. The mistake the establishment has made is a strategic blunder, much like Putin in Ukraine where his ego doesnt let him back down but boggs him into a protracted war which has significantly weakened his mother Russia.
 
.
Wrapping shit (read martial law) in with a ton of wrapping paper and glitter tape, and throwing on a Gucci scent still doesn't change the fact that it's shit (read martial law).

Ever since Musharraf the estab has gone towards covert ways of string pulling, and this is yet another attempt at that. N league is welcoming this with open arms, let's see how PTI responds.

As the poster above said, had the estab let IK complete the term, economy wouldn't have taken such a nosedive, and IK would have been finished.

There are truly, absolutely imbeciles sitting at GHQ and Establishment, they have proven it time and again.

Haven't learnt anything from the mess created by their imported PDM govt. of morons.
China, Saudia, UAE, Russia too would come to the help if the elections are held and a new govt. with the will of the people, with their mandate is formed.

But the Estab. has other ideas.
