What's new

traders / businesses going on strike . IMF screwing pakistan

Pakistanis are kinda lakeer ke fakeer, they have this cut copy paste mentality -- Why follow others, make your own system, make your own recipe.

I agree Pakistan must forge its own destiny and create its own system suited to the environment of our people. However, there is no harm in emulating the success story of others. The best example in the last 50 years was China. Socialism with Chinese characteristics takes its influence from Lee Kuan Yew because he advised Deng Xengping on what makes good governance. The Muslim's themselves use to take things from other civilizations. Reinventing the wheel is a waste of time, why not use a blueprint that has served other nations.

It's beautiful. People blaming everything on taxes. Oh the reason this government is failing is because people don't pay taxes. Because the handsome one is an angel and even if he's surrounded by criminals, he's not a criminal.

https://dunyanews.tv/en/Pakistan/41...allegedly-owned-PTI-leader-Firdous-Ashiq-Awan

But people didn't pay taxes in previous governments too. What was the problem then? Oh corruption.

Gotta love the hypocrisy. The handsome one can't do anything wrong.

The amount of loans this government took and the amount of money it sucked from poor, it's frightening how that has disappeared and PTI hasn't done anything for the country in a year. Where did all that money go?

Yes it can be recovered provided faith is put in ALLAH swt' and one follows the guidelines given in Quran & Sunnah ----- Pakistan needs kinda revolution, whereas Imran Khan is a celebrity imposed on us, bad decision by the establishment (probably they had no other choice) --- a revolutionary man brings the masses on his side, Mr Imran Khan is doing the opposite.

You want to recover the looted money, confiscate the properties of top politicians, bureaucrats, media owners, lawyers, judges etc., (corrupt ones) ---- Going after just sharif & zardari will give you peanuts.

To bring the economy on track,
declare Riba' haram -- direct all financial institutions to adjust their balance sheets+ honor international commitments.

Frame a simplified taxation system (in urdu) with reasonable tax rates.---- Taxes must be on savings for salaried class and small businesses -- zero taxes on necessities like electricity, gas (up to specific limit), fruits, vegetables, groceries etc., ---- Tax luxuries heavily.

We are mainly agriculture country, put main focus on agriculture .--- just middle east is billions of dollars food market ---- Revive agri related textile industry.

Make corruption a capital offence.

Make the infrastructure conducive for local production -- provide all the necessary tools, electricity+gas+ reasonable taxes+ training etc., --- direct the banks to provide loans on profit/loss sharing basis, no more free lunch for banks.

Nonsense. Riasat e Medina is only for doing politics on and getting people to vote for you. It's not for actually following its principles.

Don't know what you been smoking.

Yes we are already ripening the fruits of your copy/ paste recipe, your recipe has brought inflation, unemployment, concentration of wealth in elitists hands, debt trap.
Remind me the situation status quo ante the British arrival? Were we drowning in milk and running a ummate or being screwed over by Sikh Raj? That was before copy paste?

And do you live in UK?

Gotta love the hypocrisy. The handsome one can't do anything wrong.
You sound like @Retired Troll but of course that suggestion is preposterous. And all those loans have been used to pay off the loan payments due from previous governments.

And who better to catch tax dodgers then Mr Zaid, the guy who used to advice them?

You left the guidelines , you got screwed, this was very simple.

Why you asking where I live and what made you think that I live in UK?

The western economic system is flawed. However, we can't implement an Islamic financial system unless we have a strong economic, political and social block within the Muslim states. Pakistan would be ruined if we decided to act as a lone wolf. Furthermore, the current Islamic Banking system isn't mature enough, granted its growing at a much better rate and is more stable than conventional banking. Investors need products, liquidity, and solutions to help them invest in emerging markets and that, unfortunately, isn't provided by the Islamic banking system. In'sha'allah there will come a time. Allah is the best of planners.

Spouting the 'no interest' elixir that will transform the economy is rage among Brit-Paks. Only after having got fat off the UK capitalist system.
Na, neither I live in UK nor I intend to live in the West, I am quite satisfied living in Pakistan, Alhamdulillah.

Good post.---- I know it's very tough, but at this stage only intention is more than enough.

And gov will get money from thin air to do all that. Tax evaders are criminals all over civilised world, its about time Pakistan joined their ranks.
I know the reality of the civilised world you talking, this civilised world is responsible for the killing of millions of Muslims and other innocent people in the last 100 years. (don't give me example of this civilised world)

We will have to device our own system, in our system (Islamic economics), there's no free ride for the govt as well ---- This system Taxes people as the need arises, if there's no need than no taxes ---- This system also doesn't tax the necessities (current system deliberately taxes necessities).

No need for thin air, for a starter the Govt. must provide facilities from it's own pockets by cutting down on non development expenditures. -- I know, you know and whole Pakistan knows, there's massive massive corruption in govt depts, corruption has kinda become a sacred duty in these depts.

Initiate training courses, information programs etc., for the people --Build trust within the community (the govt is doing the opposite), make them realize Why we need taxes and where tax payers money will be spent.

Note: Islamic State can not tax people for debt servicing as Riba' is Haram.--- The ruling elite is responsible for this, confiscate their properties and pay the interest from it.

what is that.sales tax on flour.what is justification of this?
in bahrain when everything has gone up but gov didnot let bread price to go up.they subsidised wheat flour.so poor have less effect of prices hike.

دنیا بھر میں کہیں بھی آٹے پر سیلز ٹیکس عائد نہیں ہے


فلور ملز مالکان نے بھی سیلز ٹیکس کے نفاذ کو جواز بنا کر آٹے کی قیمتوں میں اضافہ کرنے کا فیصلہ کرلیا۔

ایکسپریس کے مطابق پاکستان فلور ملز ایسوسی ایشن نے جمعے کو سینٹرل ایگزیکٹو کمیٹی کا ہنگامی اجلاس لاہور میں طلب کرلیا گیا ہے جس میں آٹے پر سیلز ٹیکس کے نفاذ سے فلور ملوں کی سرگرمیوں پر مرتب ہونے والے اثرات کا جائزہ اور حکومت سے مطالبات کے مسودے پر اہم فیصلے کیے جائیں گے۔

ذرائع نے ایکسپریس کو بتایا کہ جمعرات کو آٹے کی قیمتوں میں اضافہ کے حوالے سے فلور ملز ایسوسی ایشن سندھ زون اور سینٹرل زون کا اجلاس بھی منعقد ہوا۔ پاکستان فلور ملز ایسوسی ایشن کے نمائندے چوہدری انصر جاوید نے ایکسپریس کو بتایا کہ 17 فیصد سیلز ٹیکس کے نفاذ کے بعد 50 کلو گرام فائن آٹے کے تھیلے کی قیمت 360 روپے کے اضافے سے 2460 روپے، 50 کلو گرام سادہ آٹے کے تھیلے کی قیمت میں 325 روپے کے اضافے کے ساتھ 2225 روپے ہوجائے گی، اسی طرح سے 17 فیصد سیلز ٹیکس کے نفاذ کے نتیجے میں فائن آٹے کی فی کلو گرام قیمت 7 روپے 20 پیسے جبکہ سادہ آٹے کی فی کلوگرام قیمت 6 روپے 50 پیسے بڑھ جائے گی۔

چوہدری انصر جاوید نے بتایا کہ سیلز ٹیکس عائد ہونے سے چوکر کی 50 کلوگرام کی قیمت میں بھی 400 روپے اضافہ ہو جائے گا جس سے 50 کلو گرام چوکر کی قیمت 950 روپے سے بڑھ کر 1350 روپے ہوجائے گی، دنیا بھر میں کہیں بھی آٹے پر سیلز ٹیکس عائد نہیں ہے اور حکومت کی جانب سے آٹے پر 17 فیصد سیلز ٹیکس عائد کیا گیا ہے جس سے پاکستان کا عام آدمی بالخصوص غریب طبقہ بری طرح متاثر ہوگا، قیمتوں میں متوقع اضافے کی صورت میں نہ صرف عام آدمی متاثر ہوگا بلکہ فلور ملوں اور آٹے کے بیوپاریوں کی فروخت
کے حجم میں بھی نمایاں کمی ہوجائے گی۔

I was about to post this news, Thanks for posting.

Actually, in Islamic Republic of Pakistan, flour has become an item of luxury, the govt is asking people to quit eating roti and eat cakes & pastries from gourmet/cakes & bakes etc.,

This is a shameless govt which has decided to squeeze even the blood of the poors.

Soon you will see someone posting clarification from Shabbar Zaidi ---- This is becoming a joke, the govt taxes items , after seeing the pressure, they back off --- like we heard of taxes on bakar mandi, taxes on cars per seat, taxes on flour -
 
.
shabbar zaidi, a known tax evader and thief, is now failing imran khan

In laws always have special privileges.

IF IK can recover at least some of the promised US$200bn, loans by KSA/UAE will be written off, or a new aid pkg will come.
He's a clue less.... can you tell me what's his foreign policy towards regional states? and regional conflicts and almost daily events!
 
.
Let's see how long can Govt sustain ---- This slave govt is hostage to imf ---- it's not about not paying taxes, it's about:
1) fair tax rates (not the ones dictated by imf)
2) simplified taxation system (seems like tax laws are written directly under the supervision of shaitans)
3) Haram Khors free FBR

Legendary Khan want people to pay taxes without fixing the system first ------
And what are those "fair tax rates" in your opinion?
Since when tax payers can dictate the rate of tax?
If FBR wants them to document NIC numbers on invoices, how is that rule "written by shaitan"?
