US suspends military aid to Pakistan. Military says it doesn't need it.

This aid includes about $300 million to reimburse Pakistan for some of the costs of deploying more than 100,000 soldiers along the Afghan border to combat terrorism, as well as hundreds of millions of dollars in training assistance and military hardware, according to congressional, Pentagon and other administration officials who were granted anonymity to discuss the delicate matter.

Then its not aid, it is America's war bill! We should recover this money out of Afghanistan then, hold all their inbound goods, till they pay up.
 
The real question is where are these aid money spend?

Is it for military or is it filling pockets of politicians.???

Do the budgets refer and show the records of spending of this money?

Does a comptroller and auditor general work in Pakistan??
 
The sooner the US stops all kind of aid, the more benifit & betterment for Pakistan.

Also Pakistan must impose tax on NATO convoy's because Pakistan loose alot due to these convoys. Impose tax for using ports, using roads(per KM), heavy tolls etc & should be per truck.

Pakistan should continue with this idea for the common people also. Roads, highways, ports, income everything should be taxed. Then there will be no need of Aid.

This money is only filling pockets of corrupt politicians!!!

We don't need this aid!!!
 
Hard time ahead for Pakistan. Currency may devalue to 150 rs per 1 dollar in 2 yrs.

Good think is from that point things will only get better. Eventually it stand as strong nation.

You can not, under WTO rules ..you can not impose tax on goods for a landlocked neighboring country.

People here questioning, why doesnot US money reaches Pakistani public because 70% of all the money(which US gives you) goes to your armed forces...rest 30% left gets distibuted amongst various infrastructure projects.

No problem, There are countries which have 1 US$ = 11000. BTW, there are rumors of UST is going to default. What will happen if US$ falls??? We don't have too much $ reserves, but India have :cheesy:

Well can't say because this cheap animals PPP could do anything. But if their heart is clean than it won't happen as it didn't happened in 90's when Pakistan was hit by heavy international sanctions & received 0 penny from outside world.

And Pakistan can impose heavy tax on supplies & convoys pass through Pakistan this will give more money than aid in respectable manners.
 
It is not the problem of Aid..Its the problem created by politicians. The US cannot distribute money directly to the people. Its the job of Pak administration.IMO

Pak army and people both don't want this money!!!

We are given 20 billion dollars and we lost 68 billion dollars due to this war!!!

This is complete loss, 35000 civilians and 5000 soldiers died and still U.S is saying DO MORE!!!

Its time for Pakistan to say NO MORE!!!

Wrong!

Pak Army does want this money.

In fact, most of tis aid goes to Pak army itself.

I don't understand why you guys blame the politicians when it's the Pak Army that gobbles up most of the aid.

OK , NO MORE it is then
 
This is good for Pakistan to enhance and fix our tax collection system. US military equipment cannot be relied on due to interruptions in sustained delivery of parts by the US over the past 5 decades. Having sanction prone equipment is a No-No even to start with.
