It is like sucking blood from stones. The tax survey that was carried out in 2000-2001 has resulted in closure of a big chunk of home oriented cottage industry. Most of them have now shut down and import containers etc from China to market cheap goods. Is this not tragic.

General Sales Tax is suppossed to be another name for VAT (value added tax). It is basically meant to monitor the cycling process of the economy and the profits of all buyers and sellers. CBR has converted it into another form of duty. Refunds are extremely cumbersome and nearly 25%of it is paid as bribes to the Sales Tax Staff.

Despite making unusaual allies, the goverment ignored the fact that Riaz Malik was one rare progressive CBR official and a good Chairman of CBR. If anything, he deserved extention in the name of NATIONAL INTEREST.He has been allowed to fade away.

Ishrat Hussain and Dr Ashfaq have much to do with the stability in balance of payments. Being Finance Minister Shaukat gets the credit. he is the dancing horse.

To improve the Human Resourse index, the State can do little. The private sector has to play its role, which it is not.

Dear Lord Dirtier and Maula Bux,
This is neither an NGO nor an attempt to grab xpats wallets. Yes is it a suggestion to the nobility of Pakistanis. It is a theory which needs to be implemented. Worldover, the private sector has been the leading engine of development. We for one offer ourselves to act as facilitaters and mangers. We have no desire to move in posh cross countery vehicles in the name of humanity.

Sadia, yea we have some projects completed.
Some years back, we completed the first desalination plant of Pakistan in Choolistan. Through our efforts, we identified 26 sites where desalination was absolutely important. Money over 200,000$ on surveys and research was purely my own. There was no funding.
We run a shift of evening schools in the remote areas of Punjab.
We are striving to establish a high standard, effordable university.
We have provided three water treatment and filteration plants at Lahore and Rawalpindi.
We sposored a motor cycle factory which will be upgraded to manafacture cars and trucks in five years.
Plans are at an advanced stage to manage both high cost posh housing for the rich that will subsidise low cost housing for the poor.
I hope this will do for the time being.

Hey There Ijaz,

Do you have any plans to make your idea come true?
Just wondering as even local NGOs in Pakistan are not loyal for real development of Pakistan.

Saa
