FAST FACTS:
🔻160 million kids are in child labour instead of school.
🔻More than 1 in 5 young adults are missing out on education and job training.
↪️Every child deserves a classroom, not a workplace.

Did any global leader discuss the environmental impact of +30,000 tons of explosives used to commit a genocide in Palestine during #Cop28?
Especially the role of the private sector & stakeholders in facilitating this genocide?

@GeorgeMonbiot this didn't start on the 7th of October, it started decades ago when the European antisemitism and guilt led to the displacement of indigenous Palestinians from their land. Hamas is the byproduct of israeli war crimes and Palestinian genocide.
Why the "Abraham Accord" was fundamentally flawed: it kept the Palestinians locked in the dog house. Yet Palestinians became antifragile: years of oppression kept strengthening them.
If usa can fund that cancerous zionist state, if Ukraine can get arms from Europe, UK and USA, it's time that Muslim countries to actively start arming the Palestinian struggle.
Freedom "by any means necessary"

In 1973 King Faisal brought the world to a standstill by stopping oil exports, the Arab core of OPEC needs to step up and put an oil embargo on every country that supports the genocidal zionist state.

Let's break these down and see how many of the Top 25 companies rely heavily on the state for the largesse, it's inefficiency, or shareholding, thereby benefiting heavily from gov intervention:
1. FFC. Literally gets subsidized gas. Lol. Rent seeker
2. Engro Corp. Every single business except for Foods, has some element of state support, whether subsidized gas, or guaranteed IRR. Rent seeker
3. Systems. Works in a competitive market. Massive respect.
4. EFERT. Get subsidized gas. Rent seeker.
5. EPQL. Guaranteed IRR. Rent seeker.
6. EPCL. They do good work and have carved out a niche.
7. Security Paper. Lol. They literally just print currency notes for the SBP. Hahahah
8. HBL. Almost 70%+ of income would be from gov assets. Heavily dependent on GoP
9. POL. Actually suffers from bad gov policy in exploration.
10. BAFL. Almost 70%+ of income would be from gov assets. Heavily dependent on GoP.
11. HMB. Almost 70%+ of income would be from gov assets. Heavily dependent on GoP.
12. Millat Tractor. No idea
13. MPCL. Shareholding is literally the government, and some quasi- gov entities
14. CHCC. Works in an oligopoly, which government is too scared to disrupt
15. UBL. Almost 70%+ of income would be from gov assets. Heavily dependent on GoP.
16. Archroma. Does good work in a competitive market.
17. IIL. Literally exists because of heavy duties on steel imports, won't be competitive without these duties
18. MCB. Almost 70%+ of income would be from gov assets. Heavily dependent on GoP.
19. Lotte. They did good work, but Koreans got so fed up of this place, they sold it off
20. Indus Motors. Lmao. They exist because of bad gov policies that can be bought with LV bags
21. Jubilee Life. Fleeces people hriugh shady ass bancassursnce schemes
22. Pakistan Cables. No idea.
23. HUBCO. Guaranteed IRR in all projects. Capacity payments for the win.
24. CPPL. Operate in a competitive market
25. PSO. Literally gov owned with quarter of a trillion stuck receivables.
So out of 25, there are maybe 5 which somewhat operate in a competitive environment and do not depend heavily on government. These aren't top 25 companies, these can be called top 20 gov favorites.
The Palestinians are resisting the last Western settler colonial occupation in Asia. The occupation will eventually end like all others. In 2023, it isn’t a difficult or ‘both sides’ situation. Collective shame for regional governments that cajole & court an apartheid regime.
