The #US cut tariffs on #Pakistani goods to 19%, below than the rates for peer economies —boosting Pakistan’s trade edge. But without fixing high input costs and #energy prices, experts say #export gains will remain limited.

#PSX staged historical rally, spiked 6%(2,500 points), at a point on Monday after IMF lifeline of $3bn was made available.

The govt. has once again chosen a wrong path. Raising the so called investment in such projects will add up pressure on foreign currency outflows (profit repatriation) in the long-run. This is not the investment, but the debt trap!

Countryside ports to be sold to UAE?
Saudi team scouring airports
Is everything to be sold off to raise dollars for today?
What will happen tomoro when nothing to sell is left?
The elite will flee abroad
The people will be left at the brutal mercy of foreign commercial masters.
