• Apr14-2018--one truck of fresh milk is used to make 14 trucks of milk with half the fat by the countries milk processors...the livestock deptt told this to the national assembly...he also said that agriculture has no future in punjab and there are 200 breeds of sheep around
  
• Apr14-2018--the electricity bill tax funded Neelum Jhelum power project has been inaugurated...about 12-14 billions annually were deducted from electricity bills for over a decade...
  
• Apr14-2018--Nawaz Sharif and Marium Nawaz are untruthful difficult to handle slimeballs to say it in trumptweet language...Nawaz Sharif lied to parliament and lied to the SC...that got him disqualified...The SC in what can only be called a complete judgement without any way out has judged that disqualifications under 62-1f are for life... earlier remarks of the CJ were that such things cannot be permanent as the convicted can reform himself...however that view has been thrown out of the window...At the moment only Nawaz Sharif and everyone else has been disqualified for life... there are 17 other cases under 621f of disqualification for false degrees and that of Jehangir Tareen...Jehangir Tareen has a similar case and will probably also be disqualified for life...This has come about many think because of the PM meeting with the CJ...it is suggested that the CJ might have mentioned the mockery of the SC prevalent in the PMLn and that the PMln is pretty crazy in making Nawaz Sharif a petty self centered person the supreme leader...many have suggested given the attitude of the CJ who at least attempts to look into people matters such as clean water and stents and parks that he may actually think of himself as a better qualified supreme leadership...since Nawaz Sharif only thinks about himself the present PM regards the army chief as his supreme leader...!The army chief is also a supreme egotist largely regarded as lacking a general understanding of most issues...he has of late been harping on the armies sacrifices which are supposedly all compensated in a myriad ways and looking a bit odd...others state that he is involved in beautifying himself and has a petty...narcisstic attitude...The UK armed forces chief who took a walk up a baloch hill with the army chief attired in a new uniform enquired how a pakistan army chief is always wearing a new uniform while he is wearing a ten year old uniform...the army chief said that he gets 30 new uniforms free every year...!what a waste...! others suggest that the army chief gets more than 140 free uniforms a year...!...Nawaz Sharif has come out of crisis before...he was chosen by the military after they hanged ZAB...early on he was involved in money minting and than tried his hand at ISI type islamism...however offlate he had gathered substantial support and was trying to shun his money bags rich bad guy image...however his age has slowed him down(spent three months recuperating in england for a stent or sciatica...!)(some say dementia made him think that the SC would not disqualify him) and he cannot get around without the pajero culture--a hundred houses and 'england mein ilaaj' which is a severe impediment to any peoples revolutionary leadership aspirant...he was earlier given a ten year self disqualification by the military/ISI...his only way out now lies in some sort of constitutional quackery by the next parliament or even a pardon by the president...which although not an accepted legal process could be given on application say by issuing an ordnance etc...tareen and nawaz sharif have both been given a way to regularise their england assets by the abbasi amnesty......however the issue here is that the people cannot handle crooked political dictatorships in sindh and punjab...they are regarded as incapable of say consigning a zardari, bilawal or even a nawaz sharif permanently to the files of NAB...!such leaderships donot occur in KP or balochistan...
  
• Apr12-2018--The government seems tobe lying about the number of income tax returns that are filed...The 30 lakh armed forces(defence organizations plus FF and AFW) alone should be filing around 2-3 million tax returns...The armed forces are a major loss to the government almost to the tune of Rs2 trillion from which it literally gets no returns...going by that parameter there should be at least 4-5 million tax filers just from established employed sectors...The government makes a huge hue and cry on the 10-30 billion rupees that it has to invest in PIA but never mentions the almost tax free armed forces allocations...the armed forces are allowed almost tax free imports and dont even have to be to pay toll taxes on major highways and bridges...and get subsidies on railways and PIA as well...This is apart from free military services that are enjoyed by the entire military...
  
• Apr6-2018--The new islamabad airport has been completed but without a flight kitchen...PIA has already stopped serving breakfast or food onits IBD-karachi flights..they now serve a bad bread roll...first plane to land tommorrow

• Apr6-2018--Army chief has again started his politicking this time visiting Naqeebullah Masoods father in South Waziristan with a high level military delegation assuring him of justice...one wonders how the army chief can encroach on the judiciaries powers to that extent...!At the moment the army chief only has the power to approve death sentences of terrorists handed down by military courts...
  
• Apr6-2018--Afghanistan protests pakistan airforce bombing in Kunar...pakistan denies accusation...when afghanistan can bomb pakistan thru drones than so can pakistan...!

• Apr6-2018--The CJP in what many regard as a distancing himself from judicial activism against SC judges dismissed pleas against the almost illegal appointment of Justice Isa as BHC chief justice...he was appointed directly and the consultation process seems tobe non existent...many regard the CJP as having become frightened of pukhtun racist rhetoric...!
  
• Apr6-2018--The makkaar and some say beghairat primeminister today announced a tax amnesty scheme for the rich who keep their illgotten money abroad or even in pakistan...He bemoaned that no one pays taxes...one wonders where and who the government collects the over Rs.5 trillion in taxes from...many are keen to suggest that the scheme is designed for Nawaz Sharif and Asif Zardari...Nawaz Sharif can easily sell the Avenfield apartments and shift the money to pakistan...or maybe Maryam Nawaz aka safdar can do that...seems designed to legalise overseas assets or Panama assetts of people like himself or even the countries criminal biradri many suggest...maybe he too has hidden AirBlue assets overseas...!He said that Nawaz Sharif has never phoned him or given any advice...actually others suggest that he ends up in Nawaz Sharifs homes in raiwind and england just by chance...!one wonders how a scheme can work with with only two months left for the next government and why the government did not wait for the budget or get it approved by the cabinet...the budget which should theoretically be announced by the caretaker setup...one wonders how the primeminister can have the gall to suggest that it is meant for the entire populace and not for a few industrialists and bussinessmen...first he said that tax payer numbers were low than he reduced the rates of taxation with a taxable limit being 1.2 million and above...That will probably reduce taxpayers to 2-3 lakhs...!...he probably wants to help his cronies in government and the assemblies...whose tax will be substantially lowered...when someone can send Nawaz Sharif/Shahbaz Sharif 1 million dollars without taxation than who else will pay for whitening foreign funds...upto now foreign remmittances are tax free...!The supposed Economic Advisory Council suggested that they had not been consulted but told...
  
• Apr5-2018--Another TLP-government-army crisis could be possibly brewing with the TLP suggesting that government/army/gaurantors have been given 48 hours to implement the islamabad-army-PMLn--TLP-pirs agreement...!
  
• Apr5-2018--The punjab chiefminister announces that he has never heard of the Bajwa doctrine nor does he know why the army chief has been abroad while important events took place in pakistan...some also say that Bajwa has a deep love for spending weekends in Dubai...!while one has never heard of any specifics of the Bajwa doctrine others suggest that he may have a convoluted interest in economic policies...how can there be growth when the armed forces extort over 2 trillion...his afghan doctrine is similar to earlier military chief policies and he may be behind the distancing from the USA despite not being personally opposed to US policy...other aspects maybe the supposed military support to a india-russia/ iran-russia line of thinking which obviously is of no help to pakistan strategically given our support/distancing policy from saudi arabia...our policy will force saudi arabia into the US-israeli nexus...
