At least some good news
ISLAMABAD: There is intense speculation in the federal capital as to who will be selected as Pakistan’s next finance...

"PML-N – the party considered the most likely to lead the next government – stated that while the party had proposed the name of Bilal Azhar Kiyani, appointed as coordinator to the Prime Minister on Economy and Energy in July 2022, but caved in to the establishment demand that the portfolio be retained by caretaker finance Minister Shamshad Akhtar"
No Dar,sane FM with continuity of reforms agenda (FMs and wicket keepers should always be from Sindh imo
as they're professionals who resist the short term, counterproductive policy decisions of politicians)
PTI won't form the government so they won't have to face the brunt of these unpopular decisions
They can continue to do their politics I am sure this weak coalition gov won't last more than 2 years max
Best solution was of course a normal election, strong government with good, professional FM but...
@Bilal @hydrabadi_arab @ziaulislam
The coalition govt will last till the military and judiciary are in sink that is for at least next 3-4 years (as extension is coming)
Next chief will also probably let the govt then complete the term and probably ask for a good election
Asim munir knows and judicary knows that Imran Khan won't let them , he has openly said that as he is a narcissist...so only solution will be break him or kill him.. that's what's going to happen, anyone can break after all people are humans ..bacha Khan spent 40 years in jail and broke in his 80s
With respect to economy..there will be no stability or investment unless Pakistan goes China style or on FIRESALE
WHen it's sale noone cares about stability, they will take it or invest ..give a 40% ROI and you will see everyone investing...
Afterall everyone invested in power sector with 25-30% ROI ..that crippled and destroyed Pakistani economy due to uncompetitive energy prices to the region
Ishaq dar is coming .. whether you like it or not..next move is probably going to be firesale...I expect debt to double, after all we can easily take on more debt to gdp ratio
Highlights
1- ishaq dar comes back, he redifines debt again to make it look nice
2- fire sale of assets, I expect pia, steel mills and several banks to be sold for zero dollars with debt taken over by the govt, hence debt goes up, growth picks up to some degree, exports plunges and imports run till the foreign debt/exchange is out
3- Imran Khan either dies of natural death in jail or breaks, hopefully rather then dying and creating another bhutto(and leaves the country) Pakistan can't afford a Bhutto in sindh, balochistan and Bhutto in kpk
4- this is my gut feeling unsure if this will happen but maryum consolidating power and reforming punjab like SINDH followed by eyeing the prize the army/center and trying to convert that in punjab police
5- money ain't coming from China or USA both have there issues (& political pressure), money will come from IMF(as west loves this govt) and it's strings (stability, no growth, fire sale !!)
If number 4 is successful that will be in the long run good for Pakistan since it will create stability but creating a new sharif empire ..we will know already that a good 60 years of maryum and juanid will be lined up (just like zardari successfully created sindh empire but revolutionary acts of replacing the system it self!)
Im hoping for real sector crash or rupee value crash to continue..have kept some money on sidelines for now
