Ghantaa ....I just visited Karachi....Pakistan may be earning foreign currency by selling underwears and banyaan....but :
Just incredible number of fancy, expensive SUV's
Mc Donalds, Pizza Hut , KFC
Foreign branded luxury shops...

You should realise that everytime you buy a foreign car, buy a burger at Mc Donalds ...you are forking out precious foreign currency. Imagine, paying foreign currency to import fuel and then blow it away on a 3500 CC car....when you are taking loans to import that fuel!!!
I don't know how and why would anyone want to drive around in a 2-300000 USD car.

You do realise, these multinationals take out their profit/royalty annually in foreign exchange!

Assalamu Alaikum, I am oversea Pakistani, i saw the video about to create new post, but not understood . anyways, i have a question. When Pakistan has banknote issue then why no one is talking to end this banknote system. Why no one is talking about this biggest issue ?
