Pakistan threatens to use nukes, Chinese has the habit of issuing warnings and ranting.

Some extra work for our think tanks .... simple !

Some times with uncle, some times with KSA or sometime with NK....

 

[sob]

You have the RAND corporation in the US.

Trust the Pakistanis to copy something without looking at the result.

 

[ezsasa]

If the name is RANDI maybe we can assume that Bakis were not even consulted on the name, As usual Baki will be doing what they do best

1) Praise the Chinese to the sky
2) Crib if payments fall short of expectations
3) Move on to the next Patron, when job done.

Imagine the designations at this institute

RANDI Chairman

RANDI Research fellow
RANDI Assistant

[Singh]

What is the budget and scope of this RANDI ?

 

[prohumanity]

RANDI can entertain any customer...even India...if right price is paid... VERY FUNNY INDEED ! RANDI is loyal to money...not to any particular customer.

 

[SADAKHUSH]

So now both Pak and Chinis are officially RANDI now..........

It is joke of the day. What were they thinking when they came up with this acronym? May be Pakistan likes being part of RANDI organization. It is going to be humiliating for Pakistani's if and when this comes up for discussion between Pakistani's and citizens of other South Asian nationals. What will they think of next?

 

[blueblood]

They will work alongside P.I.S.S (Pak institute of strategic studies) and S.H.I.T. ( Strategic Homeland Intervention against Terrorism).

 

[mayfair]

Research and Development International- Simplest thing would have been to call it RDI, but it seems that they chose to go out of the way and call it R.A.N.D.I.

Was it purposeful to attract publicity to this new institute and get people to notice it, knowing very well that twitteratti would take a royal piss out of the whole thing?

Or was it Freudian gesture by China to remind the Pakis of their place in this relationship and the whole wide world?

I am beginning to believe that it was a mix of both!!

Anyway, anything that allows us to take the piss out of the sorry Paki arses, is alright in my book. #GO R.A.N.D.I. GO
