Something has been very wrong with PDF for the past year. They were not banning Indians, issues with cookies and thread refresh, way too many threads on Bangladesh and China, way too many threads on one-off small-time incidents in India, lots of criticism of Pakistan army, police etc.

Wonder if someone bribed the poor Paki owners and/or Moderatos? Or some other partial Indian infiltration?

Dawn newspaper article comments also ended earlier this year. Moderator shortage? Or the few Mods with average English abilities in the entire country immigrated (along with the other 1 million Pakis) in 2023?
Danda from Army is also possible

Don't get why asian tiger, high per capita income, secret neuclear power Bangladesh doesn't build it's own defence forum.
They had one. It was named BDMILITARY or something. It was facing intermittent technical and connection issues. The website no longer exists (suspended by the provider), although they maintain a twitter and Facebook presence.

bro...its all come from their cult. we can only stop them, if we end this cult completely from our lands. nothing is going to happen if we kill some of these radicals nd their imam etc. u can slow them, but u cant stop them with ending their cult completely from our lands.
That's a question for later this century when we achieve complete energy independence and technological independence. Then we can do the needful, i.e total cleanup of the subcontinent including pakistan and bangladesh, while the rest of the world can only watch and condemn. Till then, concentrate on achieving the above 2 factors, which is no easy task and will take decades.

No wonder suddenly their moderators are more active on Twitter (X), again posting coomer-ish content.

Thats because most of them are hardcore India hater Imrandi supporters. They thought they are deeper than the military deep state. I also saw most India basher pakis have pti/ik photos in their dp or cover photo.

‘Silent human capital crisis’
Published about 6 hours ago

1700973461533.png




EDITORIAL: The revelation by the World Bank (WB) that Pakistan lags regional countries in terms of human capital and poverty reduction, even much of the African region, comes at a very bad time for the government.

Inflation and unemployment are already at record highs, with extremely contractionary IMF bailout programme needed to stay solvent ruling out any chance of the government being able to provide any relief anytime soon. And, as rightly noted by the bank’s global director, Pakistan’s economic growth is too low to reduce poverty.

Therefore, all we can do is brace for the trend of people falling back below the poverty line, which began during the Covid lockdowns, to worsen with time. Interestingly, the WB also pointed out Pakistan’s “regressive taxation system” as a big part of the problem.

Reliance on indirect taxes, which hurt the poor a lot more than the rich, has incrementally increased in direct proportion to the country’s financial problems. And now, with more revenue needed to meet IMF’s stiff conditions, more life is being squeezed out of the middle and lower income classes; hence the twin poverty and human capital dilemmas.

The WB director also spoke very strongly about the large number of stunted children in the country. It turns out that 40 percent children under five years of age are stunted, which presents a serious challenges to the long-term growth of the country. These children will be at a disadvantage throughout their lives.

First, they will be malnourished and compromised in their childhood. Then the lucky ones among them that are able to get an education will lag behind others because their brains will be less developed. Then they will fall further behind when they work in competitive marketplaces.

Therefore, we face a whole generation that will be below par for no fault of their own. The WB calls this a silent human capital crisis.

The bank also suggests some solutions like focusing on child stunting reduction, developing private sector, fixing cash bleeding energy sector, improving water for promoting agriculture sector and increasing investments by creating fiscal space through improving taxes and reducing expenditures.

Yet, right as they are, none of these are new or not known to successive administrations. That just goes to show that we have only our leaders to thank for so many of our completely unnecessary troubles. From a vibrant, liberal and growing country once upon a time we have now fallen behind even countries in Africa just because of the loot, plunder and corruption at the top.

With another election around the corner, we’re hearing the same old promises all over again; the shameless, exploitative hunt for votes. But it may already be too late to rescue the country from itself.

For, there’s no more time or money to transform production, exports, the health infrastructure or save cash hemorrhaging SOEs (state owned enterprises). It is, however, still possible to fix the taxation system. But for that the elite would have to bring itself into the tax net.

None of that has happened so far. But now, with the country truly on the brink, there’s no other choice, even the elite that has eaten off the fat of the land for so long.
