Re: Consequences of Free Trade with India
i have heard from ppl that stuff in india (specially pharmaceutical products) is very cheap and the consumers in pakistan will greatly benefit overall coz they will save money, our pakistani manufacturers will face stiff competition and will have to up their quality. some medicines which are less than 10 rupees in india cost more than 50 rupees in pakistan.
Irem yaar, dil na jalao. na apna, na mera, na hum sab ka.
Dekho, someone told me that US “dumps” all their “old stock” of medicines and pharmaceutical products to india cz they want any income they can get out of that old expired stock. They change dates and sell to india and those countires who want it cheap. i think medicines are expensive in pakistan cz people are expensive and buy valid or expensive stuff. the pakistani government spends on getting it’s people valid medicines and not outdated like india cz india’s only worry is its military strength and spends on gaining more nuke and stuff to get the “feeling” that it is powerful. they care sh!t about their poor people dieing taking those cheap medicines.
i think what india is planning now to “dump” the same old stock to pakistan. i dont know about the government but i really hope that our people are not fooled by the cheap prices and refuse to purchase any cheap imported products. well, we just need to educate people. well, you know i learned from my parents that we should create no difference. we used to go buy the grocery and all the consumer products from these indian lullu, ram ram, and similar supermarkets. they were so innocent. i opened their eyes to the reality. told them how indians would avoid to buy a lollipop for their kid or a battery from a pakistani departmental store. cz i SAW it with my own eyes. and this was going on for unknown number of years (when i was a child). they come here rolling their eyes and post that we are so insecure to think of not buying anything indian. but none of them would be able to tell me out of which insecurity they would not buy a bottle of mineral water from a pakistani vendor several years ago (not that it does not happen anymore). still my parents create no difference but i refuse to keep doing so anymore. i regret wasting all my hard earned money on those cheap products which they use for buying weapons to kill our muslim brothers stuck under their rule and to threat pakistan.
they calling you insecure but each of them should look at their own posts which clearly shows how much insecure they are and how desperate they are to make pakistan a a part of its own. not only pakistan but ruling over the whole continent of asia. they are trying to do that in all aspects. all aspects, slowly setting their feet in. but know what? this dream of theirs would turn into a nightmare when… ha ha ha… i fear hurting some hearts (any peaceful indian hearts on this board who do not dream of this), so i wont say it but. do not worry yourself too much irem. im sure sensible / expensive people would not buy any cheap products. afterall, we have learned this lesson from themselves else we, pakistanis are, naturally open and generous hearted to care about this sh!t. they understand the typical cunning indian nature and more and more people are getting to understand it. so no worries :k:
Chandbeti - Not claiming to meet as many indians as you claim to have but I can tell you that there is this “sectret dream” of ruling over the entire asia… believe it or not. maybe you’d like to meet more indians that you have to know that.
and the usual hypocrisy still stays - a person who watches DDLJ two dozen times trying to protect her country from the indian cultural colonization.
queeray!!! id have to agree with you on this cz yes, the first thing we need to fight is the hypocricy of still using indian products.
