Re: Pakistan to build one of the World's tallest building in Karachi
Whats with you people... Must you politicize everything? This is a really cool project...
Re: Pakistan to build the World's tallest building in Karachi
The tallest building is going to be the Burj Dubai... To beat the Burj you would have to go exceptionally high. I dont think its possible for Pakistan as yet.
If we start losing himmat we can never construct the tallest building.. I understand Burj Dubai is 165 floors.. we can easily do 200+- but Karachi is a bad choice.. it should be constructed in Punjab- Multan, Pindi or Lahore could be ideal choice..

Maybe, but its will take a lot of time... Paks economy needs to grow, and the heights of the buildings have to reflect its economic capacity...
I mean, companies will only build so much space as they can use and the profit from...

Re: Pakistan to build the World's tallest building in Karachi
Fraudz, I said we should bridge the gap b/w two extremes,
sure, no issues with that statement
now what it has to do with commercial buses and taxis. I am not against building financial centers, etc. But I am against spending so much money on one project that basically targets a certain class.
the exact same thing it has to do with the building. private commercial venture versus public service expenditure. for all I care they can build theme parks on the beach, revolving restaurants etc.
Fact is that niether you nor I have seen the financials. how the private funding is coming about, how govt is supporting it (majority tax subsidies I would think) and what the ROI is for the developers. No one in his right mind would want to build a building that is a losing proposition. The analysts assumptions could be wrong but they ahve to do due diligence to calculate how they are making money.
The only way they are making money is if the spaces are sold/leased. which means they are being taken by businesses, which means the businesses are buying and selling goods and services, which means people must work to produce and transport the goods, deliver the services etc. they would need supplies to make the business work from other businesses etc etc.
so while a certain class may be targeted, the impact would be seen across all classes, unless you expect millionaires to be mopping floors, driving delivery vehicles, working as security, receptionists, waiters, construction workers, electricians, plumbers etc.
And it has nothing do with karachi, I would have said the same if it was built in Lahore or Islamabad.
I never said it has anything to do with karachi or lahore or anything. I may have had an issue if it was being built in tindo jam, but not with it being built in a major city.

Karachi is a bad choice given the violent state its slides in so easily- look at the recent turn of events. Like it or not, Karachi is a hell-hole of Altaf bhaiyya and his pals who kill anyone they want at their discretion.. if we would were to construct the tallest building in Karachi with multinationals in it, MQM goons will go and do bhatta-wasooli from the foreigners. What will it do to the image of Pakistan. The tallest building needs to be in Punjab cuz Punjab is peaceful, anything closer to the army is safer than amongst Karachi's violent bhaiyyas

I am not from Multan but lived there for a long time although my family comes from Sheikhpupra :p

oh believe me there are enough ethnic slurs that can be thrown about against Punjabis as well, but a civilized upbringing may prevent people from using it :)
mods bhai, zara in saheb ko sambhal lo, iss say pehlay in ko mein sambhal loon.
Re: Pakistan to build one of the World's tallest building in Karachi
^ I dont think I have used any ethnic slurs in my posting.. I dont do that. Aap khama-khah naraz ho rahey ho janaab. I have seen from your posting that u are also opposed to MQM-tactics and Altaf- so your getting upset comes as a shocking surprise to me.. Why anyone like you from Punjab be upset?

Dude i though u were going to give me some justified reasons.....like karachi being on the cost line and not suitable for tall structures.... ...or watever.... but wow ...your point is beyond that reasoning.... anyhow... looking at ur scenario well we didnt see any violence in karachi since early 90's uptill now..... so ur reasoning for not constructing a tower in karachi is baseless...... anyway... if u consider ur self a true pakistani u wouldnt diss ur own countrymen by calling them bhaiyyas....or calling karachi hell hole...*
