If something is going up in Pakistan that is president Zardari's
wealth. The news is interesting and there would be a lot of people
who would like to know how Ms Faryal Talpur is going to have such a
huge Airline that plans to operate to dozens of local as well as to
international destinations across Europe and far East Asia (almost
to all locations currently covered by the PIA)? Certainly, this
Airline would need a large set up and fleet as well. I am wondering
what are the resources of Ms Talpur to establish and operate such a
huge Airline while she possess Rs. 92 million worth assets (that is
what she declared in her returns filed with the Election Commission
of Pakistan in 2010).
You are right to ask your readers to comment on this news. There
would be a lot of clueless people like me whoo would like to know
when we gonna have Pakistan's largest private Railways System
(previously known Pakistan Railways), Z & F Oil/Gas Company
(previously know OGDC) etc.
I believe, this is the time for the people to come up, ask and talk
about these mafias, which are, hiding "in the political uniform".
