Ultimate corruption in Pakistan with Pakistanis. Did you really know how you are bieng robbed
In the last century thousand such frauds took place which amazed the human mind. The biggest fraud of the 19th century was done in the city of London. This fraud was done by a cashier of an international bank in London. The cashier withdrew 1 penny daily from each customer's account of that bank by the help of the computer, and deposited it into his sister's account. He continued to practice this for almost 15 years and made millions of pounds in this time. He was finally caught on the complain of a Jewish trader.
A similar fraud is being practiced in Pakistan since past 30 years. And this fraud is being done by our Government machinery. But before coming to the fraud, i would like you to tell the history of Pakistani currency because it is deeply related with the fraud itself. Pakistan's currency was launched in 1948. This currency had 6 different coins. Rupae, atanee, chuwanee, dawanee, akani and one paisa. On 1st January 1961, these coins were stopped and Ayub Khan introduce the decimal system. According to this now we had cpins of 50, 25. 10. 5 and 1 paisa. Till Zia regime they continued but started to diminish and since 30 years they have completely finished.
Why have these coins finished?? This is because state bank no more issues these coins. But the act of government is worth our attention, that whenever prices of petrol, electricity and gas are increased. They are increased in both rupee and paisa terms. For example, recently government raised the petrol prices by 5 rupee 92 paisa per liter. After which the petrol price per liter is 62.13 rupee. But the question is, if there is no system of paisa and no coins are available of paisa in the country, then why prices are changed in paisa terms. If a citizen purchases one liter of petrol, he will not be able to pay 62.13 rupee because of absence of paisa coins and would be forced to par 63 rupee instead. Meaning he would be paying an extra amount ov 87 paisa. So just estimate, daily 320,000 barrel petrol is sold in Pakistan. That makes 5,880,000 liter per day. Earning 87 paisa extra per liter means an amount of 5,115,600 rupee are earne by oil companies daily.And if u mutliply this amount by 365 dqays and later 30 years, you can imagine the amount Pakistani's have payed without any reason. And there is no accountability where that money has been used, it certainly hasnty been used on our welfare. Think,if there is no paisa system, in our country,then how come prices could be changed in paisa terms.
As we have Elected Democratic Govt but the things are not going very smooth as expected. Other country's involvement in Pakistan's affair increasing day by day. This article is a eye opening for the public and that show how Govt. is making money and not passing this to the general public. Now a days the cell phone package is cheaper then the Roti and sugar.
As we know the current government of Pakistan is a symbol of corruption and frauds what we can expect from such shameless rulers? Unfortunately our nation is still in deep sleep
umm quite a shocking thing.And to think this only explains fraud being done on petrol sales.if all other things that have same kind of fraud running in background are considered,the amount of money being made through those would be unimagnable....shocking really!!!
the leaders are people from within us...these are created by us,we chose them in elections...they are not alone in being wrong...its US as well!!! they are sitting on our heads because we allow them...wake up every one!!!
wel pakistan is still in the democratic phase but still it need atleast 10years to get on track with proper leadership but unforunately our current leadership faild badly too come up too the expectations of the people of pakistan!! wish the thingss get back on track with a sincere & devoted leadership (AMEEN)
its a real tym to open the eyes of people dat y shold v pay xtra o....whynot v thnk abut it seriously.If the whole nation get united these type of corruption goes to end. i wish all the thngs get back.
This is really an eye opener article. this shows the real face of our rulers who do not care bout there nation. but are only focusing on how to makemoney thru unfair means by stealing whats not thier's. i duno wat are govt machiner think likes and what ther motives are. but surely ifwe still donot learn from our mistakes. we mite have to pay a heavy price for awl dis.
It is very much right that fraud is being practiced in Pakistan not only in this feild of petroleum but in almost every field. The most important question here is that whom to blame? who is the culprit? So the answer is simple, we are to blame and we are the culprits ourselves. Why we are acting just like a senseless and powerless nation, why we are not bold enough to stand united and act against it. Our own government is treating us like slaves and we satisfie ourselves just by saying that we are a strong nation and living as an independent nation. We are not supposed to blame the government....blame yor own selves... We have to "Wake Up"
what ever is going in our country is very very disappointing. if we carry on doing such action which deter our progress. and result in none others but our own loss. we mite have to bear so dire consequences that wre may not even be able to recover then
pakistan has been facing the menace of coruption for a long time and that is the onlyu reason that we hav never progressed and developed according to our capabilities.
corruption has to be eradicated from its roos ir order to develop and prosper
If this is wat is ahppening daily. that means we are wasting millions of money just ti satisfy needs of dose who are rich and do not care bout dere nation
corruption is everywhere in our country. and that is the only reason we are not devloping
these things are very horrific. this is very disturbing to hear. that this how our leaders run our country and this is the reason that they are so rich and have awl the luxuries. while there nation is even deprived of the basic necesstaies of life
the main thing is that our countery politions are begares they get 70% of oil from saudi arabia as a gift but they on highly price in pakistan so should know about our resources as pakistani and we should try to control this influance of petrol bocz our politions and our leader are not able to do that becoz they stuck in the bundels of doulers thank you
OMG..this means that i pay more for less and that em wasting my money. and em financing the thiefs who have robbed our country since 60 years. this is a nightmare and nw i noe how our country is not improving and is in so much dire problems
this article is an inside story of what is really happening onour country. these are some of the methods and this shows the levil of evil in our rulers. we really need to get out in streets and fight this menace. like we did in the matter of chief justice
or else we should boycott petrol for sum days ion order to pay the price that is needed to be payed. our actions mite help us taking our country to progress
pakistan gets a lot of oil from iran on a very discounted price. saudia gives a very large quantity of oil to pakistan on just the cost price and even some of it is free.
and still we pay prices higher thn global fees?? this is awl because awl da top beaurucrates and top political personnel are involved in some kkind ov corruption and are trying to make easy money. plenty of them hav fortunes of money. and this is how they get awl dat money
goverment is well aware of this and is invloved in this problem. then who do we complian too, who do we ask for justice when those who hav to provide justice are invloved.

Nicely written, really loved reading that now more and more pakistanis' are getting concerned (as such they were already aware) of how they are being looted!! Just today saw a video clip about Mustafa Kamal (Karachi Mayor) how we need to own this country and build it. Best of luck to all us Pakistanis' to regain worldly status!! Hashim Jabbar Memon
This is really an eye opening article. the other day i was thinking the same way as the author pointed out. yes a lot of time we even don't notice such corruption. This article is will really create awareness on this issue.
This article reveals one of the most shameful sides of Pakistan which truly is disappointing. We should really learn from what ever we have done and should realize that what problems we face today are mostly because of this menace
Root cause is corruption and its root lies in the top machinery. If it stop within higher authorities it will finish completely
Stories and article like these are the ones that initiate a revolution. but alas that we still do not get effected by these articles. Still we do not get a message that it is time to act before it is too late. We have had a long journey since partition and we haven't done much for our country..

Corruption is the thing that is very dangerous in every society and country, in Pakistan corruption destroy all the society and all the cmuninties. If the Govt take a proper steps to erase corruption from the country, all the problem our country faced can be minimized
this has been a long tradition inour country to fine diffrent means to reach to a godd position, earn good benfits or get progress thru unfair means. One of the ways to achieve success without hardworking is CORRUPTION.
This termkte has made the govt machinery and the nation hollow. There is no law, no merit beacuze of this menace. we need to curb population. It has been enuff and those have made money and benifitted from cooruption hav lost nuthong. buh we the victims, have paid a heavy price in terms of our economy, education,. country devlopment and terrorism
may ALLAH help us and give us the sense of right and wrong and implementing it too.
A very amazing observation, i must say. Corruption and so many evil exists only because no one raises voice against them. Instead of changing the world, we should try to change ourselves so that we dont end up doing what we condemn in others.
Bob Marley was going to hold a peace rally when two days before a person came and shot him in his house. He survived and after two days went to the peace rally. Someone asked him why are you here and not taking rest. He said that when those who want to make this world a worst place to live, dont take a day off, then why should i?
By not raising our voice against such shameful acts we actualy become party to the same. Therefore, we need to educate ourself and other members of our society so that we could become a resposible citizen of Pakistan.
