I completely agree with Sir Atif mian. 2020-02-09T07:13:30Z Comment by itsaboutcode Very good interview. Though I think lack of or bad decision making is not a problem but symptom. In my humble opionion, The real problem, which was discussed briefly in this program is - no one in control. 2020-02-09T05:19:01Z Comment by Hassam Tahir I think there needs to be correction here. You guys might be misunderstanding these dollar denominated returns being given to IPPs. By dollar denomination it meant that certain components of the Capacity rate was indexed on the dollar exchange rate but was all paid in Rupees. So it doesn't impact our current account 2020-02-08T19:10:40Z Comment by itsaboutcode In 90’s the dollar and IPPs policy was taken with what assumption and what alternatives we had at that time? Secondly what leads to those decisions? Mahbe poor decisions making in 80s? 2020-02-07T16:22:32Z Comment by user956896984 Your work is appreicated, Uzair. One small request/suggestion. Too long, the discourse on the economy in Pakistan has been limited to english newspaper op-eds and academic spaces of private univeristies. I think there is tremendous space and need to translate and discuss the country's economic policies in a manner and language that may reach a much wider audience. To this end, if possible, consider conducting some podcasts in Urdu. As Dr. Mian said, there should be no policy without debate, and the debate and discussion must be accessible to the broader public in Pakistan. Looking forward. 2020-02-07T15:34:02Z
