First of all, its not being funded by Pakistan's khazana.
it doesn't have to be funded by the khazana to cost Pakistan in the long run.
Secondly, your electricity claim is definitely valid. A metro train requires 800 V. How will it be managed?
Another point. Why is China investing such a hefty amount?
Id like to see what the running costs, maintenance, other extra costs will be. Risk assessment??
Only time will answer these questions. However, I don't understand the whinging. Like I said before, a Metro train is not a luxury; its a necessity for a very busy and big city like Lahore.
I'm not whingeing, I'm simply asking the pertinent questions. No doubt the big cities require these projects. im not against the project perse, but I would like the govt to prioritise and make sure that the project fits into a wider strategy. At the moment it seems to be a bit short term and in the long term could cause problems for the people of Lahore.
It will create employment, reduce traffic and is much cheaper and easy on the budget than petrol, gas and diesel, not to mention the reduction in pollution.
where is the feasibility study to say that this will definatley happen??
Not everyone has air-conditioned cars. The working population will absolute love it, especially office going people and its a basic facility of every major city.
Its good for the people and those who are criticizing it will use it themselves. What is your problem with it then? Of course living in England, it seems like a waste to you, but its not.
I have no problem with the system itself. But you have to prioritise. These infrastructure projects must be part of an overall strategy that will alleviate the populations difficulties. Simply building them without a long term vision will cost more. That's my point. Just because I'm living in England doesn't mean I don't care about what happens in Pakistan. My family is there incl my Mother so its a big issue for me. I would take the PMLN over all other parties except the PTI. They always engage with the nation and do try to develop infrastructure but their failing is their long term vision. This is where I'm hopeful the PTI have it right. I'm hoping the infrastrucre devs in pak bare fruit.
