An Appeal to Mr. Ishaq Dar FM Pakistan

Mr. Ishaq Dar, as you know, Musharraf government sold the Pakistani gold mine company PTCL, to Etisalat Telecom of UAE, with mind boggling condition of transferring 100% physical assets on just 26% share holding of PTCL, that too on pay as you earn basis.

Never ever in the history of the world any government has sold its precious assets on such throw away terms, to a foreign company.

As such, this deal clearly falls under the ODIOUS transaction.

Moreover, Etisalat Telecom is also a defaulter of mind boggling huge amount of $800 million to the GOP since about last 8-10 years. Therefore, in the national interest this PTCL sale deed with Etisalat Telecom should be cancelled and all their foreign executives posted in Pakistan be detained and only released after clearance of all dues with accrued interest by the company.

Mr. Ishaq Dar since you are under oath to serve Pakistan, we trust your personal relations with the UAE rulers will not come in the way of your duty towards your motherland.
