The bikes’ policy made the bikes affordable but low quality also. The competition resulted in lower quality and lower price instead of higher quality and lower price and lower profit for the mafias.

The article fails to mention that motorcycles which are 74% of the national fleet by number are still being manufactured with 1970s technologies such as drum brakes and carburettor with no safety features aka ABS, CBS etc. although to its credit the article does mention the most-used commercial vehicles i.e. Bolan and Carry.

Maybe they is a lot of pakistani who are corrupted and doing corruption, like the PIA pilot without any degrees and proper training, a lot of thiefs, in the country that’s why we need too get rid of them to have serious people to ensure the good in all your speech, in a halal way.
That’s the fight of the new government , hope it will stay at least 20 years.

We also had a very closed bike market with only a couple of bike assemblers. Then, as far as I know, the policy changed and allowed a lot of companies, especially from China, to come in. It did bring down the prices and make the bikes affordable.
Why can’t this be applied to the car industry?
The auto policies being introduced are still very limited and the hold of the established marks as strong as ever with no change in sight. The tax structure also makes cheap cars expensive when they come to Pakistan.
What is so bewildering about the auto industry that the government just can’t seem to make it work?
Why are they so unwilling and/or scared to confront the local companies and hold them to standards or accountable or ask them for clarity or results? And why are they so unwilling to provide any meaningful tax relief that will bring cars within the reach of so many of the people and meaningfully increase sales? More sales would automatically translate into more tax collected. Why can’t they see that?
