“First they steal money then introduce tax amnesty schemes. Such schemes are created to benefit the corrupt. Only corrupt elements become the ultimate beneficiaries. This is to fool the honest people of the country and encourage corrupt elements to plunder and amass wealth, only to whitewash it later on”. — Imran Khan
All governments in the recent past when facing economic slowdown have introduced amnesty schemes to kickstart the economy. The result has always been the same. The promised fruits failed to materialize.

Unfortunately like every thing else it seems that he believe that he knows more about Pakistan’s economy than the economists. He has arrived that the Solution to all problems in the economy can be resolved through the construction sector as it engages ‘more than 40 different industries’ irrespective of the consequences and for this amnesty scheme is the best.

Imran Khan’s poor vision that could not go beyond chickens and eggs caused irreparable damage to Pakistan.
