My neighbor was a Tamil ‘He lived in a brickyard and ran a lady’s garment business’ He had four factories and he would surely be a billionaire ‘When a man’s power goes beyond a certain limit of wealth and fame, his appearance It changes.
“You see an unknown famous ‘rich or powerful’ person somewhere, you would feel written on his face, ‘I am not an ordinary man’ and his face also said he was a special person,” Flyte said. flew from singapore and i got busy reading the book’ he was looking at the book sideways’ i smiled and handed him the book.
“I didn’t mean that at all,” he blushed, “I found the title of the book interesting, that’s why I was looking at it.” I laughed and replied, “You can keep this book.” The copy is there” he smiled and thanked him and so the conversation started with him “he used to make all varieties of ladies garments” Europe and Japan were his customers” his business was in India but he lived in Singapore. I was.
When I asked the reason, his answer was that there is cleanliness and peace in Singapore. That’s why I live here with my family. Diya said “Yes but Singapore has South Indian food” Temples and weather “It’s hot and not cold” The infrastructure is excellent and the society is crime free.
It’s not too far from Chennai so I spend 10 days a month in Singapore and 20 days in India” I agreed. “Lee Koon U really created a better country in the East than Europe and people want to live in it now. Want.
I went to Singapore for the fifth time on 23rd August for two days. There was no particular reason for this visit. I had a visa so I reached Singapore. This time I met two Singaporean Pakistanis. Latif Siddiqui runs a shipping company. .
Their ships sail all over the world and they do billions of rupees annually. The other is Dr. Shahzad Naseem. Dr. Sahib is a native of Khanewal. He arrived in Singapore in 1973. Worked in Meinhardt company and progressed to become the CEO of the company.
Bill Meinhart, the owner of the company, adopted him as his son. Bill died in 2003 and the company was transferred to his daughter. Beech Myheart is one of the largest design and construction companies in the world. It has built 30 tallest buildings in the world, dozens of airports and metros. These people complete projects worth 25 billion dollars annually.
They are also currently designing the new capital of Uzbekistan. They also have about a dozen projects going on in India. They have offices in 55 countries and have five thousand employees. Dr. Shehzad and his son Umar Shehzad are both good-natured and sensible.
He is also involved in the Investment Board of Singapore and he is also involved in the Prime Minister’s House. He has worked with dozens of heads of state and is still doing so. Shahzad Naseem came to Pakistan during the reign of General Pervez Musharraf and started building six-star flats by the sea in Karachi called Creek Marina.
These were eight 35-storey towers and they were the tallest buildings in Karachi. This project started in 2005 but could not be completed in 2023, i.e. 18 years. And also eight airports in India.
I asked Dr. Shehzad Naseem, “Why did you fail in Pakistan?” He laughed and replied, “It takes four lives and eight clones of you to complete any project in Pakistan.” One of his cousins should appear in the courts every day, another should attend the FIA office, the third should take his head in NAB, the fourth should wear shoes in the Development Authority, the fifth should sit in the Chief Minister’s House, the sixth should be in touch with the bureaucracy and the army.
Seventh kept fighting with clients and eighth Hamzad got work done on the site. It is not a matter of a single servant. I felt his story sad. were in the bank.
I had a very good relationship with them. They were also familiar with our work, so they took me to Pakistan. We started work in Karachi. Contract done ‘Work on site started’ In 2008, terrorism started in Pakistan and attacks on Chinese started, so our Chinese company went back.
He had a bank guarantee of one billion rupees. The court gave a stay order against him. The Chinese company started proceedings against us, so the work stopped. Meanwhile, someone applied against us in NAB. NAB started an inquiry. Done ‘This inquiry continued till 2021’ We were humiliated sometimes by one office and sometimes by another office.
During this time, we engaged a local company with us. They did not work and did not give their share and on the contrary they also filed a case against us. We were still dealing with them when the authority canceled our lease. Now four wars were being fought – the front was open with the authority – the cases of the local partner were suffering – the NAB inquiry was going on – the pressure from the clients was also increasing – we had to build thirteen and a half hundred flats yesterday.
Only 250 of them were booked. We had three and a half billion rupees. “We got tired of going to Pakistan” during this time, Covid also came “our three years were wasted in this too.”
We still want to complete our project but our names are on the stop list ‘FIA inquiry is going on for five years’ we are also being summoned by courts and our accounts are also frozen so you tell yourself how we will work? We need to go to Pakistan to complete the work but we are on the stop list.
Our local partner is not allowing us to breathe through FIA. The authority is not allowing us to work and in these eighteen years, an item of one thousand has reached fifty thousand rupees. When we started working, the dollar was 60 rupees. “Today it is not even available for 315 rupees” If we take an international company, tomorrow the government will not allow it to take dollars out, so why will it go there again and if we hire a Pakistani company? It will not be allowed to work by our local partner who is holding us by the neck, so how will the project be completed under these conditions and what is the guarantee that we will go to Pakistan and our names will not be included in ECL and If this is done, our offices in 55 countries will be closed, our international projects will be suspended, so what have we earned in this mess?
I asked him, “What is the solution in your mind?” Dr. Shahzad Naseem’s answer was, “Army Chief and Prime Minister should also listen to us. They should remove the obstacles in our way.” Our FIA. And get rid of the courts “Let us complete the project” Let us hand over the flats to our clients and the matter is over” You guys are happy in Pakistan and we are in Singapore” He paused and then laughed and said “You are all over the world.” Looking for investors but don’t kill your people.
Can it work like this? Second, will the Singaporean investors go to Pakistan after seeing my fate? You should remember that the biggest potential of Pakistan is its overseas. If they come and do this work, other investors will come after them, but if they are humiliated in the exports of courts, then no one will come. ‘.
He stopped and said, “Please answer this question from the Prime Minister and the Army Chief.” If you are not allowing me to come to Pakistan from Singapore. If you are not leaving my neck, then how will the project be completed? Will I work via satellite and secondly if I am being harassed by my local partner ‘not allowing this project to go ahead then which door should I knock’ who do I contact?”
