Sugar prices
Sir: Over the past year, sugar
prices in the international market have declined by 39 percent. But in
Pakistan, we are paying 40 percent more for sugar than we did last year. The
probable reason for this is that many of our politicians (both in the government
and the opposition) are owners of sugar mills. Perhaps, Imran Khan should ask
his favourite associate Jehangir Khan Tarin, why he continues robbing us in
this manner. But then, Mr Tarin has to maintain an expensive aircraft to take
the great leader and his wife all over the country, so why should he allow poor
Pakistanis to get sugar at reduced prices?
