KARACHI, (UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 14th Oct, 2017 ) :Prime Minister Shahid Khaqan Abbasi Saturday reposed his confidence that the people of Pakistan would decide the future government, juxtaposing the unprecedented performance of Pakistan Muslim League-N with its rival political parties and previous regimes.
He noted that democracy was sine qua non for the progress and prosperity of the country and its people. The dictators had always failed to deliver and their rule did not augur well for the country�s future, he said.
The prime minister was addressing the inauguration ceremony of Pakistan International Bulk Terminal Limited (PIBT), the country�s first coal, clinker and cement terminal at the Port Qasim. The terminal has been completed at a cost of $285 million and so far provided berths to 12 coal ships.
The prime minister credited the people of Pakistan for their decision in favour of democratic system and noted that the continuity of the system would also provide panacea to certain issues. Under the democratic system, people make their best choices and sent those people packing to homes who had failed to perform according to their expectations, he said, adding the challenges always emerged but those would be tackled and resolved.
The prime minister further said when the PML-N government came to power in 2013, the country was beset with numerous crises including the crippling power outages. The government not only initiated work on 10,000 mw power projects but completed them whereas certain projects would be nearing completion and now the power supply was in abundance, he added.
The prime minister referred to visible functioning of different projects, being marshaled by the private investors and parties. He said the gas scarcity also hit hard the fertilizers industry and CNG stations whereas the domestic consumers and other industrial units faced paucity of gas, but the government also took vital steps overcoming the issue.
The prime minister said a huge network of highways and motorways was being built under the PML-N government. PML-N was the only government in the history that solely invested in the country�s future. Under the China Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) huge investment unparallel in country�s history was made which guaranteed prosperity, he added.
