Pakistan looted by the Army . A second lieutenant becomes a general . On retirement all generals are billionaires . From where the money came ? It is a dead story . Who will listen ? We lost one part . In such a scenario the survival of the country looks bleak . The USSR disintegrated because of economic collapse . The Army was there . We are heading as a failed state . One must listen to it & understand the scenario . Allah Malik .
pakistan is a text book case of medieval oppression. its fate was sealed at partition by choosing feudalism instead of democracy. high intensity religious fervour was used for this purpose.
the preoccupation with religion has been kept artificially high. it is in order to preserve the control of feudal vested interests.
the path to decency is now very indecent.
history of societies suggests that only a very violent upheaval could create a chance of freedom of the individual and democracy.
despite it being a violent and violence approving society, there is no hint of such upheaval. good violence is totally absent, while there is a great deal of bad violence.

Dr Siddiqa is one of a few intellectuals who speak without fear and tell truth based on her research and analysis.
Dr. Ayesha Siddiqa is such a brilliant mind that listening to each word from her mouth is worth understanding. 👌

Timely. She is the best Pakistani Analyst of Military domination of State in different spheres including economy.
All armed forces pensions are paid from civil budget. This was started in the period of musharaf
Punjabion ne poore subcontinent ke musallo ko hutiya bana rakha hain😂😂
Before intruder Musharraf the pentions were paid from civilians funds , just to deceive IMF etc.
It started with the formation of Pakistan. Pak was created to block the red army . Jinnah was a British stooge and so was SIR Allama Iqbal
Army pension from civilian budget is 2-3 times of civilian pension .
+ perks like plots/lands/cheap commodities because they got their own ecosystem@@GuzzarAwan

Convert the corp commander’s palaces and fancy clubs to IT and AI colleges. Strategic investment in human capital will make Pakistan strong and resilient.
A public conversation is needed on new strategic framework to reverse the dangerous strategic drift.
Aysha Saddiqa is sharing her research findings.
I salute Dr Ayesha Siddiqa mam who wrote such a reality of Pakistan army.
It was a useful discussion and insight into the military political complex. She explained it well.
Military is corrupt and they don’t even know it. DHA and military procurement process is corrupt . Unless independent biding process is adopted , corruption will remain . I agree with her that military capacity needs to be cut by 25%. Military needs to stop moving into agriculture areas.
We are becoming like Egypt, everything is controlled by Army (CC). Country is poor , tourism and $1B from U.S. runs the country of 70M. No growth.
Pakistan is 250 M nation, needs political stability and cuts in Military and government enterprises.
Let the private sector develop the country.
Military's involvement in business is corruption. The private sector cannot develop unless military is removed from private sector. All militaries in normal countries are on a budget. They don't have these side businesses the way Pakistan army has. It's absolutely criminal. By some estimates they control 30% of the economy. Now in order to retain these goodies, they have to get involved in Politics to keep the system weak so one questions their crimes. This has been going on for 70 years.
Excellent analysis of the issues
Ayesha Siddiqua proud of your honest & sincere views, thank you
It's always a pleasure to listening to Ayesha sahiba, such a great intellect and acedemic gaint

I read her book from Yamunanagar to Amritsar and back , great book.... Great writing
It is available in India and which laungage
Such a detailed and prudent evidentiary approach towards military role in Pakistan with reference to its economy.
Hats off ma’am
A very intellectual discussion great work by this channel as well
Ma'am is one of the most courageous intellectual figure who has unraveled the excesses of the certain state institutions and the heist that is carried out since Inception of Pakistan against the letter and spirit of Pakistani people.
It is absolutely true. Military never ever should involve in politics
Yes but the Royal Indus Regiment is involved in geopolitics continuing Ghazwa-e-Rus / Great Game slavishly following its colonial master's Russophobic foreign policy.
Hats off to you mam... you have exposed the Pakistani generlas and their orgainization in the destruction and monopolization of business environment in Pakistan... And i will definitly read your book...
We have made our National security ( Internal security) vulnerable while approaching national defence.
Which department, which political party and which elite group in Pakistan is not corrupt?. Corruption is a part of our socieity and sadly it is a now a part of culture and is everywhere.
Which country politician is not corrupt
@@GuzzarAwan not at the level of Pakistan. I will prefer an Army Officer over a politician anytime. Pakistani politicians are mostly jaahil, ignorant chaudaries and Pakistan should be saved from them
When every institution becomes corrupt then the common man will not get justice anywhere.
@@vinoddamji5729 the common man in Pakistan is not an angel either. Try to buy some stuff from a vendor, go to a nearby mechanic or buy some fruit from a rehri (cart) and even many of them will try to deceive.. If we really have to blame then we should blame ourselves as we all are equally responsible for the current mess.
But the difference is these are the untouchables they are not account able for anything....
Generals illegal corporate business has eliminated competition . Army corporation can easily solve bureaucratic hurdles without spending penny while a private invester stuck in bureaucratic problems. Generals corporations can take subsidies , tax exemption by hook & crook so forget Pakistanis you make corporations like samsung , tata or byd
Now that corporate business is taking over agriculture.
- 1 million acres taken over in Punjab (plan is to take iver 10 million - all free)
- 52,000 acres taken over in Sindh (how much more not yet clear)
[Also I believe the actions against Bahria Town is actually land grab op and turning it into DHA - let's see if I am proven right)
This is art of controlling economic flow
From seed money profit of 26b/$
You can control
15000 trillion PKR cash economy & basically all services flow & employment including best of human resources
Doing business with common people & even foreigners
.
Military role as an economic catalyst has been dissolved in Pakistan
Some what of a templars role
But the beneficiary is all veterans that use this white/black money converting
& Insulting,teasing common poor folks
Our mead & butter is sadly military
Almost million directly employed & 5-6 million indirectly
True indeed.
Punjabis don't have that in them. Their genes r different. They r highly communist mindset. They think everything shd come as free . They don't understand economics. The jutt jamindar mindset hate Banias . Only Punjabi bania understand wealth creation . But they all were hindu and khatri and all went to India.
This mindset is prevalent in Punjab of India too. That's why state fiscal r very bad . Punjabis have Zamindar mindset also called chaudhary mindset. They Only know how to take wealth by force on basis of muscle power . They also live in Foolish concept of martial race which British gave them , not bcoz they were better than others but bcoz they were most Loyal to British. Today Americans consider human quality by muscle as least desired. They know war is moving to total machines and tech that's why they r recruit large number of women in army too.
But these Punjabi fojis will keep on extracting wealth from Pakistan forever. There is consensus in many Punjabi civilians too to support the fojis as most have some relative in foj .
THANX for awairing
Mr Bhutto was counselled by Indira Gandhi in Simla to reset civil-military relations for which he had the historic opportunity. And if he failed the generals would eat up his country in time.
I wish if it was that easy dear
Good program! Very good analysis! But there is no light at the end of the tunnel!
Actually the tunnel is getting much longer, much darker...

A very comprehensive in depth analysis by Dr Ayesha it actually breaks heart to find the roots of deterioration
In depth discussion.👍
Ayesha Saddiqa is a bold and brave woman who is a great researcher on Pakistan military in Business and Military Procurement.
Hates off to you Dr. Sahiba, what a brilliant personality, wise & brave analysis on 75 years captured nation. We pray for your long & healthy life, prosperity and happiness. May Allah bless you and grant courage to serve your nation bravely and strongly. We indeed need you❤❤❤
Great , I really appreciate like Dr ayesha siddiqa
Ismebamussamma khatoon
My view point is that our intelligentsia and media always supported establishment and they never supported politicians since creation of pakistan. In other words media is in the hands of establishment and so is with so called intellectuals. So long as media and agents sitting in media do not realize and change their stance, Pakistan will not move forward an inch, alternatively establishment realize it.
75 saal me public ko kuch samajh hi nhi ayaa??
Jab public khod support karegi fojiyo kp tou yahi hogaa
Dr. Ayesha is spot on.
Well done Ayesha!!! You did a good job, You will always be remembered in golden words by intellects.
“This administration has the strategic mind of a 12 year old “ - Zbiegniew Brezhinski
Russophobes like Brzezinski are responsible for the utter mess that is called Paki$tan.
Thanks for posting this informative discussion with Aysha Sadiqa, a great writer scholar.Though the state is not but people of Pakistan are proud of her research and brave presentation of her work.
Pakistan should forget Kashmir, withdraw their troops from the borders save money on their defence expenditure and use the money in the development of Pakistan.
Aysha Madam, Thank you for your work for Pakistan... Even a loyal Army man shall also appreciate you...
Poor Questions, otherwise an insightful interview.
It’s unfortunate that people who can help the country are pushed out by establishment
They only like those who play their games
Hum jo tareekh raaho main marey gaiy !! Proud of you Maam for bringing the truth. You are indeed a brave lady and intellectual.
fact based conversation... great video
Great Adi,...state within state, deeply exposed in detail.
I believe there was an Indian anchor or TV show host who said that every country has an army and Pakistani army is the only one that has a country, which basically means this country doesn’t qualify for label “country” but rather it should be called an army base.
Indian Anchors are stupid. What about Egypt, North Korea, Chad, Myanmar etc? You can file a case in the UN with your evidence.
Very informative & impressive interview Thanks

Great analyst Ayesha sahiba
Pls give English subtitles
The answer is Yes
The women of Pakistan are much more fierce, outspoken, and brave than the men. Asma Jahangir used to criticise the military’s role in politics with a fearlessness. Ayesha Siddiqua does not mince words about their corporate excesses. And now Mahrang Baloch is standing up to their oppression. When the men stop striking deals with them for their short-term gains and show courage like these women, Pakistan will finally be free from these uniformed tyrants.
Why was KPT undersold to AD ports? Who benefited?
Very well done. Good job.
Very great program
In fact, the Pakistan Army is no longer capable of fighting a war
This war cannot be fought
After India, Afghanistan's front has also opened
A separate insurgency against the army has broken out in Balochistan
Things will not change for another 30 years
بہت ھی معلوماتی کلپ اور عائشہ صاحبہ کا زبردست تجزیہ
What a analysis! Great
Excellent discussion by Dr Siddiqa , true if Punjab is Bifurcated into 2/3 parts we will not have a repeat of East Pakistan 🇵🇰 as their will be parity among provinces , Both Russia 🇷🇺 & China 🇨🇳 have autonomous provinces with own flags along with central flags , For Pakistan best would be for center just deal wiith 3 subjects currency , defense & Foreign affairs , even the capital be moved perhaps out of Punjab away from Rawalpindi ! This may save Pakistan. From its capacity issues , resource distribution & equality for all ethnicities & save the country !
Pakistan me mazid sube banae jaeen.switzerland me 26 sube heen. Italy me 20 sube heen. Har suba autonomus haa.har sube me union counsil hotte heen..har suba apne mamelat hud chalate heen. itne bare bare sube Pakistan ke lie hatarnak heen..
Qaid e azam also wanted this same arrangement with India under cabinet mission. Strong fedral shd be abolished . Tax collection rights shd be given to provinces . All provinces have enough resources to collect revenue for themselves. Like balochistan have lot of natural resources and it can impose levy on them.
Relations with All the neighbours shd be improved , US shd be removed from any control in pakistan affairs.
Foj shd be pushed back
Divide all Province....8 provinces are required for Pak. Make GB as a new province.
Also American influence should be removed from Pakistan.
Name of the game is "lack of transparency".. Please spell her name correctly which is Ayesha Siddiqa.
Name of the game is Ghazwa-e-Rus / Great Game. See what role the Indus valley played in the Anglo-Afghan wars to understand the Paki$tan Army / Royal Indus Regiment / Grand Army of the Indus.
A great account by Ayesha Siddiqua

Excellent analysis ,Great research
Salute to such an impartial analyst Dr. Ayesha Siddiqa, as this kind of people can guide us towards the collective targets and goals. The readers are also commemorated for their worthy and ethical reflection. I felt a sense of hope for the Good of Pakistan not only from Dr. Ayesha speech but also from the reader comments. It is hoped that Pakistani Nation will overcome their issues in the near future.
one of the best talk u ever have a chance to hear❤❤❤❤
For those who dont know : 1 ===> Every General gets 30 to 50 plot legally during his job , these plots are from 3 crore to 10s of crore each 2: == >After retirement every general gets top level jobs at any department. 3: ===> Every General has assets out of Pakistan 4: ===> Many large corporations like OGDC etc are under the total control of Generals and they make money out of it. 5: ==> No one know how much money is made by Military-cooperations and where that money go
Ayesha siddique is great researcher n sound personality to analyse correctly
One of the rare, top interview
Just fantastic
Very insightful, mature, and learned point of view. One thing that I do not agree with is that the atrocities meted out towards PTI workers are those who do not conform to the military establishment aren’t as hard as what happened to PPP workers in 1975 when Bhutto was detained. I think that the military has crossed cultural, human, and religious boundaries in such an uncouth, shameful, and barbaric manner that we had never seen earlier.
Bold ,brave ,honest and Great researcher
What a interview. Just amazing.
Good information
Actually it’s not the length of it but the darkness which is disturbing!
Great Analysis
All these issues should be looked with a positive view and use it in their sector for betterment of Pakistan.
No issues if money is made but the governance must be maintained by all.
