Laanat h FBR pe..
Insanity at its height. No item in the list can be called ‘luxury’ item.
FBR is providing multiple opportunities to unscrupulous profiteers and hoarders. The common man is already finding it hard to survive. Such measures will only add to their miseries. Who cares?
Is this list at commercial level only,or people coming from abroad, bringing items on the list. For personal use.

Apne protocols kam nai krne in logon ne bs awam ko lootna ha. Allah ki laanat ho tax lgane walon pr or Pakistan ko nuqsan pohnchane walo pr.
Not a single tax on property? Saale gareeb logo ki qabar tak per tax hogya hai ab. This a failed state.
Who told you there is no tax on property?

They are a bunch of idiots. This will affect grocery shopping significantly just for padding the pockets of looters, thieves in civil, judicial and military service.
Fair warning to IMF/World Bank and other bilateral lender agencies: As Pakistani public, we will not own any loan given to current US/Bajwa selected government and Nawaz selected military leadership in our name. Any loan given to them will be completely at your own risk
Fucking Pakistani govt
Chlo tex tou laga do lekin kya in logoin ki loot mar khatam ho gi. Jobs creats hoin gi science or technology main development ho gi . P.hd level ky bundy rulty phir rahy hain.800000 high level ke log mulk chor kr ja chuky hain. CHAINA in ko tawy pr tal kr kha kaye ga. Leadership nai hai nation burbad ho gai. Media bhi right way pr nahi hai.Media pr bhi political affair baqwas ke siwa kuch nai ata.

اللہ پاک اس ملک کے عیاش حکمرانوں اور آلہ کاروں کو تباہ برباد کرے جس ملک میں عوام کی امانتیں لوٹ کر رکھی ہیں سب چھین لے آمین اسکی لاٹھی کبھی کبھی تو برسے گی
