A nuclear power with a chatotic-evil government is backing religious extremists who are taking over Afghanistan, again and are violently forcing extremist wahhabi on the people.
Imagine what will happen when the taliban takes over Pakistan.
The more leaks the better.
all those cameras and still crime is not stopped. By all means track dissidents, at this stage I've stopped even caring, but can you please nab car thieves too?
all that tracking via our CNIC (id card numbers)... and still process are so slow and inefficient, you can track my every phone call and sms but can't ensure I get access to easy credit?
like jeez, I know I'm being rammed regardless, atleast buy me dinner
Earlier quoted context omitted.
> Pakistan's biggest cellphone provider is China Mobile pakistan's largest cell service provider is Mobilink, owned by an Egyptian company "Orascom", which in turn was bought by dutch based "Veon"
It worth checking numbers again. I felt that Zong has passed the Mobilink by subscriber numbers few years ago, especially with their internet offers as of late.
> According to the complaint, authorities in Pakistan invited various companies to submit proposals, including Motorola, Nokia, and Huawei This sounds surprising, are Motorola and Nokia really in the police IT systems business? The common factor among the 3 companies seems to be that they make mobile phone related things.
Motorola sold their phone business to Google, Nokia sold there’s to Microsoft, Nokia then sold their name to a Chinese phone company and are just involved in telecommunication equipment these days, so is Motorola it seems.
The claims about huawei in the west were never substantiated. Are these?

A nuclear power with a chatotic-evil government is backing religious extremists who are taking over Afghanistan, again and are violently forcing extremist wahhabi on the people. Imagine what will happen when the taliban takes over Pakistan. The more leaks the better.
I clearly remember going to give a demo of one the systems and at the end of it the British Consultant belonging to ARUP consulting firm told the Huawei software team in a passing remark "lets meet later and i`ll teach you guys about version control". Thats how I came to realize that the Huawei team may have hardware expertise, but the people they had working at SafeCity Lahore were not very competent at software.
Midway through our engagement some members of the Punjab Police (government) informed us that the Huawei folks were taking our documentation for various projects and shopping around for cheaper quotes. This is where things started going really sour.
Aside from this we encountered many other hurdles from Day 1 and the overall process was very unpleasant to say the least.
the thing that really pisses me as a paki is not the fact that we are so regularly tracked, but that despite all that tracking... there is zero upside all those cameras and still crime is not stopped.
