Gujuratis may be notorious in Pakistan for being the most rabidly anti-Pakistan/anti-Muslim segment of Indian society, but at least our brothers in East Punjab understand that they stand to benefit from trade with Pakistan! Maybe business-minded Gujuratis will see the benefits that Gujurat would have from closer ties to Pakistan.

We in Pakistan should grab this opportunity and trade with our Indian counterparts as much as possible. Regards visa rules, these being relaxed will also help the national airline who said that if visa rules were relaxed India would be one the biggest destinations for it to fly to. Until these rules are relaxed though the business community can use technology such as skype to interact and contact each other. <br /><br />The main benefit as i see it is when trade with India is the reason for job creation and uplift of Pakistan. This will give ammunition to counter the India dushman hai league. It will also push forward the peace process as both countries will have a vested interest in peace. We need our economies to be more integrated, this will inevitably lead to peace. Look at how European countries are so integrated, we should be the same. Our future lies in integrating our economy with India's this is a good first step, long may this continue - ameen!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19649274.post-20420336550668238862011-11-03T16:24:32.198+05:302011-11-03T16:24:32.198+05:30Given Pakistan`s history there will be even more t...Given Pakistan`s history there will be even more terrorism inflow in the garb of trade - it is inevitable.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19649274.post-13847295913583386022011-11-03T12:52:16.355+05:302011-11-03T12:52:16.355+05:30Pakistan is one of the world's largest cement ...Pakistan is one of the world's largest cement producers- hence it would most likely be exported to India. <br />While I think MFN status is a great move and will surely boost trade, I cant be sure as to how it will pan out in reality considering both controls have tons of bureaucracy that can create unnecessary hurdles.Sehrish Shabanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12191385845376283321noreply@blogger.com
