Stop The Smugglers!
av khan
My Friends of ePakistan,
I write this article to warn you of a danger. A danger that is threatening to destroy the base of ePakistan's economy similar to how a rat chews away at the base of of a wooden building.
This Article is the first of my series of two or three articles which I will write in a span of a week or so dscussing, how and why our economy is suffering? And what,in my opinion can be done for its betterment.
Today my focus will be on, how and why the economy is suffering?
1. Its not that we don't have any workers or businessmen. The main problem is that most of our active citizens normally leave ePakistan(when they are not congressmen or the presidents) of-course some people like kualkerr, aovelhaengra and bozli are sometimes needed outside the country while the reason of most of the people for leaving country is that they want to work in places with higher wages value with respect to the gold. The main reason for that is, they want enough gold everyday to train with at least 0.19 Gold training centres. A very noble cause, I am sure 😛
But due to this we lose precious workers.
2. Most of them also want to have the citizenship of a country with higher resources those of ePakistan. Again I am sure for the noble cause of fighting better for ePakistan (Although, don't tell anybody, but sometimes its also for the competition with other ePakistanis in the race of getting extra glory 😉
But due to this we lose a lot of businessmen as well as consumers.
3. Though the cause which revolts me the most is the smuggling. The people who have go outside not only deprive ePakistan of their economical services but also try to deprive it of its taxes. I have seen countless times now. People here and there trying to to sell their good outside the market for PKR. While its perfectly fine to buy like this if you are buying in Gold. But they not only disregard the import taxes, which have been raised to 99% just for the purpose of stopping people outside from encroaching on the business dealings of ePakistan. But they also jump over the VAT while they are not paying us any income taxes as they are citizens of other enations.
While this thing not only tends to stop people from buying from ePakistani Market. It is also the reason our treasury is so low always with no taxes coming in, hence we have so few alliances and hence making it impossible for us to even supply our soldiers for even our most high priority battles making us depend on our public for help even in that.
So my friends,
If you want to help ePakistan's economy.
If you want to have 20 MPPs.
AND
If you want to see ePakistan supplying all its soldiers itself without your direct help.
Come back to ePakistan.
Work in ePakistan.
And most important of all
STOP THE SMUGGLERS!
More details will be given on how improve the situation as I see it in my next article as this one is getting long. Till then, vote, subscribe and shout the article so that all ePakistanis can see this.

20 alliances are needed only when going into an invasion. Otherwise waste of money. Also, black market is something which is being used since I have started playing, everywhere.
gl guys! voted..
me = first sub, btw...lol
thanx nagaprathyush.
@Bozli
well black market is killing our economy that is a fact. And although larger countries might survive we with our limited resources need to avoid it. Secondly about alliances, yes 20 is overkill for our country as we are not in for the invasion but I was just giving a general picture of what will be ideal.
@av khan... as much as your spirit is appreciated your conclusions are slightly off the mark. For the last 3 weeks a team of ePakis headed by Kualkerr has been working on economic issues. This has already caused our tax income to more than triple. We have increased it from 2.5k a few weeks ago to 7.5k yesterday. All steps taken may not be visible to you but we are on the rise. Now when Umer sets up his cabinet, you will see more visible changes.
As to people working outside Pak or with foriegn CS, This is actually better for ePak. The more are citizens produce and earn the better for ePak. I can prove that to you statistically. There are other programs in the pipeline some of which will be implemented very soon.
We have no workers to speak of. Our wages are still same ur food and weapon prices are going up. How is our economy getting better? I would love to know it. Though only improvement I saw within our economic system was our tresury is considerably much fuller.

@av khan,
its a real monetary collapse, which we can't avoid it, unless we have gold to balance pkr value, i try to do some old tricks, but it seems they are all old and its not one man show....
technically speaking, i wont mind people going abroad to earn gold for their training
Umm , I had readed all points clearly , I agree on some and I am also disagree on some points
1+2 Jobs/Work in Pakistan : Problem is that Pakistan needs more resources , and we will get it by conquering regions , that is almost impossible because our population is low and we have very few and weak fighters except some spcecial strong guys .
We have to go to outside countries like Turkey/ONE countries to earn more and maintain gold training .
3: Yes , smuggling must be stopped in Pakistan , for this , we need some lower taxes , even we can give 50% import taxes , 99% import taxes are EXTREMELY HIGH , due to this , people have to do smuggling . I am directly selling items to the market of Pakistan
