1. well there are reasons..saudi arabia became rich because of its oil..its wealth is whats keeping the country strong,without oil they would'nt be where they are today as one of the richest countries in the world..also politics..they dont care about there brothers ...they dont care about any1 else apart from how much money there going 2 get ..i think it is ridicolous..$125 a barrel...saudi arabia dont want 2 give away free oil becuse then every other neighbouring country will want it...with a low oil rate,which is non renewable they will not do this unless money is going 2 there government..
2. dude... this is complicated you won't believe me if i told you that poverty in Saudi Arabia is increasing even though oil prices increasing either, yes there are so many poor Saudis. So please don't ever consider Saudi Arabia as a wealthy country can help others. anyway we consider Pakistan one of the closer friends to us and we won't hesitate to help if something happened.
3. Why dousnt Pakistan help itself instead of begging others for help? Take responsability for your own country and stop dumping your citizens on everyone else. Stop having 9 kids a household when you can't even afford 1 child.
4. Well Erwine, it's not that simple I guess. Firstly, there are many other reasons why Pakistan's economy is declining in the current scenario. Surely rising oil prices are to be blamed also but we can't expect the Saudis to lend a helping hand by cutting down their 'take' on oil profits. Money has a funny way of shaping priorities... And to the guy talking about Pakistan dumping its people in other countries, I'm sure you must be aware that Pakistanis are hired FROM Pakistan to work in Saudi Arabia BY Saudi companies, because Saudi Arabia DOES NOT have the skilled labour needed to, quite honestly, run the country.
5. Why do you think your government has the right to always hold out their hands and ask for money from the KSA? Why don't you start to solve your own problems? Why don't your government is spending less on armaments and fighter plans and try to help its people? Why no one has ever thanked the KSA who helped your country so many times?........................
6. First, I would like to mention that I am a Pakistani. Secondly, why are you asking this question? Why cannot we take care of our own problems? Why should Saudi Arabia subsidize Pakistan only and not the rest of the world? Your reasoning of losing the 4 billion $ deal and other reasons of being militarily strong etc are all hog wash. No body in Pakistan is dying so stop the bullshit. The people in Pakistan keep electing thieves and the expect others to help them. Why? Get rid of corruption and establish good systems, learn to respect others and things will get better. As a nation we need to set our priorities right, friends like Saudi Arabia, who has always held Pakistan in high esteem, will otherwise slowly walk away from us.
