I forwarded the NPP document prepared by a committee and presented at the Foundation Institute sometime back to a friend. I was there at the gathering. His main criticism is that so far no constructive policy programme or manifesto from NPP has been published, analyzing the country's current economic and other problems, and how a future NPP government is going to address them. Have you got such a manifesto detailing your policy so that people can decide on this why they should vote for NPP?
What does NPP have to say about import restrictions? For example, take the local tile oligopoly which makes a fortune by lobbying and imposing various import restrictions. A 2*2 tile which could have been sold for Rs 500 is sold at Rs 1500++ with import controls/red tape, duty and taxes in place. Just to point out that tiles add low value locally and job creation is not at all significant. Also there is no quality issues with imports as they are brought from countries that sell to the most developed countries in the world. I am pointing above facts as lot of lies are spread by the local oligarcs using media, etc to make super profits without competing against imports. I would like to hear NPP's policy with regards to import restrictions and controls.
Have you started 14000 village committee formation and what is the progress of it.
