Here on Guam, PAK has competition from both China + Bangladesh + even Myanmar [Burma] as per Personal Sportswear + other.

* ION BHARAT RAKSHAK > DESPERATE TIMES: IRAN OFFERS PAKISTAN 80,000 BARRELS OF OIL ON THREE-MONTH CREDIT.

Pak power "load shedding" has never stopped.

#4  Because of power blackouts, according to the video...and the fequipment is being sold to producers in India and Bangladesh, whose power supplies can be trusted.

I suppose that could be counted as yet another war the brave and clever generals of the Land of the Pure have lost to India and Bangladesh, though it may not occur to them to think in such terms.

#3  In this global economy, the loss of Pakistans textile industry (formerly known as South Carolina's textile industry) , along with the loss of Egypts version will impact prices on your Walmart and Targets and Kohls right here.
Look for higher prices in this category too.

#2  Riots and jihad. Both pay, although on a piecework basis.

#1  I guess that means hundreds of thousands of additional unemployed with nothing to do except grow more poppies. At least the price of drugs will come down a bit.
