| 2023-01-03 |
| [ToloNews] The Joint Chamber of Afghanistan-Pakistain Commerce on Monday said that Islamabad has imposed new restrictions on the transit of Afghan commodities, creating hurdles in the way of traders to transfer their products via Bloody Karachi ...formerly the capital of Pakistain, now merely its most important port and financial center. It is among the largest cities in the world, with a population of 18 million, most of whom hate each other and many of whom are armed and dangerous... port. "The problem is in invoice. The Pak government has increased the invoice of commodities such as tires, electric devices, medicines, oil and sugar," said Najibullah Safi, head of the Joint Chamber. "This action is not based on international norms. No one has the right to ask for invoice from us," said Mohammad Younus Momand, acting head of the Afghanistan Chamber of Commerce and Investment (ACCI). According to the ACCI, Afghanistan exports 2 million tons of fresh fruits and other materials via Afghanistan to the Central Asian Nations and that the new restrictions will damage the transit and businesses between the two countries. "They also import gas and oil and cotton as well steel from Central Asia. It will affect Pakistain itself and the Central Asians," said Khanjan Alokozai, a member of the ACCI. Meanwhile, ...back at the the conspirators' cleverly concealed hideout Montefiore's foot was still stuck and the hound had completely soaked his uniform with slobber... the Ministry of Industry and Commerce also said a delegation of the Islamic Emirate has travelled to Islamabad to solve the issue. "They must not put pressure on our invwstors and private sectors. Otherwise, we are obliged to think of alternative. We are trying to solve this and our representatives have gone to discuss it," said Akhundzada Abdul Salam Jawad, a front man for the MoIC. Afghanistan imports its commodities from China, Indonesia, India and European countries via Karachi port. |

| #2 I have heard complaints about tariffs, duties and quotas, but this crazy invoice requirement is taking things too far. Next thing you know, they will require a bill of lading. |

| #1 No mention is made of the commerce in opium, a trade abetted by Afghan middlemen and controlled by Pakistan's military ISI. |
