Imran Sherpao in his letter published in TNS on June 01, 1997 missed out in his arithmetic. If the government is planning to axe THREE million employees, then the payment at Rs 6000 per month comes to eighteen BILLION and not eighteen million.
If that is so, then the government will save Rs 216 Billion per year, which comes to over FIVE billion dollars or nearly half of the total import bill. WOW! ! ! What is the Premier waiting for? Sack them now. Most of the three million must be either ghost workers, political appointees, idlers, pen-pushers, etc, etc.
