The
transport sector has traditionally received one of the largest
share of the Public Sector Development Program allocations in
the successive five year plans, yet the state of transport in
our country is in complete disarray. It is obvious that our
central planners and policy makers have failed miserably in
formulating and implementing sustainable transport strategies.

Transport
is the backbone of the economy of any country.Transport infrastructure
represents, if not the engine, then the wheels of economic activity.
No country can make significant progress without an adequate
transport infrastructure.Investment and management of transport
infrastructure and the role of the State in this sphere needs
to be carefully examined and tailored to meet the specific requirement
of each country.In a developing country like Pakistan, transport
needs heavy investment for expansion, technological upgrading
and replacement of over aged assets. Transport infrastructure
should be managed like a business.

Significantly important leftover issues from the Working
Paper, were not only required to be brought to focus but
are also proposed to be reflected in the Policy document with
particular reference to Planning designing, Implementation,
& Law enforcement point of view. In the context of present
Global trend towards Privatization and de-regulation,
bulk of implementation for different modes of Transport will
have to be under-taken by the
Private sector.

It is the
women of Pakistan who pay back the large foreign loans that we
have taken for development. They pay these loans back from
their unpaid labour and by denying themselves and their
children basic necessities of life such as food, education,
health and entertainment facilities. They are the main
sufferers when their men commit suicide due to unemployment
and poverty or when they become bonded labour to survive.
