ISLAMABAD: Pakistan cannot have bullet trains, even though this was one of the ruling party’s election promises, Khawaja Saad Rafique told the National Assembly on Tuesday.
“When we asked the Chinese about it, they laughed at us. We should consider the 160kmph train under CPEC as a bullet train. We can’t afford an actual bullet train, there’s no market for it,” the railway minister said.
Admitting that their party had faced a lot of criticism over not launching the project, he said that the country didn’t have enough money to build one. “Even if we do, we don’t have such a big range of upper and middle class passengers who will buy tickets.”

Martin is laugh-out-loud funny as a producer desperate to make his dream project, going to any length to cast the hottest action star (Murphy). An outrageous romp through the world of low – very low – budget filmmaking. (Original Title – Bowfinger) – 1999 Universal Studios. All Rights Reserved.
