CMY replied on Wednesday, June 8, 2011 08:42 PM PST 

Go for China Virona. Best China Virona will cost Rs 85 to 115 per SQ ft.

Granite has much better finish is much stronger and cost 300 to 3000 per sq ft.

For a normal house Master should do fine. For a luxury house Porta will be needed. You will have to go to a showroom to check
prices as there is huge price difference between each style of fitting etc.

Question: Which investment is better: DHA plot vs gold?

Thanks

EVEN replied on Tuesday, June 7, 2011 06:11 PM PST 

Gold
Up-side
1. Price is rising v qucikly, at this trend your invested amount will become double (100% profit) after about 4 years.
2. it is just cash in hand.
3. Lose ?? never
4. Pay Zakat and get reward in next life as well.
Down-side
1. Risk to keep it at home (never) even in lockers at banks.
DHA and likewise
up-side
1. Luckly! If you buy a file and get plot at v good
location then profit would be many-fold.
2. No fear of theft.
Down-side
1. Lose definitely exists.
2. May not get much profit.
3. Long period investment.
4. Not cash in hand, you have to struggle while saling even.

Isloo replied on Tuesday, June 7, 2011 10:18 PM PST 

Gold is good as long as economies are not recovering...

I would suggest to diversify and keeping strong currencies like YEN or FRANC in lockers besides Gold if you have seen their trends in last 5 years,

Yes, you have a risk of losing commodities, but with property, you have to make effort to sell off...As long as this government is there, I cant see much improvement because they continue policies from bad to worse..

Muhammad Nasir Abbas replied on Thursday, June 9, 2011 04:13 AM PST 

Dear Tufail Sahib,

I shall also favour GOLD versus DHA plot.

However, you can also consider SILVER for investment and compare Silver versus GOLD.

Additional problem with silver is the quantity. If you purchase 1 million rupee gold, you can keep it even in pocket (less than a 1/4 Kg) but in case of Silver it will be more than 9Kg (problem???).

Decision is yours but please pay zakat 2.5% on whatever you have / or purchase and Allah shall reward manifold (atleast 10 times).

Nearly one month before, I selected Silver (instead of GOLD) for investing some amount.

Thanks & Best Regards,

masifjamil replied on Thursday, June 9, 2011 02:41 PM PST 

My option is Engro TFC Certificates.

The yield is 14.50% per annum, profit payable on semi-annual basis directly into your account. profit is guaranteed. No collection / sale/ purchase tension..
No risk of losing money and loss.
RISK: Principal amount is invested for three years and in case of pre - mature en-cashment, 2% penalty charges are payable.

Ali Khan replied on Friday, June 10, 2011 01:18 PM PST 

Dear Masifjamil,

AOA

1 Are Engro certifcates still available and from where I can buy these?

2 Any idea if we can invest into gold certifcates via banks etc?

Subscription is open from June 01, 2011 and will close on August 31, 2011. Please ask your Bank for the form and fill it, if you like to invest. I have no idea about the gold certificates.

Sorry for posting off topic but it might be of interest for many others.

With summer vactions approached i was looking for some activity club like thing for my Kids. Basically i am not looking for very expensive place just a place to keep my kids busy with physical and creative activities and keeping them away from Computer and TV.

Usually summer camps works with Books that i'm not interested in.

Along with any club/school/project of this nature If you guys can share ideas about activities for kids 4-6 years it would very helpful.

When DHA Phase 6/7 will get Gas Supply ?

I asked the above question to my friend who is a senior officer in SNGPL. His reply was as following

“It is very difficult to grant new domestic consumers connections and the situation is getting acute as the time passes. Domestic gas production will fall from the current 4 billion cubic feet per day (cfd) to 2 billion cfd by 2015. Demand, on the other hand, will rise to 8 billion cfd by that time, creating a 6 billion cfd shortfall. It implies after 4-5 years the gas would be available either only for Industrial sector and CNG Stations consumption or for the domestic consumers. Shutting down of industries and the CNG station for almost 2 days per week are the signs which have started to appear.
If every project currently being planned – including a pipeline from Iran, large offshore gas import terminals, and even the politically dicey pipeline from Turkmenistan that passes through Afghanistan – were to be completed on time and deliver exactly as much gas as expected, the country will still be short of 2 billion cfd in 2020.”

I think, the new housing societies which are being developed will face difficulties or will involve fair amount of time(1-3 years) in getting gas connections as the gap between supply and demand is widening day by day.

Is DHA strong enough to get the gas supply any time sooner for its residents…?

Asif replied on Tuesday, June 7, 2011 02:16 PM PST 

Pakistan is probably one of very few countries in developing world which provides pipeline gas to its citizens. Piped gas is not available in India, Sri Lanka and other countries of teh region. Even middle east which is much more rich in gas resources supply gas to its consumers in cylinders.

It is shortsightedness of our previous leaders that piped gas was provided to consumers which has more probability of leakages / wastage. Our country and citizens have to wake up and start utilizing this resource more efficiently. One suggestion can be to stop providing piped gas to domestic consumers and ask consumers to use gas cylinders. It may look strange but this is probably the only way we can survive gas shortages.

AK replied on Tuesday, June 7, 2011 07:55 PM PST 

What about using geyser on gal cylinders? Is that feasible?

masifjamil replied on Wednesday, June 8, 2011 04:26 PM PST 

Thanks Asif for providing us useful information. Can you put some light on power / gas tariff in other countries as well??

Dr. M. Salman Butt. replied on Friday, June 10, 2011 12:03 AM PST 

I have lived in Egypt for a few years and there they used geysers which work with gas cylinders. I am sure we can do the same Pakistan.

Dr. M. Salman Butt. K.S.A replied on Friday, June 10, 2011 12:09 AM PST 

I am sure we can do the same 'in' Pakistan.
