Hi, Shehzad.I am from India. I have watched many of your podcasts in last few months. I enjoyed watching few podcasts even when I was not really interested in the topic! When I tried to find reason for that the answer I got is-it is somewhat rare to find person with very good common sense along with good intelligence,good logical mind and who is also concerned about suffering of others. So when I find such a person I enjoy his company even if I am not interested in the topic.Thanks for the podcasts. Please keep on doing the good work.
Suneel is a class fellow and friend from LUMS and is as real as they come. Safe to say he is still the same as he was 20 years ago. Keep up the great work. Pak Wheels are the only car videos I enjoy watching.
Suneel Munj is a simple yet forward person, I like his can-do attitude, he's a guy anyone would love to sit down and have a chat with. Plus I disagree with a lot of the comments on him being opinionated, I think if you ever have a discussion with him, he'd be more than glad to give you space to talk, acknowledge things in a certain context and associate respectfully. All in all, a great podcast once again, Mr. Suneel is a remarkable guy, and so are you Shahzad. Hats off.
he was just clearing up misconceptions nothing wrong,an indian shouldnt be talking about religious things tho looking at extremism and dangay in your country.
I may not be able to explain it 100% but, this interview seemed like an example of "by the book guy" vs "pure on the ground business knowing guy". Sunil Manj is like, "beta, I tell you how the real world works".
I noticed a similarity between Delhi and Lahore. These people speak tap tap tap tap....very rapidly. We just can't cop up being Gujaratis. We speak somewhat calmly and allows others also to speak and listen them peacefully. Shanti se bolna aur sunana.
An eye opening podcast.... suneel's words have me revaluating my whole world view, how can i a agree so much with someone who is capable of so much bongi.
The biggest irony is the person who is sitting at the top in pakistan would spew hate against India But would buy a Range Rover even though range rover is owned by an Indian Company
I agree with Suneel Munj. We live in a Capitalist world, and the people who run it, engineer ways to make money by exploitation. One example is that in 1950s and 60s when the Car sale boom hit the US, the big car production companies bought the public transport companies, which ran the trams and metro buses, and shut them down. Nobody did anything to stop it. In Pakistan there are easy and far cheaper ways to make such maneuvers. Simply buy the head of the government.
Very difficult to listen to him. He thinks he knows everything ! Well. He doesn’t. The best thing he can do for his own brand is not to represent it himself. Excruciating to listen to him talk.
Suneel bhai, virus and diseases mechanism works the same way as the safety features in cars and working of cars, we are matters on one every basic level. Your doing great job.
In India Swift is about 6 to 10 lakhs and is a very successful car.... Even if i triple the price because 1Rupee in India is like 3 rupees in Pakistan, then i would be getting 18 to 30 lakh rupees.... But When he said 50 lakh ki milti hai i was like 50 lakh me Swift to koi pagal hi lega.... and this made me realise how expensive Pakistan is.... News me suna tha mehangai hai Pakistan me lekin itni mehangai hogi ye nahi pta tha.....
@@minamulhaq According to google Petrol in Pakistan is 323 and in New Delhi it is 326 So the difference is very very very very low while when it comes to Car prices, Pakistan is seriously very Expensive.
@@minamulhaqIn India petrol is taxed to invest in mass public transport which expands economic opportunities for those that cannot afford a personalized mode of transport. What is it used in Pakistan for?
Don’t wanna sound negative Sheikh Saab trying his best to mold entrepreneurial talk towards siyasi guftago. Good luck Shehzad just keep on doing your great work.
The problem with us South Asians is that we get into political and social activism and don’t stick to our profession. Why should he dismiss Covid vaccines? Just because his sales were impacted, he linked his religion to it. This is how we justify our religious stance: if I engage in 10 things against my religion, I will keep quiet. If I do one thing that somehow aligns with our religion in some way, I will drum about it, to show how devout I am.
@surajpingle7670 - not as much as muslims but yes, some hindus do this. Muslims almost always do it. When you invoke inshallah and mashallah in every sentence, you are prone to being more religious than others.
Pakistan should allow import of 🇮🇳n cars and bikes even 2nd hand instead of importing from china/Japan/UAE..it will save money and bring best vehicles in Pakistan ..govt can earn on import tax (JUST Last 6 month import 1.6 billion dollar 💵 seems 🇵🇰 is in econ. sucide 💣 r mode) -Normal 🇮🇳 citizen's observation
I have seen Suneel Munj several times now on different podcasts & I have observed that he rarely gives straight answers to the questions being asked. He deviates from the topic often, makes illogical arguments, talks as if he knows everything, but in reality comes across as overconfident & delusional. For example, when he talks about why people send remittances to Pakistan. Suneel says that they send remittance back to Pakistan because they feel that Pakistan is a land of opportunities. The reality is that their families need that money desperately to get that financial support. It has nothing to do with love for their country. People come back because they do labor jobs & once they make enough money, they come back because they can’t stay in gulf forever without any citizenship rights or property buying rights. Plus at some point they want to stay with their families. Suneel Munj makes a completely illogical & delusional argument in the podcast. Don’t even get me started on his vaccine stance & not being allowed to vote stance. So ridiculous.
Well about the "Sell it for me" service. Its pathetic. - Their team will trick you into lowering your demand. - They don't handle the paper work as they claim they do.
Suneel is very correct. In USA we have families of two but have 3 cars in house. In my family we are 5 but we have 6 cars. One is big SUV to go out all together.
That school bus idea is already implemented by Peshawar Model School and that too 20 years back. The main reason of the success of that school was ke unki bus Peshawar ke har gali ke konay tak jaati thi.
My brother is a automotive geek and I remember I asked him back in 2009 who is someone he look upto and guess what whose name he took 😉 SUNEEL MUNJ. Amazing podcast worth watching ❤
I am not aware of Pakistan day to day working but this gentleman being interviewed looks very opiniated and a little deliusioned and somewhat unwise. I have seen good personalities in previous episods.
Shazad bhai Sunil is a business man and he is absolutely right, from business point of our government responsibllity is to facilitate the businesses and not be a hindrance. Our government creates problems for businesses.
suneel bhai's admiration for Shahzad bhai was epic.... my two favorites of current time in one place... Suneel bhai's knows his stuff and Shahzad bhai is maestro at what he does...
Love your discussions on how to improve Pakistan... some of these lessons apply to pretty much every developing nation, thats why you see our friends and even enemies lurking here... lol
Which service are you talking about? If you are talking about car first then as a Pakistani, I must agree with what he says because these car buying startups criminally undervalued used cars and there was literally no point to sale the car to them at a below market-standard rate when you could get a way higher rate by posting the ad online as he mentioned.
@@shapackgaming4629 online car selling ...we have olx, zoom, cardekho, cars24, so on.....i dint get what is extraordinary in this ..why to take his poscast..
Dear Shahzad How are you doing? Masha Allah you are looking quite smart now! Keep up the good work of conducting very interesting and informative pod casts! May Allah Subhanahu Talah grant you success in your future endeavours.
Suneel is generous, he forgot to add burials and road accidents in the list of 'no service' to non-filers. We need such minds to make Pakistan come on top of the World!
As always , zabardast !! Pakistan me EV-Bikes ke barey me wese kuch discussion miss hoi , Pakistan ke tanazur main EV-bikes zyada relevent hen , EV-car ki nisbat.
Some Indian in the comment said Pakistanis like to buy Land Rover, blah blah blah... first of all if you see our Northern area videos we only use Jeep, and Toyota land cruiser etc, no one uses Land Rover, we used to use Land Rover before the Cruiser came along. Secondly, Tata may own Land Rover, but its stil not an India company, the top designers, engineers, marketers, etc are all European, British etc and it will remain an English brand. The only reason TATA owns it is because TATA made a lot of money selling garbage inside India when Indian politicians prevented foreign makers to sell or make in India... So no need to brag, this is not an Indian company, and there is a segement in society that buys them only to drive within the city to malls etc.... Its very ironic Land Rover got sold when so many new designs were on the horizon, with newer technologies, but here in the US, its still not considered reliable, still cannot compete with a Lexus or Toyota etc....
What are you even Bragging about. Even if Tata sells garbage in it's net worth is still more than the GDP of Pakistan. You Don't have any international standing in the world as evident by your 4th weakest passport in the world and a PKR currency which is worse than even toilet paper. So Pakistanis should never talk of reliability and quality. You guys are so incompetent that you had to sell your Washington embassy because u couldn't pay your diplomats. The only achievement you have is having successfully begged IMF record 23 times
@@ Shezad. Good to see this podcast featuring SM. I had written a letter to SM for reviewing my cars. Please i request you to ask SM to atleast reply to my letter.
Gotta say that Suneel has probably the most controversial views among all the guests on the podcast. Specially the views regarding vaccines and women not wearing hijab are really disappointing.
Suneel is wrong that everyone that leaves Pakistan eventually returns. Only labour class that go to Gulf countries return because Gulf countries do not give citizenship. If mayor of London was born in London, then it us because his parents born in Pakistan did not return. In any case, even if you go by his theory that they return after 40 years adter amassing huge savings, how does that make Pakistan a land of opportunity? They went abroad to earn because for them opportunity to earn in Pakistan did not exist.
Income tax is immoral. Income tax is slavery. If someone is earning money then consumption of that money, most likely, will also happen sales tax is on consumption while income tax is on labour.
1:31:55 Correction: Pakistan government cricket par paisa nahi lagati balke pcb khud hi apna revenue banati hai but agar yeh bat kar rahe hai keh government home tours par tax subsidy deti hai toh baat thek hai
His comments about mask and vaccines are pretty weird. If one should only use those things that either we are born with or explicitly commanded by Allah, then in which surah has Allah commanded to use cars?
It is a wonderful interview, was really looking forward to it. Just a little advice for LUMS alumni, stop flaunting the tag all the time. It is a very good university but so are IBA, UET, NUST, GIKI and FAST. This pyramid scheme of alumni and indirect marketing of a particular university should stop! (P.S. this is just a general comment not pointed specifically at sheheryar or sunil, i admire both of them :) )
Not saying Shehzad is a person without critical thinking, but he could have prepared better to ask good questions. I noticed there were so many instances where he could have brilliant questions related to automobile industry, but he was focusing more on morality and ethical dilemmas!!
The reason many people choose not to come back and live the rest of their lives abroad is because there is an infrastructure that caters to them unlike in pakistan. And those who come back at a later stage in their life want to spend that enormous amount of money (enormous due to exchange rate) with their family and spend what little time they have left alive with their entire khandaan
If you actually look at price of car in dollar terms, it is depreciating. Because our currency depreciates faster then what the car depreciates at, it seems as if car is appreciating .
Sunil sir ne khudne ne bola hai ki vo rojana saari cars paani se wash karte hai(Honest Hour Podcast) jaha saaf paani ke liye log mar rahe hai, waha ye roj water waste karte hai, aur bas saari duniya ko gyaan Dene mein Sunil sir sabse uper hai, inse koi water waste ke baare mein question kyu nahi karta.
Salam, interesting talk. Suneel bhai might be from lums but he talks like someone from Lahore school of economics 😅 (I graduated from there as well btw) I like his old school take on things.
@@Health-Blitz Thank you for the response. At times I wonder how the subcontinent would have fared had India evolved organically, without any external influence. I guess we will never know. :(
@1:16:10 Sunil is wrong here. Only labour class from middle east or those who fail to apply immigration from middle east are come back to Pakistan. Majority of Pakistanis from other countries including labour don't comeback to Pakistan. As far as remittance is concerned to wo apne ghar walo k liye send kerte hai.
These guys are delusional. Pak doesn't export engineers or high skill people. Go to gulf and you'll see them mostly working as labour, taxi drivers etc. You see the way they get treated and everything gets clear
@@108gi5 Yes, majority of labour goes to middle east but Pakistan do export professional to other countries. USA, Europe, Australia and canada are prime examples.
@mohjq yeah right I believe you brother. Pakistan is renowned for exporting skilled professionals to the west. Whatever floats your boat buddy, I believe you
@@108gi5 not renowned but something is better than nothing . Aus, Canada, USA, UK and other countries in Europe are prime example of migration for Pakistani professional. Yes, Chances of improvement always be there .
1995 ke andar Pakistan petrol price.. 7 ruppee per liter tha... Aur india me 1995 me petrol price tha 15 rs liter... Aaj india me petrol 98 rupye liter hai..
Sunil Munj on the other side is opposing precautionary measures like Corona Virus vaccines and on the other side he is emphasising on things like air bags. Sab maya hai
The guy is in an elitist bubble. Most developing countries have low filing rates of direct income tax. It's one thing to blame the wealthy who out-maneuver the system into not paying their tax, and hence say that the system itself needs to improve on tax collection. But saying a citizen is not entitled to even getting a life-saving vaccine shot if they're not paying direct income tax (btw indirect tax rates are already higher in developing countries compared to developed countries), reeks of absolute elitism. Similarly, his views about stubble burning by farmers are problematic. Suneel saab thinks a small farmer should be fined for burning stubble, but a 30-year old car shouldn't be banned from driving, because somehow someone owning a car has more valid needs than a farmer who doesn't even earn enough to afford a 30-year old car? There's a distinction that needs to drawn between rich and poor.
I do think he’s away from contemporary middle class dispositions and agree that he’s comfortable within that bubble but I think looking at his business listing and publicly accessible data, he’s good at running HIS business.
@@PrateekBagga No qualms on that. Pretty sure he's hustled a lot himself. My objection is specifically towards his take on govt policies like tax collection.
Sunil sahab has superiority complex that he is a "tax filer" and contribution to the economy. When in reality, non tax filers are the real contributors of the society, as they are double taxed almost everywhere, and can't even adjust their WHT.
@@an_orange8911 umm I didn't mean that. My point is that the economically backward sections of society who legit don't make enough income to qualify for paying direct income tax, should not be ostracized from basic amenities like a life-saving vaccine. That particular comment reeks of elitism.
