Did pretty well in 2019 compared to last year. Pandemic caused much of this loss. They are in good hands, might get out of this trauma soon.

Please don't just blame PIA. There are hundreds of politicians who get free ticket from PIa. Then there are kids of these politicians and many other VIPs who get free tickets. PIA doesn't get money from govt for these expenditures. How are they suppose to earn money when many consider PIA tickets as freebies.

If we sale just PIA, Steel mills and Railway, then we may can build dams and infrastructure without imposing any new taxes, but problem is that all political parties now including PTI workers got job in them so public have to pay the price, no matter what they will never privatized.

Profit is always calculated by Net figures and not gross. Same fleet with shrunked network, this all not true.
