police is a huge institution, and second/first most corrupt. anyway the point I was trying to make is that we should focus on developing law enforcing agencies rather than military.
P.S. Pakistan army has no aggressive designs, we dont require to concur any country/land. therefore, it is quite logically to have a small army, especially in terms of infantry units.
call it a "reasonable size".
The bold part is the and should be the point that you should be making. With less corruption, more money would be available for modernizing the police & other para military forces. I wonder why don't we hear such views related to the police about the Rangers or Frontier Corps, reason being they are run my military officers. Thus it may give you an idea who are the ones which need more disciplining. You reduce / end corruption, billions will be with you with which you can do anything for the country without reducing the army, rather army can be modernized by having more money and the teeth to tail ratio with some restructuring and addition of force multiplier platforms.
Plus, we may not be having offensive designs as a country, but then again we have to see someone has 80% of its armed forces, all its offensive strike corps and other majority of assets pointed at us, thus you need a reasonable army to take care of such threat. yeah, if you guys come into power, ask the one pointing such huge military at us, to have CBMs and both should reduce their armies against each other, then you can achieve your dream of reducing the army size otherwise no way your wish will be granted.
But, yeah, do tell your leader, when he comes into power, reduce corruption, get more taxes from the rich and those who don't give them, get agri income taxed, reduce PSEs corruption, he will be having atleast 15B+ US$$s at his disposal, with which he can do wonders for the country. And yeah do tell him to improve the teeth to tail ratio of the army and add force multipliers, which will take less manpower.
