However, I would like to comment on Japanese cars. Scores of Japanese cars do not have a durable body lately (aluminium versus steel).

blatant lie...

China does not offer much in the way of quality unfortunately.

Another lie

I know from personal experiences, and being in the computing business for over a decade...

Depends on what are you looking for. The most reliable cars are from Toyota i.e. Japanese...Similarly cameras are Canon, Nikon, Sony, Fuji... all Japanese .. locomotives by Alstom, most of electronic stuff is from Japan, Koreas, China, Taiwan etc and Airbus is more reliable than Boeing

Toyota reliable??? Haha U clearly have never driven a german car.

Driven Audi Q5 for many year till 2017
Audi A4 since 2017
Drove VW Phaeton for a year earlier
and driven most of BMWs and Mercz as well.
Still it does not change the fact that Toyota makes the most reliable cars... do you understand what the word reliable means... please check online

Pakistani kids have no idea.. he is mixing reliability with luxury.. that's why I say that we should invest in good education ... because our kids do not know even the basic differences

There is a reason why Toyota is everywhere and it works! German cars are excellent, when they breakdown your pocket takes a massive hit. You will find very old japanese cars still work with one negative aspect their body will rust away which can be dealt with if taken care off. German cars need a lot more work as they get older.

Owned VW Phaeton in US for almost a year ... I got it at a very reasonable price but I had to sell it because it was too expensive to maintain. But it was an engineering marvel and very precision machine.. really great experience but reliability was not that high.

it's the cry of bmw owners who have to spend a lot on their bmw, But they will still drive another bmw because its such a great car.
Its all to do with your preference and willing to dish out for repairs. I have had to spend an obscene amount on my german vehicles. every £/$ spent on a car is £/$ you will never see again!

US helped to build it now they've given a grant to repair/overall it. when giving grants to Pakistan, it is important to go see the the progress otherwise money could and does end up in Switzerland.

remember 70 million dollars given to Pakistan by Michelle Obama for girls education and it promptly vanished in to a blackhole of Marriam Nawaz, the crooked brahmin princess thought Michelle Obama must have meant it was for sharif family girls

Chairman apprised the delegation that Tarbela Hydel Power Station has the singular honour of possessing more than half of the total installed capacity of hydel generation in Pakistan.

So if we had kalabagh and bhasha by now our overall power generation would be more then doubled

LAHORE: The Tarbela Dam is playing a vital role for economic stability and social development of Pakistan by providing water for agriculture, mitigating floods and injecting sizeable quantum of low-cost hydel electricity to the national grid, said Water and Power Development Authority (Wapda) Chairman Muzammil Hussain.

Welcoming a US delegation, he lauded that Tarbela reservoir could still store more than six million acre-feet (MAF) water despite being in the fifth decade of its life.

“At present, the generation capacity of Tarbela Hydel Power Station stands at 4,888MW with the completion of its 4th Extension last year,” he said. “In view of the successful completion of 4th Extension within the stipulated cost and time, the government has decided to implement 5th Extension of the project on a fast-track basis.”




The 5th Extension would add another 1,410MW to the generation capacity of Tarbela hydel power station, he said.

The chairman apprised the delegation that Tarbela hydel power station possessed more than half of the total installed capacity of hydel power in Pakistan.

Briefing on various components of the project, the chairman appreciated the financial support from the US keeping in view construction of Tarbela Dam back in the 1970s and rehabilitation of aging power generating units installed at Tarbela Hydel Power Station.

US involvement in rehabilitating aging units of Tarbela Hydel Power Station helped Wapda in attracting leading financial institutions like the World Bank for implementation of Tarbela 4th and 5th Extension with a cumulative generation capacity of 2,820MW, he added.

The US delegation observed that recent grant from the US of $41 million would extend the useful life of the Tarbela powerhouse by 15-20 years and restore 148MW of power generation capacity.

Turbines? Sensors? PLCs? You will find American tech to be superior here.

Toyota is hands down the most reliable car in the world. Nothing even comes close.
