The over-hyped b-17

@Imran,

This is terrible indeed. Someone has to get down to it. If the lady is correct in claiming that she was mis-treated and ripped-off money by unjust fines, then all investors of Faisal Town and Faisal Hills should stand behind her and show some spine.

In 2017 in USA, a passenger was dragged out of United Airlines flight. There was such a swift and huge reaction from public that the airline had to compensate that passenger $140 million to pacify the whole thing. This shows "charater" of a nation. Do we have that?

His downfall is good or bad for investors ?

Investors made good profit on Faisal Hills files. Shayad Ch. Majeed ko ye baat hazam nahin ho rahi.

Investor to lut gaya iskey apney hathoon.....market bhi dead hai

Anyone who protests gets 5 lac extra fine slapped on their file.

Fines ka koi system samajh hi nahi aa rha, jis ka jitna dil kerta hai fine laga daita hai, koi documentation ya formula nahi hai. Zedam k office mein shoru say hi end customer ko bohat bura treat kia jata hai, even lower management ki gardan mein bhi sarya aa jata hai.

Well observed Nasir Sb.

I think lower management is corrupt. They drag their feet, treat people like garbage on purpose. I heard few days ago that they take RISHWAT too like sarkari offices.

Ch. Majeed needs to wake up and throw these black sheep out of his business offices.

Imran brother, so far he is relying on

'Mujhay Management Achi Nahi Mili ... '

The show goes on ...

( ONNNN sa peechla 15 saaloo ma nahe howa INNNNNN sa 6 maheena baad kasa hoga? (INNNN sa nahe ho paya ga) ).........

Dear experts please give me your two cents on this.

I have a small investment in block C , I intend to keep it for 10-15 years for kids education etc InshaAllah.

I need some cash ( non urgent ) and I noticed that if I sell in block C and move to G , I may get similar plot there with some cash to spare. Do you think it’s advisable or should I keep the plot in C.

Thanks in advance

Zafar sahib, its a good idea but just ensure that the plot must have a possession or nesr to possession in G block (that developement must be going on in your plot)…

King

What good is the world‘s kingship? Why multiply your cares?

It‘s hard to weigh justice

You’d make this more that less.
Don‘t you have enough worries That you seek the world‘s troubles?
What would you do with such a throne As makes you weep night and day?
In a large herd of mules,

The great mule leads the rest ~

A great king of beasts

Is the greatest beast of all.

This world a dog’s tail

Cannot be straightened or mended;
With a black cat‘s body It blackens more With washing.

A kingdom is created

When half men starve and half die; When one man feeds the flesh

Of another to dogs at home.

What would such life mean

That you either kill or die?

Where are your fruits and roses? You keep a garden and kill the bulbul?
Lord, if you grant me

Kingship ofthe world.

I'll hurl it out of home

Like dung on a dunghill.


These couple of living moments I cannot spend in brawls;

Over this pot of cruelty.

Lord. place another lid;

Just give me some flowers

And a lovely sweetheart;

A little garden

On the riverside;

So I may sit on the bank

In the cool shade of a weeping willow And write with cheer

Some pleasing ghazals

Now plead to the beloved‘

Now curse and taunt the Mullah; Praise the cup and the cupbearer To a farmer full of turnips;

Single source or single bidder contracting around the world!!!!

( INNNNNNNN sa nahe ho paya ga, Sirf pupooz, Dumb and dumber, sharmeeli our showbaaz( punjab poultry ka BADSHAH) sa ho paya ga).....

During my life time i had executed two construction contracts as a single source in certain part of planet earth and it all depends upon the priority and urgency of the contract by Contracting Officer and Government.....





SOLE SOURCE

Sole source is a non-competitive purchase or procurement process accomplished after soliciting and negotiating with only one source, so-called sole source, thus limiting Full and Open Competition (FOC). Sole Source is also known as: sole source procurement, sole sourcing, sole-sourced contract, direct sourcing, sole supplier, direct source. No-bid contract is a popular term for what is officially known as a "sole source contract." A sole source contract implies that there is only one person or company that can provide the contractual services needed and that any attempt to obtain bids would only result in one person or company being available to meet the need. It is awarded usually, but not always, by a government after soliciting and negotiating with only one firm. These contracts can be negotiated much more quickly than a typical competitive contract but they are often fraught with suspicion that the company used illegal or immoral means to exclude competitors (usually cronyism or bribery). Nevertheless, U.S. law permits the government to award sole source contracts under specified circumstances (48 CFR Ch. 1, Part 6) but no-bid contracts are illegal under European Union commissioning law.
Urgency is often the rationale for sole source contracts, and cost uncertainty the rationale for cost-plus contracts. They permit the government to get contractors working as quickly as possible. While competitive contracts have been awarded in very short times, such speedy procurements are not easily done and are thus relatively unusual.
Legal reasons for sole source contracts include:
• only one firm has a product that will meet the projects needs or only one firm can do the work;
• the existence of an unusual and compelling urgency;
• for purposes of industrial mobilization or expert services;
• an international agreement;
• sole source is authorized or required by law, e.g., socio-economic programs;
• national security
• the public interest.
Sole Source Evaluation Factors
Like for any purchase performed through procurement methods with Full and Open Competition (FOC), a sole source evaluation will take place, but in a significantly different manner because no comparison will be performed against other prospective providers.

Indeed, the sole source evaluation is limited to the compliance of acquired goods or services to requirements set forth in the solicitation document. Because there is no competition, not only the requester's margin of negotiation is thin, but the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) of the project may be more expensive than if there would have been other competitors.

For these reasons, requesters should review carefully and thoroughly the cost section of the proposal, knowing that such an audit could expand their negotiation margin.

Benefits of Sole Sourcing
As soon as you understand what is sole source, obvious become the benefits. As positive impacts of a shortened acquisition process, benefits of sole source are:

• a reduced decision cycle, i.e. time required to award contracts;
• lowered administrative costs, i.e. procurement process reduced to a minimum;
• prices reflecting the best value;
• better promoted small business participation
• improved delivery of products and services.
When to use Sole Source as a contracting method? Sole Source Prescription
The Competition in Contracting Act (CICA) ensures all contractors to have an
equal chance in responding to solicitation for goods or services.
Because sole source is only used when other procurement methods, namely micro- purchases, small purchases, and competitive solicitation procedures like sealed bids, or competitive proposals, are not applicable or lead to an unrealistic, sole source is a contracting method that is not promoting Full and Open Competition (FOC).

That is the reason why sole source solicitation constitutes a violation of the CICA unless it is justified under one of seven circumstances (FAR 6.302) described in the next section.

Sole Source Justification
Sole source justification should be thoroughly documented.
What is sole source justification? It's the rationale of the decision to use sole source solicitation as a procurement process.

The burden of proof to justify sole source procurement falls to the requester who should prepare a document called Sole Source Justification and Approval (J&A). (SEE ATTACHMENT)

The Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR 6.302, Circumstances permitting other than full and open competition) describes the seven exceptions that can be invoked as sole source justification:

• Competition Requirements (FAR Part 6)
• Other Than Full and Open Competition (FAR Subpart 6.3)
• Circumstances permitting other than full and open competition (FAR 6.302):

FAR 6.302


6.302 Circumstances permitting other than full and open competition.

The following statutory authorities (including applications and limitations) permit contracting without providing for full and open competition. Requirements for justifications to support the use of these authorities are in 6.303.


6.302-1 Only one responsible source and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements.
6.302-2 Unusual and compelling urgency.
6.302-3 Industrial mobilization; engineering, developmental, or research capability; or expert services.
6.302-4 International agreement.
6.302-5 Authorized or required by statute.
6.302-6 National security.
6.302-7 Public interest.

Zafar ullah sab better to switch your plot with fmc same size good location, its more secure than g block as possession and development is already there. In next 4-5 years fmc prices will be higher than than b-17 c block. G block gambles on motorway interchange but fmc already has Better location.

Someone tell the Moron having Repeated Brain Farts that Single Bid stuff is primarily granted to corporates having exclusive capabilities for extreme specilaised jobs such as Defence/Security, Mining/Exploration etc. etc.

It's not to be misused for building Roads which pretty much every jackass can pull off with a half decent machinery and manpower.

*You would take your Ferrari for service to an authorised dealership (single source). When you try to do the same for a Mehran sort thing, with other options available, you have to be a dumb as S to justify that!

May be hard to digest for Abu-Terrian's cheerleader but that's how it is ...

Dear Ilyas, ma brother in arms,

Beautiful poem indeed. Thanks for sharing.

For no relevance at all, let me present a piece from Kenny Roger's 'Gambler' lyrics. You got to listen to it to enjoy the rythem.

Every gambler knows
That the secret to survivin'
Is knowin' what to throw away
And knowin' what to keep
'Cause every hand's a winner
And every hand's a loser
And the best that you can hope for
Is to die in your sleep"
....
You've got to know when to hold 'em
Know when to fold 'em
Know when to walk away
And know when to run
You never count your money
When you're sittin' at the table
There'll be time enough for countin'
When the dealin's done


Thanks brothers

But isn’t FMC already more expensive than C block

No, FMC rates are far less than C Block a 10 marla good location plot can be be get around 65-75 lac, 5 marla around 48-50 lac. I am talking about fully developed possession and near to C1, B1 areas. The area that is near to hills is far more cheaper. As that area is not fully developed yet. If you want to invest for long term than that area can yield better as prices are far lower, 5 marla is around 40 lac, 30x60 is 50-55 lac and 10 marla is 60-65 lac. Tell me your budget so i could guide you better. I have 7 plots in FMC and it has yielded more than 20% in just last few months. But I think there is still juice for next couple of months. Investor is buying these days and there is another hype coming after the Eid in whole B-17 area. For long term its also a very good option.

Thanks Nasir sahab

My budget is around 9-10 millions hopefully if I sell in B17.

Zafar sab buy two 5 marla plots in 600-900 series or 1800 series. There is a Facebook group of fmc you will get price idea. Several dealers are active there.

Or may be one in fmc 3000 series and one in i-16
