Partly Facetious : Listing IK's achievements!

"I want you to list The Khan's achievements."
Published February 28, 2020 Updated February 28, 2020 12:00am

"I want you to list The Khan's achievements."

"Control of locusts is certainly not one of his achievements! I mean I am not sure how badly crops have been affected but..."

"That's not his fault, it's a provincial matter."

"He has Jack Of All Trades (JOAT) announcing the farm policy and has an agriculture minister and..."

"JOAT?"

"Jehangir Tareen."

"What? He is no longer The Khan's Ivanka Trump?"

"No, but not yet Bolton either who in case you didn't know has written a tell-all book that incriminates President Trump."

"What about The Buzz, Wasim Akram Plus as per The Khan... Isn't he the chief minister of the largest province and why isn't he dealing with the locusts..."

"He has established a committee to look into the matter."

"You have heard that a horse is a camel designed by a committee?"

"Yes, but The Buzz is following his benefactor - The Khan has task forces and committees and sub committees and he heads them all and I hear meetings take up more than two thirds of his waking day......"

"Waking or working?"

"I ain't getting involved in that debate besides be positive I said."

"OK, the one thing that the country and the world will long remember him for is opening the Kartarpur corridor."

"Agreed."

"Another thing is the tackling of the Indian incursion on 27 February and Pakistan's response."

"Agreed."

"The rest of the positivity is from the lessons he has learned."

"Are you being facetious?"

"No, he has learned that foreign policy is never moral, he has learned that stabilization must precede all attempts to transform the economy..."

"He hasn't learned that stabilisation is also defined as growth not just stifling economic activity..."

"That's why you will never make the finance minister...you see the glass as half empty a finance minister sees it as full..."

"Full of what?"

"I am not taking that bait - besides you don't live abroad either!"

"Grapes are certainly sour."

"Never liked grapes, I am more a banana kind of person, right Rehman Malik!"
