Suggestion to the govt to control Covid-19 spread

[optimistic]

I would like to use this forum to post the following suggestion to the govt of Pakistan.

Govt should announce a special gift package for all the families to receive some money If they stay Covid free for the next 2-3 months (5-10K cash). Of course you still need to come up with a strategy to know how to determine If a family really stayed Covid free as there could still be untraced cases but nevertheless the details could be sorted out in several ways.

The point is alongside "Danda", offering something lucrative like this can help keeping people grounded and encouraging them to avoid unnecessary movement. Let me know your thoughts and suggestions, I hope this thread can serve a good purpose and reach out to the govt.

The idea of making humans do something in hope of getting a gift, is the purest and most authentic way to make people follow something... From Islam till raising kids, this method has been used. Islam makes us fear Hell due to disobedience and gives us good news of Heaven if we obeyed. Kids do their homeworks and all other things in hope of getting gifts from parents... this goes in every form of life... True and good approach..

BUT... Can we do it in Pakistan? I dont think so dear... Bitter reality is that when JUGAAD is in the blood of most people who would love to take shortcut to do things, cheat wherever possible and make money regardless of right or wrong way... Such methods will be only end up having false claims from most of people.. and if not paid as advertised, millions of videos on social media will surface saying how they got cheated by govt...

Fact of the matter is.. If a person is not following precautions to keep his/her own life and lives of people around them, what amount of money will make them value their own lives?

I understand your point but 10K (60usd / 55 Euro) is really not huge amount given the severity of this crisis, its roughly 2 billion Usd considering 40million families. You do need bailout packages for awam in such situation. And think about it the faster the cases rise the more stressed your medical system would become and hence the spending by the govt.

There is few problems for Pakistan
No 1 No money high loans Pmln and ppp been looting past 40 years while public was sleeping, no education no protest when things go wrong and corruption is no problem for Pmln and ppp voters.

No 2 pakistan tax collection is poor, intuitions are weak and Corrupt, no one wants to do any work.

No 3 only corrupt people want to come in politics, parliament and senate is full of smugglers, money launders, land mafia, sugar mafia, import is high and export is low.

No 4 human development has been very poor past 70 years just commission base projects like motorway, metro, orange train, no dams, schools, hospitals, no returns just corrupt officers sitting in all government departments.

The only good thing happened to Pakistan is Imran Khan but it’s taken 23 years struggle and now he has no majority in Parliament and senate. Judges are corrupt and media is corrupt all doing daily planning and propaganda against him because Zardari and Sharif have made corrupt and haraam eating habits. Even rich countries are struggling to give home staying packaged and gifts. Pakistan needs 30 years or more leader like Imran Khan and presidential system before it’s in goods position to give anything or stand up on its legs.
At the moment pakistan is in intensive care without any good doctors and medicine or working ventilators.

Actually this is not true and one of the reasons for my suggestion. Our awam doesn't value their life nor understand the severity of situation. But they may abide by the rules when they see something profitable for them in it. Ofc you need danda in parallel, justlike your first example, you need both the fear and reward.

The other thing is that you don't need to really choose. If you have around 2 billion dollar, you can accommodate almost all families with the reward. Ofc there are some more details to discuss as to how you make your offer more convincing. And keep in mind you dont expect everyone to follow, but even if 80% people comply, you should consider it success.

You said 80%.. i would say even 50% followed in Pakistan, it would be a success. But brother our nation has an appetite of not following law and rules. From top till bottom, same situation. It would need very stringent actions and plan to enforce such thing. As compensation of this, Govt could award people for sure.. But knowing the challenges Pakistan's economy is facing, it is quite doubtful.

One more point to think over is, that non of the world's leading economies is so far able to compensate people on such a big scale, imagine how Pakistan can bear such huge burden with crippling economy and pile of debts to pay back.

But the idea you posted, in a perfect situation would have been really good. No doubt about that.

Actually, I live in Germany, and Germany and several other EU countries have a strong social welfare system where they already compensate people who lost their jobs fully or partially upto 65% of their incomes (with a roof of upto 1800euro). This is alreafy a huge amount. On top as a token of thanks for showing cooperation and patience during Corona crisis govt has announced 300 euro per kid for every family. So, there are such ideas already in place. Over all Germany is planning a package of 130billion euro to reboot their economy.

Thanks for sharing the info brother. As i said in my message too, that the idea is no doubt very good. But my whole doubt is on Pakistani nation's abidance by the rule.. Here everyone wants free rewards for no effort put forth. Thats our problem.

On top of everything, Germany doesnt face the economic challenges that Pakistan has. With crippled economical situation, huge loans to pay and all the crises at hand.. The Ehsas Prog is a wonderful initiative taken by Govt in such tough times.. That money is also taken out of same economic situation.. I believe Govt is doing what best they can in given situation for the welfare of people, specially poor people.. but we do need much much much more to be done. this is just a good step towards many expected ..
