Did the PPP govt not know of the existence of illegal SIMS during their 5 year stint ? they knew it but kept their eyes closed the same way MMA govt did during their 4 years stint during Gen M period ?

Today they have awaken....what were they doing those last 5 years.?...making money on dead people bodies.( PPP govt came with this agenda )...if they were sincere, they would have taken such step long time back. Every indicators were in negative during PPP govt 5 year rule, because their most important agenda was to make up for the lost opportunity to make money during Gen M period, made enough money to last another 5 years till the govt of PML N.....

PPP govt was working on 2 agenda... 1) make money... 2) As per international agenda, make this country bankrupt to the extent that it does not need external enemy to destroy the peace & economy....

The subsequent result is for all to see.....
