  • Why Pakistan Needs a Car Policy?
    PIDE KNOWLEDGE BRIEF No. 2021:22 February 15 Why Pakistan Needs A Car Policy? Hafeez-ur-Rehman Hadi, Research Fellow, Pakistan Institute of Development Economics, Islamabad. “Cities have the capability of providing something for everybody, only because, and only when, they are created by everybody.” ― Jane Jacobs Cities are the people, their activities, and the mobility people exercise. These cities, in themselves, provide the engines of growth for countries. Cities need to allow freedom and facilitate mobility; and not restrict. Equitable service delivery and access to city services ensure a robust economic activity and city growth; and, contrary, clique access to these facilities hinders growth. Mobility in Pakistan is one such exercise that has been usurped by the car-owners in the garb of gentrification, road infrastructure development, and converting public spaces into parking spaces. During past decades, the rate of car ownership in Pakistan has been on the rise. To facilitate the car owners, cities’ administrations often try to provide a robust infrastructure of roads so that the smooth flow of traffic can be ensured, disregarding the non-motorised or public transport mobility. The road infrastructure, therefore, makes the largest part of the development budget in Pakistan. The problem in doing this is the aggravated demand for new cars. When new roads are built, they seamlessly facilitate cars, and travellers find it easy to own a car for traveling to homes, schools, offices, and city centres. This article looks at the rising car ownership and facilitated road infrastructure by city authorities. We maintain that a large portion of a city or provincial finance is routed to road infrastructure.

  • International Trends in 4IR Mobility
    International Trends in 4IR Mobility October 2020 Funded by In association with FOREWORD BY FCDO The world faces a number of linked challenges: rapid urbanisation; rising urban inequalities and poverty; climate change and natural resource depletion. Sustainable design and management of cities is vital to efficient, durable urban growth and development. Albert Einstein said: “We cannot solve our problems with the same level of thinking that created them”. So in the spirit of looking at the challenge through a different lens, the UK identified the need to support the growth of smart cities through the global Future Cities programme. It was officially launched in South Africa in February 2020, working with 3 partner cities: Cape Town, Johannesburg and eThekwini/Durban. This programme helps deliver against the UK’s commitments to support implementation of the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDG), most notably SDG 11 to “make cities and human settlements inclusive, safe, resilient, and sustainable” and SDG 9 to “Build resilient infrastructure”. And it supports further our commitment to a clean, resilient & inclusive recovery in a post-Covid world. We are proud of the vibrancy and dynamism of UK industry and see it as a key driver for innovation. We work closely with the private sector to unlock private and public investment in energy, infrastructure and urban development in order to drive the positive change we want to see. The Future Cities programme is about: “An approach to planning the growth of cities that increases levels of productivity, generates sustainable wealth, helps alleviate poverty, addresses gender inequality, increases quality of life for all societal groups, allows more people to live in an existing urban area, improves resilience, minimises any negative impacts on the environment and proactively involves the city’s citizens and businesses in the process.

    GIZ TraCS | Advancing Climate Strategies in Rapidly Motorising Countries Ride Hailing Survey: Usage of App-Based Mobility Services in Nairobi, Kenya Technical Report 2020 Prepared by PARS Research Authors: Benson Weru Jane Mugo Disclaimer The findings, interpretations and conclusions expressed in this document are based on information gathered by GIZ and its consultants, partners and contributors. GIZ does not, however, guarantee the accuracy or completeness of information in this document, and cannot be held responsible for any errors, omissions or losses which emerge from its use. Project Background The Advancing Transport Climate Strategies (TraCS) project is implemented by the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) and funded through the International Climate Initiative of the German Ministry for the Environment, Nature Conservation, and Nuclear Safety (BMU). Its objective is to enable policy makers in partner countries (Vietnam, Kenya and Morocco) to specify the contribution of the transport sector to their respective Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) and Longterm Low Greenhouse Gas Emission Development Strategies (LTS). In addition, detailed knowledge on mitigation potential can lead to raising the level of the countries’ ambitions. TraCS supports ministries of environment and transport and other relevant authorities in systematically assessing GHG emissions in the transport sector and calculating emission reduction potential through the development of scenarios. TraCS also assists with the development and implementation of associated climate policy measures. At the international level, TraCS organises active exchanges between implementing partners, technical experts, and donor organisations to enhance methodological coherence in emission quantification in the transport sector. CHANGING TRANSPORT Facilitating climate actions in mobility GIZ works on changing transport towards a sustainable pathway and facilitating climate actions in mobility.

    Research Summary May 04, 2020 Today's Topics: LTC, RCM, SWVL, INTC Focus Research Key Revisions LTC - ALERT: 1Q20 Largely in Line; Initial COVID-19 Impact Better than Feared Jordan Sadler - (917) 368-2280 - [email protected] LTC’s 1Q20 report was largely steady, with FFO falling in line with consensus and a handful of transaction activity that had been previously announced, including: a $13.5M SNF acquisition; the $72M sale of the remaining Preferred Care assets; and the repurchase of ~615k/shs under LTC’s repurchase program before the program was terminated. The Company also disclosed the initial impact from COVID-19 on its portfolio, as LTC collected 94%+ of its contractual April rent. LTC did not disclose the operational impact on its portfolio from the pandemic and also did not disclose the prevalence of COVID-19 in its facilities; however, we think the percent of April rent collected could temper fear surrounding SNFs (57% of revenues) and we suspect the stock could outperform its healthcare peers in today’s trading.

  • Key Challenges to Sharing Economy in South Asia
    KEY CHALLENGES TO SHARING ECONOMY IN SOUTH ASIA A Pakistani motorbike case MASTER THESIS Zarish Zafar Student no. 105351 Supervisor: Qiqi Jiang Cand. Merc. International Marketing and Management (IMM) Date of submission: 12th May 2020 | No. characters: 180.079 (80 pages) Page | 0 ABSTRACT Culture plays an important role in innovation performance and economic creativity of a society. Considering that sharing economy is a product of innovation, culture becomes an inherited force capable of advancing or deterring behavior towards innovation. Therefore, the aim of this study is to explore the effect of cultural dimensions and their impact on the establishment and growth of sharing economy industry in South Asian countries: firstly, by identifying the barriers to a shared economy startup in this geographical region; and secondly, using the Pakistani metropolitan context to evaluate the feasibility of starting a shared economy motor bike business. In order to answer these two research questions, this paper takes an exploratory approach to research using both primary and secondary data, and makes use of the findings of Hofstede’s cultural dimensions theory in order to find out the deterrents of sharing economy as a result of cultural variation between the developed and developing countries, and of the PEST model analysis in the optics of Pakistan in order to evaluate the feasibility of a motorbike-based sharing economy venture, inspired by the business model of Chinese mobike. The findings of the paper show that the lack of resources from both market and supplier side in collectivist South Asian society and the lack of trust due to high uncertainty avoidance, high terrorism, high corruption etc.
