What the US can do,
IF GOSL do what they ask, GET the money, and then, do WHAT GOSL want to do again for the betterment of national security...?

All these western demands are having some sort of modern-colonization mindset.

spent Rs. 100 millions for his foreign tours

This is for about 20 trips, news says.

So, average cost for 1 trip = Rs. 5 million
If the team has 4 people always, over Rs. 1 million per person, for each trip.
Apart from the minister, other team members should not use 1st class.

This clearly shows, they use a huge amount of money for hotels and food.

Also, country should not forget, they get a high salary with some over-time money.

MR must make see through these sort of expenditure.

No country in the world had become a so-called 'developed' country through just foreign aid...!

The people who are dying to receive foreign aid must read the book titled: 'The White Man's Burden' by William Easterly (2006)...

This book exposes the disasters brought upon the poor countries which received large amounts of foreign aid...!

If the country needs to develop, citizens must use their own ingenuity and strategies and work hard themselves... like people in so-called 'developed' countries had done...or at least follow the China model...!
