^ I agree.
sufyankkk had a very valid point. I dont think it would be possible to build a CNG station. Involving 5000 and more people's contribution.
But why dont we try to talk to these cng stations. If they can offer jaw-dropping discounts of 28% which is common in Johar town, they can definately sell it on lower rates if we can strike a deal with them.
Which would require a strength of members. PW admins and mods can announce this and the database of all card holders can be collected.
For example we can talk to 4-5 CNG stations in a city which would be most feasible for all the members who will show their willingness to participate. We would be guarenteeing the CNG oweners of a fixed revenue per month and that i think is a good enough incentive to give lower rates to PW Members. (Some stations which are not on the main roads are usually deserted, they can be lured into the deal,etc )
Building/purchasing a cng station will require : TIME, REVENUE, and Constant monitoring. Who'd have the legal rights, who'd take care of cash flows, daily maintainance, equipment ? And a member mentioned it takes in years to build a station.. GOd knows where the rates go of things and even gas by that time.. and any unforseen circumstances can see the whole thing go down the drain.. It will be a full time job. Until PW becomes a corporate entity, it seems impossible.
And also, instead of protesting, we should come together and do something sensible for ourselves because nothing can be expected from the government.
What say?
