...Ongoing Concern: Risk Management at Pakistan International Airlines1 Ch. Ahmed Mukhtar, Chairman Pakistan International Airline Corporation (PIAC) was reading the final version of the PIAC audited annual report. He immediately called the Managing Director, PIAC to arrange a meeting to discuss the auditor’s report. The particular part of auditors’ opinion that caught his attention was the following: “We draw attention to note 1.2 to the unconsolidated financial statements, which states that the Corporation incurred a loss of Rs. 26,767.207 million during the year ended December 31, 2011, resulting in accumulated loss of Rs. 119,016.727 million as of December 31, 2011, and as of that date, the Corporation’s current liabilities exceeded its current assets by Rs. 88,221.403 million. These conditions indicate the existence of a material uncertainty which may cast doubt about the Corporation’s ability to continue as a going concern. Our opinion is not qualified in respect of this matter.” The agenda of the meeting was quite clear i.e., how to keep PIA solvent. PIAC Brief History2: In 1946 Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah realized the need for an airline network for the forming country and ask for the help of an industrialist Mirza Ahmad Ispahani to develop a flag carrier for the nation.

...chapters are unanimous in purpose and resolve to develop Busoga. Just note that both Houston and Minneapolis made Twegaite truly international. (i) New Jersey Chapter At the May 21st – 25th , 2009 Twegaite second International Convention in Minneapolis, MN, the banquet speaker Betsy Waibi Zikusoka spoke of the history and purpose of Twegaite as a concept and an organization. She also highlighted some of the achievements the organization had scored in specific projects back in Busoga. “I shall try my best to give you the history of Twegaite” she said. “Twegaite came about as a result of a meeting that was held in Princeton Junction, one Sunday afternoon, in October 1998. We figured that as a group the idea of trying to give back to our community in Busoga and Uganda at large was not a bad one. It is a non-political group and the name Twegaite means, "Let's unite." Membership is open to anybody in the world who subscribes to our cause regardless of gender, ethnic background or religious belief”. According to Fred N. Alibatya, the current chairman of Twegaite Inc. - New Jersey, the organization was informally started in October 1998 by a group of Ugandans that included Betsy & Aggrey Zikusoka, Harriet & Dennis Mugwanya, Lydia & Alexander Zabassajja, Mary & Chris Bakwesegha, and Loy & Ten Tehnhwa, among...

...Energy, Infrastructure and Communications I n tandem with the pick-up in overall industrial growth, core industries and infrastructure services have also evinced signs of recovery with easing of supply bottlenecks in certain sectors and demand recovery in others. The robust growth momentum in telecommunications, particularly the wireless segment, continues with monthly additions exceeding 17.6 million connections. In the midst of the worstever slowdown in the history of world civil aviation, even the modest levels of growth in India are indicative of resilience. Core industries like power, coal and other infrastructure like ports and roads are also reviving. Available evidence points to a steady revival of flows of investible resources. However, the levels of broadband penetration, capacity creation in some crucial infrastructure sectors and the state of development of markets for longterm finance remain causes for concern. There is need to develop infrastructure to complement and sustain the economic growth momentum. Efforts—legislative, administrative and executive—are on to minimize the infrastructure deficit, ameliorate bottlenecks in completion of projects and nurture core industrial intermediates and infrastructure services. 10 CHAPTER 10.2 The stimulus measures announced by the national authorities worldwide to combat the economic slowdown contained infrastructure buildup plans. In line with the rest of the world, the Union Budget for 2009-10 substantially stepped...

...EXECUTIVE SUMMARY ONGC leads the way when it comes to achieving carbon neutrality within the energy sector. In an effort to do so, it has become the first PSU to achieve emission reduction certificates from the United Nations. Achievements of this sort, coupled with growth, make ONGC the undisputed leader in its business The Company has set many milestones and the government has decided to bestow the “Maharatna” status with increased empowerments and distinctly higher status as a premier Public Sector Undertaking.

This represents a growth of 12% in both turnover and net worth and 13% in net profit over FY-2010. The company continued to pursue its growth strategy despite the fact that global economy was in shambles and the oil industry had been at crossroads since later half of 2008. The growth vehicle of ONGC, “ONGC VIDESH LTD.” With 40 projects in 15 countries sourced 8.87 MTOE of oil and gas in FY 2010: the highest ever.
