– Unskilled
• What share will go to Baloch people?
– Number & Type Of Jobs
– Educate / Upgrade / Elevate
– Sense Of Deprivation / Alienation
Legislation
• Directing Opportunities Towards Local
Businesses
• Guaranteeing Employment For Locals
• Ensuring Use Of Locally Available Raw
Materials
• Transparency
