Pakistan is a growing economy. It is an underdeveloped country struggling to make its economy strong. Now it has the potential to make its economy strong due to some international good and mega projects such as CPEC. In transportation department and in cargo transportation department especially roads, rails, ships, and airplanes are the right medium to transport things from one place to the other place of the country and internationally as well.
All transportation mediums need fuel to run and to move on. A little bit fluctuation in fuel prices can directly affect the cargo transportation and cargo business in the form of rising of freight rates.
In these days, fuel prices are rising in Pakistan and cargo business at every stage feels the effect of this fluctuation. Fuel is directly involved in the cargo business. Whether it is people carrier or cargo carrier, it moves with fuel and without it, the whole business will be collapsed, so whether it is in the reach of transporters or not vehicles move on the roads, on rails, in the water, and in the airs.
The cost analysts calculate these factors and decide freight rates for transportation of things in between destinations. At the end, the client has to pay all these fluctuations, no one else. When Cargo Freight Rate is going up the transportation department uses different types of techniques to accommodate the cost by adding some extra load on vehicles. This extra load can damage or harm to their vehicles but it works and wheel of transportation especially cargo transportation moves on.
All cargo transport is heavy transport category. It requires a good amount of fuel to move on instead of light vehicles require less amount of fuel. Cargo networking is directly linked to fuel prices and available quantity of fuel.
Fuel fluctuation means un-availability of the good quantity of fuel according to the requirement. This is another reason to fluctuate the freight rates of cargo transportation. Heavy transport requires the proper availability of fuel all over the country especially on Major roads otherwise this will affect the continuity of cargo transportation.
It is the duty of government to maintain the availability of fuel on major roads whether it is cheap or dear. Fuel distributing agencies drop down the quantity from their outlets and it has effects on the transport moves on GT Road and Motorways, while fluctuation of fuel prices.
The economy of any country revolves around the business of the country and if cargo transportation decreases its movement due to the fluctuation of the fuel prices, it means the economy fluctuates.
The Economy of Pakistan fluctuates due to the international fuel prices and local fuel prices. The economy moves with business and business moves with transport. If we get business and want our economy flourishes then fluctuation of fuel prices must be controlled for stable cargo business.
