Former president Pervez Musharraf’s party has come out with a rate card for those wanting to join his entourage for his planned homecoming from self-exile – just $2,500 or about Rs 250,000.
On March 1, Musharraf announced that he intended to end his nearly four-year-long exilem, though a date was yet to be set for his return. However, his All Pakistan Muslim League party has already firmed up plans that will allow people to join his homecoming entourage.
$2500 will get you a confirmed one-way seat on the plane carrying 69-year-old Musharraf from Dubai to Pakistan. And the price includes invitation to a photo opportunity, reception and dinner in Dubai the night before departure.
If you don’t want to fly with him, $1,000 will allow you to attend dinner, reception and a photo opportunity in Dubai. $500 is for reception and photo opportunity while $250 will get you a hand-shake and photo opportunity with Musharraf in Dubai.
Journalists are required to pay a registration fee of $550 for travelling with Musharraf’s entourage.
The event, billed as “A unique opportunity to travel with General Musharraf to Pakistan”, has been organised by the US chapter of the APML.
Details have been posted on Eventbrite, a website that helps organise and sell tickets for such events.
Another event on the website says one can get into the VIP enclosure at the airport in Pakistan, where he will land, to receive and meet General Musharraf.
“Space is limited and admission is FREE. Available on a ‘first come, first serve’ basis”, the event details say.
The APML has also firmed up plans to challenge arrest warrants issued for Musharraf by several courts in connection with a raft of cases.
very interesting.
Is the treatment on arrival in Pakistan be the same as extended to Mian Nawaz Shierf.
$2,500 to schmooze with a has-been? A fool and his money are soon parted.
Wlcome to the greatest and ablest Commando General who put on the highest pedestal. Owing to his great efforts in the field of economy, law and order situation and developmental of other things we praise him.
Musharraf Zinda abdab. Nawaz + Zardari murdabad
I support general musharraf…if people want change in pakistan then industrilists and over seas pakistanis must join musharraf..they can trust musharraf.
I remeber in his era things were under control in pakistan
Yeah I like Mushy but really paying to travel with him is a bit too far.
My view is he needs to pay for my ticket. After all he is the one who needs the support.
election time once again the vultures gathering,mushy the savior,he got pakistan in to war on terror with thousands of pakistani lives lost ,he also amended an act that barred people like sharif nawaz and zardari.he should be held for treason on his return,he is traitor and servant of the outside interest.
I want to say only
Pakistan Zindabad
yep he is the best
