An article titled Future Of Work by Mr. Kashif Mateen Ansari Chief Executive Officer Sachal Energy Development Pvt. Ltd. Published: Business Recorder, 13 March, 2025

Our CEO Mr. Kashif Mateen Ansari's recent article discusses how the workplace is evolving faster than ever. With AI, automation, demographic shifts, and climate change reshaping industries, the skills we rely on today may not be relevant tomorrow. By 2030, 39% of skills that drive jobs today will be obsolete. Companies are taking notice—85% of employers plan to enhance training programs. But here's the challenge: 11% of the workforce is at risk of being left behind. The solution? A proactive approach to upskilling, reskilling, and lifelong learning. This is not just about survival—it’s about thriving in an era where adaptability is the ultimate advantage. Governments, businesses, and individuals must work together to ensure the workforce is ready for the future. How prepared are we for this transformation?

Echoes of empires

An article titled Echoes of empires by Mr. Kashif Mateen Ansari Chief Executive Officer Sachal Energy Development Pvt. Ltd. Published: Business Recorder, 30 October, 2024

To summarize, history has spoken: if authority is uncontrolled and institutions are designed to extract rather than serve, society will disintegrate and become disorderly. It is up to us to rise from the ashes. We must diversify the power structure; we must invest in serving the society from which we derive our resources and mandate; we must incorporate the principles of transparency, accessibility, and accountability into our institutions; and we must take seriously the now-largely theoretical task of ensuring that everyone’s rights and needs are met. Look at Mel Gibson’s Apocalypto if you have to; the lesson is there. The recent article of Mr. Kashif Mateen Ansari, Chief Executive Officer, Sachal Energy Development (Pvt.) Ltd.

We need to think about the future of children and young people, do we want them to inherit a weak Pakistan that cannot sustain itself through economic activity? Do we want them to be at the mercy of our neighbours who are not very fond of us? do we want them to be begging for aid or fighting among themselves in a civil war? If we want them to avoid all these difficult scenarios, we need to educate them to become productive.To break free from the clutches of elite capture and transition towards a more equitable and just society, Pakistanis (please note it’s the people) must actively promote ethical leadership, enforce accountability mechanisms, and empower civil society to hold the elite class to task. Following a governance model that places the public good and democratic principles at its core is imperative for Pakistan’s progress.

Although economists have long held the view that investment in infrastructure helps in reducing poverty but now the game has changed a lot. Infrastructure projects help the capitalists more than the poor as most of the work traditionally done for these projects that was labour intensive is taken over by machines that are capital intensive. So, infrastructure development itself does not help the poor as much as it does the person with money.
