Afghanistan’s economy has suffered since the Taliban took over in 2021 with some sectors collapsing altogether.
But the country’s businesses are still finding ways to stay afloat, despite significant banking restrictions.
Al Jazeera’s Osama Bin Javaid has been meeting business owners in the city of Herat, Afghanistan.

There should be free trade between India,iran, Afghanistan and Pakistan. Just like Europe. We all will grow faster
India should put a way the rascim and should start to develop with Asian countries
There is no Business and Export 😅😢
We do business and export with our neighboring countries, we have transit with our neighboring countries, now Afghanistan works on their minerals and contract with china and Iran so Afghanistan and Afghan didn’t want any relationship with Europe and America after this we just want do business with neighbor countries that benefit us ten time more than those Europes and America so get lost bukshit people

How many killed since Taliban takeover? Afghanistan has become more secure country than many of its neighbours and particularly than south american countries. Democracy is a suit but it does not fit to everyone. Singapore, China, South Korea and Middle East became developed countries under singly party system or dictatorship.
We need this government in Turkey
Need this government to Pakistani ttp
@@ajjony4866 Turkey will be run by Shariah
Bangladesh is waiting for pamir cola
Alhamdulillah
Thanks Aljazera for supporting Afghan people

Our Pakistani (American) government not accepting the Taliban government who want to implement Islamic system.Shame on us as Muslim.
Don’t wait for anyone to accept you. Work hard and grow. Make an internal market for everything. Diversify economy. Try to make trade partners. Keep fearing God almighty. Never dilute your values.
One day these people will beg for your attention, In Sha Allah.
May Allah SWT give more chances to my beloved country Afghanistan to promote and go ahead.
Ma Sha Allah . Always nice to see good news about Afghanistan . Oh The Country of my forefathers I love you and Love Your People .
Pakistan and Afghanistan Zindabad
Good luck. But need in Bangladesh.
RISING ECONOMIC AFGHANISTAN !!!
Biased reportage. You could put a stastical comparison of export and imports, revenue earned and spent along with GDP in years 2020, 2021, 2022 and 2023. You are actually hiding more than stating facts and figures. The country is progressing in fronts in a speed that no one expected, is a fact.
Make an internal market for everything. Diversify economy. Try to make trade partners.
The Western world has proven to us who they are by putting restrictions and sanctions on Afghanistan and by supporting a certain country that is committing geno side as we speak. How vile, evil and disgusting.
برطانوی راج کے دوران، خاص طور پر افغانستان اور موجودہ پاکستان کے علاقے میں ریلوے لائنوں کی تاریخ، برطانوی سامراج کی اقتصادی اور فوجی دلچسپیوں سے جڑی ہوئی ہے۔ برطانوی انڈین ریلوے نیٹ ورک کو مغربی سرحد کی طرف بڑھایا گیا تھا، جس کا مقصد نہ صرف اقتصادی فائدہ اٹھانا تھا بلکہ فوجی اور استراتیجک مفادات کا تحفظ بھی تھا۔
# خیبر پاس ریلوے
خیبر پاس ریلوے اس عہد کا ایک اہم منصوبہ تھا۔ یہ لائن جمرود، جو کہ پشاور کے قریب واقع ہے، سے شروع ہو کر خیبر پاس کے نزدیکی علاقے تک جاتی تھی۔ اس ریلوے لائن کو 20ویں صدی کے اوائل میں مکمل کیا گیا تھا، اور یہ خیبر پاس کی پہاڑی مشکل راستے سے گزرتی تھی۔ خیبر پاس تاریخی طور پر وسطی ایشیا اور بھارتی برصغیر کے درمیان اہم تجارتی اور حملہ آوری کا راستہ رہا ہے۔
### جدید ترقیات اور تجاویز
آزادی کے بعد، ریجن کی ریلوے انفراسٹرکچر میں مختلف ترقیات دیکھنے کو ملیں، لیکن توجہ زیادہ پاکستان اور ہندوستان کے اندر داخلی رابطے پر مرکوز ہوگئی۔ حالیہ دہائیوں میں افغانستان میں ریلوے نیٹ ورک کو بڑھانے کی بات چیت ہوئی ہے، خاص طور پر علاقائی تجارت اور تعاون کے انیشیٹیوز کے تناظر میں۔
### حالیہ تجاویز
حالیہ تجاویز اور بات چیت میں پاکستان کے ریلوے نیٹ ورک کو افغانستان میں بڑھانے کی بات شامل ہے، جس میں پشاور سے جلال آباد اور کابل تک کی لائنوں کی توسیع کی بات شامل ہے۔ ایسے منصوبے علاقائی رابطے کے بڑے منصوبوں، جیسے چین-پاکستان اقتصادی راہداری (CPEC) اور دیگر انیشیٹیوز کا حصہ ہیں، جو جنوبی اور وسطی ایشیا کے ممالک کے درمیان اقتصادی انضمام اور تعاون کو بڑھانے کے لئے ہیں۔
### نتیجہ
افغانستان-پاکستان سرحد کے قریب ریلوے ٹریکس کی تاری
May ALLAH bless more Success to AFGHANISTAN……………. Love & Respect from PAKISTAN
As of my last update, there is no specific railway track that runs through the Torkham border itself, as previously mentioned. However, the history of railway ambitions and proposals in the region, particularly those involving Pakistan and Afghanistan, is part of a broader narrative of South Asian rail infrastructure development and its strategic, economic, and political dimensions.
### British Raj Era and Strategic Railways
The history of railways in the region of present-day Pakistan and Afghanistan dates back to the British Raj when the British Empire extended the Indian railway network towards its northwest frontier. This expansion served both economic purposes and strategic military interests, particularly as a means of securing the empire’s border against potential Russian advances from Central Asia — a component of the Great Game.
### The Khyber Pass Railway
One of the most significant railway projects of that era near the Afghan border was the Khyber Pass Railway. This line extended from Jamrud, near Peshawar in the then North-West Frontier Province (now in Pakistan), to the border area near the Khyber Pass. Completed in the early 20th century, this line was a marvel of engineering, navigating the challenging terrain of the Khyber Pass, which has historically been a key trade and invasion route between Central Asia and the Indian subcontinent.
### Modern Developments and Proposals
Post-independence, the rail infrastructure in the region saw various developments, but the focus shifted more towards domestic connectivity within Pakistan and India. The idea of extending railway connectivity into Afghanistan has been discussed in recent decades, especially in the context of regional trade and cooperation initiatives. Afghanistan’s limited rail infrastructure, which has seen some development in the 21st century, mainly connects it with its northern neighbors, such as Uzbekistan and Turkmenistan, and Iran to the west.
### Recent Proposals
There have been recent proposals and discussions around extending Pakistan’s rail network into Afghanistan, including potential lines that could extend from Peshawar towards key Afghan cities like Jalalabad and Kabul. Such projects are part of broader discussions about regional connectivity, including the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) and other initiatives aimed at enhancing economic integration across South and Central Asia.
### Conclusion
The history of railway tracks near the Afghanistan-Pakistan border, particularly through areas like the Khyber Pass, is intertwined with the colonial legacy, strategic military considerations, and modern-day economic development and regional connectivity ambitions. While no railway currently runs through the Torkham border itself, the evolving discourse on regional connectivity keeps the possibility of future rail links in public and policy discussions.

Forget global banking cabal, use bitcoin n cryptos for trading..
How can they make an economic plan if they are being sanctioned, the US should remove sanctions on them and we will see Afghanistan prosper inshaaAllah.
Mashallah
wanna taste pamir cola❤
❤A F🫡
Mashallah
MasaAllah ❤
Domestic industry flourished in iran bcz of sanctions hopefully Afghanistan can learn from it’s neighbours. Today iran is not only producing sufficient food for it’s citizens but automobiles , smart phones , clothings and much more….
It’s also a good message from Afghanistan that women are also doing job in a country where millions of man are looking for a job.
Send them to india and Sri Lanka too
Blame the US. They love to keep people poor
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I’m always torn between feeling sorry for the Afghans that have had other countries invade and dictate how they live….and feeling for the Afghan women who live in such a repressive society.
It’s not too bad to live under your husband or father. Life is much easier that way.
You should look after your women. Their depression rate is increasing.
“Live under”? That is the core of the problem…unless you don’t believe that women are equally created by God to be free and happy.
@@freedomrulesjavier3904 men and women are equal in value but we’re created different. Islam is clear about gender roles. Because Islam prioritizes the base foundation family the most.
So…beating to submission is okay. Keeping them from basic education is okay? Why not let those who would rather live under a different set of life values leave…and let those who want to live under their version of Sharia law stay?
@@freedomrulesjavier3904 ‘beating to submission’ where did you find this?
I just bought a Rashko Baba pressure cooker that was exported from Afghanistan 😊
We the enemy get out of your face
You will be free for everything
Afghanistan ❤🇦🇫❤
I like Afghanistan water exactly natural and delicious in test
Masallah brothers
Now its only Afghanistan vs west or believers vs disbelievers
Very unfortunate for them
时间会证明这条路上的每一步都没错
The bottles are not equally filled
Just in 3 years, they’ve come a long way. I can’t imagine the next 10 years. Kudos to hard-working people.
they have been doing these for decades its just that the sanctions have halted their exports and imports from many countries.
Afghanistan 💚💚😍
Good to see
Shame on Pakistanis for being behind from Afghanistan 🇦🇫.
Let every country grow and be at peace…. From Indian!!
With the rise of the illegal state and the coming of the false Messiah. There is also a parallel rise of the resistance too…
Alhamdulillah
Good,
Farm Farm Farm. Export to China, Russia and Middle east. Invest in farming.
It’s not that the world has a problem with the Taliban- it’s that the world has a problem with the Taliban’s backwards and misogynist regime. Get rid of that, even if you keep the Taliban, and circumstances would be significantly different for the Afghans currently suffering.
But that’s their way of life. Why does the west want to coerce everyone to accept their dogmas?
Do business with india via Iran route
Indians often don’t pay up and c/heat in business
Masha Allah
I pray that Afghanistan will be better than before.
Afghanistan currency are stronger than india
What’s with the sanctions anyway, it looks like they are a legitimate government now. Nothing we can do about it. Let them run their country how they want.
Love from Bangladesh 🇧🇩❤️🇦🇫
Masha allah. .
Imarat e Islami Going Green 💚

Our pray for Afganistan. Afganistan day by day going to better elhamdülillah.
Elhamdülillah 👏
China investment in country well-spent i guess, if they’re be (New Afghanistan government) trusted swore to not supporting these extremists (Al-Qaeda, which is Taliban old friend yet ‘scandalous’).
I’m sure is great during Occupation
I’m more surprised Afghanistan has machinery and mass production facilities.
They can prosper if the west gives them back the money they stealed, and let them trade freely.
Saffron worth more than gold
Sorry for invading u guys that one time Hope u guys can get your bag
Good luck to afghan people!
Any nation will be okay without Western Invasion and Occupation
Love to Afghanistan from 🇲🇦
