Then the question would be why it is so damn expensive in Pakistan. I thought streets flow with ghosht and Biryani is available like Mcdonalds $1 meal in Pakistan.

Pakistan Army after every scam be like

I still don’t get it .. is 27 lakh sunk cost … I.e does PCB have a biriyani contractor for the tour and paid him upfront prior to the tour ? 

 

or is it the biriyani vendors across Pakistan brining a lawsuit on NZ team for potential loss of business with cancellation of tour ?

PakMil profit quota.  Even fertilizer in Pakistan has a profit 'cut' for lumber vun phaujj.

Kaali daal will beg for another loan from his Chinese masters to pay for this.

It's reasonable for so many personnel.

 

One thing I have seen is Pakistani's eat a lot, a ton of food. In Lahore, Bhatt's are known to have good appetite lol.

 

Here is Interior Minister of Pakistan, actually if you search Sheikh Rasheed eating, you will find lots of disgusting clips -

That is around US$16,000 for 505 people over 5-6 days. 

 

Say 10 meals (2 per day * 5 days) times 505 = 5050 meals  

 

US$16,000 over 5,050 meals = roughly US$3 per meal. 

 

The issue here is that PCB had to hire over 500 security staff.

They just added the number of 550 security guard to show off.  Actual number could be 50 lol. It is just a head count, if you shout in india ,1000 people will come out from street. the sheer number of humans we have are unbelievable. 

[bsriharsha]

It's not like it's for one day. The security might have been needed for the entire duration of the NZ team visit

How are they suppose to run after troublemakers after stuffing their face with that?

27 lakhs is like 13 lakh Indian rupees.

 

500 people day and night for multiple days, probably had to order it from the luxury hotels.

 

adds up...not sure there is much corruption going on,

 

As people have posted Biryani is a high margin dish. Its is deemed to be luxury but the truth is that it by western standards is a poor mans dish. 80% is rice which is cheap. The cost of the masala and the meat (which can cost high) is a much smaller proportion of the dish. Western dishes are nearly 80% meat with some veggies or carbs on the side.
