People have been writing things here regarding Pakistans economic state which is totally fictitious. In 2005, the World Bank reported that "Pakistan was the top reformer in the region and the number 10 reformer globally %u2014 making it easier to start a business, reducing the cost to register property, increasing penalties for violating corporate governance rules, and replacing a requirement to license every shipment with two-year duration licenses for traders." Also the GDP in Pakistan was ranked at 140 just behind India at 137(2005 figures). Economic rate of growth was 8.5% India's 8%. Point here is there is not much difference in economic conditions in India and Pakistan at present. For the record, I am not a Paki (before the so called literate people start calling me names). Do some research and educate yourself instead of blabbering lies

Your are entirly wrong man. Pakistan never can participate in the race of fast growing countries.India,Russia,China and Brazil is the top performers.India and china sustain their strong and robust enconmy growth.I would like to inform,indian companies hungry in cross border acquision.The globalization gives more impact.I can tell confidentely,pakistan is not a place where you invest the money. Can you ensure political stability in pakistan?Terririsiom,poverty,worst GDP.They never give the importance to the Womens.India has the lot of potential strength.India has the capability of overtake the china in next 20 years and US in next 50 years.I am not tell this.Lot of Econmical experts mentioning in their interviews.Now you can think where pakistan stands?where india stands?

My intention was not to compare India with Pakistan. I tried to make a point that the economy in Pak is not in shambles as people have been writing here(food for infants etc.).

There is absolutely no comparison b/w India and Pakistan.Because of its sheer size ,India is better off anytime. When you translate those growth percentages(which are similar) in to absolute numbers ,the difference would be very very huge(at least 50 times) and there lies our advantageous position anytime. Also if you have read recent news reports,India has become a donor nation while Pakistan still depends on begging for its survival and these missile tests.

dear shak u got some good figures. do u watch cricket? once a batsmen who was had faced 40 odd balls and had scored 8 runs. On taking a double a commentator described how his runrate was improving.
wht i mean to say is stop wasting ur time on futile researches. a developed European country might have a negative a growth rate and lower GDP. its does not mean pak has surpassed these european countries and besides there is nothing below hell. so pak has only 1 way to go
