Purchasing power parity...
by no south on Mar 14, 2008 09:48 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

Purchasing power parity GDP per person of India is $4500 while of Pak is $2400 according to wikipedia. So an average Indian is twice well off as an average Paki. But, is it really true?

Some islands of wealth in both countries does not make much of difference to the poor of both countries. GDP is not an indicator of the standard of living of a country's citizens.

The Govt of both countries should strive to give proper education and employment opportunities instead of wasting money on arms race. Neither can Pakistan defeat India nor anybody in India wants to annex that country. The problem is kashmir has to be solved amicably.

Sorry for Pak it is $3320. So an average Indian is 1.5 times better off as compared to an average Paki.
