Re: Can Pak ever catch up to India Militarily?

Pakistan's only honest statesman, Imran Khan, has recently hit out hard and refuted the above WB stats as being fudged by Mush and Co., true figures, as per him, are more along the lines of 70% of Pakistanis living under $2 a day.

Re: Can Pak ever catch up to India Militarily?

also, what you posted wasn’t world bank.

Here is the official World bank link.

Check it out for yourself. Pakistan has a larger segment of its population under the poverty line of a dollar a day than India does.

Provide URL to actual numbers for year 2006 not just URL to a site with older data

here is an exerpt from UN report year 2006 for India

http://www.indiatogether.org/2006/jul/pov-povjuggle.htm

Then the UN Special Rapporteur on the Right to Food, Jean Ziegler, visited India in August last year and made his report to UN. He found that “levels of malnutrition and poverty remain very high and food insecurity has increased since the 1990s.” He found “one of the highest levels of child malnutrition in the world, higher than most countries in Sub-Saharan Africa”. He calculated that 80 per cent of the Indian population was living on less than two dollars per day

And that still don’t change the fact that in following you win hands down..

Starvations
Biggest slums in teh universe
800 million using open air toilets
Mass child malnutrition

Re: Can Pak ever catch up to India Militarily?

you havent posted anything that you didnt post in previous posts. what happened to world bank figures Abbadi?

Pakistan is a poverty-stricken country even when compared to india. it has a lower per capita income, and one in three pakistanis live under the poverty line, i’m guessing not in huge bungalows but slums.

Re: Can Pak ever catch up to India Militarily?

Provide URL to numbers for year 2006 not just a web site front page. More latter on a very nice report by Professor Angus Deaton :)

Can you beat us in the following ? Or are you playing catchup... :)

1) Starvations
2) Biggest slums in the universe
3) 800 million using open air toilets
4) Mass child malnutrition

If u have enough reasons to point fingers at us, then we too have enough reasons to point fingers at you as found in this thread

Fact is, india will acquire more and more weapons in future. Pakistan can follow the same or not follow the same. it is its choice.

Re: Can Pak ever catch up to India Militarily?

as far as number of malnourished goes, china is next to india inspite of it making giant strides in providing large scale employment by its strong manufacturing industry. That too the difference is not that big either. but pakis will neveeer talk about it ;).....okay i will now leave this ghisa pita topic (that too deviated)

Re: Can Pak ever catch up to India Militarily?

I believe IMF data (as shown on Wiki, sourced) suggests that the per day $1 range is greater in India. However its a silly argument, both nations are dirt poor on a per capita basis.

http://earthtrends.wri.org/updates/node/6

WB 2006 data. India’s is 31%, Pak 17%. (For $2/day its 80/70…both sad)

BBC supports fact that 1/3 of Indians live on $1/day

Please dont twist stats, but numerical evidence in this case is overwhelming. Even Encyclopedia Brittanica states that absolute poverty in India is greater then the rest of South Asia as a % and in sheer numbers.

Re: Can Pak ever catch up to India Militarily?

With respect to your map-click stats, that graphic is clearly outdated as shown by IMF 2007 database, the latest one.

http://www.imf.org/external/pubs/ft/weo/2006/01/data/dbcoutm.cfm?SD=2003&ED=2007&R1=1&R2=1&CS=3&SS=2&OS=C&DD=0&OUT=1&C=564-534&S=NGDPDPC&RequestTimeout=120&CMP=0&x=83&y=6

You see in real terms the difference favors Pakistan. PPP is obviously effected by ER and cost of living domestically. $800 goes further in India then $900 in Pakistan, but that’s not what you claimed.

I thought Queer was a Pakistani.

legbreakgoogly · June 28, 2007, 2:20am

Re: Can Pak ever catch up to India Militarily?

Also CIA factbook suggests % in Pov is greater in India then Pakistan too.

I think in light of all this evidence, your claim has been disproven conclusively.
