Clinton's damning verdict!

Are you kidding me? **Pakistan needs to feed 5 million extra people each year!**‏

There is no way resources or development can keep pace with such rapid population growth even in the most developed countries of the world never mind Pakistan. Good governance alone will not solve our problems unless we check (thru health promotion etc.) this alarmingly high population growth rate.

**Where are the resources, investment, jobs, schools, hospitals etc. to accomodate such a huge number of people every year? **And remember this 5 million extra burden each year is on top of existing vast underdevelopment and unemployment

And if this trend continues, the increasing discrepancy between supply (resources) and demand (rising population) will result in more vulnerable people with no proper schooling, jobs etc. Ofcourse we must destroy militants in the short-term but the only way we can effectively tackle terrorism in the long-term is thru giving hope to these people, giving them proper education, jobs etc. This will deprive the extremists of the fodder to brainwash.
