Re: Destroyed by Z.A Bhutto - the golden economic legacy left by Ayub Khan?
Pakistan's economy was booming in 1955-56. That was the year we had the 2nd fastest growth rate in Asia after Japan and we had the surplus balance of payment during that year which we never had afterwards. The economic boom seen during Ayub's era was due to the policies of the previous government.
When ZA Bhutto nationalized industr, that was the norm of the era as we saw natioanlization in UK as well.
