So is increase of GDP a good thing? The thumbs up icons in this thread are saying ‘yes’. Even though the % increase is so slander that it could be someone playing with numbers.

But if it is so good that even 5% increase is worthy of ‘thumb ups’ then why can’t people see WHAT TIME it was HIGHEST?
If people can’t be honest enough to say and acknowledge it then they are only doing politics. They would be happy of increase in GDP only if it happens during the period of THEIR guy.

Now please note when it was the highest:

Yes, it was during Musharraf’s era. The same Musharraf who was thrown out by people for the sake of Iftikhar Chaudhry. Democracy has been taking its ‘revenge’ on people after that ever since.

Actually no the highest was either Ayub or Zia’s time frame. And more importantly not that all that great growth rate was dependent on US support.
