I hate it when people compare us to Somalia or Afghanistan because that is untrue. We are the 27th largest economy in PPP terms and 46 in terms of Read GDP. We were number 50 in 2008. So every year our economy has gotten bigger and bigger. Our exports have increased even with no power, limited man power and limited support from market access programme.

Lastly its time Pakistan moved away from the India focus and concentrate on ourselves. We can not compare with India due to a host of reasons and nor should we try too. We should be able to stand alone and say yeah the situation is bad but things are good on some ends and our economic figures are good to an extent considering all our issues.

Maybe not as bad as Somalia/Afghanistan but no better than most countries. Its quite easy to point to rankings but even you know they’re primarily misconstrued. Pakistan is in a very bad position now. Weak economically, politically, socially. The reality is things are simply messed up to a point where its hard to be optimistic.
