Pakistan Real per capita income growth:
1988-1999: … 1.08 percent real average per capita income growth per year (Total increase was 12.6 percent over 11 years)
3 years before Musharraf came to power:
1996-1999: … - 0.5 (minus 0.5) percent real per capita income growth during those 3 years (negative growth of 0.5 percent)
This is nothing to do with nuclear test as actually there was negative per capita income growth for year 1996-97 as well as for year 1997-98 (Both pre-nuclear test years).
All ‘nuclear test fallouts’ plus ‘Kargil fallouts’ was during Musharraf period as it takes time for economy to get effected of such fall outs.
Musharraf period:
2000-2007: … 2.95 percent real average per capita income growth per year
Well, if we start from 2002:
2002-2007: … 3.55 percent real average per capita income growth per year
For year:
2005-2006: … 4.45 percent real average per capita income growth for this year.
2006-2007: … 5.05 percent real average per capita income growth for this year.
(If Pakistan per capita real income grows at this rate (around 5 percent) continuously than it would take less than 50 years for Pakistan to be part of developed world).
