You are mistaken. The misconception of the "growth rate" you talk about is not that it is "growing" in the case of Iran but is stagnating, whereas for India it is on the ascendancy. Which means effectively in 2011, the growth rate would have further dropped for Iran and increased for India. This...

Now let me debunk your statements one-by-one. Start with 2003-2010 for all data points. Plot the Y-on-Y change. Iran's output increases slightly, peaks at 2006 (ie difference over 2005) and falls continuously. India on the other hand suffers only a marginal fall of 0.01% from 2004-2005-2006 but...

I do not know as to how this extrapolation has been done, but frankly the assessment in incomplete, incorrect and bunkum to say the least. Let us just consider Iran and India over the period of 2007 - 2010. What is the year on year change in publications for them ? You will see that while the...

You have pretty much hit the nail on the head on the Red part. Read through this article on understanding the Pakistani psyche of honour and pride (called "ghairat" in Urdu). Let us become — proudly — bayghairat An excerpt

No, if you ignore a default, it does not go away By Farooq Tirmizi Published: May 10, 2012 The energy policy calls for subsidising expensive power with money we do not have, rather than investing in cheaper sources of electricity. PHOTO: FILE KARACHI: Forget what all of the...

As i said, the level of maturity amongst Pakistani "lawyers" is so shallow, that they have to stoop to showing problems in the host country instead of the country at discussion. Should we be surprised that Baroness Flather is so out of touch? You know that Baroness Flather was correct, when...
