Pakistan will pass $300 billion nominal and $1 trillion GNI this year although this is not even accounting the huge informal economy. If Pakistan can maintain the momentum it should start growing at 7-10% again. The $3.3 trillion figure is based on only around 5% growth if Pakistan can grow...

Iran is too big and has friends in high places that arent fond of US intervention. Unlike Iraq and Afghanistan which were quite isolated and much less developed. Similar to why Pakistan hasnt been freedomed yet, although the anti Iran Gulf-Israeli-US alliance is definitely strong. Even an idiot...

Yet Sikh, Hindu, Buddhist, Christian rulers in the subcontinent have all had violent conflicts in the past with eachother. Just because Muslims are a very large minority in India doesnt mean that they are violent invaders. Isnt it weekly that Muslims get killed for eating beef or raped by Hindus...

Pakistan is just seen as the slightly quieter twin of Afghanistan by most western people. Its a shame that they have been conditioned so that the first mention of the name brings up 'terrorist' or 'immigrant' rather than seeing it for the vast emerging country that it is.

Bangladesh is catching up in South Asia and probably will grow very strongly per capita compared to India, Pakistan because of its lower fertility rate and higher focus on sustainable human development.

Well.. Do they want to get invaded

Im sure its environment, British Africans are some of the most intelligent people you will meet

Pakistanis dont hate Indians.. Only Indians are stupid enough to judge a whole people.

Lol Bollywood movies especially song scenes are the most perverted and creepy. Even Nollywood is more decent.

What is their military budget, $3 billion? Hardly more than Sri Lanka. Its not comparable to India or Pakistan.. Not that it needs to be.

Do Pakistanis have to do this? They complain about Indians being obsessed with Pakistani affairs yet many will also slander their neighbour whenever possible. The difference in percentage isnt even that much, Pakistani brick kilns are known for their horrific bonded labour.

In India the regional languages are more evenly split with hundreds and millions of Bengalis, Biharis, Marathis etc. In Pakistan around half the population speak Punjabi or Urdu as their first language as the population is centred in Punjab and Karachi. I know Pakistanis want to create a...

Sad that Pakistan is only being blamed for the tension when India is not looking for dialogue as well. Of course the Islamic Republic gets the stick even when theres unprovoked Indian agression

All Arabs arent the same actually (!) Palestinian culture and dialect is different from other Levantine and the rich peninsular Arab countries. A large minority are also Christian who probably wouldnt be enthusiastic about relocating to wahabbi Arab countries. It would be like kicking out all...

I think more classical Urdu should be taught instead of the version more similar to informal Hindi. Apparently the ancestors of modern Pakistanis spoke mostly farsi before British colonisation and it would distance Pakistanis from foreign Indian culture. At the same time the regional languages...

Brexiters had some legitimate goals such as making the government more democratic, making our own laws on fishing and industries and controlling immigration although the majority voted only for the sake of the latter. It does not look like we'll get anything 'promised' and currently it looks...

Is Pakistan only not considered 9th because of its low military budget relative to the other countries

Pakistan could recognise Israel but should ban its products and any cooperation until it stops occupying Palestinian territories. Besides Israel is already India's best friend in the Middle East and has and is a threat to Pakistan's national defence. It is not worth any technological assistance...

Sykes Picot Treaty is mostly to blame. But I guess a United Arab Republic from Syria to Yemen with 130+ million people and its vast oil reserves wouldnt be much better off.

Didnt a Pakistani leader threaten to strike Israel based on a fake news story
