The payment outgo is hard cash from the central bank reserves while the efficiency gains and savings are highly subjective and a miniscule portion would return to the treasury in the form of taxes. Therefore, the payments affect the current account balances given the limited forex availability...

Here's the process. Check the lists of miss world and miss universe. Then count the number of Indians on the list. Finally try and find a single Pakistani. You will get your answer. Also to your last question - A likely reason is IPL being able to afford foreign cheerleaders. Cheers!

A slumdog from Rotherham talking about Jaguar!Not your cup of tea my friend. Still just to ease your misery- read the below: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/business/2017/01/08/record-sales-jaguar-land-rover/ It actually says the 4X4 is in high demand and they sell a car every minute. If you need...

American citizens were also killed in Mumbai attacks.

Actually it's the other way around. The next 5 years will be your best years with all the infrastructure spending under CPEC pushing your growth to 5-6.5%. Once the roads and the power plants are completed, the growth will taper down again with a lot of accumulated debt, distorted trade balance...

President Modi? Thats the daily disruption part in the article!

While being proud of what India has achieved in space technologies with a shoe string budget, it's evident than our space program is 10-15 years behind China. We will take another 10-15 years to launch manned missions in space. They did it in 2003. They are building a space station of their...

Humility should be appreciated. Give credit where due. India is doing well in space technology, but China is far ahead of us in Asia and that's beyond doubt.

Highly unlikely..Q1 GDP stands at 7.1% and Q2 at 7.3%. There is no way full year growth will touch 7.7%. Accounting for demonetization, Q3 growth will likely be between 6.5-7 % which will probably accelerate in the 4th quarter. The full fiscal growth will likely be in the range 6.7-7.0 %. The...

I rest my case and wish you good luck :)

Jim O neill is no oracle. He coined the term BRIC in 2001 and got it wrong by 2015 (see the link below). No country in the history has grown at over 10% for over 30 years.The only country in the history to ever have grown at high rates over a long period was China. The growth rate you are...

Though such long term forecasts are highly inaccurate for any economy given there are 100's of factors, basic mathematics tells that if Pakistan grows @ 7% on an average from hereon till 2050 ( Highly unlikely- as a 34 year average) from its current base of $270 bn, it will be in the range of...

Assuming the idea you have proposed to be feasible. Think about this..the money you will collect from the tax would be in PKR while the weapons you want to purchase are sold in Dollars or Euros.So how do you plan to get the forex given the central bank reserves are in the range of $ 23 bn or so?

You didn't understand a bit of what i said above..did you :). Never mind...not your fault..it's the education...or lack of it...and by the way... These tattas of tata are worth half your country's gdp..if you had grown some like these you won't need to borrow from papa China.

Delusions usually are non-curable and CPEC induced delusions more so. Orangi is a 60 km square city within a city. Heck, you can even make an airport in Orangi...it is so grand and spacious. Poor Dharavi is just a 2 sq km insignificant patch of land. However this small patch of land exports...

China might soon own 40% of everything in Pakistan.

Tomorrow if Nepal opens a stock exchange with 10 stocks and a benchmark at 100 and it grows to 200 in a quarter then statistically Nepal would be the best performing market in the world with 100% return in a quarter. Don't make a fool out of your countrymen with half baked stories. Look at KSE...

So you have given up your healthcare argument and now back to the poverty rant. Last I checked, Orangi Town was the largest slum in the world and with all the poverty of millions and millions, India's per capita GDP is approx 30% more than Pakistan. This ain't gonna change with any number of...

Yeah..i guess the same reason why Malala is scared to visit Pakistan Tell that to the teams you are desperate to play cricket with in pakistan..maybe you will soon succeed in having PSL in pakistan !!

Why don't you try and show your legendary medical facilities to your countrymen who desperately seek cure in Indian hospitals..and here's a dash of economics for you..with 1pkr you can only buy 0.65 inr...so peddle that "every treatment is available in pakistan but expensive" crap elsewhere-...
