22% of Pakistanis and 15% of Indians are hungry and malnourished!!!

[Gufi]

the report says undernourishment

malnourishment is deficiency of nutrients not subject to weight or height of person.

If the FAO data is to be believed, then I wonder why the body mass index of Pakistanis is higher and healthier than that of Indians?

More obesity in Pakistan I guess.

Are you serious, I mean are you really serious??
Why do I not counter and say that finish the massive corruption in the civilian government, increase salaries based on output rather then across the board salary increases. If parts of Wapda can not get their ratio of electricity theft down, fire them or fine their salary. That will give the people incentive to pointing out electricity thieves. Also the same goes for Sui which has been mismanaged and stripped, or PIA which always demands money and can not give any real advantage. SO before you go on about defence budgets, why do we not start from correcting these problem, the money saved could subsidize the food for EVERY Pakistani to very affordable levels.
Oh did I mention Pakistan steel mills or any other government organisation not able to sustain itself. Only ones should be hospitals who should provide subsidised care, the other organisations, whether Lesco, Pepco, or whatever should perform

Do you know why there is so much corruption in pakistan... because there is no rule of law... when some one come n throw constitution away just using shear power and go away scst free this gives wrong msg..ie if u have power u can do wht ever u like...this thinking trickles down to corruption n destruction of rule of law...


Make the powerfull people to be subserviant to law corruption will be cured in days..

Regarding my post.. ones prime necessity is security..survival. good food n dress r secondry things...that what meant above

6th grader science concept.

malnourishment is deficiency of nutrients not subject to weight or height of person.

A person can be overweight but still be malnourished.

However for your mental health, lets just agree FAO is false and fake

Hungry and overweight? Really?

It takes protein to be tall, not veggies.

If the FAO data is to be believed, then I wonder why the body mass index of Pakistanis is higher and healthier than that of Indians?
In terms of average BMI (Body Mass Index), Pakistanis and Chinese are at 23, Indians 21 and Bangladeshis 20.5, all within normal range of 18.5 to 24.9. The average values of BMI for Europe, Middle East and North and South America are much higher.

And how is that even related to undernourishment. Even countries like Ghana has an average BMI of 24.5 which is much higher than BMI of both China and Pakistan. It's also interesting to note that Japanese (f) has an average BMI of 21.8 which is really close to average Indian (f) BMI of 21.4 .. So does that mean both India and Japan are undernourished but countries like Ghana are not. But it's not surprising .. as most of your threads and so called "articles" are of similar quality and employs similar retarded logic.

India 15 percent more than 35 percent i think indian people are more poor than pak average

I merely said we don't consider your country(Pakistan) as our arch rival. And as you said we have fought 4 Wars and our relationship with you hasn't improved hence we consider your country as a Security threat.

We merely said we would eliminate terrorists who are plotting against India from foreign lands.

So you have been to Modi's bedroom and also know what he dreams about. Now tell me who's paranoid.

1) I am not from India, so I am not closed eyes, blind patriotism high in a "wana be" soup-o-powa status. I can engage in an unbiased argument unlike the 95% of the Indian members on here.

2) The ONLY threat you've really faced, is Pakistan. Since the cut off of what used to be India into India and Pakistan. There is no other threat. The Chinese aren't your enemies, we, the West is PREPARING YOU to fight them as a hedge. So India = Hedge, btw, I think this hedge fund will fail as when the time comes, you'll chicken out as always and we'll still have to fight the Chinese ourselves, which is perfectly fine. But it'll become very obvious in the next few years.

So you are "Wana Be" Chinese. But they aren't your enemy or a real threat, it has, is and will always be Pakistan. Chinese are just involved with a few border disputes. After a few hundred miles of your border, the real Chinese land is on the other side of the Himalayas hundreds of miles away where even jets can't reach so there isn't a real threat from the Chinese. If you really want to, both of you can settle your little disputes in a day.

3) So when your people kill, plot bombings and blow up markets in Pakistan, they aren't terrorists? But when the other side does it, they are? You have a very fukked up definition of terrorism. The ones you like are not terrorists, but others, doing the same thing to you become terrorists because they've caused pain to you? How about you become a human and denounce terrorism all across, including your own country where fanatic religious Hindus are too busy killing in Indian minorities including Christians and Muslims??? Sikhs have already been killed in scores and if they can they'd love to get their Khalistan.

4) So really what's terrorism???? Hindus killing Christians, Muslims, burning their places of worship, burning their homes with families inside, and in scores of them, are NOT terrorists to you as they belong to your religion? But someone from a different religion doing the same to you is a terrorist??? Call Modi a terrorist for killings he ordered in Gujrat and supported in 20 other places where hundreds of people from your minorities were brutally kiled by Hindu extremists. Then we can talk elsewhere. To me, ISIS and Hindu Extremists are the same, straight forward terrorists. The difference is, Hindus are backed up by billions of dollars of trade with India and ISIS lunatics are rag tag without financial support. So clear up the concepts on terrorism before doing propaganda on here. Btw, I am not even starting on millions killed in Kashmir......that would give your rear some real pain if I started to talk about the mighty Indian Army who's killed millions of civilians, raped hundreds of thousands of women so they can bear "Hindu Children" etc, etc.

5) Modi is a straight up terrorist fanatic, I'd hate to even see him in person or on TV, let alone visit his house. Religious nut cases from all religions are banned in my books as they spread hate, violence and kill innocent humans, irrespective of their race, religion or country.

Shameful figures for both nations.

Right folks no more off-topic posts please.

India has more poverty but a more Pakistanis are malnourished

Some facts.

Pak per capita meat 16kg vs 3kg for Indians. India wheat production 95MT vs 26MT for Pakistan. So India produces just around 4 times more wheat compared to Pakistan but population is 7 times bigger.

Pakistan milk production 50 million tons vs 135 million/t for India. These are basic food items.

 

[Viking 63]

The quality of food in Pakistan is really bad now, that is the problem !! no wonder this entire nation is malnourished, not hungry !!

Epic fail Ghenda... It's rice which is our main staple crop. And The India's rice production is 108.8 million tonnes accounting for 21% of all world rice production. And wheat can be only considered as our secondary staple crop with 96 million tonnes annual production.
While rice production in Pakistan is 6 million tonnes annually & wheat production being 25 million tonnes annually. So combined annual production of wheat and rice of Pakistan is just 31 million tonnes annually.While combined annual production of wheat and rice of India is 205 million tonnes annually which is nearly 7 times as that of Pakistan.

Now coming to Milk production you just forgot to say that India is the largest Milk producer of the world followed by U.S and China.
