KSA is an economic success story even if we consider its growth oil-spurred. Iran is an extremely (domestically/internally) peaceful nation. Pakistan is neither. The thing is Pakistan is in this situation only because of itself. In 1980 South Korea had an economy worth $2300 gdp per capita. Now it has $30,000 plus. Iran too was a deeply divided nation during the shahs rule. The Khomenei's though whatever their faults brought peace to a weary nation. We have only ourselves to blame for neither being secure nor an economic giant despite more years than South Korea to solve our economic woes.
South Korea did not face an existential threat from two world powers nor has an enemy seven times it's size.
