Pakistani companies cannot grow because the finance isn't available. When finance is available choors Rob the banks. Its a dire situation
Agreed, but I also sometimes feel people are think that the government should start providing services that would be great for a company to do instead. Sometimes it’s capital other times, but sometimes a great idea can survive on its own legs to generate capital.

There is enough money in the country for the startup scene. Hiding from Chors is also a huge headache unfortunately.


AI is in its infancy and a lot of AI applications can be taken up by startups that can be contracted by government agencies. This would be better than an uncompetitive environment where government workers are expected to invent the latest and greatest techniques.

Government have a role to play.
Like in Pakistan a 5 year old is judged at school by yhe marks he gets. Like that's important. There is no value on education they just value the number the child gets in an exam. Also there is no national curriculum that all follow. No teacher training etc. But your points are very valid

Fancy buildings are what we're good at. We are great at looking busy while doing nothing. The NASTP farce is hiring people like crazy these days and they have NO idea what they'll do with them. Their best plan so far is "Turkey Turkey please aap koi trainingses karado please?" - and of course they don't even know kya training...just..training...the closer you get, the harder it becomes to breath in the stench.

These things are exactly what they sound like. Babus hearing buzzwords, making buildings with those buzzwords as names, hiring random engineers, and hoping with some trainingses they can actually do something. It's exactly as stupid as it sounds.


IMHO I think the biggest problem is that there is no aim or goal. Just some babu liking the world artificial intelligence and hoping a building with that name will somehow do...something.
Why doesn't uncle babbu take a step to the side and seek out help/consultancy/advice if he doesn't have any true idea on what to do?

If they want to be egotistical and claim all credit and plant their face on everything then okay, but why not seek out assistance from others who are more knowledgeable?

They should do away with emphasis on exams and change focus to problem solving, innovation, results/outcomes, team work, presentation and change. The colonial education system was setup to control the masses and endorse them to work for the rich people.
