What's new

Pakistan 2012 GDP growth rate revised to 4.2% from 3.6%:World Bank

well ofcourse in 2010 Indian Growth rate was alot higher than Pakistan and comparable to china

but we are talking about the latest 2012 growth rate and the possible future.

Since i am not good at economics.i wont disagree with you but offer you to read the inflation of both pakistan and india in 2012 and do the maths as if Pak GDP growth rate is 3.6% than how much would be the indian

Inflation, consumer prices (annual %) | Data | Graph

Inflation in 2012

Pakistan 9.7%
India 9.3%

very small difference.if i go by your way than India growth rate for 2012 must be around 2.6% or 2.7% from 3.2% with 9.3% inflation

While pak to 3.6% from 4.2% with 9.7% of inflation

But What i think is that inflation is already considered within it.since even the IMF show 3.2% growth rate for india in 2012.

what you say?

You are right
 
they built them.

but limited

Blue and black are main lines and they cover every major city and town, dismantled line is very short and unprofitable.

The other line from Gwadar to turbat and Quetta is proposed line.

But you still wonder why Pakistan Railways got doomed.
 
its because in 2012 they introduced new policy

that stock exchange will not ask you where the money came from when somebody will buy shares or stock

so lots of black money poured it
 
You're not funny.

You are. I am :lol: @ you.

One year of slightly faster growth rate and Pakistanis are going berzerk. Wonder why.

In the end both countries had a s*tt*y growth rates in 2012 with Pakistan's population growth rate being higher. In the end, the per capita income growth rate would be similar for both countries in 2012.

I will congratulate Pakistanis when they touch 5 % growth. That's worth talking about.

Like I said before, we are in middle of a civil war/economic troubles, this is a reason to celebrate for us and aim even higher.
 
Pakistan was ALWAYS superior to india when it came to infrastructure, high-way road construction etc...

Take last 10 years of civil war out, and we shall see...Anyways, good for you if you're going ahead in infrastructure..

Let this civil war be over....let Pakistan stabilize..and we'll play 'infrastructure-infrastructure' all you want....

Don't make Hot air Claims
I asked a simple question do you have anything comparable to this thing
Any thing
The fact is sir this is only a temporary setback for the economy due to bad policy of the govt in Infra sector we are making huge gains & when the Govt in Delhi is changed you will see us bounce back till then enjoy

That's a mega Railway project, Pakistan even lacks basic railway services.

Sorry sir i am still a Noob in the forum
Sorry that i committed this Blaspheme
 
ok they are our own doing yet our country is doing good now economically compared to yours. why is the indian groth rate going down?

First of all, it is not right to compare both economies, they fall in different league.

Now the answer to your question> combination of several factors i.e huge CAD, policy paralysis making investors nervous, the recovery of US economy etc.

Considering

*The more than 100% rise in FDI in the last 2 months
*FBR target of tax collection increased by 22% though still short of the target but a huge increase compare to last year
*Budget deficiet decrease by 0.8% as of the first 2 months estimate
*Power crisis slightly reduced
*Load shedding in faisalabad to the industry reduced to 6 hours per day compared to last govt 16hours load shedding per day
*Already a slightly higher growth rate


Considering the growth rate of 4.2% last year.there are strong chances if we are not unlucky that pakistan might surprise us with close to 5% growth this year.if not than next year growt rate without any doubt will be around 6%
