Pakistan will turn into 'Technological Superpower' in 10 years, says Fawad

[BATMAN]

it seems very unrealistic and we are much far behind from this.It will take at least 20 to 30 years provided govt is actually able to improve education system and industrial structure improves

It seems realistic provided, socio-economic stability.

All components of a computer, a manned Mars program, Cold Fusion... All this will be made in Pakistan by 2030 ?

Whatever, In next 5 years i see Indian made jF-17.

Pakistan will turn into 'Technological Superpower' in 10 years, says Fawad
Ali Ahmed Jul 11 2020


Federal Minister for Science and Technology, Chaudhry Fawad Hussain has said that his government wants to turn Pakistan into a ‘technology superpower’ in 10 years.

In a series of tweets on Saturday, the federal minister said that under the vision of Prime Minister Imran Khan, the projects of ‘Made in Pakistan’ were adopted by his ministry. “If the projects were not adopted, stuff ranging from sanitizer to masks would either not be found in Pakistan or would have been sold in black markets.”



The minister said that today the country is not only meeting its own requirements but is also minting millions through the exports of these products.

“In the next phase, Health City is being set up on 200 acres of land in Faisalabad and Science and Technology Special Economic Zones will be built in Lahore, Karachi, and Islamabad. In these zones, the technology industry and business will get special incentives.”

“Our real goal is to make Pakistan a technology superpower in 10 years,” he said.

Fawad also called upon other multinationals of other countries to invest in Pakistan, offering them tax benefits and location incentives.

“I call upon multinationals of USA, China, Russia, Korea, Japan, and EU to join hands with us rest assure Pakistan will ensure the most competitive environment and most relaxed tax structure for tech business our doors are open,” announced Chaudhry.

Technological superpower? No, but in 10 years time Pakistan could potentially be on the right track to becoming a decent scientific and technological power. That would be a commendable achievement in itself.

There are ONLY two superpowers at the moment, China and america with Russia having the potential to become one too. ALL other countries are way too far off in becoming superpowers.

These are his tweets:

He used the word "manzil" which can be roughly translated to target/aim/goal.
Major difference saying our aim/target/goal is this or that or saying we will do this or that, and the article title suggests later.

Pakistans IT industry is worth around 15-20 billion USD. IT exports hit over 1+ Billion (1.2 billion) this year for the first time ever. IT exports are Pakistans fastest growing export sector by far growing around 40-50% annually.

I would not be surprised if Pakistans IT industry was a juggernaut in 10 years. We should have a 5 year goal of increasing our IT exports to 4-5 billion USD and within 10 years 15-20 billion USD.

Before he came on the scene MoST was considered a joke and a 'punishment' ministry. Now it's on the radar and he's got people talking about it and is evoking public interest. I'm sure nobody remembers any previous federal ministers of MoST. Leadership isn't about being a master of the trade, but having a vision and cutting through the red tape and get things done. Fawad Chaudhry has a big mouth but it seems the guy can deliver.

I dream about the day we really become a superpower and send all those jokers politicians outside from our milky galaxy.
