What's new

Pakistani economy is now $350 Billion dollars (Nominal GDP) with population of 242 million people

Alhamdullilah we are doing okay.

Look at China. With China's sheer large population they are able to have a large economy.

Insh'Allah the same will be for Pakistan.


A large population is only beneficial if majority is educated and there is some semblance of law and order meaning a society where its best stay and contribute and not go to green pastures overseas.

A large population for Pakistan is nothing more than a heavy burden. We are running out of water at an alarming rate.
 
.
The way I look at is

Pakistan due to Mismanagement , can't control $350 Billion Dollars annually
It wastes it and can't track it's own money



"Mismanagement"


Examples

1- Buying expensive Oil instead of buying from Iran , Russia , Venezuela country to country discounts

2- Not finishing Iran-Pakistan gas line in 2014 would have yielded cheaper gas

3- Not investing more in Tidal Electricity by Karachi sea

4- Army of Motor cycles which drink up Petrol instead of Network of Buses

5- Not Opening free trade with Iran

6- Lack of Solar Energy farms in Balochistan

7- Not having Storage Depot for Oil to store 1 year supply


$350 Billion comes in left hand and then from right hand we give it back to others



The reason why all these actions were not taken is due to Stunted growth Syndrome it is 100% correct the people running the show have Stunted growth


70 Year problem
---------------------------------
The Biggest failure we have is we have we have 24/7 water running from Himalayas and 95% falls into sea


Plus we have Yearly Rain water as well



Pakistan is crashing and burning due to Incompetent leadership
that also includes people like neutrals who were part of APRIL fiasco against National Interest of Pakistan

And now smaller than Bangladesh's !!!!!!!!

Bangladesh has an economy of $397 billion with a population of only 165 million.

Thankyou "neutrals" for allowing Pakistan to fall behind Bangladesh through your ongoing sustained destablisation of Pakistan ...
Pakistan has the largest refugees to feed with limited resources. So Pakistan is doing well considerably.

There are no 350 Billion dollars my brother. We only get to spend 50 Billion per year. 15 Billion goes for Defence and 25 Billion of the reamining 35 Billion go towards servicing the debt.

We only get to spend around 10 Billion per year to run the country.

Recent Years

Sindh Budget was close to 8-10 Billion Dollar Range
Punjab gets around 12-14 Billion Dollar Range
KPK gets also around 6-7 Billion Dollar Range
Baluchistan gets 6-7 Billion Dollar Range (Due to CPEC getting CPEC project funds as well)

Military : 7-8 Billion Dollar for only 1 Million Soldiers (500,000 active , and 600,000 reserve)


These were figures just before April FISACO was played out


I don't understand why Currency Devaluation was done ?

Should have Reduced 1 Billion from Every Province = 4 Billion Surplus

Should have reduced 7 Billion from Army , 7 Billion Surplus all soldiers sit at Barracks and do physical training


That is 13 Billion USD in Surplus , and the fund should have been used to pay Massive downpayment on Loans in 1 year

Pakistan is clearly run by some idiots begging around like Bhikari from IMF for 1 Billion
by Devaluating currency , the Loan needed to be returned is increased x4 Times



Our Federal Reserve got destroyed from 27 Billion to 15 Billion and falling in 3 months Since April due to incompetent Leadership


We could have had 27 Billion USD reserves , and with Adjusted budget a 13 Billion Surplus like I explained to pay off the Loans had there been any logic used by folks at top instead of them signing signatures on documents

The fact that Pakistan still has not rebased it's GDP shows what kind of banana republic Pakistan is.

Nigeria rebased it's GDP in 2014. They found out that their economy was actually 60% larger than what reported. Went from 270 billion USD to 510 billion USD.

A correction the GDP is 383 billion not 350 billion as per Wikipedia. I would be surprised if our nominal GDP is close to 700 billion USD and PPP GDP close to 2 trillion USD.
You could be right about the $383 billion dollar figure.

Wikipedia quoted IMF statistics. Don't blame me, I just quoted what was reported.

Are you an idiot? How did you reach these conclusions?

Where is your source? What economic calculation or formula did you use to reach this assessment?

Other than creating mischief on a Green Pakistani forum what do you want?


The statistic used in wikipedia says it is quoting from IMF or International Monetary Fund. lol.

What is your source? :lol:


Ummm...Moron I am using statistics reported from IMF.

Where are you getting your information from? Your A/S/S?
Genius, in your own source of "wikipedia" it is a 2021 GDP Estimate.

Entire devaluation of your curency has happened post 2021, thus your GDP is $ has contracted.

If it was estimated at 347 in 2021 it will be less than 300 by now.

The only thing that has increased is your population & Inflation making your GDP Per Capita further going down.

Pakistani members need to stop comparing their economy to Bangladesh. Our exports will cross $58 billion in 2022 whereas you dont have stability in your country to complete 5 year tenure of a government.

Bangladesh export earnings cross $50 billion in FY22

In 90's Pakistani politicians distracted people of Pakistan and developed a very common narrative of today "India is 7 times larger and we cannot compete with them". This narrative is one of the reason Pakistani people mindset now have inferior image of Pakistan. Today pakistan is compared to Bangladesh.

With what's going on and how politicians and corrupt bajwa is trying to develop another narrative of superior India, it won't be too long when pakistan will be comparable to Afghanistan and Somalia not Bangladesh. Bangladesh have done pretty well in keeping population under control, exporting Bangladeshi diaspora worldwide, hanging political opponents, advertising democracy which is fake from the core but enough to fool the west, and having entire population to work including women. In Pakistan half of population which is women sits home while out of other half which is male only 25 percent wants to work, rest want free money but massive imports. Don't wanna sound pessimistic but pakistan ka Allah hi hafiz hai until there is a revolution French or Turkish style.

So don't worry my Bangladeshi friend. Everything will be a'right for you.

Actually I want Pakistan to have a very large population.

Already dwindling water supplies, shortages bcz of excess usage + waste.. & a lot of ppl to provide them water (Big Population),Soon we will be fighting for water... destruction of Agri land, a big population but less opportunities, a lot of poor to feed -__-

big families but half of them unemployed or working on low paying jobs 0_0

look at Israel (5m population) but GDP is same as Pakistan (209 million ppl), Australia (30m population), new Zealand, Canada (32+ million) , European countries all of them have 2,3,5 times the size GDP & 8× GDP per Capita+ highest standards of living+ govt can feed them + provide all sorts of facilities bcz they don't have a lot of mouths to feed...

On the other hand we have a lot of Agri land (most of them getting destroyed for housing societies) but still we've to import lots of basic things like onions,tamatar even though we produce a lot of them bcz we've too many ppl 🙄

Less ppl the better you can take care of them & u can provide them a good education + opportunities & less problems you've to deal with..

This is the documented economy. The parallel undocumented or Grey economy is estimated to be at least 50% of the documented economy. 350+175 Billion $ is the real GDP.

The undocumented economy may be twice the size of the documented one, for a total exceeding a trillion dollars.
