I think Astra has answered your question. Most of the Pakistan Defence budget, loans re-payment getting through money coming on the name of war of terror. Its known fact. Massive number of articles are ready to read on internet.
BS again!
Pakistani defence expenditure is $4 billion, USaid (military) counts for merely $0.4 billion, thats 10%. Another $0.3 billion is dedicated to economic aid and some of is used for correct budgetary deficiencies and dept remboursement, not all!
How do think ongoing mega projects are financed??
Military power is always backed by Polical, Economical Power and internal stability, you know what is happening at all three fronts in Pakistan.
Number of personnel in Armed forces does not create Power these days, as I sayed earlier many things are interlinked.
Nuclear arsenal and an effective infrastructure enhanced by one of worlds most determined armies in the world with numbers is not a pushover.
Internal stability has always been strong when we face external threats.
And may I know what industries you have Mango export ???? No no cotton too, thanks to Land of Pakistan which can produce it. And what about terror, still not official and taxed by Pakistan Gov.
Oh come on, where do you get your information from...some thrid grade Indian forum?
Only an Indian will deny the progress we've made during last 7 years.
Though personally I want to see pakistan a progressive, stable nation because in tomorrow's world single strong country is not going to play major role, rather a strong region may become very powerful and effective as you can see Europe, then both India and Pakistan should be stronger country. And we have started seeing this in many area where Pakistan and India has worked together Cricket matters, and few import and export fronts.
Bla bla bla....
Seen this a zillion of times, but in fact its your government which still has anti-Pakistan policies. Sabotage in SAARC affairs is a fresh example that your governmenment doesn't want to see us progress.
Takes two to tango, do your part and let us do ours.
And please do some thing to change the world's perception of Pakistan it will attract FDI.
Good Luck.
Again wake up and smell the coffee...we're way ahead in attracting FDI than any other country in the region. Yes India may have received larger amount but with more than $7 billion FDI in 2007 we have a better FDI vs GDP ratio.
Do some homework before posting.
