I'm surprised Pakistanis are happier than Chinese and Lankans. Especially since Sri Lanka is the most developed in South Asia.

Money did not give you happiness .and pakistan is happy not because of devaloupment but because people are happy in thier lives no matter what.

There is no connection between money and happiness

Nepal and bhutan are also not rich but happy

People have different standards of what happiness is. It is subjective measure, not an objective one.

Which is why I find it quite funny when Pakistanis try and use that as evidence in debates about development in India and Pakistan.
