Not only poor quality but on subjects like commerce, law, business etc which have limited use in developing country. Consider this. When you look at CPEC projects most of the workers are Paks. But then you will notice a young looking smartly dressed Chinese. He will be the engineer. We have millions of young. Why do not have engineers? To build fighters, missiles, tanks, ships, aircraft carriers, roads, bridges, dams, hospitals, sewer systems, cars, trucks, railways, trains etc which is what countries like Russia, China or USA can do we need -
- civil engineers
- mathematicians
- chemists
- metallurgists
- airspace engineers
- physicists
- etc
When Pakistan buys from China, Russia, USA or France in fact it is buying their manpower knowledge. Why don't we have manpower knowledge? The reason is thirty years ago the generation of American, Russian, Chinese who make these things were studying such subjects at universities while ours were tossing around, doing useless subjects or being brainwashed in madaris. How many millions do we have in madaris? What good are they? Are they going to build motorways, design jet fighters or nuclear submarines? No, they are only good for chasing blasphemers down the street and lynching them.
And producing millions of scientists, airspace engineers, mathematicians, physicists will be good for Pakistan. Yes, they will not all get jobs in the local economy but neither do commerce graduates. However as the surplus scientists go abroad and start making name for themselves some will return and lay the foundation of a knowledge economy.
I read a book about how Soviet Union in 1930s aware that it was behind Germany and Western Europe under Stalin launched 5 year plans to bring it with par to west. And all the effort went on -
- churning out science graduates in 100,000s. Mathematicians, physicists, chemists etc
- building up steel industry
- building up coal industry
- building up rail network
- etc
The result was by WW2 Russia had the scientific manpower to design, manufacture more tanks, more aircraft, more guns, more steel then Germany could leading to that country eing defeated despite incredible losses by Soviet Union. The reason was the generation of Russians numbering in millions who had graduated [not from madaris] but from scientific universities had matured and went on to to design/make the Kalashnikov rifles [used in Pakistan today], the T-34 ]lot of PA tanks are inspired by Russian T-series], the Mig aircraft [many of the PAF F-7s are Chinese copies] and today that talent produces the Sukhois, Migs, S-400s etc.
