This is the best I could find

Even if Pakistan did grow by 5.7% which is the first time I am seeing so high a number for CY15, East Pakistan with 6.8% will beat you. Sorry

Are they projections or are real data? If projections then I am not interested.
 
Why is Pakistan going down after 2016?

Projection changes within months.Most of the economic indicators are positive along with the decrease in terrorist activities.

In late 2013 IMF projections,they predicted 4% growth rate for Pakistan in 2017-18 and today they have set 4.7% for this year.Infact for Pakistan,they change the projection atleast 3-4 times in a single year.

So u mean these projections have a fragile tolerance both towards + or - .

I agree though considering the positive indicators, most likely the growth rate will accelerate further onwards 2016.

Well I am a theorist in economics but not without practical understanding of some logic.

Can u explain us what steps Pakistan is taking structurally to increase this growth rate?
 
let us hope. India has 7.6% and shall cross 8% in next year. hopefully under the mature leadership of Nawaz {akistan shall also supass the prediction of something around 4%. Just control the inflation.

Inflation has decreased substantially over the past year so interest rates should keep falling which in turn will ofc boost our growth rate. Reserves too have grown to around 18 billion now and expected to reach 20 billion by the end of this year. Two years ago the reserves were down on 3 billion.

Fall in commodity prices pushes inflation further lower - The Express Tribune

Pakistani rupee gains as inflation at 11-year low points to further rate cuts
