I don't buy too much into what Goldman Sachs or Bloomberg or any other West driven institutions say, even WSJ for that matter. They have always been aiming to portray BRIC countries as 'a bubble', mainly the IC. Bloomberg had predicted India's current account deficit to be $44 billion this...

Damn - Where is the emoticon for 'puke'?

This was always on the cards. I was having an argument with some posters regarding FTA with Chinese - here. http://www.defence.pk/forums/economy-development/53773-pakistans-economy-news-updates-14.html#post1350557 Now slowly the Chinese intent comes out with this to start. Now what's...

India Parliament has passed a resolution that Pakistani Kashmir legally belongs to India & should be recovered one day. Not sure if it includes Aksai Chin though. I think it does.

You just blew off the cover of our secret plan :lol:

Sort of. Last thing India needs is a Pakistan with its leaders only diplomatically meddling in Kashmir. The day they stop promoting terrorism will be the day Kashmir suddenly appears on every other country's to do list. What we need is an insanely obsessed Pakistan using whatever means to gain...

Bloody fool CM. What was the need of giving such a public statement for something which is so bloody obvious? It is as foolish as CM of Maharashtra or Tamilnadu giving statement that they don't want to be part of BD either.

Indian Govt should seriously take a note of this. It very well could mean Pakistani leaders may actually have started being more sensible. Does not bode well for India. Their flawed policies towards Kashmir must continue from India's POV.

The ineptness Chinese policy makers manifest is simply astonishing. They are trying their best to suppress rising India & make a 'competition free' Asia for themselves. Obviously they can prosper & grow much better by cooperating with India & making an amenable relationship. Instead they are...

:lol: :lol: So BPM 6 gives you 20 times the size of BPM 5. :rofl: I have basic knowledge of both as part of my work. In context of exports & size - the only major difference is realignment of exports & service. Some categories of services in BPM 5 have to be included as exports in BPM 6 -...

That's not even 2% a year. How do you call it 'hoping for the best'?

They are getting paid for what they offer. Shouldn't that be sufficient in modern world?

Calling TechLahore.

Keep out if you don't have anything to add except invectives and emotions. And yes we are concerned about our deficit to China. That's why we rejected the FTA that was offered to us on a platter. Whats more - last I checked this was a thread on Pakistan's economy.

You have chosen to respond with emotions rather than facts & figures. It is good only if your businessmen were competing successfully. There are no signs of that in last 15 years, no chance possible for next 15 years at least given the chinese attitude. Look at the Chinese official figures...

In all this 'cheerful' pieces of news, has anyone really looked at the trade imbalance with Chinese? Trade disparity to be taken up with Chinese premier | Business | DAWN.COM Taller than mountain people are not interested in buying what Pakistan has to sell. This means potentially zero...

Strangely, this came after Pakistan rejected US requests of expanding the military operation.

Then why has BD govt never asked for a formal apology from India? Anything better than stooge/munafiq/dalal theories? Even Khaleda Zia when she was in power never asked for an apology. And at least all the 'analysts' here consider her to be the ultimate patriotic PM of BD given her anti-india...

As per Pakistan's textbooks, they did nothing wrong in 1971. Now how can they formally apologize? Won't the youth ask why textbooks are manufactured? But what's wrong in returning the 200 m dollars that they formally owe to BD? It should not be a big deal for Pakistan. They will easily be able...
