Bangladesh overtakes Pakistan in attracting foreign investors

[N.Siddiqui]

Pakistan is still getting more FDI than BD, and it's the region which develops and not individual countries.

FDI inflow to Pakistan still better

Despite being ranked below Bangladesh in the Milken index, Pakistan is still getting more foreign direct investment (FDI),specifically from the Middle Eastern countries,than Bangladesh, said Policy Research Institute Executive Director Ahsan H Mansur.

In PDF, we are supposed to see things through the lens of Pakistan's strategic benefits. If BD grows, that is fine for them. However, how that growth benefits Pakistan is the reason and purpose why this forum exists. This is not a global development forum.

bangladesh developing or not has 0 impact on Pakistan. It is some 2750 kms away from Pakistan and we don't have anything in common with them. This is further exacerbated, since we also have little relations with them. Even Saudi Arabia and Qatar are geographically closer to Pakistan.

Only the countries that we border and have relations with, really impact Pakistan. They are Iran, Afghanistan and China. Unfortunately of these 3, Afghanistan's internal issues have the biggest impact on Pakistan as events from 1979 till today have shown.

many of those that wanted Pakistan to come into existence also wanted what is best for the ummah. Bangladesh is part of the ummah, so i can be happy for them if something good comes their way. supporting Palestine hasnt done much for Pakistan, should be drop our support for them as well? most of the technologically advanced countries are atheistic in nature and not Islamic, so should we remove Islamic from the Islamic Republic of Pakistan to speed up Pakistan's development? when we go for Hajj and Umrah to Saudi and spend money there instead of Pakistan, should be build a Kaaba in Karachi instead so we can save dollars?

Does Palestinian authority operate anti-Pakistan activities ? Better tell the Bengalis what ummah means. Pakistan government always offered olive branches to Bangladesh but never saw any reciprocity. If they do, tell us about it.

Not surprised, as long as there is Indian sponsored terrorism in Pakistan, we will see this trend continue. I was thinking of buying a small piece of land in Gawadar but am relcutant to do so.

Afghanistan should be at the top of our priority list. No other country has so much impact on our national security than that of Afghanistan. Our enemies will of course say otherwise.

do all Bengali's hate Pakistan? no. so lets not act like they do, and end up making them all hate us and turning this into a self fulling prophecy.

Why should we care what they think or say? They mean nothing to us..........

you take what you want from islam, i take what i want.

EXACTLY!.......bangladesh is too far, too different and too irrelevant to matter to Pakistan. But as we can see on PDF, bangladeshis are obsessed with Pakistan and Pakistanis even though they mean nothing to us.........

The fact that Bengalis were once part of Pakistan, that is a historical accident. They should have never become a part of Pakistan to begin with. There is no cultural compatibility at all other than Perso-Arabian sounding names. It is Afghanistan which has the most compatibility to unite with Pakistan for every reason.

That is like saying that Pakistan was once a part of the british empire so now we should be obsessed and concerned with England.........

you take what you want from islam, i take what i want.

Where does it say in Islam that you have to try to curry favour with those who are pro-indian idol-worshippers and are against Muslim Pakistan????????...........

We should be concerned with England only because it has now become a hub of anti-Pakistan activities.

Chill. Please don't destroy the environment and if one does not have anything postive or constructive to say, better keep silence.

Bangladesh and Pakistan have different challenges and dynamics so tbf, we can't compare.

Anyways, I will request all participants to please be polite.
Thank You!

It means it is true that Malaysia has stopped a PIA plane to leave KL before PIA pays back the arrears. Why so? I thought America is worried about the strength of Pakistan. Now, SA wants its $3 billion returned and Malaysia wants its money back.

What has really happened to mighty Pakistan?

So is it true that you have sent 500,000 of your women including the married ones to work as prostitutes in india for indian hindus and sikhs? With a further 50,000 being sent each year for the same purpose??????.......here is the evidence.......... :

Growing number of Bangladeshi women in Indian brothels

South Asia is the fastest-growing region for human trafficking in the world

PS Your obsession with Pakistan and Pakistanis is hilarious....................IF what I say is NOt true then leave PDF for good...........

where does it say all Bengali muslims are like that, and that we should hate all of them? in that case Bengali muslims and the entire ummah can say the same thing about us after we handed over Afia Siddique to the Americans?

bengalis on PDF state otherwise. ANY way, WHERE is the evidence that the bengalis are NOT anti-Pakistani?

having met many Bengalis, and having one Bengali in my family, i can say that many of them arent anti-Pakistan. you are as extreme as the Awami League. you are just the Pakistani version of it. your nonsense helps fuel the Awami League propaganda.
