Not a rational observation. Indonesia is also 'Islamized' without similar problems. Iran is 'excessively Islamized' but without similar problems (though with different set of problems). Egypt and Lebanon are hardly 'Islamized' but have similar problems. Somalia and Sudan are also not 'excessively Islamized' but have worse problems. 'All problems are nails because you have a hammer' is not a good strategy.

‘Indonesia is a lot more sober and rational. It is unlike Pakistan where enmity is picked up with everybody whether East, West or North.
You could not afford to cut the hands of all thieves otherwise the biggest thieves of all, the Army would be without hands. It is the Army aided by civil bureaucrats which steals peoples money.
You are changing your parameters. Now you are introducing the fuzzy concept of 'enmity'. Other than their problems with India, I don't think Pakistan has enmity with either Afghanistan or Iran. With China, they have an almost satellite relationship. You should keep searching for a better theory. Central role of military may be a good start. Extreme involvement in the affairs of Afghanistan may be another. Lack of good leaders is certainly an issue. The reasons are more pedestrian than peculiar. For that matter, Myanmar, Nepal or Sri Lanka are no great shakes either.

If no enmity with Afghanistan then why Pakistani soldiers are dying everyday on the Western border.
Because humans die all the time. Not all deaths are hostile actions by an enemy state. Many are killed fighting TTP, that is hostile Pakistanis inside Pakistan.

In next 2 years, we have to pay $72 billion back. But establishment is adamant that political situation will not be resolved. Their ego is bigger than their brain.
Imagine what the country had to do to just get $1 billion from IMF. Who will give us $72 billion?
Establishment created two fauji parties in Punjab and KPK to break PTI. This is the first time they got egg in their face. But the duffers want to keep PTI out at every cost. Duffers cant fix their mistakes. They just dont have the IQ.
If political situation is not resolved, economic situation will not resolve. But establishment does not want to reverse the regime change despite so much loss in reputation and economy.

Faujeeiat and Barelwiat, the two scourges of Pakistan.
Same hindutva chutiyays will have another brain freeze if you cite them Saudi example. The most Islamized country and a economic power house.
To be fair, I left out oil exporters since they don't have to work hard to succeed. But Indonesia is a good counterexample to OP's theory that "excessive Islamization" is the cause of problems. Malaysia is moderately Islamic, and they are not too shabby.
Most are multilateral or bilateral loans; they will just roll it over. Nothing is achieved by declaring default publicly.how is PTI run government going to payback $72 billion ? either way you are toast
postpone the day of reckoning
trade between Iran and Pakistan resembles one of enemies not neighbors
That is the story of most public debt.
