Human Development Index 2019: Pakistan ranks lower than all South Asian countries

[fitpOsitive]

any position below 50 is non-conducive but is not the same...I am sorry China is not the same as Syria or Afghanistan

See, Pakistanis are in poor conditions, and we are not only aware of that, but we are also working towards that. Majority has this realization, and for majority, education and betterment is the priority(just like India).

But in the middle of that, an Indian steps forward and says: O Pakistanis, you guys are not in good conditions, you guys are bhikari and what not. Well, we be like :

You guys think we don't know what are our problems, and why they are in first place? Both India and Pakistan are different, and we are different in many many ways. Even if our problems seems the same, but their solution is different, trust me.
Just look at fighter jet projects and many such projects. You guys always criticize us, but have you ever recognized what we have achieved besides all odds, and what India couldn't besides all support? I know our achievements are few, but we are moving, while India is in full mode of going into hibernation for at least next 30 years.

I think the mud slinging is equally ferocious both ways..and because PDF is a Pakistan heavy forum, the amount of mud slinging against India tends to dominate here...but the same can be said of India heavy forums..with Global climate change looming ahead it is time for serious reconciliation else we will see 50-60 crore dead in a span of 10 years starting 2050, here in the subcontinent alone. and the rest of the survivors left as malnourished and impoverished as 1980s Ethiopia...but we all know no reconciliation will happen in South Asia, so the best is for the ones with means to relocate to the West before that

 

[YeBeWarned]

Ur spot on but the problem wont go away, why? Because even PTI appointed utter morons and dumbos like buzdar and mehmood khan to run provinces. Idiots who cant even talk, never read a book in their lofe, low IQ yes men. What can be expected?

We need better people doesn't matter which party they belong to, thing is our cream of society the highly educated youth is busy is things like Student march, mera vagina meri marzi , rather than joining politics to become part of the system and change it . They want things to change by posting on social media , not the actual work . It feels sad to say but are not a hard working , honest to our country type nation .

 

[KhanBaba2]

But the above does in NO WAY suggest that it is Pakistan which is the nation with the highest number of severely malnourished and extreme poor as indians on PDF are suggesting. Guess which country that is..... :

Why the smileys. Are you playing one upmanship based on the life of the poor and destitute.

 

[Sheikh Rauf]

Gov is gaining momentum slowly but suerly we will come on top insha'Allah.
No one is suffering in Pak its just some business people not making 200% profit. Spending on education, medical and security(police) sud be periority.

 

[Kabira]

Human development index is where Pakistan will never do well for long time. 60% of Indians defecate on railway tracks/openly. 21% of Indians live under poverty defined by WB $1.90 vs 4% for Pakistan. Bihar have higher HDI then Pakistan

Clearly this has little to do with poverty and indicators that matter for HDI like gender equality, girl education etc India government has done well in terms of gdp growth, revenue which is then spent on people. Pakistan have less inequality income wise but goverment is poor as **** with just 11% of tax to GDP vs 17% for India.

 

[Dr-who]

Pakistan has improved hdi in absolute numbers, but the rate of improvement is less then other nations hence we fell back in rankings. Curious to know the district & province wise hdi rankings within Pakistan, has the investment in human capital paid off in Kpk?

I hear many Pakistanis say how their religion/faith can shield them from evil yet it can't protect them from Polio, dengue fever and starvation. Worse thing is that Moualnas in our society preach its okay to be surrounded by poverty, disease and violence as long as we don't copy the evil immoral West.

Psychologically the Muslim world went into severe shock after European powers defeated Muslim powers one by one, the response of Muslim world was quite interesting, Instead of adopting Western education and ideals the various Islamic movements that sprung up during colonization instead called for Muslims to totally reject Western technology and education but instead stay in a bubble of gone by days of ''Islam Golden Age''. Muslims have accepted their fate as intellectually inferior to Western world but instead has claimed moral superiority over Europeans. This is the reason why you see many Muslim call Europeans and Non Muslims immoral while living in a pile of dung. People will deny it but even here on PDF we have members who openly said how they are better then everyone because of their religion while living in a country that has worse poverty then war torn Syria.

But we have best roads in South Asia.. lol

Same way as Pakistan airforce is stronger than that of India.

And I have no surprise that your post has no like except one of mine.

I don't care about likes but the truth, to be honest I'm a little surprised I haven't been banned again because a particular Moderator keeps banning me for writing the truth.

@Chakar The Great

You're saying this on a forum devoted to spending more on the military?

Maybe you should take your head out of the proverbial and have a look around at how many threads there are discussing a whole variety of social issues.

Worse thing is that Moualnas in our society preach its okay to be surrounded by poverty, disease and violence as long as we don't copy the evil immoral West.

Can you please share 1 example. I've never heard this in my life.

Have a read of this to understand what HDI index measures.

We need to work harder on these things. I'll give PTI it's 5 years, the progress on HDI will be an indicator of their success.

Ya that is true. It's my experience as well. Only few moderators find fault with very neutral posts. A simple question to you. Has webmasters or Irfan baloch ever banned you? I know that your answer will be no. Some moderators ban members because they don't like that post they are least bothered whether it is as per the the norms and rules of form or not while some members don't do anything except abuse but still they are allowed to do whatever they are doing. so in my opinion we should not expect much from PDF moderators. if are banned, you don't post or discuss somewhere else. when your ban is lifted, you can discuss here.

While there are some extremist minded mods but one in particular is a nasty person overall, he/she gets offended at every little things while at the same time allows his own extremist buddies to abuse people and make fun of Ahmadi and Hindus in particular. I did a experiment before when I made fun of cow urine or abused India I was never even warned but the moment I questioned certain extremism practices in Pakistan or whenever I raise voice over Uighur issue I get warning. This forum is now getting similar to that silly Indiandefence forum, which is sad really, we had some good members from Pakistan and India who don't even post anymore.

On the contrary, many Islamic countries are rich.. some are richest in the world. South Asian countries are poor because of over population. The resources available to them is simply not sufficient to sustain their population comfortably.

Gulf Arabs are only rich because of Oil, they haven't given the world anything really. Once their masters get angry with them the Arabs will be at each other throats just like they are in Iraq, Syria, Libya and Egypt.
