Impressive development between 70' and 2018 just tremendous what Pakistan could have been we can learn from Iran's local development
Pakistan had a similar mind set of local Human Resources, local Industries but it was decayed and we got addicted to Aid and IMF help
Iran
Remained focused on Local Industries
Auto manufacturing plans in Iran
Invested heavily in PHD research and growth
Developed
STRONG Foreign Policy
Miiles ahead in Medicine , Medical Research and Hospital care
Schools and Universites producing High quality Students
Successful Space Research and Missile Program
Iran still showcases their Farsi / Iranian language
Making own Construction Machines / Equipment and farming equipment
Pakistan
Let other firms sell items in Pakistan destroyed local industries
Addicated to kit assembly
We exported our PHDs and doctors to Middle east and Western worlds
Got Addicted to handout gifs from USA and destroyed our Foreign Policy
Still stuck in old 70's era and lack fo funds in Medical sector
Students have to buy special courses from overseas to stand out to go overseas for studies
Still found way to move Missile program
Pakistan has decayed Urdu and relies in English a bit excessively
We continue to import stuff for farming , construction machines and other heavy machinery
Enough said making own power plant component /Turbine
