Look at the color coding. Turkey is in the top group 1-40 while India and Pakistan are in second group of 40 from 41-80. Most surprising is Russia falling in the 3rd group from 81-120.

Our infrastructure have taken big hit due to undue foreign imports, and transit aid to aid to Afghanistan,
Pakistan need to start imposing heavy duty on imports, which are available or produced in Pakistan, where as all transit trawlers should pay, infrastructure and handling cost.

A drizzle or a small rally in Karachi brings this whole infrastructure down. This is the situation of the industrial hub of the country. Just be realistic.
I think you have not been stuck in traffic there recently.

Haq's Musings: Pakistan Ranks in the Middle For Infrastructure and Logistics in 2014
The World Bank’s (WB) Logistics Performance Index (LPI) ranks Pakistan at number 72 for 2014, out of 160 countries.
LPI is ranking is based the efficiency of customs, border management and clearance as well as the quality of trade and transportation infrastructure. It also comprehends the quality of logistics services, the ability to track and trace consignments and the frequency at which shipments correctly reach their destinations on schedule.
The first LPI survey conducted in 2007 ranked Pakistan at number 68, which fell to a low of 110 in 2010 before recovering to 71st position in 2012.
Logistics performance is an important indicator of a nation's level of development and its ability to participate in global trade.
Another similarly important indicator is the ranking of a country on OECD survey ofeconomic complexity compiled by Massachusetts Institute of Technology. This indicator comprehends the diversity of products ad services traded and the number of trading partners. The more diverse the trade and trading partners, the higher the rank.Pakistan ranks 91 on this index among 144 countries as of 2012. It ranks higher than single-commodity oil exporting nations like Iran and Saudi Arabia but lower than thenewly industrialized Asian nations.
While Pakistan has made some progress on logistics and trade, it still has a long way to go to improve the lives of its citizens through infrastructure improvements and diversification of its products and services trade. Timely execution of Pak-China industrial corridor plans will hopefully help Pakistan make progress on this front.

Thank you for sharing this.
Pakistan and China vowed to expedite work on the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor during a meeting between Pakistani Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif and visiting Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi here on Friday.
China has been a trustworthy friend of Pakistan, and friendship with China is the cornerstone of Pakistan's foreign policy, said Sharif.
Pakistan is looking forward to welcoming a state visit by Chinese President Xi Jinping at an early date in 2015, the Pakistan-China Year of Friendly Exchanges, the prime minister said, adding that his government believes the visit will bring the strategic cooperative partnership between the two countries to a new level.
He said Pakistan attaches great importance to the Pakistan- China Economic Corridor and is willing to work vigorously with China to build the corridor and get early harvest.
For his part, the Chinese foreign minister extended great appreciation to Sharif for his unremitting efforts to promote China-Pakistan ties.
China and Pakistan are "iron brothers," he said, adding the iron brotherhood between the two countries "will never go rusty."
The upcoming visit by President Xi to Pakistan this year will provide a powerful impetus to the development of bilateral relations, said Wang.
He said the two countries should push forward both economic cooperation and security cooperation at the same time. China and Pakistan should boost economic cooperation in key fields such as the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor, port, energy, transportation infrastructure and industries while jointly combating terrorism to maintain peace and stability of the region, said Wang.
