Pakistanis Report Higher Sense of Well-being, Future Pessimism

[Prometheus]

sometimes i wonder what kind of world riaz lives in

la la land

 

[EasyNow]

Yay! Off topic: Bd stats prove what I've been saying for ages: miserable PDF Bangladeshis are not representative of our happy, easy-going and overall contented populous.

 

[EasyNow]

The claimed higher sense of well being is obviously a false construct made by those who wish to keep the nation fooled, but it falls apart when it meets the reality that generates the pessimism for the future.

Then again, this misplaced sense of well being tallies up with many of your own observations about the Pak collective daze ... Knowingly driving off a precipice, I think you said.

The classification of countries by Pew appears to be based on per capita income; high-income are "developed", middle-income "emerging" and low-income "developing" countries.

Oldsport, plagiarizing survey results doesn't make you a statistician, I have enough copq's and cogs under my belt to know what size data is true representation of trends. So sell your bull crap to others.

It's not just your lack of statistics knowledge, I also pity your lack of basic manners and understanding of the meaning of words like plagiarize.

I have yet to see the higher well being but have personal experience of the pessimism.

So you are among the 49% in the Pakistan Pew survey who do not feel they are better off now than they were in 2002 or 2007.

Nope. I feel much less secure and much less better off.. I felt much less secure and much less better off in 2007 than I did in 2003. The only time I felt better off was while NOT in Pakistan in 2012.

You are confirming what I said. You are among the 49% of Pakistanis who feel they are NOT better off than they were in 2002 and 2007. NOT better off includes those who feel they are WORSE OFF.
