What caused overpopulation in Pakistan?

Nobody talks or writes of agriculture. We got way too much fertile land:

Too much f**king, not enough contraception caused overpopulation in Pakistan.

 

[R Wing]

Fertile land didn't help.

But the conservative resistance to family planning and contraception has been a big hurdle. Obviously, instead of getting creative and/or implementing their writ properly, successive governments ceded more and more space --- as a result, the public awareness campaigns and other stuff totally finished. I still remember the "chaabee" family planning promotions that used to be pretty common in my youth. Hardly ever saw them again in the past 2+ decades.

 

[nope]

I know its gonna sound weird but its an another form of religious extremism
whenever there is talk of population control the mullah idiots always rail about Yahoodi sazish i remember back in the early 2000's when they were railing against the polio vaccine how it was the conspiracy to reduce the Muslim population

Pakistan population since nearly doubled

Think about those people in rural areas with 15 kids....
Like most of those people are uneducated.

So the Saudis were secretly secular the whole time? Or was it their desert environment cannot support such a large population?

Saudi and the Gulf Arab population growth has been staggering considering all thing things its set to increase by one third I think, when got there independents they were just a smattering of Bedouin tribes its nothing like Pakistan in particular and south Asia in general

poverty and the fact most of Pakistan population is rural doesn't help

then why didn't ur parents used birth control device????? one less retarrrdddd on this forum wouldn't hurt.

calm down cupcake don't bring parents into it I don't wanna bring yours in they have been through enough looking at you

I think it is because less women who works. Working women usually doesnt like to have many children. If men and women work within a family, more difficult to raise children.

Women who dont work see more accomplishment with raising successful kids, where working women see both their carrier and their kids as accomplishment ( half/half)

There's no over population in Pakistan, only feudalism, corruption and lack of education.

Come on this is easy

Hamari farigh/waili qaum ko ata kya ha siwai “shadi” ke….seriously its always about shadi.

Marriages result in children

Shadi isn't the problem. Shadi Kay Sath Kia krna hy, ye ni Bataya jata ispe educate ni Kia jata ye problem Hy. Bivi bachy paida krne ki machine ni Hy ye samjaana prna Hy hamy society ko. Education is the issue here. Being a Muslim, we should always promote nikah, and being a good citizen, we should plan our families and its growth.

Its the same reason why theres overpopulation in rest of the subcontinent:

- Reduced infant mortality (advances in medicine)
- Increased food production/ availibility of food (food can be imported from global chain)

Contrary to developed nations, the subcontinent is still not a fully industrialized society. And there lies the reason. People get the benefit from advances of the developed countries (more food and modern medicine) but havent yet reached high income level or a consumer based life (enjoyment, recreational).

Yes thanks to their food imports. You seriously think you can bring a population to anything close to a hundred million in a desert environment like the Arabian peninsula? It's biologically impossible:

You're Norwegian right? Ever wondered why your country has barely five million people despite being larger than Pakistan? The pics explain it all:

Lack of a social safety net.
People see children as their safety net in old age, so the more the better, just in case.

If the country had a proper social security mechanism to care for old people, then people would produce fewer children.
