13-14 out of 20 listed countries are Muslim-majority

Missing Turkey on this list though. Turkey has outperformed expectations in their crunch cycle and its on path to post net growth. Hopefully next year or two we will see Turkey too on this list and by that time, it would have surpassed $30,000 GDP per capita (PPP) iA

Well most of those muslim-majority countries are ranked over 100 when it comes to the Ease of doing business ranking. There is a huge difference it making it to the list of "Top 20 improvers" and "Top 20 countries in Ease of doing business" and this applies for India as well and that's something we should all strive for

top 20 improvement list is also important for you to be in the list of top 20 in ease.

there was a time during Musharraf Era when Pakistan was improved in this list rapidly and was way ahead of her neighbors that includes China....than comes PPP goons which ruined everything.
