This is 2023. Pakistan since 1947 have been developing in some way or other, We have huge loans, and economy has corrupt people leading.

This article puts light on some positive resources that we must work on to build some muscle and strengthen a few other ones.

The Youth Revolution

According to Wikipedia, “Pakistan is the world’s fifth-most-populous country. The population is young: in 2019 34.8% were thought to be 14 or younger, though in 1990 this had been much higher at 43.7%. In 2010 the figure for those aged 24 or less was 62.19%.” These show us that we have fertile land… these people are future, they could decide the destiny, next 40 years or may be 100 years. We are already at the bottom. They need to be honest, hardworker and patient. We need to train them for their future. Support them in every way possible, give attention to the needs. Educate, update them with skills, empower them, and let them think and do for Pakistan.

Empowering Through Education

Pakistan Literacy Rate 1981-2023 is 58.00%. We have skilled and high educated adults: Doctors, Engineers, Scientists

Taming the Debt Dragon

“The national debt of Pakistan was forecast to continuously increase between 2023 and 2028 by in total 186 billion U.S. dollars (+83.59 percent). The national debt is estimated to amount to 408.5 billion U.S. dollars in 2028.” That is a huge problem. The trap is unresolveable. We need to put some systemic effort on this.

Unlocking Export Potential

Export needs to go up, and Expenditures needs to be cut down. We have huge import bill, chances are these could grow. We should have export partners in the countries where we have good relationships.

Tackling Unemployment

Per-capita salaries or employment rate needs to be raised. An internal effort and planning for next 5 years could help us in acheiving this.

Seizing Opportunities

The inflation is trible at the moment. Usd to PKR is 300+. Pakistan has poor policy in Governance. International community has to enforce many laws via UN, IMF, World Bank, Asian Bank and other institutes. There is only one rule of nature. The people of a country, if they do not want to change, no body can change their destiny.

We need to ask ourselves, “Do I want to change it”, if your inner voice comes in than it is possible, other wise it is not. Pakistanio… ap phas gaye hain!!

The Path Forward

  1. Be Honest If some honest people of Pakistan start focussed work to grow on strengths we have some good chances in 20 years. For example, Educate 90% of 34% of the youth in next 15 years, or make them skilled workers in emerging fields. 43 universities only in KPK. 500 on the average gives us 21,000 graduates a year.

  2. Transfer Knowledge and Skills
    Around High skilled people are Engineering, Medical and IT Professionals, We can train people back at home. We can push skilled people to upskill more in their field. Just by doing it 10 thousand such people every year, we can easily see further oppurtunities bloom in next 5 years. A similar Ambitious scholarship to 14-18 years old, young to train in productivity yeilding skills and soft-skills. A talent-cum-skilled program where a 20 years young people should be given 7 year intensive training in high valued stream will help build strength. Read Pakistan Stats Report

  3. Produce localy and innovate People of Pakistan are creative, and talented. We must make our own creations, make inovative solutions for local market, buy local products and services. Produce own roti variations. Advance in Food and Agri preservation and production. Work on efficient ways to management in labour. Training labours upto the international level. For example, innovation at the primary level, secondary level and tertiary level of schooling. A simple programe to bring simple ideas with minute pain removal of the user. Introduce leadership skill among young. Introduction of healthcare and technical training at 16-18 years of age.

  4. Ambition building Activities for young age 18-24 You have to transfer this energy in the youth, keep them focused, make them work hard! Plan for it.

  5. Focused Training and Specialization Train your 24-30 one into energy shells, fill them with ambitions, it’s never too late to start a fight for your own survival.
