China is paying a lot to keep Pakistan afloat. I think China is pushing against India due to its sinking investment in Pakistan.

Haldiram ji, you are too pessimistic. Modi has brought acche din. Pakistan is going down the tube. No doubts.

Haldiram ji, you have very little idea of Punjabi Muslim psyche. Punjabi Muslim is 60% of Pakistan population. Punjabi Muslim always wants good life and is remarkably corrupt. We Indians either ignore jihad or we glorify it. We should do neither. Jihad is a political concept. Most jihadi are...

Jaish and Lashkar do not operate the way IS operates. Jaish and Lashkar are Paki army supported organizations. Did you see Jaish and Lashkar in Syria? Paki army needs a tight control over these people because they serve a political purpose of State of Pakistan. IS a a different animal. Good...

The use of jihad in India context is basically a war against India. These jihadi are just soldiers by another name. The traditional meaning of jihad does not matter. These jihadi are paid salaries by their organization and money is paid to their families in case of death. The people who join...

Somebody pays for Jihad. Nobody fights for free.

Effects of IMF: 1. Salaries of para-military forces may go unpaid. 2. Paki Army will have to reduce arms purchase. 3. States will have less money, so Police may reduce in size. Higher criminal activity will result into higher heavy handedness by ISI controlled elements thus taking public anger...

Pakistan's economy has very serious problems. 1. Most children go to Madarsa and these kids get no maths and science education. No vocational training either. Pakistan does not have money to put these kids in regular schools. 2. Even regular schools and universities have low standards when...

I think Pakistan has a real 20 billion USD funding gap per year. The net forex liability is better data point. Internal expenses can he met with printing money but external obligations still need dollars. So far money has been loaned by Saudi, uae, China etc to keep Pakistan afloat. Let us...

Your link does not work. Quality of arable land is better in Pakistan. Only issue could be WATER which can affect yield, specially for vegetables. Arable land per capita Pakistan 0.161 hectare Arable land per capita India 0.120 hectare Plus Pakistan has large amount of pastureland which gives...

My dear google is a friend. I have been researching on this since mid nineties, now 34 years. Arable area Pakistan % of total land - 39.7% Arable area India % of total land - 52.65% But land Pakistan has is 26% of India. Pakistan population 210 million compared to India 1.3 billion. You can do...

My viewpoint is that Pakistan monkey is not caged yet. It is still running amuck. India has wounded the monkey so it is showing even more aggressive behaviour like the bombing in Sri Lanka; and it may be planning more bigger attacks in India too. China's tech is also a serious worry for India as...

1. Pakistan has more agricultural land to population ratio compared to India. Pakistan can grow anything. This issue is economics as agriculture is subsidized by State. So it is more a question of how much money Pakistan State has to subsidize. Practically Pakistan can grow timato and Aalu as...

China will try to push blame onto India. India should show it the mirror. And India should move on. As I said elsewhere China WILL NOT fight for Islam. It will give weapons no doubt but its commitment is superficial. India MUST work with the West to defeat Chinese plan. And don't get confused...

HariPrasad-1, China is a very resourceful and powerful country. Remember China is spending one trillion US dollars on belt and road; which is far more than entire foreign debt (around 100 B) of Pakistan. So the clear fact is China does have the money to bail Pakistan out. If China is not...

How Pakistani economy improves by bomb blasts? May be Saudi aid increases. We will try to find correlation. Unfortunately blasts in Sri Lanka may have several actors involved including some in Sri Lankan government. This will take time to understand. Ethnic Tamil seem to be target again.

Pakistan is Mughal empire on fast forward. Started with a bang, will end with a whimper. Abhi to chaddi bhi bikegi; when loans come calling.

Absolutely. The impact of Indian trade is limited to food, maybe medicine. This is not enough to cause serious damage to Pakistani economy. And this trade is stopped only recently. Pakistan economy is in coma for last three years. Don't worry. Imran Khan has jinn power. Jinn will fix everything.

My point is simple that current economic condition of Pakistan IS NOT due to India. It is squarely due to internal issues of Pakistan. Pakistani has a habit of blaming India for every problem. The so called foreign hand. This foreign hand simply is not India. May be this is Saudi hand.

Trade between India and Pakistan is very low and its impact on Pakistan economy is overblown. Pakistan can import from so many places. Only visible impact is food prices as vegetables cannot be brought from far. Pakistan can import cotton from other sources. Nobody stops it. Chabahar port WILL...
