Does Pakistan have a brighter future than India?

Future lies within our hands, we Pakistanis can make things better. We have to write future ourselves, Remember always stand for the right and start social act from your home, I am a Pakistani and I am extremely positive about my country I spread positive words, interacts with foreigners and highlight the good side of my Pakistan, people here are smart, intelligent, religious but they have been left ignorant, we have to wake them up and let them know about their importance, remember ITS NEVER TOO LATE TO MAKE A GOOD CHANGE

1. Your statement - "India has been considered the next big thing for more than two decades now but the growth story is really dismal" Answer - Real GDP of India in 1993 - 284 Billion$ Real GDP of Pak in 1993 - 67 Billion$ Real GDP of India in 2015 (June) - 2.47 Trillion$ Real GDP of Pak in 2015 (June) - 284 Billion$ By the above - Indian economy has grown 9 times in about 22 years while Pakistan's has grown about 4 times... 2. Your statement - "Its best minds leave India invariably" Global remittances to India (1991) - 2.1 Billion $ Global remittances to India (current) - About 75 Billion $ The above shows a 35 fold increase, so as the NRI community grows so does the inward remittances which currently contribute about 3% of India's GDP "India is the world's leading receiver of https://www.wikiwand.com/en/Remittance 3. Your statement - "India's attitude towards Pakistan seems to be one of complacency" Answer - Per capita GDP of India in 2015 (June) - 1,928 $ Per capita GDP of Pak in 2015 (June) - 1,513 $ India's Per capita was less than that of Pak's until about 2008; Now it is about 27% more... Which of the above indicates to your concern on India's growth path as compared to Pakistan's ??

I fail to understand why this is a concern. Countries progress at their own pace according to their own conditions. What can you compare India and Pakistan in? Size, population, GDP, demographics, geographical location, economic goals? The only obvious reasons to compare seem to be that they share a long border and both populations can speak in Urdu/Hindi.  I don't see any good reason to compare. Please enlighten me if I am missing something.

Pakistan's future will be bright if Pakistan achieve following things: 1. Safe working of CPEC 2. Good relations with Russia 3. Peace and development in all northern parts 4. Implementing something like Caesaropapism 5. Solve Kashmir issue because we cannot fight for eternity If first 3 are achieved then Pakistan will develop fast. If first 4 are achieved then we can say that extremism can be controlled in Pakistan. 5th one, I am not sure if it is going to happen. If it did happen then there will also be peace in South Asia. Overall I see Pakistan getting economically powerful as Pakistan is soon to become SCO member and now all BRICS members except India have agreed and invited Pakistan to join BRICS.

This question begs specificity, but let us assume the question has only two possible answers: 1) fucked or 2) not fucked.  The answer would be the latter. Pakistan is too large to fail collectively.  It comprises of many cities, regions and enough ethnicities that to label it a failed state as a whole, even in its most dismal stages would be inaccurate.  It would be similar to calling India a failed state because in some regions of the country women get raped while defecating in a field of wheat, hung from the tree and then set on fire.  India is not a failed state. It is prosperous, productive and on a path to absolute stardom, despite its shortcomings.  It would be a falsehood to claim that any one politician, statesman or general is responsible for India's imminent rise to the top.  It was a collective effort of millions.  The children of yesterday have now grown into efficient and effective Hindustanis.  The medal for India's rise today should be awarded to the parents of the current generation.  They raised a populace that understands the benefits of an empowered, motivated and honest middle class.  They raised children that valued hard work not just as individuals, but as a society.  And they raised children that see similarities within each other before they highlight differences.  Pakistanis too are starting to realize that, they just have a tougher obstacle to overcome: inept kleptocratic governance. Both the military and democratically elected leaders of Pakistan have at numerous times stated that they wish to create a better Pakistan for tomorrow's children while they loot and plunder the nation with vigorous intensity.  Unfortunately for them, they are unaware that the public is no longer naive.  We are busy making better children for tomorrow's Pakistan.  It will be apparent very soon.  The future of Pakistan is: not fucked.

That's what they honestly believe in.They've got everything in place:1) A glorious past. 2) The true god and belief in the final messsenger. 3) The looks to kill. 4) Big Afridi-sized hearts. 5) Arabic shaheen genes... 6) Custom-written history books. 7) A slight paucity of water to wash up their asses after the morning rituals but then they have the nukes... so why do they need the water?Their past is the best, and the future is to rule the world after ghazwa-e-hind...It's only their present that is screwed up... where they are reduced to a tawayaf without any convictions - they take money from the Chinese and do their work... they take money from the US and do their work... they take money from the Saudi and do their work.. while their country is burning internally.

the only way pakistan can improve economically is by liberalizing the economy. but there  is a catch. what would be the aim of it? if making huge black money then yes! if not it is only going to be a big dumping ground for big corporations especially from china who will flood the domestic market and put every other company out of competition. besides, to be a successful nation u need to have a leadership, either military or civilian that aims at upliftment of masses. the pak civilian govt is not in control and the lion's share of budget goes to military! what is left fro people? indian was poor but its rising solely on the basis of it strong fundamentals in civilian institutions and education! pakistan cannot claim to have that till now. as far as alliances with cina is concerned, it is a strategic one in which china gains more than pakistan. and any one can approach Russia now as they need their defence exports in face of a shrinking economy! by the way , i can understand the wish of pakistanis to see india waning as economy. but with regards to the ' dismal ' picture, the data projects otherwise. we are still growing at more than 7% growth and even if one ignores gdp data, our macro credentials are better than any nation in the world today! FDI is up. our forex reserve is at historical high at 360 billion$. infra investment has gone up etc. there are obvious bottlenecks in any economy but that doesnt mean doomsday. wishful thinking will not take pakistan anywhere. pakistani society is plagued with chronic illiteracy , unemployment and radicalization. and unfortunately state bodies like GHQ promotes that fro short term gains. after all, inspite of jubilating the ' battle hardened pak military' u must ask, where did the animal called TTP come frm n the firstplace? surely u cannot blame indians or west for that!as far as our ' intolerance' is concerned, ask any indian outside the political camps today and they will unanimously say that all of these was propaganda by the INC led by gandhis! the incidents that happened has been happening since independence in isolated cases. no indian supports lynching by mob over beef! if some goons take law into their hands, how is my society intolerant? i would not like to defend BJP or Modi but the fact is that more riots and killings were sponsored by INC , without any trial( unlike gujarat where trals took place)! people know the true story behind facts and with india as the centre of 4th industrial revolution, our  democracy ,economy and strength as antion is more stronger than ever. pakistan may grow and take its own time, but if india falls today, that will be the end of global economy as we know it!

Pakistan always had and will have a better future than India, because Pakistani got disproportionately higher resources as Indian Muslims never migrated to Pakistan. Pakistan is also geo-strategically located country, which India never was. But the way you reach conclusion is nothing but height of absurdity. 1) Pakistan is still building relation with Russia and EU, India already have. 2) North Korea is also having strong backing of China. 3) Educated Middle class - well Pakistan is still way away from it. 4) India is having highest growth rate among major economies if that is low according to you then please tell what good growth rate is. 5) If communal tension increases in India then in the end Pakistan will get impacted. 6) India is facing tougher times since Independence because of incomplete partition. Most importantly Pakistan was not created to compete with India, your obsession is highly unjustified and negative bordering to self destruction.

I dont know but just joining sco dosent make a good thing for a country but Pakistan is like north korea or iraq where instability will remain despite growth Pakistan dosent seem to have a good future but who knows it could get better honestly Pakistan is a islamic state where every region except for punjab is getting looted                                                                            the problem is Pakistan is run by military and isi also even Afghanistan is,much better
