You dont sound too serious..... you guys are in a lot of trouble.... i dont think you are really internalising this.... i am not gloating.... i am just shocked that instead of understanding your predicament and working out a solution, you are making bombastic statements. You are playing hard and fast with your country. Very irresponsible.

[@divyanshsh]

32:32 very good question raised

[@Caddy804]

Muzamil bhi, solution your guest gave is industrialization and no protection for foji foods etc. Industries need Power and Punjabi politics have deprived Pakistan from dams for power generation because all dams can only be built in KP, GB and AJK. So you see Punjabi Elites treating KP, GB and AJK like Bangali population prior to 1971. When your security agencies are hell bent on being Military Inc. of DHA and your politicians are hell bent to bankrupt Pakistan through IPP etc. Pakistani economy is already crashed and bankrupt. Economy needs cheap energy and Punjab is killing all the provinces that can generate cheap energy from Hydropower. All else follows when cheap energy is available. Investors come when they are offered free electricity to install machinery. This way Pakistan can earn ESG credits and increase its market share in global trade.

When the guest was talking about the short-sightedness of policy makers starting from the 90s (his words being 2 years of building reserves, then 2 years of spending it) ("Escaping the Debt Spiral" part of the Podcast), I think it relates a lot to the political instability of the 90s. The avg of 2 years of Govt duration before being dismissed/toppled from 1988 to 1999 perhaps affected the psychology of politicians and policymakers. Once a certain psychology is established, it has a lot of intertia and it will run long before the realization of the core issue and making necessary changes.

We are hostages of the executive, judiciary, and legislators/elite. We are not citizens. And if we think that they will work for your or my benefit then we have whats known as a stockholm syndrome where we become blind to what they are or have evolved into. We have created a government system of oligarchical gov entities who are not answerable to the people nor is their performance evaluated unless ofcourse the system in its current form is threatened. Plus other than some urban youth nobody wants to educate themselves and break the chains of perpetual poverty. A clear example is what both of tou were discussing which is borrowing from external institutions. Did anyone, any individual, political party, elite or any other part of society object to subsidies through out the past 30 years? And instead take out any protests or dharnas to force the gov to use that money to educate the work force and make them competitive on the world arena? Not one leader nor citizen/hostage come out in favor of that! What does that tell you about the people and their beloved institutions? And you ask whether this nation will somehow crawl out of the quagmire of ineptitude? Of course give them the freedom to smuggle, deal in narcotics and stolen goods all in the name of religion......thats all they want.

Pakistan lives today in the world where all countries believe in capitalism. Accordingly they judge, advise and expect Pakistan system behave according to western world' trust. However more than 80% people trust in ideals of Islam. Ideals include charity, dominance of Theology, piracy, etc. the paradoxes are horrendous. In comparison other Islamic nations have lesser interaction with western nations. Therefore their these same paradoxes have less impact. Conversely eastern nations India, Japan, china S Korea have instituted their systems, people's beliefs according to how world wants them to behave. No wonder they are thriving in international trade, currency system.

[@bhawnasmriti]

Commenting at 41:29, I might have been taught differently in school, but from what I’ve learned about inflation, the government primarily controls it through the central bank’s repo rate. Globally, there's a concept called residual income, often seen as a key driver of inflation. To curb inflation, governments typically raise interest rates (i.e., the repo rate), which reduces people's residual income after covering core expenses, leading to lower spending on non-essential items. This reduction in demand helps bring prices down, thus controlling inflation. That's why US mein abhi rate cut ki baat ho rahi hai.. because their inflation is now under control.

[@Mooneypilot101]

To put it in simple terms there are two types of borrowing: 1. Borrowing to improve your income. For individuals, you borrow to start a business or get education to enhance your earning capacity. For a country this kind of borrowing goes towards improving infrastructure to improve the climate for employment and businesses. 2. Borrowing to pay your bills. An individual who borrows money to pay his rent or electric bill continue to fall behind and never catch up. Ultimately this individual will have to sell of assets and eventually go bankrupt. For a country that resorts to borrowing just to run its government will be forced to sell off it national assets and eventually becomes a client state of the country that is lending them money. In Pakistan’s case it is now a fully indentured state of the United States by borrowing money from the IMF.

Right now I have watched 20 minutes of the video, so I do not know if this point has been discussed later in the video. Is it possible as a debt+interest management strategy to inflate the GDP somehow? I remember (hopefully correctly) an example from Nigeria when they fuddled their GDP numbers, stating that they have improved their data collection process for GDP. Their GDP increased by something like 40-50% overnight? Pakistan does have a grey economy that is estimated to be 40-100% of the documented economy size. Perhaps improved and expanded documentation of the undocumented sectors can help inflate the GDP quickly enough to better help manage the debt and interest. EDIT: Just a disclaimer. I am NOT proposing to manipulate the numbers. I am asking if improved data collection can result in improved GDP numbers, and can those improved numbers help in debt+interest management in the short-term?

[@mutahirkiani570]

Yes, better data collection can increase GDP and help with debt. However, risks include Inflated numbers can lead to poor decision making because they don't reflect the real economy. Grey economy is grey no matter how formal we try to make it unless we make people actually adapt to formal economy.

[@-Neutron-Star]

Better data collection can also reveal that Pakistan’s GDP is already super inflated! Data cuts either way!
