Good sir

[@rajanpatel57]

Yes, this is the first step in the right direction # “acknowledge that there is an issue “ only then one can do some course correction. Fascinated to hear such a bold n honest narratives, and remember quality education is the passport to success. Love from. India 🇮🇳 !

[@tejindersharma8603]

Almost negligible comments here suggest that the people at large and surprisingly teaching community has no interest in such debates thus contribution in terms of comments.

[@vasukinagabhushan]

Most developed nations teach their children in their mother tongue languages as the medium of instruction, which is lacking in Pakistan and India. Scientifically, it is best to provide primary and secondary education in their local languages.

[@Dr.ArbazRahmann]

Finally a podcast with substance

[@ramjeevanrathore4959]

I am from India and I agree Pakistan has potential, but in order to uplift Pak economy their leaders have to take bold decision such as create a terror free ecosystem which allow foreign companies to invest in Pak, attract tourists and conducting international sports events specially cricket and I believe these will help employment generation and eventually economy will grow. All the best.

[@bipins7295]

This is a country where textbooks start with kuraan ayats and this guy who said "there was backlash", "administration stopped" and these are the points to ponder upon. When you have taken care of these government backlash, you won't have to worry about anything else.

Unfortunately interference from active cell phones keeps on drowning out the speakers > tell participants to switch off cell phones!!

[@professoraftab7488]

How efficiently we can beg is the focal point we are to address.we have a comprehensive network to think about creating new projects for our survival Kashmir, Afghanistan,terrorism and when nothing we start chanting the Amrican interests are in danger.Americans must come forward to support us .

[@alokagarwal3714]

Prof hoodbhoy may note that India's software exports in 22-23 were 156 billion dollars

[@ijazmian]

We need to control population also along with improving education increase productivity and reduce imports

[@gautamsharma8459]

The basic problem with Pakistan is with such a strong and rigid clergy who have ganged up with politicians and military who wants to keep people uneducated so none can question their decisions for a good education you need to build a complete ecosystem where critical thinking is developed which normally takes 4-5 decades to build

[@AK-vh3hv]

That's bloody eye opening brutal truth if they understand...

[@Bharatiya1998]

21-22 IT export was 156.7 export.
