What’s Driving Pakistan’s Middle Class Brain Drain?

Pakistan is the fifth-largest country by population. It has the second-largest Muslim population and the fourth-largest Hindu population globally. Pakistan's GDP (PPP) is the second-largest in South Asia after India and ranks just behind Iran among neighboring Central Asian countries. Over 60% of its population is youth, and it has the fourth-largest English-speaking population worldwide. Pakistan’s society is relatively liberal compared to many Muslim-majority countries, and its people overwhelmingly favor democracy over dictatorship in all aspects of life. The country boasts some of the world's highest mountain peaks in the north, a vast agricultural belt and ecosystem around the Indus River and its tributaries, and a geographically ideal position for logistics, situated at the crossroads of Central Asia, India, China, and the Middle East. Its industrial landscape is diverse but outdated, though this is relatively easy to modernize. Pakistan holds substantial mineral, metal, and fossil fuel reserves. Despite limited resources and regulatory challenges, its service industry competes on a global scale. With improved policy development and sound macroeconomic strategies, Pakistan has tremendous potential to offer the world across many fields. May its leaders recognize the wealth of opportunities within the country and employ skilled resources to realize this potential, to make pragmatic decisions rather than blunders driven by emotion and ego.

The Tax point was not properly addressed in this video. Tax collection is low due to inability to levy and collect taxes from retail, agricultures, SMEs. Yet the only solution that is imposed to significantly increase the taxes on salaried class where tax is deducted at source, hence no effort required to collect tax in the first instance. This perpetual increase in the taxation coupled with inflation and law and order situation has created a sense of desperation among skilled workers (majority from middle class) to leave the country.
