The Pakistani economy cannot take off without fundamental socio-political changes
Shaukat Aziz, Pakistan’s Prime Minister-in-waiting wants to make Pakistan an Asian Tiger. The Acorn thinks it will remain a basket case unless there are profound changes for which institutional democracy is an important pre-requisite.
Being proved wrong will be a happy outcome.
I thought India was Asia’s tiger. We sure this isn’t some chest-thumping? 🙂
btw, we will have two economists leading South Asia. who wants to ponder the implications of that?
Sepoy,
Musharraf and Sonia economists ? 🙂
Just kidding
