Pakistan Political Conditions
Exercise 1.
The president or the Chief of State chosen for a 5-year term by an electoral college. Head of Government or known as prime minister selected by National Assembly for a 4-year term. Pakistan is one of the major countries in the international community significantly. This happen after the accident of September 11, 2001. For the economic conditions in Pakistan, the World Bank considers Pakistan is a low-income country. Persistent poverty and unequal income distribution has caused by the low levels of spending in the social services and high population growth. Other than that, year-over-year consumer price inflation averaged 13.6% in 2009.
In order to solve the economic and political difficulties, Pakistan has received significant loan or grant assistance from international financial institutions. Those international financial institutions are IMF, the World Bank and the Asian Development Bank. Recently, Pakistan remains dependent on IMF and other international assistance for budgetary support and to keep the country more or less solvent. Cotton textile production and apparel manufacturing are the major industries in Pakistan. Pakistan's search for additional foreign direct investment has been hampered by concerns about the security situation, domestic and regional political uncertainties, and questions about judicial transparency. Pakistan also noticed as high trade deficit. This is because of weak world demand for its exports and domestic political uncertainty. In 2009, the country’s major import fell to $28.4 billion. The ongoing energy crisis and security concerns, together with a decline in global demand, have hampered Pakistan’s textile-reliant export base. For me, with the uncertainty of the Pakistan’s economic and political conditions it is a bad move to exporting our products to Pakistan. It will cost us a lot in every condition.
Exercise 2.

    Economists have a very poor track record of forecasting the future as the dynamic interactions between complex variables, an imperfect understanding of the non-economic factors and the occurrence of unanticipated exogenous shocks turn their judgements into hit and miss episodes. Despite these weaknesses economic forecasting flourishes as a discipline and the economists show indomitable courage to sketch out their scenarios of an uncertain and unknown future. This article therefore examines the past developments, current trends of Pakistani economy and the future global and regional outlook and builds the most likely scenario for the medium term economic prospects of the country (next 10 years or so) and then reviews the downside risks and upside gains around this scenario.…

    ANS : Pakistan was one of the 23 founders of GATT in 1947. It actively participated in all the subsequent GATT negotiations and was involved in the Uruguay Round that resulted in the creation of the WTO. Pakistan was thus also one of the founding members of WTO that was established in 1995. There is a considerable impact of WTO on all sectors of Pakistan's economy, particularly, its industry, textile, agriculture and services. The nature of impact is predictable for some sectors, whereas, it is difficult for others in view of global developments in trade and degree of complexity involved.Pakistan agreed to join WTO in 1994, one of the benefits of which is the integration of the textile sector into General Agreement on Tariff and Trade (GATT). Looking at 2005, people mostly believe that the major impact of WTO on Pakistan would again be on the textile sector. However, WTO comprises several protocols and agreements focusing on various sectors and has different implications for different sectors and thus the impact might not just be limited to the textile sector. For example, a few subjects or agreements signed by the government mentioned below show which sectors will be the most affected:1) Improved access to foreign markets (reduction/binding of tariffs, abolition of quotas)…

    It is now a cliché that the acceleration in the global movement of capital and goods, termed conventionally ‘globalization’, carries both immense opportunities, but also serious potential threats. Ultimately it will be the international competitiveness of firms in particular economies that will determine how far opportunities are converted into lasting national benefits and how far potential threats from heightened international competition result in serious cost. There is general agreement that currently with important domestic policy changes and with the forthcoming end of the international textile and clothing quota regime the economy of Pakistan is at an important crossroads. The competitiveness of the industrial sector in the new more liberal international and domestic environment will have a critical bearing on economic prospects for the foreseeable future.…

    Khalid was born around c. 592 in Mecca to Walid ibn al-Mughira, the chief of the Banu Makhzum, a clan of the Arab tribe of Quraysh. He was Umar's cousin. His father was known in Mecca by the title of Al-Waheed- the One.[4] The three leading clans of Quraysh at that time were, Banu Hashim, Banu Abd-al-dar, and Banu Makhzum. The Banu Makhzum was responsible for the matters of war. Soon after his birth, and in accordance with the traditions of the Quraysh, Khalid was sent to a Bedouin tribe in the desert, where a foster mother would nurse him and bring him up in the clear, dry and unpolluted air of the desert. At the age of five or six, he returned to his parents in Mecca. Khalid during his childhood also had a mild attack of smallpox which he survived, but it left some pockmarks on his left cheek.[5]…

    Scarred from birth, Pakistan's quest for survival has been as compelling as it has been uncertain. Pakistan cycled through a number of phases of development through its beginning Political, Social and Economic crises. The politicians were corrupt, interested in maintaining their political power and securing the interests of the elite, so to have them as the representative authority did not provide much hope of a democratic state that provided socio-economic justice and fair administration to all Pakistani citizens. Ranging controversies over the issue of the national language, the role of Islam, provincial representation, and the distribution of power between the center and the provinces delayed constitution making and postponed general elections, thus putting Pakistan into a certain situation of uncertainty right from the start.…

    Relations between Pakistan and Afghanistan are hostage to the legacy of historical discord on the, “Durand Line ” drawn in 1896 by the then British Government and was inherited by Pakistan as a border between the two countries. This had not been accepted as permanent border by many factions in Afghanistan and the issue has been inherited by Pakistan. The relations between the countries had been marred by distrust over the geographical divide. Pakistan had been apprehending that many successive Afghan Governments had been fueling the sentiment of forming a greater Pakhtunkhwa state amalgamating the territory on Pakistan side. On the other hand Afghan governments had been fearing that Pakistan was trying to destabilize successive Afghan governments to install favourable governments. During Russian invasion from December 1979 to February 1989, Pakistan provided all the support that was needed by Afghanistan and allies to thwart Russian invasion and also hosted over 3 million refugees. This resulted in good will with the Taliban Government which followed the end of Russian invasion but the situation changed after 9/11. This situation, however, did not last long. The present situation is that once again the relations between Pakistan and Afghanistan are…
