Pakistan External Debt

FY15 was ideal which retarded Nawaz/Dar combo along with many others ruined it. By signing expensive IPPs CPEC contracts when there was no need for them. By selling borrowed $$ in market to keep rupee artificially stable.

The so called corrupt Zardari/PPP left Pakistan in fiscally strong position in FY14. Nawaz bastard left it near bankruptcy.


Layoff ? Demotion ? Or just late check ?

Hydra bro/Raja Babu,

As long as the growth in debt doesn't exceed growth in nominal GDP (that is without adjusting for inflation) it is fine.

@FarhanSiddiqui

Our debt is in US dollars and it should be reported in that currency.

Nope. Only a part of your public debt is forex denominated.

But but but (can't post with less than 3 words, just realized this explanation made my post much more than 3 words)

Analysts noted that this debt growth is outpacing the nominal GDP growth of 8%, pushing the debt-to-GDP ratio to 73.2%.

? Nothing new. My position is clear, Nawaz and Imrandu both ruined Pakistan economy. Only now under establishment we are seeing some sense but its not enough. Pace of reforms are slow.

1. SOE's losses still pilling up.

2. Renegotiate NFC award as provinces are basically debt free while all of Pakistan debt is paid by federal government.

FY24-25 debt to GDP increased 3% to 73% which is unacceptable. Should be going down especially under IMF. Only reason is no reforms done.

Just these two ?

Are you sure you are not missing out some 30+ years rule of 4 generals? One islamized (in a negative way) out society and brought kalashinkov culture. The other brought political circus. Third one thrown us under the train by dragging us in a long long war that had nothing to do with us. Sorry forgot about the 4th one, who helped split our country in two in 71.

But yes Imrandu and Nawazandu it is. No one else.

Provinces will never accept a reduction in revenue share. A better way would be to slash, if not eliminate, all public welfare and states subjects spends (health, education etc) from Federal budget to State budget. The problem is that your Federal ministers and bureaucrats would lose their opportunity to make money.

Nappy Bro,

I did notice that. What I meant was about the future, that if future debt growth is in line with GDP it is fine.

Regards

I studied interpolation and extrapolation concepts in my previous degree. Learned them in bachelor's as well but soon forgot.

But what I can say, through extrapolation, using the previous 78 years and today's situation as data points - the future is bleak.

No? See Pakistan being near bankrupt have little to do with our FP adventures. You just need to spend what you earn or get $$.

In fact last 10 years were worst ever because we borrowed more then ever, especially Nawaz Sharif between 2013-2017.

Tell me of one instance in previous 50 years , when

1. Pakistan was not near bankrupt.
2. Pakistan was not on a "nazuk morr".
3. Opposition parties were not on RAW payroll. (You got the point. Every government is brought by establishment. Calling opposition raw agents helps).

I think the plan is to not reduce share of provinces but to include ex-FATA, Islamabad, Azad Kashmir and Gilgit under current award. Along with federal government cutting off Benazir Income, asking provinces to share cost of big infrastructure projects in their provinces etc

Hydra bro,

Between 1988 to 1999, your Fauj didn't allow a single civilian govt to complete its tenure. You think in such circumstances any govt can think of, let alone execute a long-term plan? Is this a scenario which would encourage any investor to put in money in PAK.

See charts above, FY2014 Pakistan was in good position fiscally speaking despite worst ever era of terrorism between 2008-2013. The coming government needed to work on that and build up foreign reserves and not waste them on imports and useless projects.

So, again, nazuk morr.
