    • Pakistan's debt to GDP ratio is 55% of GDP(World Bank statistics). Whereas Canada's debt to GDP ratio is 64% of GDP, USA 99% of GDP, Greece 135%! of GDP. UK 400% of GDP. Still Pakistan is away from bankruptcy, notwithstanding propagenda of certain elements. These r confirmed WorldBank statistics.

  1. THAT IS THE REASON TO INCREASE THE INFLATION RATE IN PAKISTAN.
    THIS SHOW THE BAD GOVERNANCE IN THE LAST FOUR YEARS. MOST OF THE DEVELOPED COUNTRY CONTROL THE INFLATION RATE AND IN PAKISTAN VICE VIRSA

  2. Due to highest rate of courption in our country is the main reason of inflation and currency printing notes

  3. That's almost six times the current (nominal) GDP. Pakistani Rs. has to be over valued right now. Correction is not a matter of 'whether', it's a matter of 'when'…

    • You r wrong. Not six times. 1.167 trillion=1167 billion converted US$ it is approximately US$13 billion. While Pakistan's GDP(nominal) is US$ 202 billion. So, actually it one-fifteenth 1/15th of Pakistan's GDP(nominal). So, ur knowledge about Pakistan's economy is awefully wrong. Sorry to say that, but facts r facts.
