Introduction:
“Economy is a type of system which is considered by institution which play significant role in
the production of goods and services in a country. It’s emphasize the distribution of resources
among its members in society and also define the value of goods and services and even explore
what type of thing should be traded for those services and goods”[ CITATION Joh18 \l 1033 ].
As we go back and study the past heritage of the green land (Pakistan). It has become an
independent state on 14th Aug, 1947, the country was gripped 31 million people with a little per
capita income of 100$. There were no as such industries in Pakistan but only agriculture
provided 50% of output in that time. While, it was so difficult to provide feed to 31 million
people and depending only an import with the United State of America (USA). Pakistan is
having a very little economic structure in that time and facing many such economic problems in
the past and even still facing the issues because of many factors and obstacles to growth and
economic development. According to the study, in the present time Pakistan is capturing more
than 170 million people with per capita income in the year of 2008 was 1001$ which was more
than to the past. Now, Pakistan is exporting 3 million ton rice to many countries of the world and
it has got 3rd position in exporting of rice in the global ranking. The trend has changed the
agriculture percentage down to 50% to 20% in the country because of many factors in decreasing
agricultural percentage. Now, Pakistan has got 24th position in the world ranking in terms of
purchasing power parity and 39th in terms of Gross Domestic Product (GDP). The economy of
Pakistan is suffering from the past few decades and still suffering because of internal political
clashes, increasing a high number of population, lack of as such foreign investment, increase in
import, low saving, lack of policy implementation, and lack of as such tax collection policy are
the main factors and challenges to the economy of Pakistan[ CITATION Yas18 \l 1033 ]. Let’s
more you get”. When the government involves to make sure the more investments on their
institutions in this way, they will get a stable environment in case of achieving success in their
institutions. Pakistan is facing many internal and external difficulties in the economy of the state
which is affecting the development and stability of the state. There is a very shocked condition in
which we learn to the worst of circumstances but still increasing 5.2 percent per year during the
past some decades. The situation is not good since the independence but, getting growth in the
economy of Pakistan. From the last 65 years, Pakistan has faced many challenges related to
economic institution but not standing now for somehow. While, it has done well on the economic
forward-facing. The economy of Pakistan is growing in a normal way and increasing 5.2% per
Pakistan counts in those globally rich countries which is having a high young labor force which
may help in building the economy of state and even can also contribute in the global economy
but unfortunately, they are having less knowledge and unskilled labor force in the country. The
responsibility of the government or stakeholders should provide knowledge and technical skills
to them, in this situation they can more contribute in the growth of the economy of Pakistan. The
government should also be able to provide economic opportunities to their young people and if
the government fails in providing such opportunities it will create social disturbances or social
Terrorism is not only the issue of Pakistan. It is a global issue in the world. We still remember a
big incident in the America on the world trade center where many people had been killed and
injured. After the terrorists attack on world trade center (9/11), this incident greatly affected the
country Pakistan by terrorist Group Al-Qaida. It was the time of General Pervez Musharraf,
while his weak governance and bad policies of war on terror greatly affected the country in a
negative way. Both Afghanistan and Pakistan are geographically linked with each other, if there
is war in Afghanistan, it will affect Pakistan seriously. It was the time, when America were
facing threats by many terrorist groups in Afghanistan especially, Al-Qaida. In this way she
became a big supporter in war on terror. The war can really affect the budget of the state because
the high budget is spending on war and other security reasons can decrease the economy of the
state. The war environment makes destabilize the world’s economy and produce many problems
such as shortage of fuel, lack of funds, and also rising health problems and so on[ CITATION Abu14
\l 1033 ].
Educational institution play vital role in the economic growth of the state. Unfortunately,
Pakistan has not having as such good educational system. The government is spending only 2-3
percent on education that is not enough for running and improvement of education institution.
Education is necessary for every single individual who live in society or country and even the
constitution supports the statement but laws are not practically implemented in Pakistan.
Somehow, the government gives the opportunity to the students to get primary education but
there is no as such opportunities when they reach to the university level and even no
opportunities for those students who completed their degrees. In this way how these students can
contribute in the economy of the state if there is no as such opportunities to them. Poor academic
surplus or unnecessary things and activities which can led the state to corrupt economic
condition. The government should not waste the money which cannot fulfill the need of the
people in society. Government should understand the need of the masses in society by proper
planning. They have to know that where we have to spend the money according to the need of
Energy crises:
Energy crises is another serious problem which affects the economy of the state. Pakistan is
facing this issue from the past few decades like, load shedding of electricity, petroleum, natural
gas, and CNG which created many problems. The government has failed in providing electricity
to industries and factories which results in increasing unemployment and producing lack of
goods. As a nation we have to suggest that the government should take this serious issue and to
Poor Export:
Export can play very significant role in economic growth. Pakistan is an agricultural state where
75% of the total economy of the state is based on agriculture production. Unfortunately, the
natural environment of the country comes under the threats of natural disasters like, heavy flood,
and earthquake. These incidents sometime decrease production level and can also destroy the
large amount of cultivation lands. The government should increase export level and should
provide subsidies to the farmers that will create positive environment in the contribution of
economic development. People should also change the trend of imported materials or products
like, in Pakistan most of the people use imported materials especially our elite and middle class
families so they have to change this trend and use our own products that will contribute in
economic change. The government should also promote the trend of industrialization in the
country. According to the study, for the development of economy, Pakistan should seriously
work on political stability and its law and order situation that will contribute in an economic
Corruption:
Corruption counts in a major issue of Pakistan. The ratio of corruption is very high in Pakistani
every institution in Pakistan whether a political, economic, and other institutions. Corrupt people
has got higher ranks in a country. They are not interested to do the jobs honestly that is the
condition which build or increase problem in a country. Corrupt people want to achieve their
own interest rather than to do something for the betterment of society. They also involved in a
bad activities which is very harmful for the masses and also promote less energetic persons in
society. According to the 2018 corruption perceptions index Pakistan ranks 117 in least corrupt
nation out of 175 countries but previously it was on 139 out of 174 countries [ CITATION Haf18 \l
1033 ].
Inflation:
Inflation is another serious challenge in our society. Now a days, inflation rate has reached on
peek which is creating a number of issues in society of Pakistan. Inflation is a persistent change
in the prices of products or it simply defines, a rise in prices. When the value of a nation’s
currency is going down creates many problems for the nation or in other words, the devaluation
another factor which is falling economic growth. Same the case of Pakistani society where the
Pakistan has full of natural resources in the form of coal, copper, gold, and silver but
regarding to improper utilizing the natural resources. Coal is available in many regions of
Pakistan but not exploring them. Baluchistan is the province of Pakistan where these resources
are in reserve but there is conflict between the Army and local masses of the area which is not
paying attention to positive and sustainable change in Baluchistan. The establishment institution
has created a war environment or form of critical situation in Baluchistan where the government
cannot utilize these natural resources for the betterment of the province and even for the state. So
suggesting that the federal government should take the issue of Baluchistan seriously and resolve
it shortly. These natural resources can push the economy of the state, while we have to use
properly in exploring them. The political leaders are interested to achieve their own interest
rather to focus on these natural resources which is available in our country. The good leadership
qualities are missing in exploring these natural resources. The government of Pakistan has failed
in exploring these natural resources so that’s the reason, it is creating a major issue in the
country.
Conclusion:
As mentioned, some of the main factors behind the falling of Pakistan’s economy from the past
few decades and still facing the same situations. I personally guess, that all these obstacles are
because of the bad policies in Pakistani society. The responsibility of the government is to
address public issues for growth and development through policies but the situation is different
in Pakistan, the elected government always achieve their own interest rather to address social or
public issues. They also have to focus on the strong bureaucratic organization in Pakistan and do
not interfere for their own interests. Because bureaucracy can play vital role in policy making
process so that it should become an autonomous institution in Pakistan that will be more
beneficial for the economic growth in our country. The government should make a strong
economic team for the economic change in Pakistan and the politician should also support them
in this mission. In this situation, economic experts will work to improve tax system in Pakistan
and the masses should also cooperate with government and pay the tax according to the law.
Pakistan should concentrate on political stability, law and order that will provide a type of
support in improving the economy. As suggesting that every institution should do their own
work, they should not interfere in other institutions like, the military institution is interpreting in
bureaucracy or even in the foreign policy which results in falling the economy of the state. The
responsibility of the establishment is to protect the people not to interfere in every institution in
Pakistan. Bureaucracy should also focus on the process of formulation and implementation of the
policy that will be beneficial for the people and will improve living standard of the masses in
Pakistani society. The government should promote the trend of industrialization in our country
which will provide help in economic opportunities and will also contribute in economic growth.
Finally, suggesting that we have to make our institutions strong and autonomous in Pakistan.
