A glimmer of hope...
I came across this quote by Salman Shah, the Economic Advisor to Pakistans Prime Minister in an article on World Peace Herald, reproduced on Pakistani Defence Forum.
Pakistan's growth rate has averaged an annual 7 percent over the past four years, helping lift almost 20 million of Pakistan's 150 million people out of poverty. The proportion of Pakistanis officially calculated as living below the population has fallen from over a third to less than a quarter in the past five years, [Salman Shah, economic adviser to Pakistan's prime minister] Shah said.I must say... with all the things wrong with this country, such news really makes the glimmer of hope i have for it... just a little bit brighter!
