(9/n) What is needed is clear heads and looking beyond "easy solutions"... Here is hoping we do not forget that we have both resource and poverty issues that need bespoke solutions. #Pakthink #Pakistan
Strong message, but am I right in being concerned that the FM is being sent to KSA? Sounds like this was snuck in, but why? #IranvsUSA #PakThink #Pakistan
I have asked FM Qureshi to visit Iran, KSA & USA to meet with respective foreign ministers, Secretary of State; & COAS Gen Bajwa to contact relevant military leaders to convey a clear message: Pakistan is ready to play it's role for peace but it can never again be part of any war
Every student in high schools & universities shd be trained as an entrepreneur. It does not mean everyone will do business. Though millions need to do! Entrepreneurial skill is all about decision making, risks and finding solutions of problems. Everyone should learn it. #PakThink
Incredibly important paper on the leakage in the aid industry: Deposits in financial havens increase by about 5% of the amount of aid disbursed! Outrageous! And this is a lower bound estimate! I am stunned! #PakThink #PTIGovernment @ImranKhanPTI
In accordance with the World Bank, due to increasing demand from the media, and for the sake of full transparency, we just now published a draft of our paper on aid and hidden wealth (still in process for publication in WB’s policy research series) nielsjohannesen.net
Here's a question for you... If your intervention has the possibility to increasing corruption (and thereby producing harm in the world), are you not ethically bound to not carry out the intervention? Presumably not... Indeed, the government allows this. Why? #PakThink

Export promotion matters. #PakThink
Happy to note that well known brand, Hugo Boss, has placed its first order of sportswear to a Pakistani company. This achievement was due to the effort of PRGMEA for holding the 35th IAF Fashion Convention in Nov last year, in Lahore. Congratulations to Ijaz Khokhar and PRGMEA.
I am so confused by this.. is this some sort of public enterprise? Is the public sector now selling fruits and vegetables, or are public servants using their position to support private sector activities? Could someone please clarify? #Pakthink #Pakistan
Everyone please stop buying fruits and vegetables from market. Download our Durust Daam app and get them delivered to your houses with no delivery charges and that too on Govt rates. Rs 2500 shopping from market will cost only Rs 1300 through this app. Try it to believe it

Law-breaking & violence is normal in Pakistan to deal with social, religious, domestic, property and political issues. This is the main feature of a tribal society that does not have a modern state with a monopoly of violence and the capability to establish rule of law. #PakThink

How can Pakistan craft self-enforcing mechanisms? Bigger question is who will? #PakThink
Please share a few big questions for academics, intellectuals, students, and policy practitioners in Pakistan? Here is mine: How can Pakistan reduce its reliance on imported fuel in the next 2 decades? #PakThink

A focus on life skills is needed in school education. Tech/vocational education shd be mandatory in high school. More technical/vocational colleges giving free education. Universities shd b transformed into research, entrepreneurial and community engagement enterprises. #PakThink
#PakThink Applicable to us too perhaps

the Bankster families. Banking is an economic component, not the other way around!! Capital must be used to benefit the economy rather than the economy being used to benefit the banks. 3/3 #PakThink
What did we get by banning Wikipedia? Not that we produce high quality papers in academic journals anyway, that we banned the biggest free source of information on the web. #PakThink #wikipediaBlocked
#ChatGPT gives almost similar prescriptions as given by development economists. Is it supernacy of development economists or the end of development economists? #EconTwitter #PakThink

How can we have walkable cities with 45 degrees temperature? What’s the solution? #pakthink
Discuss macro numbers on twitter and never discuss or understand micro foundations of the economy. Dnt raise big questions on economic & social fundamentals. Never discuss oppertunities to grow the economy. Rule book to become a popular economist in Pakistan! #PakThink
We have been doing austerity, bans and controls. What we have not been doing? Enhancing oppertinities for people to be more productive and competitive. We all want to read why nations fail but we dnt read books that tell us why nations thrive. #PakThink
My decision to ban import of luxury items will save the country precious foreign exchange. We will practice austerity & financially stronger people must lead in this effort so that the less privileged among us do not have to bear this burden inflicted on them by the PTI govt.

Politics in Pakistan is about the money in your bank. Educated youth has brilliant ideas, but is broke. How can this lot first break the wheel and reconstruct it, to enter politics in the first place? #PakThink
Educated youth interested in politics should join the game as politicians instead of bashing and supporting politicians on twitter.
Who wants to live in a class based, regressive, patriarchal, economically failed state/society? #PakThink
A friend of mine recently forwarded a job advrt as it perfectly matches my profile and said make sure you have a political reference. That friend works in same organisation at senior level. #pakthink
Why educated and talented women want to leave Pakistan? I can see this trend is increasing rapidly. The number may be minimal now but has an increasing trend. Lets not get into size of this segment but focus on the question I posed even if the number is quite small. #PakThink
Everyone talks about current account deficit and fiscal deficit. No one talks about learning deficit in Pakistan. #PakThink

What matters for economic growth? What is the history of thought process in this field? Watch my lecture at @atomcamp. Specially focused on contributions of @paulmromer. Mentioned @nadeemhaque for introducing the economics of ideas in Pakistan. #PakThink youtube.com/watch?v=NuZlNx…
#MidNightReading How China reformed its bureaucracy for shifting the attention towards economic development? I have bn saying Pakistan cannot grow unless we assign investment, entrepreneurial activity, and job creation targets to city officials/authorities. #PakCities #PakThink
Saw these boards in Islamabad. Though modern economic wisdom inform us it is better to give cash to people! What do you think? #EconTwitter #PakThink
How do cities look beautiful? Not with choona and gamla!!! Cities look beautiful when they offer public transport, protect rights of cyclists and pedestrian, develop mixed use city centers and provide vibrant public spaces. #PakCities #ReImagineIslamabad #PakThink

1/2. Who says the government does not facilitate the industry? Look what a building as industrial facilitation center. And there is an industrial facilitation company as well. This is how we have established NPO, SMEDA, BOI, TUSDEC... All are employment agencies. #PakThink
Dnt know who said it. But I recall it when I see the responce by people to my proposals regarding focus on domestic investment through entrepreneurship & revisting land-use policies in cities in order to come out of foreign debt trap and revenue constraints. #PakCities #PakThink
During his talk at #LRP2021 by @LRTerrace, @shahjahan_ch says, "if you want to destroy an economy increase rate of VAT/GST." What do you think? #PakThink
Every #Pakistani should read this book by @bill_easterly. Title: The Tyranny of Experts, Economists, Dictators and the Forgotten Rights of the Poor. #PakThink
Some dnt like posting book titles. However, I understand we do need to remind each other to read, read and read. So here is what I'm enjoying these days. Philosophy explained in a simple way. #PakThink
Numerous independent small-scale innovations meet and turn themselves into a leapfrog advancement. So never discourage small scale innovations and ideas. Let the ideas from different locations, sectors and disciplines collide! امید سحر #PakThink #PakReskill
Thanks to @umergilani_lums for joining #LRP2021 by @LRTerrace as mentor and guest speaker. A wonderful session on constitutional law. His analysis of relationship among different tiers of governments in Pakistan is really illuminating. Fellows can further dscs it. #PakThink
This is how China developed. Check the KPIs of the lowest tier of bureaucracy. What are KPIs of city officials in #PakCities? Need to steer our city administrations to play more proactive role in economic development. #PakThink
We have requested policy professionals, academics, entrepreneurs & civil servants to join us as mentors to train & groom the next generation of policy makers & analysts through this policy fellowship by @LRTerrace. #LRP2021 #PakThink Register by 15 Dec: bit.ly/LRP2021.
