Is The Lack of Resources a Real Cause of All Problems in Pakistan?
Assalam.o.Alaikum!Umeed ki jati hain ky sab membeers khairiat sy hogy.. Aj mery mind me aik bat ai to socha ky eder bhi discuss kia jaey esko. Hum ny aksar news me bhi suna hoga ky Pakistan ky pass resources nahi hain especially economically hum aids par dependent hai.. Lykin sawal ye yahan uthta hai ky kia sach me hamaray mulk me rsources ki kami hain ya phir enki utilization sy related jo policies hai wo efficient nahi hai?
Jesa ky hum sab janty hai ky Balochistan aik rich province hai rare earth matter me lykin eder koi aisa efficient governance system nazar nahi ata jis sy en resources ki utilization aik achay way me ho saky.
Es argument ko
Tanseem Ahmed ny apni book "Dynamic of Social Change" bohat e achy sy explain kia hai.
1-Pakistan is not a resource poor c ountry:enho ny ye argument likhty howey kaha hai ky Pakistan ik resource rich land hai or esky sath sath es me human resource ki bhi kami nahi hai. Lykin masla yahan ki policy making me hai jo hmary mulk ko vulnerable bna rahi hain.
2-Natural resources alone don't gurantee the development:Es argument ko enho ny
Nigeria jesy mulk ki misaal dety howa kaha hy ky aisey mulk jo ky natural resources me rich hai wo still development crisis face kr rahy hain
3-Development is not permanent:es argument me enho ny
Brazil, venezuela, and argentina jesy mumalik ki misaal dety howey kaha hy ky devlepment aik permanent process nahi hai bulky ye aik continuous process hai jis me consistent policies eham qardar ada krti hain.
Mery khiyal sy enky arguments valid hain or aik mulk ko taraqi ki raah par gamzan hony ky lye consistency ky sath chlna prta hai. Yaha mery zehan me
China ki example ai hai jo ky 1949 me azad ho kar aj superpowers me apna muqam rakhta hai. China ny consistency ky sath aik choty level sy apni kamyabi ky safar ka aghaz kia tha jesy ky cheap materials jesa ky toys or other plastic equipments wagera.
Apka kia khiyal hai hmary mulk ko sb sy pehly apny khaaam material ko utilize kr ky ksi aik industry ko global level grow kry jesy ky
Bangladesh ki textile industry hai. ya phir ap bhi resources ki kam ko e major cause smjhty hai?

https://share.google/StR1IS1FU0iBxCUFhWalakumsalam buhat hee zabrdst topic highlight kee hay aap nay. Pakistan resource poor nahi hay. Balochistan may copper or gold Sindh may coal or kpk may minerals ki kami nhi hay. Punjab may agriculture ko dekh lay. Nigeria or Venezuela ki misal perfect hay. Oil hay lekin phir bhi crises kyunke paisa loot Liya jata hay. Ye baat yad rakhain k development aik continues process hay is may darar nahi aani chahiye.
Hal ye hay k raw material ki exports band kardi jaye. Leather hum raw baich detay hain or shoes bahr say import krtay hain. Kapas baich detay hain phir kapra china say mhnga khareedtay hain.
Hamara sab say bara masla ye hay k policy consistent nahi hay. Har govt naee policy lay kar aati hay or isliye investors trust nahi krtay. Jaisay aap nay Balochistan ki misal de k resources hay lekin locals ko koi faida nahi.
Tho sab baton ka Nateeja ye hay k hum resource poor nahi balke policy poor hain.
