WHAT HAVE WE LEARNT FROM THE DECADE OF 1990’s?

Countries who learn from their own experiences have a better chance of avoiding the same mistakes and move forward. I will, therefore this evening, take a comparative long-term perspective and juxtapose Pakistan in relation to other developing countries and its own experience of the 1990’s. My hands-on involvement in restructuring of the economy during the last four years, in-depth analysis of the Pakistani economy as a detached observer and work experience with the World Bank for over 20 years makes it possible to share this unique perspective with you.
