    Starting with a glance on the historical relationship, the amount of aid provided by the US to Pakistan has been tremendous. The aid provided in 2001 was nearly $ 5 million. This aid boosted on to 1.1 billion in 2002. (US News and World Report, 6/2/2003). In 2003, the US rewarded Pakistan for their performance in the war against terror. Ahmad Rashid talks about the colossal amount of aid granted by the US in his book, ‘Descent into Chaos: The United States and the Failure of Nation Building in Pakistan, Afghanistan, and Central Asia’, stating, “Bush announces the US will now cancel $1 billion of Pakistan’s US debt, reschedule the remaining $1.8 billion, and give $100 million for education reform.”(Rashid, 2008, PP.148-149) Furthermore, in 2008, the U.S. Ambassador to Pakistan Anne W. Patterson showed an inclination towards assisting Pakistan’s democratic government in the areas of development, stability, and security. Non-military assistance to Pakistan has increased considerably to Pakistan under the Obama Administration, which is mainly attributable to the Kerry-Lugar-Berman bill which grants $7.5 billion to Pakistan in five years beginning 2009.Post 9 /11, Pakistan has…

    Pakistan and the United States of America are strong trade and investment partners and whatever market access is available to Pakistani exporters is reflective of the importance that USA holds for Pakistani goods, especially textiles. However, for various economic, political, military, and social reasons, there has seldom been a solid support for allowing liberal market access to Pakistan. So much so, the much-touted initiative of Reconstruction Opportunity Zones succumbed to political exigencies as well as two major events in Pakistan. One was the imposition of Emergency by President Pervez Musharraf and the second was the tragic assassination of Benazir Bhutto. These two events put paid to the ROZ initiative.…

    In order to solve the economic and political difficulties, Pakistan has received significant loan or grant assistance from international financial institutions. Those international financial institutions are IMF, the World Bank and the Asian Development Bank. Recently, Pakistan remains dependent on IMF and other international assistance for budgetary support and to keep the country more or less solvent. Cotton textile production and apparel manufacturing are the major industries in Pakistan. Pakistan's search for additional foreign direct investment has been hampered by concerns about the security situation, domestic and regional political uncertainties, and questions about judicial transparency. Pakistan also noticed as high trade deficit. This is because of weak world demand for its exports and domestic political uncertainty. In 2009, the country’s major import fell to $28.4 billion. The ongoing energy crisis and security concerns, together with a decline in global demand, have hampered Pakistan’s textile-reliant export base. For me, with the uncertainty of the Pakistan’s economic and political conditions it is a bad move to exporting our products to Pakistan. It will cost us a lot in every condition.…

    Many factors influence the economic growth process. Especially, the inflow of foreign direct investment (FDI) has been found to play a crucial role in the economic growth of receiving countries. This paper examines determinants of economic growth in developing countries from 1991 to 2010. Using panel cointegration approach, with panel data across thirty countries in Africa, Asia and Latin America, this paper finds that real FDI does not have statistically significant influence on real GDP across developing countries from 1991 to 2010. Rather, it appears to be the economic factors internal to a country that have the most influence on real GDP over time: monetary and fiscal policy, household consumption, capital stock, number of person engaged in the work force, and export trade.…

    First of all, let’s emphasize the question of economic growth and its desirability nowadays in the society. I think in order to understand the concept of economic growth and where its roots take place we need to know how economic freedom being measured and what are the factors that impact economic growth along with economic freedom.
