Impact of economic liberalization on economic growth in the case of Pakistan / Qazi Muhammad Adnan Hye
No full textSince late 1980s, Pakistan‟s policy makers have been following the economic liberalization policies, particularly financial and trade liberalization for attaining sustainable economic growth. Gauging the impact of such policies on Pakistan economic performance is indispensable to pave the way of sustainable economic growth. This study contributes to the existing literature in the case of Pakistan by estimating the impact of financial and trade liberalization on economic growth through the channels of private saving and investment. Further, this study also analyzes the determinants of capital account liberalization. Study applied autoregressive distributed lag approach (ARDL) on time series data from 1971 to 2013 for analyzing the objectives. The ARDL results indicate that the long run relationship exists in all models. First, the results of the economic growth model show that labor force (skill), capital stock, and financial liberalization index are positively related with the economic growth. The financial openness index and trade openness are negatively related to growth. Second, the long term results of the impact of financial and trade liberalization indicators on private saving show that per capita real private income, real deposit rate, public saving and financial liberalization index are positively linked with private saving. The capital account liberalization, financial openness index, and trade openness are negatively related to private saving in the long run. Third, the long term results of the impact of financial/trade liberalization indicators on private investment exhibit that per capita real private income, public investment, financial liberalization index are positively related to private investment in the long run. The real interest rate and trade openness are negatively linked to private investment in the long run. Last, the results of the impact of trade liberalization/openness on the capital account liberalization/openness highlight that trade openness (de facto) is positively related with capital account liberalization. Further, the results also indicate trade liberalization and

trade openness are positively associated with the financial openness. Putting together, the overall results show that financial liberalization index is positively related to economic growth, private saving and investment. Against this backdrop, study suggests policy makers to promote financial liberalization in banking and stock sector as such liberalization policies are positively linked to economic growth. In the context of negative juxtaposition of capital account liberalization/openness to economic growth, there is need to relook at the capital account liberalization policies. The study also highlights a need to revise import liberalization policy of discouraging the imports of luxury consumer goods and subsidizing the machinery for industry. The control variable of skill labor force is positively linked to economic growth, thus this study suggests that skill labor is playing an important role in the growth process. Presently Pakistan is spending 2.1 % of GDP on education (GOP 2011), which is lower than other regional countries like India, Bangladesh and Nepal. An increase in education expenditures and their effective allocation is vital in order to sustain EG by improving the quality of human capital

It charts Ali's evolution from Black Nationalism to a universalism, but does not discount the Nation of Islam and Black Nationalism's important influence on his intellectual development. Filipino American author Emil Guillermo speaks about how "The Thrilla' In Manila" brought the Philippines into the 20th century.

مطالعہ ادیان میں قاضی محمد سلیمان سلمان منصورپوری ؒ کا منہج و اسلوب اور عصری رہنمائی: QAZI MUHAMMAD SULAIMAN SALMAN MANSOORPURI'S METHODOLOGY AND CONTEMPORARY GUIDANCE IN STUDYING RELIGIONS
No full textThe arguments made in this thesis prove that Qazi Muhammad Sulaiman had great expertise in Semitic and non-Semitic religions. This is the reason why he has introduced Christianity, Judaism, Parsi, Hindu, Buddhism, Sikh, Jain and Chinese religions and civilizations in a very reliable manner in his works and writings. There is a need in modern times to adopt this Methodology of Qazi Sahib and adopt a moderate attitude while working on the study of religions. Because in current era, the need and importance of this attitude becomes less and less. In Islam, there are very balanced teachings about talking with other religions and socializing with other civilizations. Now these teachings need to be expanded so that Islam's preaching right can be fulfilled. The message of Qazi Sulaiman Mansoor Puri's work on the study of religions is that we should promote understanding and dialogue and the tradition of studying religions. But in the meantime aggressive style has to be avoided and there is a need to review from a research and academic point of view. For this, it is very important to keep in mind modern laws and modern investigations
Smart Healthcare Using Data-Driven Prediction of Immunization Defaulters in Expanded Program on Immunization (EPI)
No full textImmunization is a noteworthy and proven tool for eliminating life-threating infectious diseases, child mortality and morbidity. Expanded Program on Immunization (EPI) is a nation-wide program in Pakistan to implement immunization activities, however the coverage is quite low despite the accessibility of free vaccination. This study proposes a defaulter prediction model for accurate identification of defaulters. Our proposed framework classifies defaulters at five different stages: defaulter, partially high, partially medium, partially low, and unvaccinated to reinforce targeted interventions by accurately predicting children at high risk of defaulting from the immunization schedule. Different machine learning algorithms are applied on Pakistan Demographic and Health Survey (2017-18) dataset. Multilayer Perceptron yielded 98.5% accuracy for correctly identifying children who are likely to default from immunization series at different risk stages of being defaulter. In this paper, the proposed defaulters' prediction framework is a step forward towards a data-driven approach and provides a set of machine learning techniques to take advantage of predictive analytics. Hence, predictive analytics can reinforce immunization programs by expediting targeted action to reduce dropouts. Specially, the accurate predictions support targeted messages sent to at-risk parents' and caretakers' consumer devices (e.g., smartphones) to maximize healthcare outcomes
Society: The future of a crisis
No full textNadeem Hussain and Qazi Muhammad Zulqurnain Ul Haq argue that Pakistan’s national security depends not only on militarised borders but also on strong socio-economic and political institutions. The Covid-19 pandemic exposed weaknesses in Pakistan’s healthcare, emergency response, and epidemic preparedness, ranking it among the least prepared countries globally. The crisis disrupted food supply chains, strained healthcare facilities, and threatened economic stability, potentially shrinking GDP growth into negative territory. NDMA’s disaster management system lacks a proactive, research-driven approach. The authors stress the need for holistic policies, adherence to international health regulations, robust governance, better resource allocation, strengthened higher education, and secure food supply chains to improve resilience. They urge Pakistan to adopt a societal perspective, integrating health, economic, and institutional strategies to better prepare for future crises

The poverty front
No full textNadeem Hussain and Qazi Muhammad Zulqurnain Ul Haq highlight that five out of ten people in Pakistan live in multidimensional poverty, with severe poverty concentrated among illiterate, unskilled households in rural areas and urban slums. The Poverty Alleviation and Social Safety Division, led by Dr Sania Nishtar, has implemented initiatives like Ehsaas cash transfers, scholarships, and kifaalat programmes, gaining recognition as one of the top-performing federal divisions. The division improved data accuracy, targeting deserving households, and managed emergency cash disbursements during Covid-19 with minimal corruption. However, rising inflation, debt servicing, and historical inefficiencies limit long-term poverty alleviation. The authors argue for aligning federal and provincial efforts, prioritising poorest districts, investing in education and healthcare, and adopting a holistic, long-term strategy to reduce poverty and inequality in Pakistan
