I think Pakistani middle class only exists because of Middle East . Pakistan never had any genuine opportunity for middle class to exist.
I joined one of Pakistan’s best Unis after getting my PhD from the US around 9 years ago. Worked there for 5 years. Our students are outstanding and helped me do some amazing research. I even opened a startup to try to create jobs and make myself financially stable. I eventually came to the realization that buying plots would have been better. As far as local startups go, the cost of doing business was way too high and banks and high equipment import costs (through legal channels) ensure that you don’t make a profit. Eventually I moved back abroad. The majority of my former students are now doing PhDs and research in the US and EU. I advised most of them to help their country indirectly and carefully consider the decision to move back. I don’t see things improving unless the elite capture is done away with. There’s no doubt our youth is our biggest asset, however, our system is holding them back and prevents them from reaching their true potential.
True
you are right, i have also wasted 10 years of my life, try to initiate startups and businesses, and sure young generation are talented but most of the time they struck in , due to financial dependecy of families, endless cycle , while elite captured all the resource and on that, move resources to other countries and live lavish life, miserable life there.
Shehzad , there's a huge difference between Indian and Pakistani elites . Elites in Pakistan are Army men and in India are Businessmen . That makes a huge difference .
Just look at the overseas properties and you will see, corrupt politicians and corrupt businessmen out number Pakistani corrupt army men. A nation of corrupt elite, for the corrupt, by the corrupt including chors, ghadaris,and IKs.
Pakistan, a case where army has a country 😂

Bro now in India, Even People who Can't speak a proper sentence in English are getting BMW's Merc, Audi etc.
So, in India its a free market.
Frankly, i am against it and i prefer a certain level of Elitism in Society. ( not too much but a little )
But in India BJP has made it possible for even the little people to get filthy rich.
Bro why are you relating speaking english properly to getting rich..
@@hussainhalai7031 Because in the Indian Subcontinent Most Rich People Send Their Kids to English Medium Private Schools
They are earning it they are spending it, it shouldn't concern you
@@hussainhalai7031 to show that even people from downtrodded sections of society who cannot afford private education are getting rich and so rich that they are buying luxury cars.
Godi-media syndrome.
Indian elite lives in INdia and they enjoy in INida with there money ,, thats the only difference
😂😂 what a joke swisss bank me itna paisa indians ka hai bhai usme se ye sab saale politicians aur bureaucrats 😂
@@ajitdurge7254 do you have proofs ? N I am talking about elites actual business man who generate money . Tata Adani infosys hcl that’s the difference between Pakistan and India . Pakistani won’t invest money back in Pakistani. Indian elite invest earn and send . WhatsApp university mat pado logical socha karo baat kya ho rhi hai
I am talking ABOUT elite business man who actually generate money in India and here we are talking about difference between Pakistan and India . Pakistani elite never invest back in Pakistani. India does , we have reliance , tata infosys, hcl all pharama. biggest market in the world in indian Pharmacy. if any pakistani would have business like Amabai. he willl never build a house or office in pakistani. Go to BKC.. then you will understand and you said swiss bank , do you have proof ? do you understand how financial system , those were the old days in 90\'s when everything was on papaer and there is SWIFT mechanism no one can go with bags of cash in country they have to make a money trails. anyways people set narrative nad make people brain dead
totally agree with you
I honestly admire your bravery Shahzad! It takes immense guts to actually name Malik Riaz. Since Khans removal, this is now the third government but no one’s actually naming Malik Riaz. TV channels don’t have the freedom to speak the truth.
At this point, only chance for Pakistan is a revolution unfortunately. There’s gotta be a tipping point for the people. And I’m certain it’s quite near.
Pakistan has never truly been independent. We’ve always been under colonial rule. The only difference is, after the British left, the colonisers have been our own people. This time, Pakistanis need to get independence from the state of Pakistan.
May Allah protect us all!

Sharing a personal experience, I now remember a Pakistani General (Retired), I met in U. K. and I was asking his experiences and he told me how once he was stopped for over speeding on motorway , and he just called one number, it turned out the traffic police had to personally pay the over speeding fine from his pocket and let him go with apologies.
I used to work for Saudi based ed-tech platform and one of the major investor was pervez musharraf son, Now I understand how he has so much money to invest in startup, an Indian army top brass can even never think of such corrupt money.
Bhai origin of your country itself was landlords looking to preserve their zamindari rights.whats new...only that now the new landlords are your bureucrats and generals
Wrong. The bureaucrats and generals aren't landlords by default, they become corrupt as they rise up the ranks.
Rather they are the descendants of those landlords themselves
Yes and to add to your point, Nehru proposed land reforms but Jinnah could not because his core bank in 1940’s were the zamindars. one of the key points on which Nehru never willing to compromise was land reforms. Indian land reforms are in the 9th schedule. Cannot be revoked even by a new law.
Jinnah created Pakistan just for zamindar so that land feudalism can still prominent 😂😂
@@user-zk5md7gm9kJinnah was Just a tool
Bhai I am becoming your fan day by day, harder and harder 😁Keep it up Bro 👌👍
🙌
Mein to bhai ka cult follower bnta ja rha hn 😁
Yeh harder and harder ka koi double meaning tha bhai kay liyeh?
Basically you are saying the pakistani elite parks all its money abroad, and non of that is spend on people via employment in country or invested in country (or if its quite less then expected) , but rent seeking funds (earned from countries or other means) removed abroad and not invested. That sounds colonialism.
It is colonialism
Not everyone of course
Like you there are very few youtubers in Pakistan who are making meaningful content. Keep going 👍👍👍👍👍👍
🙌
You are on a roll recently, Shehzad. Mannn, I can't even believe you're actually saying all of this, the things we all know, the things we all have heard, the things we all want to be fixed --- somebody is courageous to put it out there, and that too, with such profound analytical and statistical backing. Thank you, man! Like seriously, THANK YOU !!!

Corruption is a problem, but not insidious if the wealth remains within the country working on creating further economic activity. The Pak problem is that the country is looted to transfer wealth to foreign countries. Dubai is just a tip of the iceberg. Multiply that by, say, 10. Essentially, the total debt, ~150$B, is looted and put to work outside the Pak.
The economic, intellectual, moral, and civilizational bankruptcy of Pakistan is comprehensive, thorough, complete, and irreconcilable.
Even in my country India , According to Oxfam report Economic disparity is growing at horrible speed. 1% people has wealth of almost equal to wealth of 51% people .
It is half truth . Actual problem is occupation of Punjab over Sindh and Balochistan, without solving this issue, we can't solve these issues
Punjab doesn't occupy Sindh. Sindh is occupied by its own elite. Balochistan's future is also going in the hands of elites when the conditions are right. You can see the seeds of that in Baloch elites
@@muhdabdullah1 it is your opinion but people of Sindh and Balochistan think differently.
@@muhdabdullah1 these elites are imposed and supported by Punjab
Punjab is hammered by Sindh, the most Suffered/suffering Peoples are Punjabis and Peoples like you are just Barking,.
Punjab is dividend and being Ruled out through Administration that too with out it's people's will,
JB hm loog apna un Sikh bhaiu k abandoned ghroo ko dekhty hain jnhy Sindhi Jinnah k Lia nikala hmary battku NY to kleeja muh ko ata hain,. Zulm kia tha Galat kia tha,. They were the sons of the soil just like us,. Tum ghyru ki vjy sa Apnu ko nikala frr v Tum ghyrr, ghyrr hi ho,.
@@hameed426 PPP has been ruling Sindh since decades.
PPP is rich while Sindh is not.
Its the Elite culture which is mainly keeping Sindh backwards.
The Sindh elite use Punjab as an escape goat.
All third world countries have same issues
& u r right, india me bhi ek elite hai.

Gud job 👍👍
If you ask the leftist they will say whole world is a elite capture
Now India has a Capitalist deep state. During the cold war era we had a Socialist deep state where institutions exploited the mass.
How to get into Pakistan elite club, seems enjoyable 😅

Do you have a pdf of Political Conflict in Pakistan
Establishment only cares about this if they want to take advantage of politicians or certain politicians. The fact is, even the generals do not prefer to put their stake in Pakistan. And why would they? They (elites) know their policies will not bring Pakistan back to normal, so push money outside to keep value, while their policies generate more money in Pakistan for them. Perfect business for everyone. Aur shareef woh hai jiko moka nahin mila bhai! (applies to majority)
I wish there is an investigation on property in Canada too!
Unbelievable clarity and work. Kudos to the work you do

Highly appreciated, continue please,

Good work Shehzad . Keep educating

Me and my wife had a small business. We are white collar people making good living for ourselves. But recently we both were able to sleep only 5 hours and working round the clock and still barely making ends meet. I moved to UK and my wife is selling business and she'll soon be here too. We wont invest in Pakistan ever again. All because of economic conditions and bribe culture.
Why he is not taking name of Generals

Modi bhale hi right wing hai but economically progressive hai.Modi 3.0 me mujhe lagta hai ki, pakistan se trade start ho sakti hai. Vo humare india 🇮🇳 ki economy k liye bhi accha hoga and Pakistan k inflation k liye bhi. Bcz next 5 yrs going to be tough for the world
It means most of pak politician do not love their country. They love their family only ...why ???? They got a whole country, they can do little corruption and more development. Jine k liye roti kapda makan hi to chahiye ...
excellent analusis with faccts

We are in a dire situation. Army is cutting the branch it is sitting on. PTI is a one man show. Religious extremists are offering illusions of past glory. What is the way forward?
Way forward is to immigrate to Canada

@@ThePakistanExperience okay ji .. Shehzad
Apologies for the long comment 😰
Between minute 6-6.30 you said Ambanis and adanis are at least investing in the country - is that not the equivalent of Khata hay to lagata bhi to hay? Given your discussion with Rosita Armytage was about this whole thing and how you have mentioned several times that the elite thinks that because unho ne ye factories lagayi hui hain to unki wajah se employment hay etc.
I believe you could have made a stronger argument there and would love to know how you'd objectively approach the difference between the intellectual prowess of india (or any other country)'s elite. Likely that you have answered it further in the video so will listen to it and reply if I think you've answered it.
It’s still better than rent seeking, making money and then taking that money to Dubai
@@ThePakistanExperience Understand your point. The whole economic-political landscape of pakistan is multilayered and looking at it in 0s and 1s won't get us anywhere. Love how you've over the course of TPE have worked so hard to do that. Obviously it isn't humanly possible for you to do it all in totality. But I have certainly found myself more informed and unlearned a lot to develop a new perspective and probably have made more room in my personality for objectivity over emoational appeal.
This particular argument about Indian v Pakistani elite you made I think was unlike you. Looking at GDP per capita vs dubai investments, Pakistan's GDP per capita is around 62% of india's and investments are 64%. Again it is just one data point, but I think Dubai-wise our elite hasn't done too bad compared to them lol.

Topic can be anything but bhai ka soft corner for Nawaz (now +Zardari) and khundas for Khan (& his supporters) will remain permanent...

Many people are lucky they are living in IK's time as they can simply say this name again and their shops keep running. Even when IK's name was not in the list he hadddddddd to start the discussion with his name.
Indian diaspora is mostly going to Canada and Usa ..and blue collar workers are going to UAE with some rich people too.
I think for Pakistani elite, they are a lot less likely to go to western countries..and more likely to go to UAE..
Indian bussinessman are very diverse own property in almost all good performing countries usa Canada Germany uk uae Saudi Rwanda india Sri Lanka etc
Great

I’ll be looking for a political podcast of this level in India. Have not found one yet.

Dear Shehzad ji,
Please make a podcast with former FBR Chairman Shabar Zaidi regarding Dubai leaks. Every type of corruption is usual & normal in a society of unaware, unwise public. Even media houses & senior journalists become purchasable. However social media in Pakistan is performing its duty to some satisfaction. Thanks
Ok
