Salaam,
Thankyou so much for your nice reply. But I think you missed some part of my query. I also asked for the flaws in the Policies.
Addition:
The definition of Official Poverty line in Pakistan is flawed. According to the worldwide definition, people who live on less than $1 a day are said to be below poverty line while the statistics achieved in Pakistan are based on surveys on household (family) basis. According to the Govt: if someone with a family of 5 is earning $1 or more than that a day, he is not considered poor. But in real sense he should only be considered well off if he earns atleast Rs. 9000/month (1$ = Rs. 60).
And if this case is considered... more than 70% of Pakistan will be considered poor.
I want you to provide me detailed analysis of the policies. Because you and I might have totally different ideas.
I will wait for your reply!
Regards,
Adil Memon
