According to Prime Minister Gilani,
Our GDP has doubled to US $170 billion…
It should be noted that the above obviously could not have occurred under the current regime or through any of their efforts. In reality, the above is the fruit of the hard work carried out by the Musharraf government from 1999 till 2007.
Moreover:
The Prime Minister pointed out that today we have a sound architecture in place for developing and strengthening strategic political, economic, commercial, scientific, technological and cultural relations between our two countries.
Again, a quick reminder: the above is thanks only and only due to the effort of the Musharraf government from 1999 till 2007.
While the Prime Minister took the time to mention the role of Zulfikar Ali Bhutto and Benazir Bhutto – conveniently forgetting the fact that both, particularly the former, ruined Pakistan’s economy – he made sure not to mention the one government which transformed our petty economy into the size of $170 billion, with a consistent GDP growth of 6%+ – the Musharraf government.
