Can Pakistan's military-led economic model deliver lasting growth?

Key points

اہم نکات

मुख्य बातें

  • The Financial Times asks whether Pakistan's military-led economic setup can deliver lasting growth.
  • Since the country nearly defaulted in 2023, the army chief has co-led the Special Investment Facilitation Council, steering canal, energy and mineral projects meant to cut red tape and attract Gulf investment.
  • Supporters say the arrangement brings discipline and faster decisions; critics warn it concentrates power, sidelines civilian priorities and worries investors, especially in energy, where renegotiated contracts have unsettled trust.
  • فنانشل ٹائمز نے سوال اٹھایا ہے کہ کیا پاکستان کا فوجی قیادت والا معاشی نظام پائیدار ترقی دے سکتا ہے۔ 2023 میں ملک کے قریب قریب ڈیفالٹ کے بعد سے آرمی چیف اسپیشل انویسٹمنٹ فیسیلیٹیشن کونسل کی مشترکہ قیادت کر رہے ہیں، جو نہروں، توانائی اور معدنیات کے منصوبوں کی نگرانی کر رہی ہے تاکہ رکاوٹیں کم ہوں اور خلیجی سرمایہ کاری آئے۔ حامی کہتے ہیں کہ اس سے نظم و ضبط اور تیز فیصلے آتے ہیں، جبکہ ناقدین خبردار کرتے ہیں کہ اس سے طاقت چند ہاتھوں میں مرکوز ہوتی ہے، شہری ترجیحات پیچھے رہ جاتی ہیں اور سرمایہ کار پریشان ہوتے ہیں، خاص طور پر توانائی میں جہاں معاہدوں پر دوبارہ بات چیت نے اعتماد کو متزلزل کیا ہے۔ اصل سوال یہ ہے کہ کیا تیز فیصلے وسیع اور پائیدار ترقی میں بدل سکتے ہیں۔
  • फाइनेंशियल टाइम्स ने सवाल उठाया है कि क्या पाकिस्तान का सैन्य-नेतृत्व वाला आर्थिक ढांचा स्थायी विकास दे सकता है। 2023 में देश के लगभग डिफॉल्ट होने के बाद से सेना प्रमुख विशेष निवेश सुविधा परिषद का सह-नेतृत्व कर रहे हैं, जो नहर, ऊर्जा और खनिज परियोजनाओं की देखरेख कर रही है ताकि बाधाएं कम हों और खाड़ी निवेश आए। समर्थक कहते हैं कि इससे अनुशासन और तेज़ फैसले आते हैं, जबकि आलोचक चेतावनी देते हैं कि इससे शक्ति कुछ हाथों में केंद्रित होती है, नागरिक प्राथमिकताएं पीछे रह जाती हैं और निवेशक चिंतित होते हैं, खासकर ऊर्जा में जहां अनुबंधों पर फिर से बातचीत ने भरोसे को हिला दिया है। असली सवाल यह है कि क्या तेज़ फैसले व्यापक और टिकाऊ विकास में बदल सकते हैं।

The Financial Times asks whether Pakistan's military-led economic setup can deliver lasting growth. Since the country nearly defaulted in 2023, the army chief has co-led the Special Investment Facilitation Council, steering canal, energy and mineral projects meant to cut red tape and attract Gulf investment. Supporters say the arrangement brings discipline and faster decisions; critics warn it concentrates power, sidelines civilian priorities and worries investors, especially in energy, where renegotiated contracts have unsettled trust. The real question, the paper argues, is whether faster decisions can turn into broad, durable growth.
