Answer 2

Per Capita Income Of Pakistan

Answer 3

Pakistan like most developing countries has a multitude of economic problems. First of all Pakistan has the world's sixth-largest population, a relatively small and under developed industrial base and fluctuating agricultural sector.

With a per capita GDP of about $2,080 the World Bank considers Pakistan a low-income country, although it is recorded as a "Medium Development Country" on the Human Development Index 2005. Pakistan has a large informal economy, which the government is trying to document and assess. Approximately 50% of adults are literate, and life expectancy is about 64 years or less. The population, about 155 million in 2004, is growing at about 1.96%.

In a nut shell, the main problem facing the pakistani economy is to sustain a high rate of economic growth to support its huge population and the high birth rate.
