Foreign Relation of Pakistan

Guiding Principles:

The Guiding principles of  Pakistan's Foreign Policy are derived from the Pakistan Movement which embodied the struggle of the Muslim of South Asia for an independent and sovereign state wherein they could build a social order based on Islamic values and traditions.

For a State that came into existence as a result of its impelling sense of Muslim nationhood rooted in Islamic ideology, it was only natural that it should give its unreserved support to the liberation of Muslim still under colonial subjection, and to work ardently for the promotion of Islamic unity and solidarity.

Ethos of Pakistan's Foreign Policy is also determined by its experience of struggle against colonialism and its commitment to the principles and purposes of  the Charter of the United Nations, which hold out the promise for a just political world order in which nations can live in peace and security  and devote their energies for building a prosperous future.

Pakistan Economy

Pakistan's economy presents a story of continuous growth with rare cases of stagnancy. In the whole period of the country's history since it earned independence in 1947, the major stress has been on capital formation, on the one hand, and on alleviation of the people's poverty and elimination of socio-economic inequalities on the other. But never before in the history, such concrete measure were adopted for the distribution of wealth equitably as have been done by the political government which came as a result of general elections held in 1985 in the country. Programs chalked out the political level by the present elected government when brought within the framework of the Annual Development Programs of the last two years of the country's sixth Five -Year Development plan and within the fiscal policies as embodied in the annual budgets, are definitely leading the country towards a breakthrough both in economic management and public welfare measures.
