Profit what a shame! Such sub standard article. Did the writer even understand the concept of skilled vs in skilled population in terms of its dividends. Pakistan is sitting on a population time bomb which has actually already exploded!!
The most dumb article Ive ever seen. Already a resource scare Pakistan is unable to provide basic facilities and jobs and here we have this writer who has over-the-top views of such a massive problem
