Evaluation of PTI’s Naya Pakistan and success factors in the mist of economic gloom

Dawood MAMOON

Abstract


Abstract. The paper utilizes unique perception based data calculated by World Economic Survey for the first year of Imran Khan’s government. The data shows that Pakistani economy is in troubled waters since August 2018. Consumer confidence is low and private investors are reluctant to invest capital in new business activity. The detailed analysis on Pakistan’s business competitiveness also presents a bleak picture. The Central Bank of Pakistan is not viewed as independent. However, Imran Khan can be considered a successful politician as his first year has seen increased political stability that was elusive during PMLN government. PTI has also marked a significant victory in its fight against corruption. Furthermore, PTI government has been able to turn around Pakistan’s external sector and there is significant increase in exports and subsequently terms of trade have improved that is telling something positive about PTI’s foreign policy.
