Our globalisation challenge
• 30 years of globalisation have seen booms and busts, and also remarkable economic transformation in Asia
• Why is Pakistan not getting rich in rising Asia?
• What have we not done?
• What are we doing wrong?
• What should we do better?

Globalisation in brief• Deepening international production led by TNCs, FDI, and global value chains
• Industrial production is in constant makeover and processes get outmoded more rapidly than capital depreciation
• Externality: enterprises may carry on doing the same while economy can fall behind globally (blind spot)
• Cross-border connectivity can stimulate industrial transformation
• Role for public institutions and industrial policy

Complications• Demographic dividend has created a rising middle class which demands consumer goods
• Worker dividend has generated large inflows of remittances that supplement low incomes and finance trade deficits
• People are getting rich but the economy cannot sustain high consumption, low investment growth

Government should fast-track Vision 2030
• Diversify existing industrial base (technological upgrading, linkages, exports)
• Target growth industries
• Restructure state enterprises
• Encourage SMEs and entrepreneurship development
• Develop clusters of knowledge-based activities
• Education and managerial programs
• Regulatory reform
![Page 15: Globalisation: The Challenge for Pakistan Khalil Hamdani Graduate Institute of Development Studies Lahore School of Economics 26 March 2015](https://reader031.vdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022012918/56649e665503460f94b609ff/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Summary• Domestic markets do not generate adequate incentives to engage in the global economy
• TNCs see Pakistan not as an export platform but as a location for extraction and as a market
• Exports is a blind spot that needs closing
• Government should work with industry to develop export potential and better integrate Pakistan into international production
