African Countries VS Pakistan

               First I will discuss about the situation of African countries. Africa is ranked 2nd largest continent and 2nd most populous continent in the world. 50% of the world’s gold and diamonds are present in Africa. The continent also leads the world in strategic minerals (rare minerals absolutely vital for industry), possessing 80 percent of the world’s platinum, 49 percent of its palladium, 55 percent of its chromium and 45 percent of its vanadium, among others and  along with large untapped oil reserves. It has an abundance of timber, millions of acres of fertile land, and lakes and rivers capable of producing 40 percent of the world’s supply of hydroelectric power. Besides all these natural resources,some parts of Africa is troubled by

war,instability,corruption,poverty, hunger,disease and untimely death. War ravage the different countries of Africa. Since 1981, no fewer than 28 nations in sub-Saharan Africa have been at war. Why?  The main reason behind this due to lack of true leadership.dictators arose,oftentimes poorly educated military leaders. Instead of serving people , they served themselves and their close companions. Billions of dollars of aod has been given to the disastrous African countries but no gain. This all aid became the part of corruption. From top to bottom  there is corruption. According to Transparency International, in 2008 seven of the 10 most corrupt nations in the world were African. NPR's Ofeibea Quist-Arcton reports from a refugee camp in Kenya that an area straddling Somalia, Ethiopia and northern Kenya has been dubbed "the triangle of death."

                Now let’s talk something about Pakistan and balochistan. Balochistan is the largest province in size in Pakistan. It consists 44% of total land mass of Pakistan. This province is rich in mineral resources than other provinces. The resources being same and maybe in greater quantity than as the resources present in Africa. Because a research has taken place, which concur that land balochistan is the only place in the whole world which is closest to the earth’s core(less height from see level). This means that the greater part of the mineral resources of the world is located there and maybe still ready to be unearth. But the corruption hover all over Pakistan from top to bottom. This affects in the development of balochistan same situation as African countries. Illeteracy ,corruption, feudal system, instability, hunger etc is present in the area. Moreover, India’s negative stance of Indus Basin treaty and cutting of Pakistan’s side of the water ,resulting in infertility of the land. It is believed that if India kept on doing this then it might result in famine like in Somalia. This is quiet alarming.

A lot of hunger has increased in Pakistan and in the whole world due to the increase in the population and black marketing. You will be quiet shocked to hear that despite the regular growth in food production the world hunger has increased . The reason behind all this is the unavailaibility transport which will carry the food to the desired place. It doesn’t matter how much food we have if we can’t get it to where it needs to go. There’s little or no profit drive to get mass-produced food into poverty-stricken areas that are in desperate need of food.  What do you folks think will be the future of Pakistan and this world? Is Pakistan falling in the same catogeroy as Somalia, Ethiopia and northern Kenya? I want your opinion.
