E2E are just a bunch of thieves. I ordered something and they not only didnt deliver the consignment but have lost its contents and now blame me for booking the consignment on a holiday. These companies are just like Ponzi Schemes.

Pheeww.. Good to see India was kept out otherwise all the spots they would have taken. To tell you the truth we are the No.1 economy in South Asia if you dont consider India.Recommend

@scorp, India is mahan, is the best best country that every has been and will be, it is so progressive that milk and honey flows in every street, all people worry about is Yoga, Bollywood and IT without worrying about corruption/poverty/insurgencies.

Please let small guys like us ,Pakistanis, be happy with our little achievements. :->

Yeah, we got the truth. Pakistan will be number one in the world if you don’t consider the rest of the nations.

@Imran Mohammad : first i am not here to stir up anything over here,but just to point out a deliberate attempt of a Turkish pipe dreamer’s idea to make them look bigger than what actually they are.Either you can understand it or you can be happy with the report, but i would reserve my right to question the report, why is Indonesia or Malaysia are missing from the list,if included Turkish look like puny or bumblebee

@fahim:
Fool’s paradise Indian? Have you ever been to Algeria or Jordan? Nope? so what’s the fuss about?
Secondly, this is exactly like when you compare India with Pakistan. How can India be ever compared to Pakistan considering its economies of scale.

Indians do live in a fool’s paradise.

Look at Indians here. I thought your economy is teetering as we speak. We know your obsession for your billionaires. That’s why they owned much of your country’s wealth. Secondly, the Arab world feed you Indians, how could you reduce them to be a lower world? Many of you Indians will give up Mumbai for Dubai anytime you get a chance and yet you look down at the Arab world? The Arab cities are clean, beautiful and magnificent. Not one Indian cities could come close to that. Food for thought.

Instead of ridiculing this small Pakistan’s achievements, go and pay attention to your 10% Inflation and currency slipping down the market. Hell is breaking loose: http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/business/india-business/India-may-face-its-worst-financial-crisis-in-decades-as-rupee-retreats/articleshow/10993042.cms

The comments from Indians here truly betrays their mentality.

First, to our geniuses from across the border… whether you like it or not Pakistan is considered – the greater middle east by the United Nations. We are a cross-roads civilization at the intersection of central asia, south asia and the greater middle east. Pakistani territory is a few kilometers away from the arabian peninsula. We are on the arabian sea. Pakistan is similar to Turkey which sits at the intersection of Europe, Asia and the greater middle east. Gwardar was an Omani colony. It is perfectly adequate for Pakistan to be part of this list.

Second, your bragging about Infosys and TCS is obnoxious and nauseating on a pakistani newspaper on a pakistani (ahem middle east) topic completely unrelated to you. For five decades, Pakistan GDP growth % was greater than India’s. Did we brag like you? I hope not. It was only in the 90s the america outsourced to modern day tech-serfs.

Third, I would live in Turkey, Algeria or Jordan ANY DAY over incredible, shiny India. Your bragging is strange since 4 million Indians choose to live in the Middle East instead of India!

Fourth, to the misguided gentleman who thinks Tata Consulting Services is equal to all of middle east, Let Tata catch up to ARAMCO first then it can take on the whole middle east.

Fifth, to the Indian belittling Turkey, do you know what their per capita income is compare to anyone in South Asia? Are there 700 million people living in sub-saharan conditions in Turkey?

Sixth, Learn to give some recognition to others. We are in the middle of tremendous strain, war, yet we sustain, create, build no matter how small…. Learn to give some credit. Afridi was right.

reformistani:your comparison of ARAMCO with TATA shows your ignorance more than anything,first ARAMCO is a (completely)state owned privately run organization which directly comes under their ministry of oil and gas,FYI if you take ARAMCO out of KSA, Saudi’s economy make Somalia look more attractive if not better.

All I can say is… ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! :) At the story as well as the comments!

@scorp

Indians, first you make a foolish boast that TCS is equal to all of middle east companies. upon correction, you start talking about whether ARAMCO is private or public. are you making rules as you go along? stay on point. Saudis have over a TRILLION DOLLARS invested in the world’s biggest, most profitable, most advanced companies. They could buy India 10 times over. You think just because you had a good decade, you are filthy rich compared to everyone else? There are 1.3 billion Indians yet your GDP economy is smaller than tiny ITALY. How dare you insult other countries like Somalia? 700 million Indians live worse than Somalis. The others 600 million seem to be on Pakistan-related news forums!

Second, so what if the list is arbitrary. Pakistan IS PART OF central Asia & greater middle east i.e. Turkey. pakistan was part of central asia for 5000 of the last 5500 years. If some private organization or publication wants to include a select group in a summit, what is your problem? Maybe they want to enhance bilateral, cultural ties?

Third, Are we allowed to discuss our own companies irrespective of their revenues? This is a Pakistani newspaper. guess what? we are going to discuss and celebrate local entrepreneurs.
