India is to the east and China in the far northeast. The country is strategically located between South Asia, Central Asia, and the Middle East. Land is a valuable natural
resource.

insider.pk/national/natural-resources-of-pakistan/ 2/17
Bituminous, sub-bituminous, and lignite coal have been found in Pakistan.
Coal reserves are estimated at 175 billion tons. This would equate to 618 billion barrels of crude oil. When compared to oil reserves his is more than twice the amount of the top four
countries. If At KSAs current usage, the reserves would last more than 200 years.
Oil and Gas
Natural gas production is at a high level in Pakistan. Estimated reserves are 885.3 billion cubic meters (as of January 2009). Gas fields are expected to last for another 20 years. TheSui gas field is the largest, accounting for 26% of Pakistans gas production. Daily production is 19 million cubic meters a day. Under the barren mountains of Balochistan and the
sands of Sindh, there are untouched oil and gas reserves.
Forestry
Forests are limited to 4% of Pakistans land; nonetheless the forests are a main source of food, lumber, paper, fuel wood, latex, and medicine. The forests are also used for wildlife
conversation and ecotourism.
Mining
Pakistan has large gold/copper ore deposits at Saindak. There are large deposits of rock salt in the Pothohar Plateau. Pakistans mineral resources include reserves of gypsum,
limestone, chromites, iron ore, rock salt, silver, precious stones, gems, marbles, tiles, sulfur, fire clay, and silica sand.
Land
About 28% of Pakistans total land area is under cultivation. Pakistan boasts one of the largest irrigation systems in the world. According to Wikipedia, the most important crops are
cotton, wheat, rice, sugarcane, maize, sorghum, millets, pulses, oil seeds, barley, fruits and vegetables, which together account for more than 75% of the value of total crop output.
The fertile lands of Punjab are ready to feed a population twice that of current Pakistan.
Uranium
Pakistan has a long history of exporting small amounts of uranium. In 2006 Pakistan produced about 45 tons of uranium.
Water
Fresh Fish by Asim Bijarani via Flickr
The fishing industry plays a role in the national economy of Pakistan. The coastline is 814km and fishery resources still have room to grow. Fishing in Pakistan is a major source of
export earnings.
Pakistan is rich in diverse natural resources. Pakistans human resources include a population of intelligent young people and a burgeoning urban middle class. The culture, knowledge,wealth, and infrastructure are sure to grow and improve in the near future. This combined with its prime location will lead to long-term success for the nation.

Allah Almighty has blessed Pakistan with all components for achiveing sustainable economic development.But the problem is that our political leaders are failed to utilize those
natural resources for betterment of common people of Pakistan.Take the example of forestry in Gilgit-Baltistan,where the fedral governmnet has been allowing the wealthy
people to cut down more and more trees,and the local people of Gilgit-Baltistan are not getting any benifit out of this distructive activity.If the pace of cutting forest in GB,
remains the same for couple of years then there is a chance to become this area barren like the other parts of Pakistan.So being Pakistani we should stand up against scuh
policies of the governmnet which lead our country towards distruction and catastrophe.

I agreed with my friends but i will say here that we need to help of Pakistan as youngs. There are 60000000 youngs in pakistan and mostly are students. If our students makesure their study well and give their little time to our government depts to make progress i say surely that no power and country of the world can stop of progress and
devlopment of GRATE PAKISTAN.

It is true that the Islamic Republic of Pakistan is very much rich in all sorts of natural resource and God gifted wealth,but it will not be out of place to say here that it is very
unfortunate to the country of pakistan that this country is in the hands of unloyal and selfish political leaders,army generals and land lords who exploit all sorts of resources for
thier own pocket.It is also very unfortunate to our country that the general masses of pakistan do not want to change their fate by themselves,because it needs the secrifice of
blood.In the 63 years long history of this country we the people of pakistan could not unite under one flag,and are being divided by the slogans of,cst,creed,language, ethnic,
and religious secterion system to be easly ruled and prey by our elites,as the were taught and injucted by the english(Ferangi),divide and rule.So we need to secrifice ourselves
for over turning the slavery way of life by defining our own way of Government.

Dont blame the leaders when the whole nation is corrupt. People need to stop blaming the leaders. where do they come from? From the nation itself. People need toaccept their responsibilties.
We Pakistani are just proud to be born Muslims and in Pakistan. But how many of us are even part of the nation? We are just pround but our actions make us so ashmed that
where ever you look in the world Pakistanis are treated as dogs.
A few traits of a Pakistani Dishonest, Lier, Irresponsible, Corrupt, Unjust and the list goes on. So do you want to call yourselve a Nation based on these traits and also a
Muslim???

Sindh and Balochistan provinces, but still Balochistan remains in the mountains with no schools, no education, no hospital, no anything. While Punjabi people who only have
rice and cotton lives a luxurious life. This is not what i call a islamic country. Shame on Pakistani gov.

Story of a small village.
There was a small village in an under developed area with no schools, water, electricity or road. There was only a zig zag walkway with a lot of ascends and descends, that
connected the village to the nearest town.One could not even ride a bicycle on this track. The villagers were peace loving people with a lot of respect and love for each other
and specialy for elders. Mostly farmers, with very small peace of land, each family, hardly enough to feed them throughout the year. In the absence of govt help,on occasions of
marriages and funnerals get togathers, they used to discuss their grievances and difficulties and possible solutions to their problems. One fine day they decided to go for self
help.Each family contributed what ever they could and they started to pave the village streets. After finishing this job there was smile of success on every face. A welfare fundwas initiated for schools, water wells, paved road and eletricity.Two plots of land were donated by villagers and construction of two rooms each started. Furniture was
purchased and boys & girls primary schools were ready.Approval from local govt was easy as every penny was raised and spent on self help basis.Next came the wells and
with arrival of electricity, water problem was history.Land and funds donated by villagers and with some help from local govt, dream of paved road came true.With scarcity of
govt and private jobs, people started hunting overseas job markets. Today they are asset for this small village. With positive attitude and positive thinking, widows,orphans and
poor are helped. Widows and orphans of this blessed village are living life much better than millions of their compatriots. Today one can find engineers,doctors, teachers and
highly educated in this small village of approx eighty families. Most of the girls are post graduate, graduate or matric at least.
This is a fifty years long journey of a small village of northern Punjab. No protests or guns except selfhelp were used to achieve this.
THIS ALL WAS POSSIBLE BECAUSE THERE WAS NO CHAUDHARY, MALIK, KHAN, SAIEN, WADERA OR SARDAR TO GUIDE OR MISGUIDE THEM.GOD HELPS THOSE WHO HELP THEMSELVES. SHUN HATRED, SPREAD RESPECT AND LOVE CAUS YOU HAVE TO LIVE ONCE ONLY.TRUST
YOURSELF, DEVELOP YOUR VILLAGE OR NEIGHBOURHOOD ON SELF HELP BASIS. BEAUTIFY YOUR AREA AND VERY SOON INSHA ALLAH
PAKISTAN WILL BE PARADISE ON EARTH.
GOD BLESS PAKISTAN AND PAKISTANESE.

If you want to do anything for your beloved country, start from your neighbourhood. Search for the poorest and help them, feed the hungry neighbours. Help educate
those who cannot afford the expenses. Keep your home and the area tidy and clean. This will make Pakistan more beautiful. Educate the nation. Educated youth will be
the real asset of Pakistan.

Dear/friends we all know it that pakistan come in to bieng on 14agust 1947 one blunder mistak had been occurred. at that time, It was injustice. Becaues a rule which is apply
to all new born countries is aqual distribution of resources to the peoples of new born country wen few faimlies peoples are acoppy on resources whole country, how can
progress,we?no never we can be .
lets think a man ve 50 thousand acare, the only one person ve great resources for doing everything n 50 thousand peoples are hangry thirsty n naked ,,what pity flop is that oursociety
on which we ve proud if we want to save this country we will ve to save 15 crore peoples then few faimlies just cum farword snatch the resouces from few faimlies n distribute
them among the 15 crore peoples of pakistan best of luck for all friend

Agree to some extent. This problem is in every country. Only the 10-15% will hold most of the wealth in any country. Be it Pakistan, UK, USA, India. Why India is
making so much progress in every business? They have more poor people than us. The problem lies with every individual in Pakistan. I have summarised a list of
behaviours in my previous post which will destroy any nation and Pakistan is no different.
Rahi has told a very good story and we need that in every house, street, village and city. Honesty is key here and there is the saying God helps those who help
themselves.A positive attitude, education, sincerity, passion and drive to do something, determination and unity.
If we can try to incorporate the above in our everyday life I see Pakistani nation to be the best in less time than one can imagine.

ONE CHILD ONE TREE FOR GREEN PAKISTAN.
Forests play very important role in economy and developement of a country. Furniture, plywood, chipboard, hardboard, cardboard, paper products, fire wood, fibers,
medicines and thousands of products are manufactured from trees and plants.Countries like Brazil, Chile, Malaysia and Indonesia etc are earning billions of dollars annualy from
their forests AS THEY HAVE MORE THAN 50 % of their land covered with forests while PAKISTAN HAS ONLY 4 TO 5 %. Even India has 24 % forests. We are 180
million people in Pakistan and spring season has started. Let us start planting trees only one plant per person of our families. We can name each tree to the name of each family
member and can look after these like we do for our loved ones. Where are you young Pakistanese? take the charge, guide the nation. Let us add 180 million trees to our
forests to get healthy environment, free fresh air, oxygen and make PAKISTAN real green. We can plant one tree on the birth of each child and look after it easily.GOD BLESS PAKISTAN AND PAKISTANIS.

Thar coal mine which is present in Sindh is not included in the coal section.which is the biggest coal mine of Pakistan.

Three to four billion dollars are required initialy to produce electricity and fuel from Thar coal deposits as per Dr Samar Mubarak Mand. Let us see which govt takes the 1st
step. Otherwise KHUDA NE AAJ JAK USS QOUM KI HALAT NAHI BADLI-NA HO JIS KO KHAYAL KHUD APNI HALAT K BADALNAY KA.

dear Pakistani people please stop to follow the Mullas n Moulbis due to which u all r going down now in this modern world follow high level education, We Indians have a very
high education and will go higher in the future so stop thinking from the Moulbi point of view these are the Moulbis that they vanished the Khilafat and every muslim today facea lots of problem in todays world.

Dear Yasir shah, before u die instruct ur family to burn u like ur
country fellows so that no moolbi or mauula can get the advantage ofany kind.we Pakistanies r proud of our country and we r serving the

What a bullshit Yasir shah u are writing we Indians havs a very high education.. We know condition of Indian Muslims, they are 3rd or 4th class citizens of India.
Poorest among Indians, least educated, left backward by successive Indian governments. If any one of your community member gets a chance to get higher educationdoors of government jobs are closed for your people and you know it very well. POOREST OF PAKISTANIS IS LIVING A MUCH BETTER LIFE THAN ANYOF RICHEST INDIAN MUSLIM. Mind it and keep your advice to yourself and put your good efforts to get a respectable place for Muslims living in India. We also
know that religious extremism is not right and such people are present in every country like Shiv Sena, Bajrangdal and many more in India.
