29 indicators of sustainable economic development in 2010s.

1. 29Ts
Sustainable Development
Indicators
(A Thesis)

2. Problem
The researcher has been writing economic
reports on Pakistan. He has been studying
news articles but could not understand the
fact-fudging by the policymakers. Students of
Economics asked me to give new parameters
to forecast economic progress of Pakistan.

3. Hypothesis
Twenty-nine
indicators clearly
elucidate the state
of a State for
scholars and
policymakers
worldwide.
Statement
Should Pak-India
become one to
apply this neuro-
socio-economic
theory?

4. Tree
Trees are essential for life like water. They not
only provide us oxygen but also create positive
externality. Forests cover less than 5%
landmass. Trees must be chosen carefully.
Recently a Pakistani soldier has made world
record by planting 10,000 saplings in a day.
Every beggar in India and Pakistan must be
asked to plant a tree for his or her lifetime
spiritual reward.

5. Travel
Modern transportation means are in use
worldwide. Pakistan has a good infrastructure
of road, rail and air travel and transportation.
Besides spiral effect of inflation, price hike of
petrol has increased the cost of travel. It is still
difficult to travel far-flung hilly areas where
roads are not available. Indus River can be
used for sea travel and transportation
throughout Pakistan with collaboration with
China or America.

6. Train
Every year about 70 million Pakistanis travel
by train inside the country. Cargo railcars help
transfer heavy goods at cheaper rate. Interior
of trains can be used for advertising and
awareness. Pakistani trains never keep time.
Japanese and Russian experts can improve
Pakistan Railways. Management of Pakistani
trains should be given to private sector for
efficiency and profit generation.

7. Trade
Local and international trades are very
important in any economy. Local trade is
conducted chiefly through road and rail
whereas international trade is done through
air and sea. The competitive advantage of
Pakistan is staple crops and couple of
industrial goods. International trade for
Pakistan has been remained in deficit as
imports are greater than exports.

8. Tourism
Tourism of Pakistan is declining because of
terrorism and lack of best facilities to
international tourists. There is no Disney Land
and Desert Tourism. King Abdullah of the H.K.
of Jordan is famous for promoting tourism in
his country. We find statements on internet
that Pakistan is best for Terrorism Tourism.
Arrival of international tourists will be down in
calendar year 2011.

9. Taekwondo
This physical game represents sports in any
country. Though Hockey is our national game
yet we investment time, energy and money on
Cricket. Pakistani cricketers have made the
country a mighty laughing stock in the world.
Cricketers are famous in match fixing and
gambling. Progress of a country must be
evaluated in number of sportspersons
produced in a year.

10. Tax
Tax is the backbone of every economy. Taxes are
increasing every passing year in Pakistan. The
volume of federal fiscal budget for year 2011-12
is around Rs.1780 billion. Generally Pakistanis are
tax-evading people as tax of Rs.37 billion was
evaded on ESAF Containers smuggling. Tax-GDP
ratio in Pakistan is lowest in Asia. It is said that
deposits of Rs.28 trillion in Swiss Banks can
facilitate Pakistani taxpayers. I still claim that
Cyber Tax-Free Pakistani Economy is possible.

11. Tort
Tort stands for lawyers and judiciary in a
country. Youth choose this profession for love
of M.A. Jinnah. Lawyers never advocate for
“External Jury Members” in court for speedy
justice. According to Charles de
Montesquieu, useless laws weaken the
necessary laws. Pakistani jurists make money
from people and don’t abrogate useless laws.
My thesis “Avenues of Justice” can be read.

12. Tea
Tea is served in every home, office and place
especially in northern areas. Pakistan also
produces and imports tea. Couples of tea
brands are available with high price. Scientists
have discovered fluoride in black tea. We take
tea religiously several times a day without
considering physician’s advice. Children should
be served two cups of tea daily especially
Moroccan.

13. Tobacco
Though tobacco is a wormwood product yet it
is widely used in the world. No wise person
recommends tobacco yet this industry is
growing every year. Indians and Pakistanis are
cigarette smokers conditioned by the British.
Can in Islamabad British High Commissioner,
Mr. Adam Thomson restrain Pakistanis from
this habit? Price wise Pakistani cigarette
smokers are being fooled by tobacco
companies.

14. Textile
Pakistani textiles are elegant and famous in
the world because of Manchester of East i.e.
Faisalabad. Fabric gurus are Bhatti and
BeeJee. Federal Ministry of Textile has been
established for competitive edge of Pakistani
textiles in Europe and North America.
Graduates are carving fine prints for spinning
mills and ladies.

15. Technology
Pakistanis are using state-of-the-art home
appliances and computer equipments. Radios,
personal computers and wireless internet have
become part of every village. Still we have to
develop Smart Intel Boxes for households and
offices. At Government level, security technology
is lacking which is evident from murders of
Benazir Bhutto and Salmaan Taseer. Corporate
sector must finance for research and
development in Biotechnology and
Neuroeconomics.

16. Television
Television set has become part of every family.
These are used in every good office. Pakistanis
are fond of watching TV from a distance of
under 10 feet. Leading brands are
Philips, Sony and Hitachi. Nobel TV is also
manufacturing color TV sets. The world is still
waiting for sublime definition TV sets with
fragrance and early warning device.

17. Telephone
Telephone has become part and parcel of
every Pakistani individual and organization.
Cellular phone consumers have crossed 100
million in the country. People can get their
favorite number from couple of network.
Leading cell operators are Telenor and
Mobilink whereas landline operators are PTCL
and SCO. People and children should keep cell
phone away especially at nighttime.

18. Terrorism
Pakistan is inflicted with terrorism and has
seen over one decade. Everybody around the
world has become bore with terroristic
activities in this country. Solution of terrorism
is only and only sophisticated technology.
United States of America is providing all
assistance and Pakistan has to get rid of this
daymare by 2011.

19. Tuberculosis
TB is symbol of diseases. Pakistanis are
infected with score of diseases including TB.
Direct Observe Treatment Strategy (DOTS) is
the modern remedy for this disease. Students
can know about wellness of people with
diseases spurred by animals. Dustbins along
roadsides in Islamabad are major source of
diseases.

20. Tomato
It is a source of vitamin and used in every dish
in every house and office. Pakistan is self
sufficient in producing tomato but sometime
we see shortfall. Household women use
yogurt as alternate of tomato. Irani tomato
dishes are famous in the world.

21. Tractor
Tractors and trolleys are important in
agriculture sector of Pakistan. They enable
farmers to move their crops from villages and
towns to factories and cities. The number of
tractors and trolleys are steadily increasing in
Pakistan owing to loans from several banks.

22. Tube-Well
Tube-well are important for watering the
crops in Pakistan and India. Government of
India is providing free electricity to tube-well
owners for better crops. Loans are also being
given to farmers in Pakistan especially in
Punjab to buy solar-and-wind operated tube-
wells.

23. Tablet
Pharmacy is important sector of an economy.
Tablet is symbol of vaccinations and drugs.
Tablets must be used in consultation with
physicians and psychiatrists. Lots of Pakistani
and Multi National Corporations are
producing life saving drugs. More investment
is required to produce cost-effective
medicines.

24. Toy
Toys are essentials for children’s mental
health. Lots of toys from China are available in
bazaars throughout the country. Pakistani toy
makers have to compete with Japanese
gismos and gadget makers to qualify for
Silicon City.

25. T-Guarder
It is a symbol for housing sector. Mostly
companies use them at factories. In villages,
people still use them for making homes and
garages. Several companies are manufacturing
them. Several housing societies are providing
houses to people. In future, people will make
houses in water like U.A.E. Pakistanis can also
make houses on Indus River.

26. Teeth
Teeth represent population in a country.
Strong 32 teeth in an adult person tell a lot
about physical health. Dental surgeons
recommend for cleaning teeth thrice a day
and regular checkup twice a year. Pakistanis
must follow “12-Tooth Smile” as a happy-go-
lucky nation.

27. Tan Sen
A country can be measured by musicians and
singers produced in a year. In Pakistan, music
bands are famous but cinema is in trouble.
Famous singers are Freeha Altaf and Hadiqa
Kiyani. Music schools must be established to
create good symphonies for depressive nation.

28. Toma Hawk
We teach nonviolence to children but make
arms. This phenomenon makes us fool in eyes
of children and aliens. Pakistan and India are
racing for missile technology that hampers
progress. Arm race is undesirable in any
country, therefore, the North and Los Angeles
must take note of it.

29. Teacher
A country is known by its teachers. Progress of
a country can be checked by number and
quality of teachers produced in a year. I have
already suggested that university professors
must teach in schools one day in a week. It’s
shame that we could not produce just ten
Nobel Laureates since 1971.

30. Tourmaline
Gems and jewelry of Pakistan are famous in
world especially in South Africa. Gems are
worn by women and men in Pakistan. They
think that gems bring some happiness which is
not true. There are natural deposits of raw
gems in Pakhtoonkwa and Baluchistan. Some
people wear gems as a code in insecurity
zone. There are few gem-refining factories in
Pakistan.

31. Thoughts
Performance of a country can be evaluated by
ideas or concepts generated in a year.
Knowledge Network of Bob Buckman is a role
model for all. Talented Pakistanis developed
new products and theories that remain
hidden. Engro Corporation or Pakistan Center
for Philanthropy must arrange expos in major
cities to showcase ideas.

32. Tension
Though Dr. Riaz Bhatti, Pakistani psychologist
has discovered solution for whims which
Hakim Luqmaan (RA) could not find out.
Moreover, 97% Pakistanis are under
depression. Laughter therapy is short-run
solution whereas economic wellbeing is
permanent solution.

33. Argument for Hypothesis
There is no need to merge Pakistan and India
to implement this neuro-socio-economic
theory. Two or more countries can be
compared with these prime indicators.

34. Global & Local Knowledgebase
Neuropolitician
A politician who endeavors to understand oneself and
mental state of his or her constituent members for mutual
development.
12-Tooth Smile
It is desirable smile for Pakistanis and Indians if they want
to improve tourism and win hearts of U.S. Congress.
Daymare
It is frightening day dreaming faced to security officers in
Pakistan.

37. Countries Index
The following countries have been discussed in the theory which prove
that it can be implemented worldwide.
Canada China
India Iran
Japan Jordan
Morocco Pakistan
Russia South Africa
United Arab Emirates United Kingdom
Unites States of America

38. Findings
• Intelligent Pakistani people know about
problems and their solutions as well.
• In any country between the lines suggestions
can be implemented e.g. 12-Tooth Smile
attitude, Smart Intel Box, and Water Homes.
• Everyone can get benefit from this unique
American-style thesis.

39. Recommendations
• Scholars are requested to give feedback. They can
suggest further indicators start with “T”.
• In Post-Wikileaks-World, quarterly or annual
economic reports must be developed in public sector
and foreign missions on 29Ts Indicators.
• This theory must be made part of Basic Economics at
“A” level because it is easy to remember and
implement.
• It can be translated in other languages but with prior
permission of theorist.

40. Global Challenge
This is a simplified sustainable development
indicators theory for children and economists.
It took me twenty-three days to complete the
thesis. This theory must be made part of
Kinder Gorton so that we could produce right
kind of Neuroeconomists and
Neuropoliticians.
