巴基斯坦部长：2025年将成为小型超级强权国家



ISLAMABAD: With the help of the government’s ambitious technology plans, the country is on its way to becoming a mini superpower by 2025, said Minister for Planning, Development and Reforms Ahsan Iqbal on Thursday, as he expressed confidence in the country’s future.

得益于政府发展高科技产业的雄心，计划发展和改革部长伊克巴尔在周四表示，巴基斯坦将在2025年成为小型超级强权国家的道路近在咫尺，他还表达了对国家未来的信心。

Iqbal said that the country’s work in initiating cluster-based technology in agriculture and mining was paving way for more development; he stated while chairing a meeting on “Technology as Industry”.

伊克巴尔说，国家正在倡导集群式发展科技产业，主要集中在农业和矿业，这些将会为国家日后大发展铺平道路，他还表示将作为主席出席一个叫“科技就是工业”的大会。

He added that the government was committed to put the country on the path of technology because it was one of the strong drivers of growth. “Growth cannot be achieved through crawling in exports and by relying on commodities.”

他还补充说政府将致力于让国家走上科技强国的道路，因为这将是国家发展的最大动力，“经济不能靠出口还有卖日用品来增长”

He said the government needed to enhance exports in order to achieve growth, which would be possible only with the advancement in technology and value addition.

他表示政府如果要靠出口来取得经济增长，唯一可能的方式就是出口高科技和搞附加值产品。

Economic advancement would only be possible with technological advancement. “Pakistan possesses significant technological infrastructure that provides a platform for development.”

经济发展只有在科技发展的带动下才有可能实现，“巴基斯坦有不错的科技业基础设施，给科技发展提供平台”。

About the economic dividends the country offers to international companies, the minister said, leading IT companies had reported that offshore operational cost and productivity of information technology operations in Lahore were better than Bangalore.

关于巴基斯坦能改给跨国公司提供的红利，部长说，有信息科技公司曾经表述过，在信息业的离岸运作方面来说，在价格和生产率方面，巴基斯坦的拉合尔比印度的班加罗尔更有优势。

Meanwhile, Iqbal called upon the youth in the country to contribute to national development along with their personal and professional pursuits. “The government recognises the potential of youth for national development and it has engaged them in the development process through various initiatives.”

同时伊克巴尔呼吁全国的年轻人，奉献自己和自己的专业技术于国家发展，“国家充分明白年轻人的对国家发展的潜力，他们已经投身于各种各样的发展计划。”

Ministry of Planning, Development and Reforms initiated the Youth Development Fellows (YDF) initiative to ensure the younger generation is a part of the development process. The minister pointed out that Pakistan had a growing youth population and it depended on the government whether it chose to benefit from this great demographic dividend or not.

国家将会倡导青年发展协会带动年轻一代参与到国家的发展中，部长指出，巴基斯坦有着茁壮成长的年轻一代，能否从人口红利中获利取决于政府的政策。

 

There are no categories in superpower regime. You are or you are not. Period.

超级强权国家不分大小，只有是否

Without energy independence there is no such thing as mini-superpower.

能源都不能自给，就别说强权，哪怕是小型强权

Mini superpower means Major Regional Power

小型超级强权也就是说地区强国咯

With China having stronger than expected presence, seems more like mini-me by 2025.

可能中国会有比预期还强的表现，巴基斯坦2015会变成小型中国

Hahaha – I don’t know whether to laugh or cry … It took China 30 years to reach where it is today and Pakistan is going to do it in 10 ….. hahaha dream on!!

我真不知道是笑还是哭，中国花了30年才达到今天的地位，而巴基斯坦也在做这件事，梦就要实现了
