--------------
The Mahomedali Habib Distinguished Lecture on Pakistan is named in honor of one of the leading figures in the history of the Habib family. In addition to successfully guiding the Habib family’s transition from India to Pakistan following independence in 1947, Mahomedali Habib laid the foundations for the House of Habib, a group of powerful business and financial companies. The group has a long-standing history of philanthropy and social service and is currently leading the establishment of Habib University, a liberal arts and sciences university, in Pakistan which aims to bridge the gap between global academia and Pakistan. Toward honoring the legacy of Mahomedali Habib - who was distinguished by his love for Pakistan and his deep commitment to education and philanthropy - the Habib family has decided to endow an annual lecture series in his name. Through this lecture series the Habib family aims to improve and diversify conversations about Pakistan in the United States as well as create opportunities for US and Pakistan-based scholars to dialogue.
This event is presented under the aegis of the Berkeley Pakistan Initiative
Brilliant. Dismissing this man will go down as one of the biggest mistakes Khan's government made. Pakistan is worse off without this man at the helm of its economic policy.
Common. Don't be that childish now.
Atif mian is great on what he does but common, its too much what you are saying
@@skullduggerygillen This could be th biggest mistake, because Pakistani youth is not inspired by economists like him, then it would hard to produce any world class economists in the future.
@@ather1276 - Pakistani youth unfortunately is inspired by the likes of Maulanas , Maulana Ye Maulana Wo. , there are plenty of them around in Pakistan.
Three problems of Pakistan that need to be tackled before any economic (or political) reforms can happen: 1) Mullahgardi; 2) Foujgardi; 3) No Rule of Law
retarded comment
@@PH0T0N not really
True.
well said!
Yes we have tackle Pakistan problem on 27 February 2019
Thanks Atif mian for great effort for Pakistan
Atif Mian is brilliant at simplifying a complex problem. I found Dr Munis Farooqi's first 14 minutes difficult to stay focussed on (sorry). Consider starting to listen from 14 minutes when Dr Mian comes on. The transcript is invaluable for this important talk. Thank you for posting it on UA-cam.
This was wonderful. Thanks Prof. Atif Mian. Now I understand the background of why Pakistan has to frequently go to IMF for a bailout. I wish Pakistan will heed his advice and head to a prosperous future.
Thank you Prof. Atif Mian. Pakistan had an opportunity of having you to set it's economic right during beginning of Imran Khan's regime but Pakistan lost you just because the coward Imran khan could stand against the insane pressure from some non entities . He not only lacked all the 5 Cs of good economic governance identities by you in this brilliant lecture but also any plan or even a will to fix the economy. For a first Pakistan was really on the brink of bankruptcy had he continued in office even for a month more beyond May 22. You just gave the exactly right economic course ,the tax on land being the key. On the contrary Imran khan not only gave amnesty to the investment in real estate sector from any question being asked about the source of investment but also gave this most unproductive sector tax immunity. As a result the real estate sector became the safest haven for black money and rent seeking. His regime was unparalleled in external borrowing and misgovernance of every sector of economy and rule of law. Please sometimes let Pakistan benefit from your critique of the economic management by the current federal govt in pakistan.

As an Ahmadi, my parents left Pakistan After 1974 because of persecution. Here in Germany My brothers and sisters became doctors in different fields and commissionars...we will serve now Germany with loyality...Atif Mian should do same...our grand children may be will come back to Pakistan if there will be better time
You should question your believes than Pakistan.
@@ahmedraza9672 it is just like you a jahil Mulla who is ever ready to declare people KAFIR !
@@ahmedraza9672 Ooy KHOTE DE PUTT tell me something. You are going to tell IMF the agency Pakistan is begging for money , THEY SHOULD CHECK THEIR BELIEVES ? KHOTE DE PUTT ?
@@ahmedraza9672 so should you! is everything you believe in perfect?
You left Pakistan as economic asylum seekers and told fabricated lies
about persecution in Pakistan to to get immigration to settle in Germany & other countries.
You Ahmadi’s are the biggest Liars

unfortunately the religious bigots have taken the center stage in pakistan. it is very sad that an economist like Atif is unable to serve in his own country.
Exactly
Our establishment which control government is secular no economist can work
I guess BJP are very egalitarian non-religious party ruling india?
Horrible sound! It seems the incompetence the good doctor talked about has crept into Berkeley from Pakistan! Kindly print up a transcript or summary of what he has said and circulate. Thanks.
WE,VE ALREADY ENOUGH INCOME COMING, AND WELL DEVELOPED ECONOMY OF PAKISTAN DURING LAST 4 YEARS OF PTI.INSHALLAH.
shukar hai k Atif mian is not finance minister of Pakistan, warna he would have been blamed for Pakistans bad economy.
Those who would have blamed him are blaming the PTI Govt despite the previous Govt being largely responsible
@@UmerMohammed no. actually God is to blame. He has been since ever.
How crazy the religious right and how dumb the govt to let this guy go!
As a successful Indian if I may give you a valuable advice, honestly build a strong and positive friendly relation with India. It will help building Pakistani reputation in the region for investors. If America, Russia or even China can understand the importance of India how could Pakistan be so fool?
Well you think India will do friendship with Pakistan? I think India wants to keep one enemy to feel that they have someone to fight with.
I think they feel that they are more organized, educated and much settled and they don’t want Pakistan’s friendship.
I am agree with the comments made by kamil kashif don't waste your energy on pakistan. waite sometime until .............................................
It’s 2020, why would you find it acceptable to post this video with such crappy audio. Why? Please do better.
Giving up due to sound quality
Isas .improve the voice system .for God sake
Sound is horrible. U r talking about very crucial economic and financial problems of Pakistan,pls invest urself on decent sound system first.
Jazakullah pakistani moulvi jaloos nikal dy gy .

Atif bhai don't waste your energy on this country anymore. You should work for someone who values your worth.

How can an ideological state survive? Fundamentals. Hard choice is change of constitution that is not ideological. Forget myopia as ideological state this is partial blindness no option but accept things will not change or get expert help to change of profession or break up the state like former Yugosalvia. Sorry sometimes terminal illness do not have cure. Ignorance and denial
I am not sure If he said anything new or talked about a magic bullet that could fix Pakistan's economy.
Hey, Last Mile don't have the balls to be a bigot in public ,using pseudonym
total BS. Tell mr Atif that, Pk is not interested in welfare of its people nor any increase in domestic capacity of its people and nation. Their only interest is to increase their domestic capacity of jihad and build more capacity madrasas. The whole idea of Pk was built on this paradise. He himself was kicked out of govt. and still in a dream land.
Tell him to conduct a free and fair elections in his own country and have a true democracy. Make that institution workable before talking all this S***.
Never trust Mia endeing
