'Pakistan with a population of 160 million people has a vibrant economy, whose growth rate is 7 per cent. Its vast population makes it South Asia's only large economic area that shall not face a decline in the number of people entering the labour force during the next 50 years.
It is therefore appropriate to say that 'future is ours.' These observations were made by the Punjab Health Minister, Aslam Humayun, while addressing a function held at Children Library Complex here on Wednesday under the auspices of 'Bazm-e-Nonehal' in connection with birth anniversary of Hakeem Muhammad Said Shaheed.
Humayun said that youth are future of our nation and we have to provide them latest education in science and technology. The present era of competition has made the world a global village and only those nations would lead the world as well as compete who possess latest technology and fully educated manpower, he added.
