Catch-Up Time For Dynamic Nations

The document discusses China's rapid economic development and catch-up to other developed nations like Japan. It notes three key factors: 1) China caught up much faster than expected to Japan's level of development, 2) China invested heavily in infrastructure projects, and 3) China invested in improving physical connections to neighboring countries. This shovel-ready approach and high-profile infrastructure projects helped spur urbanization, employment, export growth, and an upgrading of worker skills in China. The document asks if Pakistan could also experience similar development by following China's model of heavy investment in infrastructure.

3 things to be notes………
1. The speed with which China has caught up
with Japan.

2. Investment was made on infrastructure.

3. Investment made to improve physical


connections between China and its
neighboring countries.
what does this shows?????

Chinese followed a shovel ready


approach

while

Japanese followed an insular


approach
After 1987-94…………..
Japanese were not interested in flashy projects
while
Chinese were happy to be identified with
high profile projects like,

 Chasma nuclear plant


 construction of Gwadar port
 construction of Karakoram Highway
This all lead to……….
 Urbanization in china

 Employment to many people

 Increase in export

developed skills
