Balochistan [Pakistan], May 25 (ANI): Balochistan, a resource-rich province, has been experiencing a disappointing growth rate, widespread poverty, and bad governance.
Khaleeq Nazar Kiani writing in The Frontier Post said that the challenges in managing natural resources have changed the blessing into a curse in Balochistan.
According to the Geological Survey of Pakistan, Balochistan has more than eighty mineral resources with significant deposits. Some have been discovered, while most remain waiting to be explored.
Natural resources can contribute to economic growth, employment, and fiscal revenue but may also cause controversy if mismanaged by weak institutions. The corruption and weak institutions in any Government are an open invitation for various actors to capture the natural wealth, wrote Kiani.
