Syed Mansoob Ali Zaidi1 INFRASTRUCTURE DEVELOPMENT AND ITS IMPACT ON ECONOMY Honorable Chief Guest, Mr. President, delegates, members and professional colleagues! Welcome to the todays proceedings! Today’s symposium looks at the most important sector of infrastructure development in economic growth of the country. Several global regions, particularly the developing countries face many challenges for the infrastructural development in the economic and social fields. Pakistan is going through the same set of problems as are being faced by others in this aspect. The problems are even worse in the case of Pakistan because of a faster rate of population growth and also migration to the cities. To ensure a proper access to the services the public infrastructural programmes are thus required to be implemented at a matching rate. However, in spite of serious efforts, there is still a backlog of infrastructural development virtually all over the country. In case the issues remain unattended or slow in implementation, the lack of infrastructural development is likely to result into a growing social and economic disorder in the near future. The unequal levels of development, present another dimension of a problem associated with the infrastructural development plans. Broadly the infrastructural development could be divided into three main groups, i.e.: 1 Physical Water Supply, Drainage, Roads, energy etc. 2 Social Housing, Medical, Education, etc. Business Districts, Industry, Transport, 3 Economic Communication, etc. It is important to note that there is no use of spending on development projects, if we allow these to deteriorate or vandalized. All infrastructures have to be adequately protected, maintained and upgraded on a regular basis. Provision of basic services (electricity, water, sanitation) to every citizen is the basic right. But this could be permitted with certain conditions, and a due level of moral diligence both from the receivers and the authorities. Our population growth and changes in demography, such as people moving from rural to urban areas, demand that government should strive to provide the infrastructure for more and more people and should also take interest in developing the new areas with due consideration that our natural resource is not unlimited. Water is one such example being a dwindling 1 Convener Symposium Committee / Associate, National Development Consultants (Pvt) Ltd. 2 Key Note resource. We must therefore provide and plan infrastructure development and look at alternatives in a manner that does not put our future generations on handicap. All infrastructural programmes are important, but some are
