Abstract
An endeavor has been made in this paper to ascertain the reasons behind the bleak performance of the economy of Pakistan in spite of the fact that the country possesses cheaper labor as compared to many countries of the world. With a big portion of our labor force – comprising of women has been neglected even from unemployment alleviation planning. The data used in this study was available from December 2007 to September 2010. Looking up to neighboring China and its economic progress as the most populated country of the world brought its population in the economic fold, Pakistani government also needs to come up with some similar strategy but related to its own society norms. Pakistan could also bring a big part of its population by strengthening microfinance sector and subsequently small sector of the country. There is great scope in the microfinance industry in Pakistan provided that the government objectively patronizes the activities of the microfinance banks and institutions.
