Pervez Musharraf knew of the challenges he would face both domestically and from the international community embracing both with utter integrity and diligence. He embraced the vision of a Pakistan by both its philosophers and creators, Allama Iqbal and Muhammad Ali Jinnah. He proved he was not only a great solider but also an impressive politician. He faced challenges head on with no fear of failure, despite the odds being stacked against him.

Musharraf took on all challenges ranging from economic to education, health, security and most of all the implementation of liberal values of freedom. Something which the so called ‘democratic champions’, could not and did not want to deliver during the so-called ‘democratic’ periods in Pakistan. I will highlight some of President Musharraf’s key contributions to Pakistan. I would love to discuss many more of his contributions but for this I would have to write a book.

Economy

His economic revival of Pakistan was not only appreciated by Pakistanis but also gained him incredible amount of respect from international economists. Freeing Pakistan from foreign debt not only stabilised the economy and country but created huge amounts of foreign investment on an unprecedented scale never seen before in Pakistan leading to economic growth. His ability to create employment as well as controlling inflation made him popular amongst the masses.

Regardless of this President Musharraf never glorified himself nor did he say it was a one-man show for which only he should receive credit. He selected the best Pakistani minds, who could do handle the pressures of each job and work tirelessly for Pakistan. Even with all the success he did not settle and did not say he was content with his achievements, which on the grand scheme of things were absolutely huge. He was never going to be happy with Pakistan until it was recognised as a key economic player internationally. He was not going to rest until inequality was reduced and opportunities limitless. There are many critics of his economic policies, who state that he created an economic bubble that only lasted as long as he stayed in office.

Musharraf’s opponents imply he was some sort magician that had the ability to make economic growth disappear the minute he stood down from office, like turning off a switch. However in reality, studying his economic policies will reveal that the downturn in Pakistan’s economy in the post Musharraf era was due to the incompetence and corruption of those who took over. He very much created sustainable growth and development.
