Cooking up numbers for fake pride and rewards are done by local authorities . They do it where ever they can. In general, communist countries do a lot of things for pride and grandure which the rest of the world doesn't.
Lol cinnese talking about bonded labor in another country. While India abolished bonded labor after independence and it is a crime to practice it, Chinese government maintains massive labor camps where political prisoners are worked to death.
Canada , US and other western countries did not have such a divided society to begin with. Their population is more egalitarian.They did not have the religious fundamentalism and the feudalism that Pakistan suffers from. They always had there armies and intelligence agencies under the civilian...
though very unlikely, Doordarshan sponsoring some peace program in Pakistan isn't that outrageous. Even for a conspiracy theory this is a rather boring one. As boring as watching doordarshan. It would have been spicier if it said RAW sponsored GEO.
None of this proves that chinese estimates are accurate. you cannot prove your government's honesty by comparing some random figures with another country.
It is a known fact that due to the pressure to perform or show some number relative to other competitors, Chinese officials often cook...
India has a much stronger idea of nationhood than Pakistan. In spite of a much more diverse population, I believe our leaders succeeded in creating a the idea of India. India has stronger civic institutions (like civil services) that compliment and act independent of the elected government ...
And the defensive mechanism kicks in. what does this have to do with India? any way, the massive problems that India faces have chances of getting solved eventually even under democracy ,though a benevolent dictatorship might fasten the process.But I don't see solutions for Pakistan's problem...
I would have suggested democracy if the Pakistani public was more literate and egalitarian. But for a tribal, illiterate society with serious challenges, you need a leader who can take tough decisions. I believe mushraff is lesser of the evils you got.
Pakistan will have a bright future when it is forced to reinvent itself. I believe it will happen when a benevolent dictator like Musharraf comes to power. He is only Pakistani leader who seems to have the balls to take on some of pakistan's toughest challenges..
I appreciate your thoughts. But all of these ideas are already being practiced. Indian movies are full of inter caste/ inter religious marriages. They try their best to show caste system as a social evil. So does Indian education system.
Reservation for inter caste children are also in...
In US, homophobes are usually seen as closet cases.
No one can change a straight man into gay by propaganda. I do not like indecency in the name of gay rights. But calling gay rights movement a propaganda and creating hysteria among general public is wrong.
Pakistan was a nation created by and for feudals. Muslim league was comprised solely of feudal land lords and erstwhile Muslim royals. Hence they wanted the Muslim princely states to be part of Pakistan.
India was socialist till the 90's and it still is to a great extent.
That will be the natural outcome ain't it :) ?
A lot of Tamil Nadu welfare programs are exploited and goods sold to neighboring states like Kerala.
That is some serious megalomania. Why do you think Bollywood gives a fuk about Pakistan? This movie is not even about Pakistan.
So much insecurity. Lol
