I will reserve comment on this issue for the moment. I firmly believe we have enough on our plate and should not open newer fronts. What you are saying although plausible in common narrative has no SOLID PROOF to bacl it up. We are taught to listen to both sides before forming opinions. I would...
Elections will be massively rigged and result in more rioting and chaos. Unless and until an interim setup comes in and makes changes to ensure free and fair elections, acceptable to all, there will be no peace in Pakistan.

The problem remains that the army is being blackmailed from both sides. Pushed into a corner from PTI side and when they want to talk to PML N, they are told if this government falls we will block off Sindh, NWFP, And Punjab. .They are being pushed between a rock and a hard place.A
Again it is not helpful. The judiciary has worked given enough support. Most judges are either fearful for their or their families' lives or just do not want to get involved. We need to support them and with support will come empowerment. Structure needs to be supported rather than killing...
If is not a one liner. Firstly free and fair elections in Pakistan is itself a job-and a half. Secondly the real job starts afterwards. We saw IK faltering before he got going and showbaza has been pathetic. Momentum has been totally absent in his goverent -I call this anertia. It might stem...
Thank you for your post. I think as the literate people of our country it is/our responsibility to contribute towards its development. We are the leaders and we should lead and force others to think along lines. What I have thought of is nothing new but we see it in our lives in the West.

You canmot dismantle corruption unless you strengthen institutions. Strengthen institutions and these goons will disappear. People expect courts to adjudicate without any real power or protection. How is this even going to be possible? So think of solutions ahort of hanging people. Otherwise the...
A really good topic worth discussing.
In short.
A. Address the people of Pakistan and inform them with numbers and charts where the country is and what is required.
B. In the short term I agree we need to go to the IMF as China and Saudis have linked their aid to IMF certification
C. Ration...
Please enlighten me what kind of coal does India use for power generation before you call me a fool. I gather 55% or thereabouts power generation in India is via coal. More importantly how much coal do they import and from where? I think being a sovereign nation you can dictate the source of...
No disrespect meant but this is total lack of understanding of the dynamics of Pakistan and its politics. IK and Sharif/Zardari are chalk and cheese their interests vary and thrusts are indynamically opposite directions. It is like asking Kasmiri liberation party to ally with RSS. DONT MAKE...
Bhai
munna bhai to lagay huay hain. Jabhi to 12 bachay hain. The masses believe what their leaders telp them and the leaders tell them " mumlekat e khuda dad Pakistan is the land of the pure and nothing on earth can barm it". So everyone is sold on the idea of immortality not knowing that...
The problem with IK is that any confrontation will lead to chaos which he does not want. This is the very essence of the difference between him and the other leaders. Like you I think his jalsas will not have much of an effect on forcing the PMLN into elections. Coalitions in Pakistan as...
Well every bird changes its feathers once in a while so you are no different Mr Vcheng. I know you are a realist but perhaps there is a misconception of what our relative realities are. You think of elections next year and I see the country descending into chaos much becore this. You talk of...
Time for us to make a full thrust towards getting oil from Russia at 30% rebate. If someone blames us please bankruptcy and say if you can match the price we will buy from you. But you do need some balls to be able to do so and we have a bunch of scaredy cats leading us.

I dont know bhai. I have seen some parties where the uncles( I am still young by their standards) maneouvre themselves near the dining tables. They maybe on walkers but man are they quick when it comes to cornering that best boti of meat or chicken. I go to a lot of meeting locally and EU wide...
Vcheng. Somehow I am not as optimistic as you are. The problem remains our dependence on others. We need to curtail spending and rely more on internal production to compensate for exports. Oil import alone accounts for 20 billion plus a year. The fat turds of our society need to start using e...
Idiot alert!! What the fcuk do you know about Showbabza and his electric plants. The problem for your information is not lack of generation of power capacity but lack of oil and coal to power it. It is a testament to Showbaza's corruption that despite having ample reserves of coal in Thar( maybe...
They were told this both by him and Shaukat Tareen who gave them a briefing. I dont think, he said anything for people to get "seekh paa" over.
The fact is that balkanization of Pakistan is a stated aim of powers that be and IK has repeatedly said that a strong army has been the main hurdle...
I think the current financial woes will beg to differ with you. In a way the path that Pakistan has been led down has been one of spending more than one can afford, and dependence on foreign ingress of funds. There are no free lunches therefore funding invites commands which need to be fulfilled...
