You know it's the basics. I often go over the the 'infrastructure thread' and the marvelous projects of CPEC unfolding. The other day I saw a image of a Chinese stood in middle of road construction crew building the new M-5 motorway. Much as I was impressed but it annoyed me. The short young Chinese man who presumably was the engineer looked no older then 30 years old. Within 50 miles of that location there must be 10 million young Pakistani's. Why was it that we could not find one amongst them to do the same job? This is where education comes in. Pakistan needs to invest in education on a war footing so that in a generation our people are churning out cars, helicopters, computers, submarines, aircraft.
And yes building motorways and rail lines ..... on contract in foreign countries.
No doubt. By next September we can all give our provisional judgements.

Unfortunately the most extreme version of social darwinism has taken control in Pakistani society. I don't know how this can be reversed without a total and extreme purge of the system. Pakistan is heading towards an African like state or is already there. Look at Nigeria oil rich but poor and dirty. Pakistan is the same minus the resources. Sad sad reality .
