I got quite sad and depressed after watching these pics.
What have we done to our Pakistan, it once used to be the jewel of the Indian Subcontinent, so vibrant, liberal, beautiful and progressive.
WHAT'S THE STATURE OF PAKISTAN now, all we witness is violence related events, and hate speech for Pakistan.even from the people who once used to be neutral.
literacy rate is worse, economy declining. non existent tourism,security threats.
This is utterly sad.

These pics show that Pakistan was once educated, but the educated lot left and Pakistan was left in the hands of Jagirdars, Wadairs and Patwaris.

I've often said that the Pakistanis of the older generation were some of the most erudite gentlefolk I've ever met.

communism kya koi lailaz bimari hae,,,,,jo uss se bacha,,,,aur bohot bara kaam kar diya,aur capitalist ban ke kya mila ab tak?

Zia turned Pakistan into a religious nut case society. Communists in Pakistan were not that strong. I doubt USSR would have invaded Pakistan. Pakistan could have become an ally of USSR which in turn would have made relations with India better. Trust me American aid to Pakistan breeds culture of corrupt Generals and Politicians. By siding with USSR we could have turn ourselves into a major industrial nation.
