Thank God they have some sense to spend millions on some structure rather thn supplying them food worth trillions of rupees. We had been spending millions on education and other things in Afghanistan but that was invisible. i was always in favour of constructing building such as hospitals. now its great that we have some sense
 
.
This is a great step on letting people know that our leader too was for peace and prosperity
 
.
No point. They are pretty ungrateful when it comes to Pakistan. We are housing 4 million refugees who are making a lot of trouble in Pakistan and yet they say all sorts of crap about Pakistan. I don't see this changing anything really.

those who are speaking crap are a minority more close to the north and northern alliance and some hostile tribes..the silent majority is not visible but these projects will make them and pak efforts be priased

Pakistan has already pledged over $300 million in aid to Afghanistan and there've been sizeable donations.
We've played a great role in getting international aid for rebuilding the wartorn nation.
Somehow it never seems enough for Mr. Karzai. :disagree:

Brother you are BANG ON the money. These people deserve to be abondened and kicked by us Pakistani's. They are snakes.:sick: :GUNS:
 
.
I think we should give them money but should kick there afghan asses out of pakistan
 
.
I would like to ask my fellow Pakistanis not to spread hate, instead appreciate the common afghans as long as they mean no harm to Pakistan, and that is the case with most of them.

There is a huge media support from the eastern border of Pakistan in order to spread hate from Afghanistan against Pakistan so a rivalry is created among us, when we like friendship and continuely contribute towards Afghanistan as a friendly nation. After all we have fought together.

And look how we get rapaid Webby. If it wasn't for us they would be speaking Russian now!
Insead of seeking our help the chose to deal with our arch rival and allow her secret intelligence to abuse their soil against their own neighbor.
Sorry if I don't fully support your vision, I just don't trust them.

I second that NEO we are the ones who took care of so many afgans for such a long time but they have never aknowledged that.
