president of Pakistan waiting for his flight at Karachi airport

[AZ1]

Nawaz and Zardari are both haraamkhor chor. Is that the benchmark we are using these days? If tomorrow the PRESIDENT OF PAKISTAN decides to travel on horse or donkey, would we celebrate?

This is a photo-op, simple as that.

Do you seriously believe that the President of Pakistan was just lying like that on some chairs, with no support staff or protocol staff with him, and some random person went up to him and took this pic?

and do you think such things will be hidden from media? or social media? that there was protocol and he is making fool. I don't think so

 

[Dubious]

As President of Pakistan he would have access to the VIP lounge. He would also have some support staff with him.

As President of Pakistan he had waved his right to some of the stuff...

Support staff prob took the pix

As President of Pakistan he would at least get a business class ticket - again, with access to the VIP lounge.

Depends if he got Business class..

The fact that he is not travelling by a private plane is in itself evidence that hes not wasting public money. I appreciate him for that. But pics like this are just cheap photo ops.

Fact requires sources?

I cant believe you guys fall for this BS. I myself care more about their performance than whether they stand in queue or sleep on seats.

I think you dont really have the ability to see far beyond yourself...When a president does the act of a simple man...It kind of shows the level of safety where being an everyday man is safe....

Right now, Pakistan is trying to show just how safe and secure we are!

 

[Peaceful Civilian]

He is naturally simple man. I really like his politics & seriousness on issues.

 

[M. Sarmad]

Pakistani Awam : if president spends billons on life style then he is harami and chor.
And if he lives like comon man then its cheap publicty stunt and staged.

You are the problem not politicians first fix yourself.

Blind followers of political parties (and political leaders) are the real problem.

Those leaders who actually live like a common man are respected by everyone; Malik Meraj Khalid for example.

But then there are those who make false show of simplicity to generate positive publicity and we need to call them out on it. We all know that Arif Alvi does not live like a common man. Khud ko hi dhoka dainay ka maqsad?

At least we wouldnt degrade one's efforts to help raise the name of my country!

No one is saying random person took the pix...No one is denying support staff would be there...What people here are happy is he can behave like the common man and is from us! He has the ability to come down to earth from the godly throne previous "leaders" have sat on!

"we" all dont ...please show us your mountain of proof because otherwise it is just the opposite of what blind followers do and that is nothing but...character assignation!

Please do not behave like india where you are satisfied on ego and read between lines which dont carry meanings! People in today's world need proof...present it with each claim so that "we all" can know what you so bravely proclaim under this sky!

Well, the previous president of Pakistan (during PMLN's tenure), Mr. Mamnoon Hussain, didn't sit on a godly throne either. He was a simple man. What are you on about?

He didnt that was good...He also wasnt very active...I think he was compared to that guy in india who rarely spoke

Cant have extreme lavish and extreme "simpleton" ....but yes, Mamnoon was ok...I never had any problems except he needed to speak up on few occasions and he didnt ...but lifestyle wise no one complained!

But I understand this is the 13th President...I am not just talking about his direct predecessor ...

He should travel at the least in business class, he is the PRESIDENT OF PAKISTAN for God sake. I'm not saying he did, I am saying I hope he did!

I think you dont really have the ability to see far beyond yourself...When a president does the act of a simple man...It kind of shows the level of safety where being an everyday man is safe....

Does the President travel Pakistan without security like a common man? Does he live in a house with no security like a common man? The answer is no. Because hes NOT a common man.

And do you actually believe that if something were to happen to him because he travelled without security (very possible), the people will feel safe?

This is the one point of yours that I totally disagree with. If you want to make the people feel safe, then make the country safe! Not risk your own life by travelling without security.

At least we wouldnt degrade one's efforts to help raise the name of my country!

If you think this raises the name of the country then you really are very unrealistic. This does NOTHING! But may be save some money.

No one is saying random person took the pix...No one is denying support staff would be there...What people here are happy is he can behave like the common man and is from us! He has the ability to come down to earth from the godly throne previous "leaders" have sat on!

He is ACTING like a common man. He is NOT a common man. He would have to go out of his way to do what he did here - and surprise surprise someone takes a pic and it gets leaked.

Hi,

Meraj Khalid was an associate of Z A Bhutto---so as he supported a corrupt and criminal leader---then by default he---ie---Meraj Khalid was corrupt and criminal himself---.

It is not good enough to say---I am not corrupt---but then you support and follow a corrupt leader---.

 

[Dubious]

I would appreciate it or even welcome if he didnt...We live in Pakistan and believe me it brings "thandak" to our hearts seeing elites come down from clouds!

In situation like Pakistan even a small gesture goes a long way!

Does the President travel Pakistan without security like a common man? Does he live in a house with no security like a common man? The answer is no. Because hes NOT a common man.

We are not saying he IS...we are saying he CAN TRY TO BE or relate to us on a human to human level!

And do you actually believe that if something were to happen to him because he travelled without security (very possible), the people will feel safe?

That is why he wont...But even if he managed and came unscratched we would be pleased!
He has security no one is stripping him of his rights...just limiting it as he did on his own without our demand!

This is the one point of yours that I totally disagree with. If you want to make the people feel safe, then make the country safe! Not risk your own life by travelling without security.

Do you know Cameroon was caught in the underground few times...Canadian PM also used public transports few time...Netherlands minister came on bike to work....Public stunts?

Howelse do you show the world we arent ruled by a money hungry monarchy?

If you think this raises the name of the country then you really are very unrealistic. This does NOTHING! But may be save some money.

It raises spirits...Maybe you need to be in Pakistan and actually investing in it to feel it!

He is ACTING like a common man. He is NOT a common man. He would have to go out of his way to do what he did here - and surprise surprise someone takes a pic and it gets leaked.

Leaked or not...it is a picture...to show he can last on steel chairs (even for a pix)...and there are plenty of pix of him using the normal lounge talking to travelers... How many can you fake?

while NS cant even last in B grade prison that has a bell boy on call, tv and fridge with home cooked meals (I wont even say B class is for the common man!)

Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto was not corrupt.

Pictures like these on the whatsapp and social media have created an army of baboons who cant even distinguish between right or wrong.I seriously pity my countrymen who have fallen prey to these gimmicks, and pray for all those who wrongly accuse others of all the ills and use foul language.

president of Pakistan waiting for his flight at Karachi airport

Is it a diaper on the floor. Well, he don't need to do this ..

 

[Curious_Guy]

This guy doesn't like protocol that i I know because last time when he was in Lahore my friend was on his medical cover & he refused to get out of airport till the protocol cars leave the vicinity.. but the administration kept the protocol cars in backup . the poor guy spent 24hrs in the ambulance waiting for president to leave because the police were reluctant to disband whole protocol (security people & others ) & kept them in police line

OK.

Let me give you a scenario. Imagine the President sitting on the footpath eating a bun kebab from a thaila in Karachi, with a childhood friend, surrounded by security.

See, this scenario I will find to be exactly what you want the airport scenario to be - something that shows he can be a commoner, real, and feel good. Wouldn't even matter who released the pic.

The airport one I dont find to be real. May be im just too cynical now. Or may be im wrong.
