Well, after wishing him good luck on his nomination, I have few suggestions:-
- Keep the size of cabinet reasonable. Make all the members subject to an open accountability before including them in the cabinet and keep a close watch on their performance and use of government resources.
- Travel in Suzuki Mehran instead of BMWs and Mercedes. It is a shame when President, prime minister and officials travel all over the world on a begging spree but in the country use imported luxury cars to go to the airport You may convert Suzuki Mehran into a bullet proof vehicle to address your security concerns. Pakistan has already been manufacturing armored vehicles, so the technology is available in the country.
- If you still have to go on a begging mission due to unavoidable circumstances, please do not take 100 people with you. Where possible invite them to come to your country. Leaders of other countries would not mind if you tell them upfront that country was short of funds and you were cutting on expenses.
- Do not keep personal assets outside of the country. Publish information about personal assets and annual income tax returns of all of the political appointees and top bureaucrats every year.
- Make it mandatory for the officials to lead Friday prayers in their respective areas, if they are Muslims. The should stay in touch with the daily life of a common person. |
