Its encouraging to see people are hopeful about the future. I dont mean to bring everyone down but lets face the reality. We are quick to blame our politicians, i.e. Nawaz is corrupt, Zardari is 10%, Altaf Hussain is Jahil, etc. Have you ever thought why is every politician target of our frustration after he/she has been in power, case in point, Benazir, Nawaz, Musharaf, Altaf, etc. May be because these people are a reflection of our society which is openly corrupt. Lets do some soul searching and ask ourself if we are put in a position of power, are we going to be any different than Zardari and Nawaz? Accountability starts with ourselves first, how many can honestly say they havent received/given bribes (while in Pakistan) to find a convenient shortcut rather than following proper procedure? I will go out on a limb and say 98% of people are corrupt by choise or by necessity in Pakistan. When a society is so corrupt and qualified people dont have the opportunity to equal opportunities, exactly that happens to the nation what is happening to us. There is no social justice. I might be in minority but I honestly dont see any bright future for Pakistan, I think it is a failed state and if we continue on the path we are on, only destruction and anarchy awaits us. If Zardari is our leader, there is no further discussion where we are headed (again Zardari is a reflection of the people). As the Late George Carlin would say we are CTD (circiling the drain). just my opinion and no I am neither a Raw agent nor an Indian, just a humble Pakistani. |
