Pakistan: surrounded by confusions and uncertainties

I am living outside Pakistan due to my job requirements. It's only the online resources that are keeping me updated about my country. Being a Pakistan,i I understand the context of so many events happening in Pakistan. I understand the context of ongoing instability in Northern regions of Pakistan, the situation in Baluchistan, the Afghanistan Factor, Political dimensions and their effects on general public. Despite having knowledge of the context in understanding the situation, I myself get confused sometime and it makes me think if I my evaluation of situation is wrong and whether the events are leading to a better Pakistan or worse. Having Said that, I wonder that what picture of Pakistan are being perceived by the people who are interested in international politics with concerns over so called war on terror; where no background information and context available to them. I am sure online resources are not helping Pakistan in depicting the situation even nearer to be satisfactory and building an image of being a near to failure state with no rule of law at all.

My question is, isn’t this a situation to be worried about by the leaders of Pakistan, specially the one in the power? What message are we giving to the rest of the world and what feedback is resulting? We have been even hearing the very dark and gloomy picture drawn by the western media that Pakistan would cease to be a state and part into three different countries. What else are they waiting to hear?

I would say that the time is now to respond and respect the general public opinion in Pakistan and sacrifice the lust of power and greed carried by the ruler of Pakistan. He has been promising the betterment in the situation in Pakistan for last 8 years and nothing seems to be working, we are still on a slide to the worst.

God save My Pakistan.

Imprisoned Hear me! Heed me! One more time!! Hear my whispers, hear my rhymes I fright! For I sense my words would soon fade If not uttered; If not heard; They shall perish forever, And never shall wake Artisted, I confess! Crafted and beautified, Indeed they are prettied And mystified But they are real, They are sincere. Prisoned in me for years. They are chested Amid agonizing noise Silent; they are dusted Hear them now For they are fading Free them! For they are long awaiting Take them For I am weary of the keep. In absolution, I want to finally sleep Hear me! Hear me! One last time. Muhammad Ali Monday July 18, 2016

The Agreement with Religious Elements for Sharia Law Implementation in Northern Areas of Pakistan

Well! What shall I say, when the agreement for Sharia Implementation in Northern Areas was reached between the N.W.F.P. Government and Mr. Sufi Muhammad, I was happy and totally in agreement with it. I thought that both the parties were sincere in this deal and the lasting peace could be achieved in troubled areas. But I was so wrong. Mr. Sufi Muhammad (I wouldn't call him Maulana as I don’t think he understands the very basics of Islam) started to think that the government has bowed down to his demands and he has a license to do whatever he wants and challenged the very foundations of Democratic Pakistan, plus he was not able to convince all factions of Taliban to lay down heir weapons. The activities f Taliban continued. Killing, extortion, kidnapping, suicide bombings are all the same, nothing has changed. Now some people are saying that they should be given time but I am with the view that the matter is so sensitive that Pakistan could lose and lose fast. The agreement should ...

Change 2013

Being a Pakistani, i should have been sure by now who to support in Election 2013 as the voting is hours away. However, i have my reasons to be undecided yet. I am all confused. No one seems to be with clean hands. The only one who has not been tried yet is IK and seems a reasonable choice in this confusion, however, his so called revolution and promises, by far, sound unrealistic and need only miracles for them to happen. 90 days for elimination of corruption, sounds very unlikely, given very deep roots of corruption and wrong doings in societal setup of Pakistan. I am also very much vary of the social media campaign of PTI, i am not sure if the most of the admins of all those Facebook pages and twiteers' supporting PTI are friends or foes. To me whatever is being said and depicted on social media reflects the very nature and kind of the followers PTI have and i must say, to me, it is, by far, not impressive, instead, it simply drives me away from the party it represent.  They say...
