More rubbish

"Pity the poor people of Pakistan and their Sisyphean struggle to gain access to jobs, justice, education and health services. For that they need wide-ranging systemic change. How can this be achieved when their choices at the ballot box are fundamentally compromised? They have the dispiriting and unpalatable choice of casting their vote for two main opposition candidates whose reputations are tarnished by corruption and self-interest, or a ruling party that is the malleable tool of a dictator who is backed by a military class intent on protecting its own interests. What the major players share is a lack of credibility. The danger is that this will extend to the election result itself. In a country where poverty is growing, lawlessness and sectarian differences are increasing and free and fair elections are virtually unknown, this poll may be no more than another exercise in disillusionment, which serves the interests of no one but extremists. "

More rubbish about a Pakistan, written by someone who has probably never even visited the country. Who cares about "Credibility" - Musharraf sahib is directly responsible for the progress that Pakistan has made, singlehandedly transforming Pakistan from an economic laggard into an engine of growth.

I do agree though, education is severely lacking in Pakistan for the masses - this issue needs to be addressed if Pakistan's future is to be bright. That was the main reason for India's success after all - they churn out more graduates than anywhere else in the world. And it could be said - they are running the world right now in one way or another.

India is the perfect role model for Pakistan.
