Re: Ahh the Riches of Pakistan
Sir,defence is Defence Housing Authority and it was made for the armed forces.Secondly you dont know the figures because in army mostly after retiremnet these guys are alloted land or property.They pay only the amount which is spent on construction if its a housing scheme.So for example when the navy housing scheme was planned at zamzama clifton karachi the price of 350 yards house for the allotees was 1.6million who are the retired navy officers and the market rate was around 5.5 million to 6 million for the public.
But mostly you will find civillians living in these societies and schemes beacuse a retired officer cant afford to live in posh localities.No one complains when these officers get allotmenst in places like malir .The law and order situation of the country is going fom bad to worse everyone wants to live in a place where there is safety and in these housing schemes civilians do find safety and security.
The most corrupt is the bureaucracy because no matter what party comes into power it wont effect their malpractices.The politicians get the chance when their party comes into power but some of them change their parties on the basis of the outcome of elections.mostly the army is not corrupt only from the “star level” the brigadiers and above are involved in corruption.
The only way out for the country is a revolution.Masses which are not part of any of this can change the system not anyone from the present establishmnet.
