Bhutto Coins: What on god’s holy land is next

And now the coin. This is going a bit over board with benazir-fobia. PP has got new “shaheed” for years to come and Pakistan’s money to waste. Do they even know how much money is needed just to change the names of existing cities, airports, parks, air programs etc? We dont even have coins with pictures of Allama Iqbal, Liaqat Ali Khan but now we have with the name of BB on it !

=====================================

Bhutto Coins: What on god’s holy land is next | Pro Pakistan

One of the leading problems with us is there are far too many self-claimed martyrs. Martyrdom has literally become the most easily available death. No matter what one is been doing throughout their life doesn’t matter, if your killed voila a martyr!. We also suffer from the ‘Bhutto- Fever’ , quite volatile and fatal one.

When renaming Liaqat Bagh, Rawalpindi General Hospital, Nawabshah and Islamabad airport wasn’t enough we have on our hands our very own personalized ‘Bhutto coins’. The death anniversary has already been announced as a ‘Public Holiday’. The government has announced to launch Bhutto coins:

Pakistan’s central bank will issue a special Benazir Bhutto coin to mark the first anniversary of the former prime minister’s assassination in a suicide attack last year in the garrison city of Rawalpindi.

Some 300,000 commemorative ten rupee (nine pence) coins have been minted and will be issued on 27 December, the date of her death. On one side, the coin bears a portrait of Ms Bhutto, in her trademark headscarf. Inscribed under the image in Urdu is the phrase, “Daughter of the East, the honorable martyr Benazir Bhutto”.

This will be the first time in the country’s history that the currency will display a face other than of the Founder. The series of gestures will continue for the coming years. Its a pitty really how such meaningless steps are being taken by the state.

This further goes on to demonstrate the state of ‘democracy’ in the country. If nothing else this new step surely assures a change for the local people, brace yourself for the-all-so-new tag line for beggars:

ALLAH kay naam pay bhutto de day ! :rotfl:

OMG, this is taking it too far! They are making bhutto an idol or something.

I think they should have all toiletries named after them as well. So atleast hum sub aaraam aur sukoon se to baith sakein gey

If Maulvi who hated Pakistan creation can have their solgan Itehad, Tanzeem aor Yaqeen-e-muhakam. Why cannot a party which love Pakistan and win election every time not have the thing the way they want.

Islami party cannot even get two percent of the vote in Pakistan. Pmln cannot win single seat out side it punjabi base.

That was the slogan of Jinnah....maulvis have nothing to do with it

^ 28th December 1947 in his address to the nation.

“We are going through fire: the sunshine has yet to come but I have no doubt that with Unity, Faith and Discipline we will not only remain the fifth largest state in the world but will compare with any nation of the world. Are you prepared to undergo the fire? You must make up your mind now."

Sure they won every election and decided to make Nawaz Sharif as their Prime Minister twice, any clues when PPP is renaming Pakistan?

BTW their love for Pakistan is obvious from the fact that Asif Zardari Bhutto is now their chief, someone who has long criminal record, they dumped many leaders with more credibility in favor of Zardari, sure PPP does love Pakistan.

If do not even know that Iman Ittehad Tanzeem was a slogan given by Mohammad Ali JInnah then you are not qualified to give any opinion about Pakistan. By the way are you really a Pakistani or just faking it

Re: Bhutto Coins: What on god’s holy land is next

lowest of the low! good for nothing now criminals on our national coins so far they have been only reserved for ultra high profiled national heroes who has support from all parties and all walks of life, that cant be said for BB.

compare the real Shaheeds for the nation, the Nishan-e-Haider holders... they didnt get such honours but hey this is just like "Nizam Sikka" who issued coins on his one day rule!!!

19

Personally I think that the national currency should only bear the face of the founder of the nation i.e. Jinnah as is common practice anywhere in the world

Having faces of other individuals (however deserving) on the coins and notes would just unnecessarily complicate matters
