Re: Government plan to divide 4 into 15 provinces
Its not a bad idea. Make each province into 2 smaller ones, perhaps Punjab into 3 (it has many big cities that can serve as focus points).
It would help the FC cricket structure too. 8-12 teams, based on province.
Do you like the idea of having more the 4 provinces?
Divide 4 into 15 provinces.
To stabilize and develop Pakistan government should consider creating smaller multi-ethnic based provinces. The four provinces, FATA, and northern area will be divided into 15 small provinces. Divide FATA into 3 smaller provinces. In reality this will make the federation more balanced and address the grievances of smaller provinces against Punjab. It will also elimination the dominance of MQM in Karachi and dominance of Jeay Sindh Qaumi Mahaz (JSQM) and PPP in Interior Sindh.
It is vital for Pakistan to have more smaller provinces, which can be governed by the local government, this will not only stabilize the country but also help develop faster. Each province will get it share of representation in federal government.
nope...
its in people not system.
do justice to what you have then move on to next level.
we somehow need to reach where others have taken ages and without doing much but just chit chat.
for a system to run you need intellect, hard work, and sincerity to what ever you do a sort of rare commodities here in pak otherwise keep on experimenting and one year this and next year that.
You can split a country to any number of provinces or renaming of them...but do let it decide by the local people by holding referenda...political parties or parliaments are not a true reflection to impose their decisions on this issue... :)
If quota system ON karachi can be decided WITHOUT ANY INPUT from Karachi then what can you say? :D
Remove landlord (zamidar,wadara,choudary) system.
That right there is the key.
I've felt for a long time that one of the biggest reasons behind the failure of democracy in Pakistan was the fact that the government never made any significant effort towards land reform (probably because the government has been dominated by the feudal elite since day 1, setting a vicious cycle into play that has yet to be broken).
Re: Government plan to divide 4 into 15 provinces
Pakistan me kuch nahin hona! At least, Pakistan is "IN FOR A RIDE" in the near to longterm before any improvements is made after chaos, looting and killings..
Re: Government plan to divide 4 into 15 provinces
so where is the source for this govt action plan?
Re: Government plan to divide 4 into 15 provinces
I say: Divide and rule!
Have a perfect competition type of thing where nobody is powerful enough to influence; yet collectively they can make a difference - thus promoting unity.
Pakistan is relatively small country. We don't need more province - that will not solve any issues - but will only make the matter more complicated.
there many nations which are much smaller than pakistan and have smaller provinces for purpose of good governance.
We need a new leader who can bring a revolution, remove corrupted leaders and politicians and promote new politician system, educated the masses, provide health care and social programs.
We need a leader who is combination of
Máo Zédōng
salahudeen ayubi
Hamza Yusuf Hanson
PAVEL AXELROD
Recep Tayyip Erdogan
Perviz Musharraf
^Most importantly to eliminate the jageerdars, all sitting in the assemblies, we need to snatch their lands away, promote equality and establish justice.

Bhai jaan, aap ne dawa to khai hay aaj? :p
Mao was a disaster in many cases. His cultural revolution and ideas of bring your pots and pans [in exchange for free food] so we can make missiles and whatnot actually ended up causing famine conditions! I wonder why aspects of Mao do you want in Pakistan?
Someone like mahathir or deng xioping would be good for pakistan. What are the economic credentials for salahuddin?

He meant "combinations", he didn't mean to say anyone of them will work.
Re: Government plan to divide 4 into 15 provinces
What 'combination' from Mao will work in Pakistan? Why not get Che guvera to contribute his "revolutionary behavior" to the mix instead?
Learn from Afghanistan bacha log. Learn from them. The dead state of Afghanistan can teach us many lessons. Only a small sampling is listed here.
Zillion provinces do not help in reducing extreme hatred between Pashtuns, Uzbeks, Tajiks and Hazaras.
Zillion provinces do not help in making the government more efficient. In fact Afghan government wouldn't even exist any longer if it was not for the crutches imported from USA.
Zillion provinces do not help end the uncouth tribalism, it extends the tribal disease.
Pashutns are the dominant race / ethnicity in Afghanistan, and see how trribly they have treated ethnic minorities during the golden but shortened era of Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan.
So fear Allah, and stop importing failed ideas from dead states.

Sorry, I forgot about Dr. Mahathir economic polices. I will add him into my list.

Feudalism is the root cause of Pakistan’s malaise. We need someone like Mao to get rid of it. It is tumor that is killing Pakistan.

Speaking like a hardcore socialist yara.
long live the socialism and down with Pakistan's free market. Bring back Bhutto's Islamic socialism. It will utterly destroy Pakistani economy just like it did back in the 70s.
Pakistani socialists are drinking the same ganja that was so popular but so futile in the 60s and 70s.
Re: Government plan to divide 4 into 15 provinces

Who is saying that the jagirs seized from the feudal classes should be taken over by the government? I have nothing against private enterprise...I just think you can't have a functioning democracy when most of your rural population lives as virtual slaves. Distribute the land among those who farm it.
As for Bhutto...his concept of "socialism" was laughable. Nationalize the urban industries to stick it to the immigrant urban elite, but leave the massive estates of the "native Pakistani" feudals intact? That isn't socialism, that's a recipe for economic downfall and ethnic warfare.

Pashtuns have always treated nuristanis and hazaras, just to mention a few, like crap even before the "islamic emirate of afghanistan" came into being in 1996 so I think it extends beyond our amir-ul-momineen wanna be mullah omar.
It was not zillion provinces, but warloridism [private armies like bugti] that doomed afghanistan! Feudalism is a similar curse of a stakeholder who is not loyal to the state but to this small patch of land.
In UK, they are run by districts and they are running fine not to mention the east coast of the US is full with tiny states unlike the bigger states of the west coast but still we have 48 provinces / states with a strong local govt system. Certainly, One Unit didn't work but I guess you are a bacha log yourself since you might not know about it!

Janab yara, if it walks like a socialist duck, and quacks like a duck, then it is a socialist. In the subcontinent, the whole concept of snatching lands was popularized by Nehruvian socialism.
Modern day Indians have "smartly" moved away from Nehruvian socialism and see how quickly they have progressed.
Socialism of any kind whether urban or rural have been proven disastrous in many many societies around the world. And yet "sadly" we have many Pakistanis parroting socialistic ideas.
