Re: I don’t want my kids growing up in Pakistan…
I am not advocating actually physically going to Pakistan to do something. I also believe expats help Pakistanis more than residents. I only get irritated when we talk about troubles in the country as if some ‘third’ person did it all. It would be nice to accept that we and our elders are responsible for the mess the country is in either by indulging in crimes or by being silent about them. Yes, we all know WHAT is wrong with the country and pointing that our a million times would not make any difference. About time we move on from problems to solutions.
BTW, I only know one person in Pakistan who drinks. A few who smoke. None who gambles. None who ran over another person. None who was run over twice by same car. I believe I know quiet a few people there. Doesn’t mean its all good. Only means that a minority is exploiting a majority of people and about time that majority stops cribbing and does something about it.
Those problems started with the creation of Pakistan and got worse, just look at our national tv, you won’t find many decent people there these days. People have forgotten how to speak Urdu properly and someone here said something about teaching Urdu to British borns. lol
