@nikhil25

surely the current pakistani govt is awful but to make this a meaningful criticism of a particular party as opposed to the system/country in general, for each point what would’ve been your preferred course of action during the last 4 years?

further, would these actions have been:

a) feasible?
b) likely to have been taken by a different govt?
c) likely to have been effective remedies in this limited timeframe?

even if the answer to all three is yes (unlikely), have you even asked these questions?

You questions are very intelligent and thought provoking hence you got no reply. I will reply but with no answer though. It is hard to say what actions other governments will have taken.

The cost of living has increased in Pakistan and in the UK, where I live, over the last 10 years. As of 2007 things started to get worse with the onset of the global recession. Costs rose in Pakistan as globally and people started to blame Musharaf’s policies, even on this forum. Musharaf was forced to resign and the PPP won the election. If any party had any sense they would not have bothered to campaign for the 2008 election as very god decision making could only make things stable and not worse, the sort of decision makers Pakistan does not have.

Some things were out of their control, others not. Corruption, bad management would have only made a bad situation much worse.
