2. The problem with Pakistan is it still uses the old colonial provincial system. They should have broken the provices down into smaller units so politicians stop using this province card and larger provinces stop usupring the rights of smaller provinces.
   Had Afghanistan had 4 provinces based on its 4 main ethnicities today it would have been 4 different kingdoms. Had Pakistan gone through that it would not have survived.
   The leaders of pakistan need to realise that using an outdated Brityish system that was solely for their benefit is not in the interests of Pakistan or its people.

Agree with you completely on that. We should do away with that colonial relic. “Pakistanis” are so parochial, it is amazing how difficult it is for them to think beyond their own ethnic/provincial groups.

Zardari should also rename himself to Ghaddari now, about time!

Making the discussion short, Make it Pakhtunkha and include the tribal areas/agencies in it… names does not make big difference, development makes, change name or not, develop the area, have more schools/universities, Medical facilities, industries… save people from leaving their hometown and moving to other faraway cities and countries in search of proper jobs and sources of income…

Word. What the smart man said.
