Re: Pakistan’s forex reserves exceed $16 billion
Bhai aab kiya kiya jayea. When good works are done, shaitan feels bad and with Shaitan many corrupts and thugs also start feeling bad :). No one remembers what bad is done by people who are bad but if good works are done by good people, bad people try to malign that with absurd news and their propaganda. Corrupts are paying billions to buy today’s free media and doing all sort of propaganda. People like me who gained because of country became prosperous are not paid to do propaganda but our incentive is fear of what would happen if those corrupts come back.
[For instance, because of the corrupt system of the past I had to move abroad because I got no chance in the country (unless I use safarish or bribe … that I prefer not to). If corrupts would be back, I might have to move a lot of my own investments from Pakistan before corrupts would eat them up.
My friends tell me that dont worry about corruption as that is way of life in Pakistan. Throw the haddi (rushwat) and make these dogs quite else they would bite].
Just today I heard NS on TV Bullshi**ing that Pakistan media and judiciary are not free under Musharraf, Judges are getting beaten up, no one can say anything and are scared of the dictator, Pakistanis are dying hungry and country is going bankrupt. There are no jobs or opportunities in the country. Blah Blah and Blah. Pakistanis are crying for NS return so how can he ignore the voice of people as he would die for them rather ignore them … so he is going back to save Pakistan. Aab iss jhootay choor ko kiya kahayin? NS and BB (and many of their paid goons) try to Bullshi* Pakistanis thinking that all Pakistanis are idiots so they can fool them and try to show that they are innocent … Maasuums

I don’t see any revolution coming. If returning of Nawaz Sharif is considered a revolution, then we are better off without such revolutions. I am a common civilian and I come from a single parent middle class family. I did my masters when Musharraf took over, I got the job and so did my three siblings without any sifarish and now I am doing PhD from the Netherlands, thanks to the government of Pakistan. My mother who is a government servant in 16 grade got a huge pay raise by the Musharraf government, my father-in-law who is a retired government servant got a good amount of raise in his pension and now he can support himself and his wife in a better and independent way. My husband got the job without sifarish and all of us are doing well and our standards of living are getting better day after day and I see the increasing standards of living of the people like me around me. What else does a common man want? I request the media not to add fuel to the fire. The media should not abuse its freedom. I don’t expect this at least from The News.

Just think that a major earthquake also came during Bhutto time (1974) and people forgotten that, rather don’t even know about that, because most news regarding that earth quake were suppressed. Most of the donations were stolen and many people in Government became rich (because there was no transparency at that time). It was just after OPEC world became rich. In today’s dollars OPEC world were richer than today and their commitment were lower as pouring of dollars just started because oil price shot up after 1973 Arab-Israel war.
Lot of aid, rather grants from OPEC world came to Pakistan, but went into black hole of those in power. Today even Saudi Arabia has 100s of billions in loan and Arab world comparatively are poor, thus aid or grants could not come that much).
Thus, one should also remember that there was another such major earthquake in Northern areas (28-12-1974) during Z A Bhutto time that killed thousands and destroyed many houses. Unfortunately Bhutto government suppressed the news and now very few know of that earthquake. This is difference between people’s government (present government) and Vedera government (Bhutto government :)).
[As there was no transparency in 1974 (as what we see now, and thus no one knows what aid came and where it gone during Bhutto time), it is claimed that lot of money that came as grant during that time related to earthquake went into Bhutto Swiss bank account].
