The fact that Pakistan’s enemies have stopped at nothing to destroy this country. The fact that it still exists despite all kinds of ill that has infected the society hence unprotected is very interesting. I love it because of the good people in it. Not just Pakistan but I love every country because of the good people in it. But Pakistan is my home that’s why. I know so many good people living in it.

This is the kind of answer I was looking for.
Ahh gol gappay in Pakistan were delicious :yummy: Fries were yummy too. Wahan k aalo ka taste he alag hai… Wahan se aaney k baad It took months to get used to the potatoes we get over here.
No aloo in biryani!? I thought lahori’s (punjab) use aloo and karachi walay (sindh) don’t :konfused:
​​​​​​What is Shinwari?
Is peshawri qahwa similar to arabic qahwa ?

Next question : Would you live in any other country if that meant a better life?

Pakistan is an awesome country, (provided you ignore the foaming at mouth western media because we do not “toe the line” anymore, The reason we stay in the news) As an international observer (And I tell you I have traveled extensively) Pakistan is constantly underestimated by its opposition. If we were able to handle USSR in our back yard a while ago and recently are tackling USA on one side while repeatedly engaged by India on the other side and dealing with internal terrorism all at the same time yet still coming out on top is impressive, not bad for a country in such a position.

Pakistan can become a tourist haven, When I was in Pak I loved the northern areas and the food! I dined at some of the best restaurants in Pak and I can tell you the cuisine is second to none, it was just amazing. People and their hospitality were just unbelievable.

But as an international observer, it is also my opinion that Pak is a failed state, Why? my observation below (western criteria of failed state index is purely politically motivated and must be ignored)

Rampant poverty
Health
Sanity
Infrastructure
Political Stability
Terrorism (Root cause USA and India)
Law and Order

I think Paks Per-Capita should have been $10K by now but we are 1/10[SUP]th[/SUP] of that, not a good picture.
