Re: son of a typist
above comment was made by a leading ppp politician in today's wall street journal. unlike the lady politician in question, i am proud of the fact that pakistan has an army in which a son of a lowly immigrant clerk can progress through the ranks and even go on to head one of the largest armies of the world. comment also provides a good insight into the mindset of leading pakistani politicians and explains why army dominates the scene in pak and why awam does not come out on to the street when army kicks political butt.
Very good point.
