Re: tale of two nations - part ii
Although I don't like the harsh tone used for Pakistanis, the message is clear: Until we start respecting ourselves as a nation, we will not be taken seriously in the international arena.
Pakistan is running away from the main economic problems. The Chinese government has worked very hard to ensure employment and economic openness despite its autocratic nature.
I don't believe that we should be following any particular country in terms of development. We have to create policies in OUR national interest rather than the US, EU, Arabs etc.
i agree that we should follow our model and not copy either cheen or the u.k. what bothers me is that we swallow gora criticism when western governments dont say anything against saudi arabia, egypt or china. why is that pakistan is such a punching bag? waisay few years back, british govt said something unfavourable about malaysian government. next day malaysian govt cancceled the contract of british firm responsible for building k.l. airport. ultimately british govt had to get down on its keens and apologise. pakistanis otoh get down on their knees whenever they feel they have done something to displease goras.
