As all of us know that Pakistan’s position is becoming worse and worse in all Sectors, Our economy is not strong result of which we are getting Loan from IMF. Pakistan was not like this as it is, There is no doubt this is because of Corrupt govt. According to your point of view what are major reasons of Failure of Pakistan’s Politics ??
Re: What are Major Reasons of Failure of Pakistan's Politics
Only one reason. Frequent interference by military directly or indirectly since partition.
Re: What are Major Reasons of Failure of Pakistan’s Politics
No word without these
Someone has cleared it .
Re: What are Major Reasons of Failure of Pakistan's Politics
I view recent military interferences more as "The situation is totally out of control, so we have no choice but to take over". At least while I've been alive.
The problem is that Pakistan is being run by a few families that own A LOT of land coupled by widespread ignorance and illiteracy plus doesn't help when the maulvis in small masjids around the country are focusing on the wrong things in their sermons and missing the big picture of teaching people manners and how to be good to each other.
So like any other organization that is failing, problem is top down.
Re: What are Major Reasons of Failure of Pakistan's Politics
The other problem that is deeply rooted in our culture is our nepotism - something that we as families need to change. You can't reserve a seat of any sort of power for relatives just because they're relatives. That's not fair. People get educated, and they are smart, so they should be put in higher positions, where they are rewarded for doing good and smart things. A good business rewards it's good employees. When you start rewarding someone because they're someone's son or daughter, then it discourages everyone else, and no one is motivated. Hence, failing poorly run businesses as a norm. When you see a GOOD business in Pakistan, it's being terrorized by people like Altaf Hussain's mob antics just because that business doesn't belong to an Urdu-speaking person, OR it's terrorized by people like Zardari who want a percent cut from the contracts. Again, falls back to the fact that powerful landowners are the ones in power, because they can buy the votes. And there are foreign interests that keep these people in power, so even if you want to throw them out, you can't. They keep coming back.
Reward people for their talent, not who they're related to.
Get rid of nepotism
Get rid of feudalism
Bar feudals from running for office.
Only allow educated people into the government.
I can't think of one BRILLIANT economist that Pakistan has, honestly. Another huge problem.

Education is the other reason , not waderas .
This is fashion only . And going down in education again goes to the traitor dictators who ruled most of the time
Re: What are Major Reasons of Failure of Pakistan's Politics
No, the minister of education - that position has been repeatedly s***ted on for the past few decades, regardless of civilian vs. military rule.
One thing I've personally noticed as a person visiting Pak, is that when the military is in charge, there is more security, and because of better security, things are able to progress on their own. What people do not realize is that the economic machinery of Pakistan is not just the ships in Karachi port or the agricultural lands in Punjab. The PROBLEM is that we FAIL TO REALIZE our OWN POTENTIAL as Pakistanis. Down to the small time karighar in a bazaar who is diligently doing his job to get your wife her long-list of dreamy joras to show off at chai parties in defense. Every man and woman is part of the greater economy. You keep suppressing them with illiteracy and zero chance at education, and zero chance at social mobility, you will totally get RID of any ambition in the country.
It's like why socialism doesn't work. When people have no motivation that no matter how hard they work, things wont change, then they wont work hard.
That is why I have a chai stain on my favorite shalwaar kameez I purchased for way too much money from a bored aunty running a sham business called a "boutique".
People take no pride in their work anymore. So Pakistan, in the global economy, stands very low.
It's because guys like Zardari and Nawaz have been exchanging hands and running a garbage business called the Pakistani economy for the last 20 years, and filling their pockets.
What sort of country ruler is it that is the third largest investor in EUROPE?? But runs Pakistan?
Uhhhh...what?

We forced him to do business in Europe
We put him in jail and than forced him to exile , He is from a business family , it is his basic work .
And you support a man whom children are in UK and one day you will see about wealth there .
Re: What are Major Reasons of Failure of Pakistan's Politics
He should have stayed in jail or stayed in exile. There is a reason those things happened, it wasn't that Pakistanis got bored of their tea chai parade and did this insolence to him.
He's a *******.
Re: What are Major Reasons of Failure of Pakistan's Politics
politics is not failing. Politicians are most success full people in pak.
Re: What are Major Reasons of Failure of Pakistan's Politics
Politicians the biggest disaster for Pakistan. it's a miracle that Pak has come this far.

That is absolutely wrong and faulty analysis. Military has never allowed the cleansing process through successive impartial elections since partition. On the contrary military has taken over political process creating new demons frequently. Do you want to name them? Unless military assume subordinate role under civilian elected government, Pakistani politics will always be fkd up.
Re: What are Major Reasons of Failure of Pakistan's Politics
It would help if Pakistan had an efficient electronic system to keep track of people.
I think there is honestly merit in stamping some sort of code on everyone to keep track of who is who, because the criminals get away so easily all the frikkin time, beefing up security everywhere, so no one can run without getting his behind fired at.
Re: What are Major Reasons of Failure of Pakistan's Politics
imho:
lack of sincerity, ability and patriotism among the political elite. they are wholesale sellers of P{akistani interests.
it's so sad and surprising that in the last 60+ years, not a single Pakistani leader has emerged who had the best interests of Pakistan.
Re: What are Major Reasons of Failure of Pakistan's Politics
Pakistanis overall , and I dunno the reason for this, have a class complex. Although that's supposed to be a hindu thing and suprisingly, the hindu nation has come up to be much more equitable, a highly ISLAMIC idea to begin with, than Pakistan. Whereas Pakistan has held onto it's caste complex.
This manifests itself as a selfish behavior, where each family is in it for themselves.
They only want their kids to mate with like-minded, similar families in ethnicity and money.
They only want to surround themselves with similar family friends.
Blood is thicker than any sense of national patriotism. People in Pakistan will treat their friends and relatives in India or Afghanistan better than they treat their countrymen. The idea that you're a Pakistani first, doesn't come to people's minds.
Many believe they are muslim first, so they feel closer to an Arab mindset than they do to a Pakistani mindset. They wish they had been born in Saudi instead, I'm sure. Others wish they were Indian. I really don't think anyone sincerely appreciates being Pakistani anymore. We see a clear carelessness when people in our own country are dying like dogs or getting gang raped, or getting brutalized on the streets. Even people just watch, no one stops.
Things are really bad when you let a father beat the intestines out of his daughter for a love marriage in front of a court house, and no one tries to intervene.
Humanity at it's worst.
Re: What are Major Reasons of Failure of Pakistan's Politics
The major reasons for failure of Pakistani Politics are the same reasons for the failure of politics everywhere:
Lack of accountability
Diminished/Non-existent fear of Allah
And it doesn't help the fact that the system is set up in a way that there's no watcher to watch the watcher. Everyone's got their hands in the jar, and the light switch is deliberately broken so as not to be spotted red-handed. The ones that get caught, try to pass themselves off as saviors who were only pulling others' hands out.
As long as people are not held accountable including the head of state, expect the corruption to remain potent. As long as people place hopes in individuals, expect the problems to continue to exist. Don't replace individuals, repair the broken system that allows "non-certified parts" to become a part of the system and then cause clogs, and waste of resources.

1) In a nutshell, Corruption.
2) A lack of checks and balances in the existing system.

Re: What are Major Reasons of Failure of Pakistan's Politics
corruption, illiteracy, personal and business interests of the military as well as politicians, corruptest bureaucracy, incompetent and stupid feudal lords and land-mafia. When the country is run by few families, for the family, by the family, so u can expect this. the military thinks its the best in the world, we used to be proud of it, but after the recent karachi aftermath, we're left utterly disappointed. How the eff do u forget to save your own people from suffering??
I'm surprised why the imf and world banks, etc keep giving money to the govt, surely they must know these people have nothing, how will they ever recover their billions and billions of loans, yet they keep giving more and more. And yet this "loagon ka hajoom" never wakes up, they keep getting shafted again and again by everyone yet they do not utter a word of protest, they accept it all........kis kisam ki bay-hiss qaum/hajoom hai ye?

No. I disagree. That is what you call conflict of interest and that is what is exactly the case in Pakistan. And sadly, hinders any progress.
