Re: What is going on? Is Zardari about to resign?

LMAO! Inshallah he will be fine and come back to Pakistan and complete his full term. However the manner in which the US media is spreading the news does not make it sound kosher at all. And The cable at FP? Seriously? But then again the Pakistani in me smells conspiracy at nearly everything these days.

Re: What is going on? Is Zardari about to resign?

According to Omar Waraich(journalist covering time and independent) the prime minister was to address the nation at 1315 hrs but the government is still mulling on the decision, it's an irony that the prime minster didn't have the guts to address the nation after obl operation, Pns attack and the NATO attack, at least now he is thinking about it.

The international journalists are laughing at zardari for running out of Pakistan to have his treatment. It shows the quality of medical system they have provided to us and they themselves don't trust it.

If the address to nation is delaying for unknown reasons then there is more to it and it seems like there is some truth in the rumors posted in this thread... on 2nd thought, this govt have undisputed reputation of not handling anything in responsible manner, be it OBL case or as little as following a schedule for Address to nation... Maybe the Sherwani has not reached/pressed yet!!

Zardari suffers minor heart attack

Islamabad - Pakistani President Asif Ali Zardari had a minor heart attack and is undergoing treatment in a Dubai hospital, a source said on Wednesday, fuelling rumours he may resign.

Zardari’s office, however, said, he was in hospital for routine tests. It said a news web report, which triggered much of the speculation, was untrue.

Financial markets were unaffected by the rumours.

“President Asif Ali Zardari is in a Dubai hospital for medical tests and checkup as planned,” presidential spokesman Farhatullah Babar told Reuters.

“Reports in some sections of the media speculating on the president’s activities and engagements are speculative, imaginary and untrue.”

But a Pakistani source in Dubai familiar with the president’s condition told Reuters that Zardari had suffered a minor heart attack.

“Two days ago, he had chest pain” and decided to go to Dubai, the source said.

Six years ago, Zardari had also had a minor heart attack, the source said.

“Since then, he has been on medication.”

A Dubai-based member of Zardari’s Pakistan People’s Party, Mian Muneer Hans, said the president landed in Dubai around 7:30 p.m. on Tuesday.

“He walked to his car in the airport and was not on any ambulance,” said Hans, adding that he was accompanied by his doctor and petroleum minister Asim Hussain. Zardari was taken straight to the American Hospital in Dubai, said Hans.

“He’s taking rest in the hospital now. He may be there for two to three days,” he added.

The hospital’s chief executive officer Thomas Murray, contacted by Reuters, declined to comment on the reports.

Hans, however, said the medical visit was “a routine check for his heart.”

The rumours about his health and possible resignation swirled on Twitter and other social media.

“Some elements blew up this to create unrest in the country,” said Fauzia Wahab, a senior member of Zardari’s Pakistan People’s Party. “His visit to Dubai and having a medical check up is perfectly normal.”

Pakistan’s civilian government has been under extreme pressure in recent weeks following the resignation of its ambassador to Washington over an alleged memo to the Pentagon asking for help in forestalling a feared coup attempt in May.

Tension between the government and military have bedevilled the nuclear-armed South Asian country for most of its existence, with the military ruling the country for more than half of its 64-year history after a series of coups.

Relations with the United States have been rocked by a year of bust-ups despite some $20 billion in security and economic aid to Pakistan since 2001, much of it in the form of reimbursements for assistance in fighting militants.

First there was the jailing of a CIA contractor for shooting dead two Pakistanis in the city of Lahore. Then there was the secret US commando raid inside Pakistan that killed al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden, and then came US accusations that Pakistan was involved in attacks on American targets in Afghanistan.

It was also further rocked by a November 26 NATO strike on two Pakistani border posts that killed 24 soldiers, infuriating the country’s powerful military which also has a tense relationship with Zardari. - Reuters
