Re: What next for Pakistan?
Sad, once again for the people........
This has permanently confirmed my opinion that in Pakistan, ONLY military can make or break a Prime Minister....
I feel sorry for Nawaz Sharif-- a person who was having genuine intentions to improve relations with India.
** Why can't Pakistani people take on street like Nepal and show that it's people who will decide their fate -- not the military and America.**
No mass movement is expected to happen in Pakistan neither there is any chance in near future. It is not because Pakistanis are incapable of doing that, but the reason is that, most Pakistanis, silent majority as well as active one, are satisfied the way country is running and would never like to see corrupt politicians come to power again.
It is difficult to dislodge a military person in power. For a military person getting dislodged from power, there are three elements that need to work together. They are armed forces, elites that matters, and masses. Majority amongst all three are satisfied with President, though they may have some reservation about the political team with President.
It seems that President Musharraf with time is developing into a popular people’s leader, much popular then any people’s leader before.
Most Pakistanis have hope from him and believe that he can do things that no other person ever ruled or may rule Pakistan can do. For instance, if he desires, he has the capability, ability and means to take Jihadis, nationalists or corrupts to task, as he is bold and straight forward. He also has control over army as well as people's support.
He is also capable to work for the economical, social, and cultural development of the country more then any past political selfish rulers. On basis of records, one can expect good for the country from him then any past rulers.
Re: What next for Pakistan?
^ That's what my point is...I can see many of Pakistanis here consider Mushy as a popular leader by now rather than a military general.
So why not Musharraf forms a party and holds an election, thus allowing himself to be elected by people as a next Prime Minister.
As you said, he is a charismatic leader--Pakistan has never seen before who enjoys support in majority of people in Pakistan...so what's the problem in going democratic way??

Well, people make party to come to power, isn’t it? He has an effective party that got him to power, that is army :).
On the other hand, it is not popularity that can make a person start a party, it is money, that comes to a person from getting sponsorship or backing of corrupts and criminals. These corrupt and criminals later use the politicians to increase their influences and do more corruption and crime. Thus most politicians work for corrupts and criminals. If politician is mega rich and can spend their own money, they use politics to earn that money back, rather more, in only way, that is from corruption and crime.
Further, in democracy, one may want to work for the country but reality in third world country is that, one only works for themselves and those party people with them (most parties are parties of thugs and looters). That is obvious, as it take money to become influential and also to run for election that can cost millions. Thus, only corrupt and criminals come into politics and power.
**
Honest people have no chance or means to start a party and even if that person may start a party, there is very little chance that the party may mature enough without a lot of money, for that person to ever come into power. So, whatever that person does and however popular that person be, if that person want to serve the country, it is impossible in third world country. Thus, only corrupt person with the help of party supported by corrupts and criminals could ever come to power in third world country.**
On top of that, party in third world country when in power, instead of working for the country, many destroy the country as they have to take care of their political workers too, to provide them with jobs and perks, all at the cost of the country and other people that does not have any party to back them. That is the reason, many third world governments like to nationalise and love government control institutions to fill their party workers, giving no chance for anyone joining such institutions on merit (most join on safarish).
Such appointments in most cases become parasites for that institution and thus that institution becomes parasites for the finances and development of the country. If you know what happens in third world country, you would know that most appointments in government control institutions happen on political affiliations, and corruption becomes ripe. Under military rule and in institution working under military person, if not all, at least most of the appointment happens on merit, and corruption reduces.
Well, for third world country, democracy is way of corruption and keeping the country third world junk. India is an example, as India may claim to be biggest democracy, but in reality it is the biggest heap of junk in the world. It is such a country that can have bumper harvest and famine at the same time (that is historical fact, as it did happened in India in past). It is a country where many are billionaire while it has most of its population living in slums and inhumane poverty. This is democracy of third world countries, where corrupts and thugs rule and people suffer.
Believe me, give me plenty of money, number of gundas, immoral people to work for me, and fire power, and I can make you win election in any constituency of third world country.
Re: What next for Pakistan?
People do need to speak up more, but we need more people to speak up for true change than the people who are polarized and woud vote for some candidate because of ethnicity or religion
And we don't need states based on obscuranist ideologies...And we don't need armies whose slogan is "Jehad fi Sabil lah". Please also do something about objectve resolution in constitution.
Re: What next for Pakistan?

Re: What next for Pakistan?
Exactly.
If most Pakistani’s wanted Mush’s power hungry rule to continue, he would gladly hold free and fair elections.
Of course Mush supporters will come up with all kinds of imaginative excuses
