What good is this education if these politicians then plunder the state's resources and incite disaffection amongst the masses?
I have studied in Oxford myself - believe me, the place does not have any magic about it that transforms a person into a benevolent ruler. There have been plenty of African dictators and child-murderers who studied at Oxford. Even Bugti studied at Oxford - what did he end up as?
Look at how successful the Chinese are - how many of their leaders went to Oxford?
Pakistanis should stop having this inferiority complex that Oxford/Harvard is superior. Politicians should be home-grown and should send their kids to Pakistani institutions.
Brother I am a Cambridge-grad myself and I do believe that we need more educated people in our parliament and government. Yes our politicians have flawed in the past but democracy I believe is THE ONLY way forward.
And I also believe that NS and PPP's top people like Aitezaz have matured now. Let's strengthen democratic institutions and judiciary in our country first and we shall inshallah reap the benefits soon. Self-serving military dictators are no viable alternative either.
2007 has been a truly forgettable year for Mush, so much blood-shed and chaos. I think it's the bloodiest year in our history
