What The Year 2011 Has For Pakistan


Happy New Year To All My Pakistani and Foreign Brothers
It is now almost 3 years to be completed in power by the present government since 2008. About the present government of Asif Ali Zardari all the political leaders, media, and the opposition parties were rightly thinking that this government will have to face many challenges e.g. that of terrorism, sick economy, load shedding of electricity and gas, unemployment, poverty, high inflation rate, price-hike and the lost image of country abroad.
This government like all the previous ones blames the preceding government for all the troubles. But, what the present government did for the masses during three years?. The people are aware that government is not facing any opposition from the friendly opposition and it had vastly a free hand. And now the people are watching the most devastating situation and challenges in the country once again and they see that the condition is even worst.
Government is boosting of 18th, 19th amendments, reconciliation between political parties, Haqooq-e-Balochistan, success in controlling the terrorism (but the credit goes to army not the government) in South Waziristan and Swat But, what benefits will the amendments give to the common people. Situation of Baluchistan is more deteriorating and arresting the the Baloch leader, the grandson of Akbar Bugti may result in worsening the situation in Baluchistan.
However, floods in the last monsoon damaged properties, agricultural lands, crops on millions of acres, houses, buildings and left millions of people homeless. This natural calamity created a lot of hurdles for our ailing economy. Though foreign aid and aids with in the country compensated the condition a bit , but still many homeless are living in tents.
New year has started and government has given the new year's gift to Pakistanis in the form of increase in the prices of POL The fact is that there is no hope in the rectification of the matters. It seems that the inflation will increase, IMF has refused to release the installment of loan. Corruption will increase due to price hike and the corrupt people will also increase the rates.
Poor people of Pakistan will become poorest and the richer the richest.
