I think it is better if pakistan people fight for unification of Indian subcontinent into one country as it was before. It least we will have stability and economic growth. The nasty politicians divided the country for their politican purposes so that they can become Ministers. Now common people are paying the price.

We are already living under dark due to loadshedding. What politicians have delivered during these 5 years; nothing. They have done the legislation to suit for themselves. Nothing for the poor and general masses. Almost all our politicians are corrupt, tax evaders, fake degree holders; how do you think that we should trust them. NO my friend. These people should be behind the bar. What democracy you are talking about: one vote of illiterate in Badin or Muzaffargarh = to vote of Dr. AQ Khan or the Chief Justice of Pakistan. Is this the democracy. The feudal lords will purchase votes this time. Wrap up the system and tell them to go to jail and remain unemployed like others.

I was calculating how much money at stake is in this case Rs.220 billion. Do you know how many packets of Rs.1000 denomination it would come: 220,000 packets!!! They could not build any electricity generation plant, I believe with these bundles we can erect one.

The LAW is taking its own course. Now it would be test and trial of NAB to act impartially and handcuff all these criminal who looted our tax paid money and the same must be retrieved from them; their bank accounts and their properties must be seized and attached besides putting their and their families names on the ECL. What politicians have delivered in these 5 years; nothing, but they have filled their coffers with gold and $ for their future generations as well. What Constitution amendments have given to the common people; nothing. We have no electricity, no gas plus high cost of living. NOW its time for the Military or Technocrats rule which will be economical, effective and efficient. Let politicians book their seats to go to Dubai and UK. Under civil rule they in fact were dictators or worst than dictator.

About time politicians in India and Pakistan were held accountable for their actions against their job spec. A few big corrupt politicians need to be taken down as an axample for the rest. I think the political patronage that allows the same corrupt politicians to sit in the same seats time after time exists across the border in India in a bigger scale than Pakistan, but their patriatism and the economics have hidden that to an extent. I think the biggest form of discontent is not just corruption but the wealth gap that exists in Pak and India. There should be study done difining that gap and every goverment should actively make policies to reduce it. And voters should measure the success of the government by the reducytion in the wealth gap. Then, see things improve. I think this wealth gap is even bigger in India.

Justice is the only active part of government which is doing the right think. Outsiders can never be happy with Pakistan moving into positive direction. These are corrupt people who are being brought to justice. Whatever country you are from, it will never happen in your country, no matter how democratic nation you live in.
This is the beautify of Pakistan despite terrorism, corruption, no light, no gas, lawlessness; Supreme court is the last hope and blessing for Pakistan. You come and live in Pakistan with elite corrupts ruling over poor like masters ruling over slaves. It is not vengeance, it is Justice! Big difference.

If Raja Sahib resigns as Prime Minister may be its time to elect Hina Rabbani Khar as the Prime minister. At least she is well respected and perhaps capable of completing the the term.
