Hi Andleeb
What do you suggest here in this regard? One direction that you have given is the sensibility of people. But as per my understanding WHAT people? And WHAT sensible approach that we may expect from a country where illiteracy is dominating and sane approach cannot be traced among poor illiterate folks. Democracy in my view is a terrible joke for a country like Pakistan where even for hundred years through this joke you won’t expect selection of a person known as a LEADER capable of sowing seeds for Renaissance in a true sense, isn’t it? Can you suggest any system other than Democracy or earlier/parallel rotten concepts of socialism and capitalism?
