Yes ISI acting as the last wall have saved Pakistan more than once. You world remember Black Water and Raymond Device network... where is it now? And the legendary jobs ISI did were not talked of, let alone be cherished. They have eliminated terrorism from Baluchistan, Fata, Karachi and Interrior punjab. And recent defeat of Indian design against CPEC, yet another medal over the chest we never saw. When you have such a shining organization to take benefit, use them to give birth to regional dominance divisions, wich could be separete from ISI and can look after India, Iran and Afghanistan in the region.
Our internal politics has hope in the form you mentioned above, but there in no plan to correct Afghanistan or treat Indian madness. Force alone is not enough, Pakistan got to use all means possible. In the tool kit of an engineer, there are hammer, scissors, pencils, robbers and tiny needles which he uses at will. Against these international players, specifically against Indian and Afghan aggression, we do not have a toolkit, no engineer behind and no plan. Establishment is mostly operating in "fire fighting mode" and when enemy builds are castle against you, all they do is neutralise them. But for a safer better central Asia, Pakistan needs to go aggressive on defence. Let political leadership correct internal issues but create establishment controlled regional domination divisions to take care of hostile countries. Concepts of Diplomatic missions and foreign office has been infertile for Pakistan.
@Awan68;
Its actually an illusion that Government has power think, act and decide. Whoever makes decision to take charge can represent people of Pakistan. Centrally controlled governments were an old concept which used to run countries like a pyramids. Now technology has enabled people to go asymmetrical and create multiple centres of control. If you think, this lunatic, the "electorally elected leader" Nawaz Sharif is nothing but a person who knows how to manipulate elections. He stole it, he would do it again, he can do it as many times he likes, but he is not a leader and can be replaced by a real leader, who doesn't need to take electoral pathway. Now who is this leader going to be?
If I decide today, that I will derive country's education policy and I commit myself, I will find 100 minded who could join hands to shape the country' future without taking electoral pathway or their funds.
Leadership is a decision, whoever decides it and commits to it, has it.
